Album covers


We are researching past album covers from the next men to use as inspiration for ours. So far we have only found one proper album cover, deducig that they have only realeased one album/mixtape.
They are quite  complex hip-hop partnership using complex and educated lyrics throughout their raps. Their album cover is quite the same, taking a picture of themselves or their colleagues in a recording studio, merging them together and then obscuring the view using colour editing. This is similar to their lyrics as they are taking an ordinary subject/ photograph and giving it a stylish appearance/sound. This is the album cover we have found from the next men:



When making our album cover for the project, we will look to follow similar conventions discussed above. Although we aim to make it individual so not copy the original.
