Analysis of Childish Gambino's 'Because the Internet' Digipak

Childish Gambino - Because the Internet

On the Digipak, the album cover does not have any text on it and this is unusual as it doesn't include his name, or the albums name. However C.G is quite a secretive artist and a lot of what he does has sublimable messages to. For example in his song '3005' it is about his loss of innocence and this is illustrated through the decaying bear. The album is called 'Because the Internet' and this is a part of the hidden message on the cover. He has  not included his name or album name because of how our society is so obsessed with the internet he believes people who will purchase his album already know who he is.
Th colour scheme of the digipak is pink and brown and more feminine then most male artists. The palm trees on his shirt have a feel of calm which links in with the general colour scheme. This album cover is a countertype of the rap genre as it is softly coloured and has a calming feel to it. There is synergy with the colours throughout the entire digipak.
The main image is of the artist, Childish Gambino, looking directly at the camera and at the audience. This gives the audience a sense of connection with the artist and more likely to purchase the album.
