Dizzee is representing the youth of today as this is the stereotypical attire for youth. The album cover represents how he is trying to make himself standout from every other artist and also album covers from different genres.

Dizzee is positioned in the middle of the album cover to show that he is important also that he is the solo artist. So he stands alone. The text is positioned on the left side of the cover to show that he is far from right.

The colours used for the album cover is to make him stand out it. The yellow is used to show that light will be shinned upon the genre also it contrasts with the black. This shows that the artist is like a bee symbolising why the cover is black and yellow.

The black male teenager is the artist Dizzee Rascal we can see that because he is positioned in the middle of the cover to show he is important. He is also wearing stereotypical clothing for teenagers this represents the target audience he is aiming the album at.

The tracksuit is in all black is representing the death he wants to inflict on the industry of other genres that will be defeated by grime. The “Nike” trainers are shown because it represents him making his mark on in the industry wearing non stereotypical shoes for other genres and the “Nike” brand is successful in its field of the industry, meaning he will be successful in the his chosen industry.

A black teenage male is seen wearing a Nike tracksuit and Air Max 95’. As well he is wearing Nike golfing gloves. The background colour is yellow with a line of black.

The album cover shows the isolation that the genre Grime has from the music industry. Only genres like Pop, Rock, Rnb and Rap were acknowledged but Grime was not.

The target audience for this album cover was teenagers. This is able to see as Dizzee is wearing stereotypical clothing for young teenagers at that time. There is only one colour on the cover for the background this is able to grab the target audiences attention.

At the time of release the only other grime album that was out there was Wiley’ “Treddin on ice”. The conventions so far was for the artist to look isolated from the audience because of the genre. As well as them wearing “hoodlum” clothing. The artist is positioned in the middle of the cover its stereotypical.

The booklet in the “Boy In Da Corner” case has the same image of Dizzee from the front cover. This represents that instead of using different images all the time he is trying to make sure the audience understands that he is trying to get his point across by using one picture instead of numerous.

Dizzee is centred in the middle of the image because it shows that the booklet revolves around him.

It is conventional for an artist to be on the booklet inside the case, this is conventional in the rap/hip hop genre.

The connotation for the booklet is no words are used just the image to show that he is trying to make himself standout and just use one picture. Dizzee is sat down in a “Nike” tracksuit and Air Max 95’.

The genre is grime you are able to see this by the secluded Dizzee Rascal standing out and being alone.

The colours used are yellow, black and white. These are the same colours used on the font cover to show that he’ different.

The CD is yellow to show that his CD will stand out from others because the genre is shunned upon by the music industry. The font is in big black writing to show that just like the graffiti he is something frowned upon like teenagers and he brings attention to himself usually not for a good cause. The silhouette is used to show what he looks like and stands like but the audience is not able to see his face because just like the image on the front cover he tries to blend in with other hoodlums and is mysterious also the police are not able to arrest someone if their face is not seen.

The CD represents the genre trying to be bolder than others. It also represents the start of Grime becoming a genre that started of underground being recognised as an genre that should have the CD’S looking professional like other recognised genre CD’S.

Everything is positioned on the top of the disc so that whoever opens the case is able to see the title, image and the artist’s name its eye catching.

Dizzee Rascal’ name is in a big black font, the album title is in white and a small font is used for the record labels who he is signed too. Also an silhouette of Dizzee is shown this may be his own trademark logo.

The genre is Grime the audience is able to see this by the font and the silhouette of a “hoodlum” teenager.

Stereotypical conventions for a grime CD would be an image of the artist the title and the record label this CD has followed the Grime stereotypes. As the only other mainstream Grime Album was Wiley’ this CD could be compared to that and underground albums.

The target audience for the CD is youth you can tell that by the colours used, font and image it appeals to teenagers.

The back cover represents the generation that the artist is trying to target and show light on them by using bright colours such as yellow.

The track listing is positioned on the left hand side just like the text on the front. On the right hand side rotated 90 degrees is the barcode and labels supporting the artist.

The colours used on the back cover is yellow, black and white. All these colours are simple and on the same page make some areas stand out.

The font used on the back case looks like graffiti writing. The reason that this font has been used is because it shows that just like the streets Dizzee is street and bold like the font. The back cover is yellow to show that he is standing out from the rest just like the front cover.

A black graffiti type font has been used and the background is yellow. There is grey to separate the artist name from the track listing. A white section is used to show the artist name and barcodes plus the labels that are associated with them.

From the back cover you can tell that the genre has something to do with rap as the genre did not have stereotypes during the period this album was released it could only be compared to hip hop and rap albums.

The target audience for this cover is teenagers the audience can see this by the font used which a stereotypical teenager would be attracted to read. Also the cover is eye catching for the target audience.

Conventions for a grime back cover would be from rap so the font would be simple and the colours would be black and white. There are no conventions for a grime back cover.
