Digipacks and Genres.

1) Pop - Pop music and digipacks often display the artist on the front cover in a good light, often looking good. Therefore they seem to be appealing to the consumers. In addition it often refers back to Andrew Goodwin's of the use of sex appeal to sell the music. An example is Rihanna's album cover for LOUD.

2) Rock - Often rock digipacks may show off the band themselves, as well as the use of dark colours/shades, or perhaps objects which refer to a certain theme, such as rose to resemble romance. (sometimes random stuff which is like concept theory) Therefore unlike pop digipacks their aim is not to show off the artist or use physical appearance to sell the music. An example is ACDC. 
 

3) Rap - Often rap digipacks will show the rapper themselves, sometimes posing, sometimes tey will try to look intimidating, and often they are topless to show off their physique. In addition many times the album covers will show and object, such as money, or perhaps a weapon. Good examples include 50 Cent and Eminem.



4) R&B - R&B digipacks are often seen as very gentle and slick. They're often related to themes within the music genre such as emotions within. A lot of these emotions are often love. An example is R Kelly's album 'Love letter'. 


5) EDM- Electric dance music digipacks are often quite stylish and simple, often because there's often not actually to much to resemble the music with images. Therefore some often include large words, object, or scenery. An example is Calvin Harris ablum '18 months'.
