Rihanna's CD covers influenced the document author's ideas for their own cover. Rihanna's covers typically use close-up portraits that show facial expressions. The makeup, style, and poses on Rihanna's covers are linked to the title of the album. The document author chose a softer, curvier font that matches the soft, effortless expression on the portrait of their talent, to accurately represent the slower, calmer nature of the song "Stay."
