Krept and Konan - The Long Way Home
The central image on the cover of this album is the two artists either side of a long road with a burning car on the right hand side. this relates to their album as it is called 'The Long Way Home'. this image is the only image used throughout the digipak. The ratio of image to text is mainly image compared to minimal text.
We can also see the album name at the bottom of the image in red.
On the back of the album cover we have the track list with the title of the album again featured at the top. we have the same image in the background except the artists are not featured. the colour of the font is white for the song names and gold for the name of the featured artists. the album title is also in red again similarly to the the front cover. a colour scheme is maintained as the chain is the same colour as the font on the back.
The CD again has the same image that is seen throughout the album however it has small white text on the edge of the of the CD.
The colour scheme is maintained throughout the digipak, synergy is seen as the logo of their clothing line is seen on the road sign and on their chains. The album title is actually a song on the album (the long way home)
JME - Integrity
The cental image on the cover of this album is a close up of the artist face. this obviously promotes the artist and when people that know the genre see his face they'll know who it is. Similarly to the previous album, this is the only image used throughtout the album. the ratio of image to text is all image and no text on the album cover. the title of the album is not mentioned on the album cover.
On the back of the album is the tracklist which is in a gold font and it takes up the whole cover, the background of the album cover is in white. in a smaller font at the bottom we can see the list of featuring artists and producers.
I don't have an image of the CD but it is the same of the album cover (the face of the artist). The album name is actually a song on the album (integrity). synergy is used in the song 'Test Me' on the album as in the music video, the people in the background are wearing masks with the artists face on it similar to the album cover.
There is no institutional information found on the album. the colour scheme is white and gold which is also synergy, in the video for the song 'Work' the artist is standing in front of a white background for majority of the video.
Overall, both of these digipaks are similar in many ways as they are both from the same genre. however, because most artists from the grime genre are not big in terms of popularity, they tend to resort to other ways of promoting their music rather than a digipak as their budget isn't as big as artists from the pop genre for example.
