The front cover of Usher's Confessions album features the artist wearing jewelry with a woman whispering in his ear, conveying the theme of confession. The border mimics a confession booth screen. The side image again places the artist in a confession booth with consistent lighting, colors, and border design. The back cover keeps these elements of consistency while displaying the track list above a topless Usher wearing jewelry to appeal to female fans.

2. Analysis – Front Cover Big title of the album on top, the gold title is consistent with the theme of gold. The jewelry supports the connotation of gold and royalty. The use of jewelry can be used in our music video or maybe the use of a consistent colour. His name is also in gold, although it isn’t in the exact same font but it is similar. The girls positioning in the background supports the name of the album, she Is whispering into his hear – confessing something to him. The artist displays no emotion, his face is neutral. The audience is attracted by the star which says ‘Special Edition’ The reader presumes that this album provides more than music, and this is confirmed by the features, posters, new tracks etc. This could be something I can incorporate in our digipak front cover. The border line is coated with a confession booth type screen, the design is similar to the screen in Christian confession booths and this supports the album name.
