The album cover features a photo of John Legend sitting at a piano on an urban street, gazing to the side as he plays. The piano is the central motif, appearing on both the front and back covers against a backdrop of the city. Black is the dominant color, providing contrast for the white and gold text listing the artist, album and track details. The cover conveys that the music will feature the piano and fit John Legend's soul/R&B style, without explicitly stating the genre.

John Legend album cover analysis
1.
2.
3. The front cover for this album has a photo of the musician
sitting at his piano in what looks to be a urban street.
It features a wide angle long shot of him
He is wearing normal everyday clothes
The image is relevant to John Legend as it features him
playing the piano which he does on almost every track
The only prop is the piano in the image
He is sitting at the piano while gazing to the side which
represents him looking out on the world while he creates his
music
The background features a built up city street that looks like
it could be New York
The shot has been carefully arranged so that you can see the
artists face in the reflection of the piano cover which shows
he is the main focus
4. The cover features the name
of the artist and the name of
the album
The name of the artist is
larger than the name of the
album meaning the focus is
more on him as an artist.
The text is located in the
bottom right corner of the
cover which is unusual for a
CD cover but this allows for
the photograph to be fully
seen.
5. The main colours for the
cover are black white and
gold.
These are used for the font
on both sides of the cover.
Black is the dominant colour
of the CD cover because it is
the colour of the glossy piano
which takes up most of the
space
This black has been used as a
background for the text on
both sides of the cover as the
white and gold text really
stands out on it.
6. The back cover has the track list in a straight line down the
right hand side with the credits underneath it.
The edges have a gold border with the artists name and the
album title on it in black font.
The camera shot for the back cover is of the same piano that
the front cover features with the same background of the
city
These shots add continuity to the cover
7. You can tell from the cover that the artists
music features a piano
The cover fits with the soul/ R&B that John
Legend is known for but doesn’t tell you
exactly what genre it is
8. The only thing you can really say about the
audience from the cover is that they are
interested in piano driven music as this is the
main focus (apart from the artist of course)
You could say that the album is meant for
people who live in the city as that is where the
cover is set
9. The piano is the motif for John Legend on this
cover
It is featured on both sides of the album which
shows it importance to him as he isn’t even on
the back cover
10. Once again is the only album by John Legend
that features a piano on the cover and this is
important as it is the only album cover of his
that gives an idea as to what genre it fits into.
Its also the only cover that is set in a public
place, not in a studio on a photoshoot
