Digipak idea

In terms of the digipak, I have come across an album work art for one of the single's called "Song Cry" where I love the concept of it. From the new album August Alsina's currently working on:

He's a 22 year old American singer, who just like Krept and Konan and Krept and Kapone, have come up from nothing and have made something of their lives.  He has gone through his own trials and tribulations in life, like dealing with his older brother be murdered and being a drug dealer himself. However, he has managed to turn his life around, in the right direction more or less. I particularly like this because it symbolises that greatness can occur. Which is shown through the rose growing through the ground. The use of rain, indicates the storm before the calm. Similar to Tupac's quote:
                                                            Rest in peace beautiful.

What I find appealing is the use of the editing of the colour. I love how the rose still has its colour. I feel as that approach can be applied to our digipak. Therefore, the globe in our digipak can be of colour with a glow surrounding, to indicate the greatness they are achieving. Whiles there's like a fade out of the other things on the album cover. Meaning that most the colour will consist on the globe and kind of fade out into the surrounding of a grey-ness just list that of August Alsina's album cover.
                                            
The way in which our digipak will differ from August will be as we don't have the name of the artists on the album cover. This is because August is still a up coming artist, whiles Kwabz and Kapone are well established and known, therefore, the need of their name to be on the album cover isn't really needed, as it will take up valuable space. Which is why we will only use the name of the album on the front cover. As it pretty much sums it all up.
