My Album Title & Cover Has Been Decided!

Re: My Album Title & Cover Has Been Decided!

What did you want that said "rap"? A pic of him smiling with a grill?

ROTFLOLOLOLOL!!!! I want something harder...like, I don't know...a requiem is dirges for the dead, right? I would say a solo dead tree to capture the dead AND the way he feels (as expressed in another thread weeks ago), but, U2 has already done that. I would say a graveyard with fog, but, that would possibly be disrespectful AND, not attract the right audience. ...What about a couple, male & female, dressed as angels on the cover. GOOD looking people. Kinda sexified, though. Ugh. Everything about that title brings "Goth" into my head. It TOTALLY works as rap, but, I'm just not conveying it well. What about blurred shades of grey on the album with black, "Requiem"? Vague, mysterious, dark/moody, not girly.

I dont think what he has now is girly.

I made one with a similar type image though...

Re: My Album Title & Cover Has Been Decided!

Nothing about it says "rap". The fonts do not convey 18 year old male, they convey, respectively, maxi pad with wings commercial & Cirque du Soleil. The image looks new age compelation album. What are in the "E"s? Bells? That's kind of cool. I'd say butch it up a bit, BUT, if you're happy, then nevermind.

Nothing about it says rap? Perfect.

I don't need to be like every other rapper, and have my music, or even my album cover, be something you've seen before. My approach is different. The cover is different. Works for me.

And yes, requiem is a song or hymn composed at the memorial of a deceased person. I don't need to add graveyards or angels. The way it is, is perfect, at least for me. That's all that matters. By the way, it's not the cover that you should really care for. It's the music inside.

Re: My Album Title & Cover Has Been Decided!

why should his album cover follow that criteria if it conflicts with how he wants it to look like? The Artist comes before the genre.
The fonts and the setting reflect his attitudes and feelings behind that album, so I'm all for it.

Correct. You're a smart man.

Just checking. VERY good.

Re: My Album Title & Cover Has Been Decided!

Darn... and I had found an image that said "rap" a little better too.






Seriously though... I'm glad things are coming along so nicely for you One-Way.

No no... I just know what it means to be an artist.

Anyhow, I'm glad too that you're gonna finally put this album out. Where can we hear the tracks?

Siggie.org?? Care to explain?

In a few months, I'll start releasing a few tracks. I hate how it's taking so much time, but I can't rush it.
