Album Cover Analysis & Research - Travie Mccoy

 

With looking at the album cover of Travie Mccoy, who is also considered to produce indie rock music, his album differs from The Script’s album, as the cover is based upon music instruments, such as the base and is also shaped into a parachute. There is an image of a “cartoon man” within the foreground who is attached to the parachute and is landing with the music attached to him. When looking at this different messages can be conveyed, in my opinion when I first took a look at this cover it appears that the little “cartoon man” is bringing down the music with him, and it is showing that music is given by god? The parachute is attached to a CD player, showing that music means everything to the person and should mean everything to the world. The background image of the sky is presented dark and black and white, portraying an uncomfortable atmosphere however the colours from the instruments and also the artists name allow the CD cover to appear more eye catching and unique. With using this style it allows the CD cover to appear more stylistic and different. The dress style of the little “cartoon man” is very RnB style, as he is wearing pink sneakers and a pink cap, with jeans and a jacket. This could have been done to represent that it maybe Travie Mccoy himself.
