Album Artwork Analysis - Devlin - 'Bud, Swear & Beers'
As my unsigned artist is a grime MC, I have decided to analyse the album cover of another famous grime MC - Devlin
Devlin himself is dressed very simple, and casual. He may have done this so he can relate to anyone, and not just a particular group of people. This suggests that his music may target everyone in a particular way. It also suggests that Devlin may not care so much about his appearance and more about his music as he is dressed very minimal and all in black.
He is wearing a Fred Perry polo top which is a British brand. This connotates that Devlin is a British MC
Him leaning against a brick wall suggests he may be from a poor working-class background. Therefore a working-class audience may enjoy Devlin's music and be able to relate with it.
'Bud, Sweat & Beers' has been written in a handwritten font. This looks as if Devlin has written the name of the album himself. This makes the Cd feel more personal to the purchaser. It also suggests that Devlin's lyrics may be quite serious and personal to him due to this.
