Favourite Album Covers





Drake's Take Care Album Cover is my favourite album cover of all time because every slight thing on the front of the cover means something to the fans and the artist. It was really thought out well and taken care of in a unique way making it as personal as possible. 

First of all if you noticed the typography where the album title is written "Take Care" you can see it's written in a handwriting font, this is done here because it's a sort of signature from drake (the artist) that he recognises his album and approves and with the signature going on every cover the fans have something personal also. 

All the gold around in the cover from the jewelry to the candle holder, symbolizes that he's been made successful. Basically anyone who would've followed Drake from day one knows his rise to fame, therefore having all this expensive gold around is a symbolization of how he's finally rich and finally made it. Even the owl is a icon of Drake's OVO music group and it's in gold too. The colours black and gold are used so many times because like the music group OVO thats their official colours so it could be due to that. 

Him himself being in the middle, makes him seem like the man and the fact that he's looking down says a lot about how this album is probably emotional or it's the music that came straight out and defines him as an artist. It could even mean he's looking down because he's not fazed by the fame, money and power.
