- Album artwork in relation to song and genre
Lupe Fiasco’s Food and Liquors album cover uses different bright
colours and lights around the artist showing a superior position. This also
give a futuristic feel to the audience as he looks like he is on space, meaning
he is above everyone and the main focus, although he is surrounded by different
objects this suggests that he has different inspirations for his song. The
clothes he is wearing shows us that the artist is a stereotypical hip hop
artist. He is also holding a boom box whih suggests that he brings a retro/oldskool feel to his songs.
- Album in relation to lyrics of the song
The lyrics featured in the song mainly focus around the
idea of being famous and materialistic objects this is represented in the cover
as he is surrounded by different objects such as phones and a Nintendo DS
- Typography
I don’t think that this typography works well with the genre and album ocver. I think it was made to look futuristic but gives a Bollywood feel to the album cover when in actual fact they wanted to give a hip – hop/ futuristic style.
