A while back I had Grammy Award Winner, Sir Mix-A-lot on chasejarvisLIVE. The guy is smart – dropped some pretty serious knowledge on the show [here’s the re-watch if you missed it].
At the end of the show, I shot the cover for his upcoming album, live, online. Here are the results.
The lead one that shows his face is my fav, but there’s plenty of debate, because the other shot is tough and mysterious. I’ll resist the temptation to make any real case for one or the other, and I’ll let this is a straight up survey – which photo do you like better A (top) or B (bottom)? (please answer in the post, not via other social channels so we don’t have to chase your feedback – thx!)
Thanks for your input.

A is the better cover, B is better for the inside flap
+1 Ben Sassani
A for the same reason.
PS: but B i awesome too 🙂
On photo B I don’t see details very well (on the hands, and glass), at first sight, glass / hands / face, are confusing.
I prefer A, where there’s more light, and we see more details.
B is my vote!
Now A might be the “better” photo but for his audience/fans photo B is absolutely perfect.
A for me. you can’t tell who’s in the picture on the second one. First one, you know its Mix-A-Lot.
