Each of these artists are solo pop singers. The similarities of all these digipaks is of how focused each of the covers are on the artists, which gives the impression that their record companies may believe that selling their clients isn't only based on their talent but also based on their appearance, as they are all flawless and not particularly revealing any personality in their cover art, whereas more indie of artists go for more artistic and individual looks. 'Britney Spears' for example has a lot less talent than artists such as 'Stevie Wonder', whereas because of her flawless look, controversial lifestyle and typical pop image has gained her more success and fans who praise her for not only her talent but also on the way she is presented.
Stevie Wonder is a a famous soul singer jazz artist who's vibrant digipak's reflect his colourful voice. This album's text, layout and colour is a clear representative of the time of the 1960's. Often, nowadays, you do not see many jazz artists with such a vast amount of colour, and the swirls that are surrounding Wonder in this picture also represents the crazy and wild era of the 60's!. The contrast of colours with the text is also quite dated. Overall this is quite a 'groovy' album cover, which gives the audience a clear idea of the decade that this album was aimed at. The colours and the fact that Wonder is also smiling on the digipak shows the album may be quite up beats - feel good summer tunes!
