the second one catches my attention more

The second one is so cocky. Come on, why would you even come up with such a stupid idea.
Where has the artistry in music gone?

Both are dated and lame as shit, sorry lloyd, looks like a first album cover!!

No imagination and he looks like a cartoon insect.

@1 It might but it prevents me from buying it :-S Very corny

I prefer da 1st one, 2nd one looks a lil cheap.

I like the first one but I wish he was facing forward the 2nd one is werid. I love you Lloyd

lol.. tough crowd…. the second does catch my attention more…. they both are kind of dated

i like #1 better…i don’t get what the light in #2 is supposed to be..spotlight? but it just looks like the camera messed up to me…

Ouch you guys are mean. I like the second one. It makes you believe the hype.

The first one reminds me of something Usher did.

That second one is hot…..i haven’t seen a cover like that before. And like #1 said, it caught my attention.

the 1st one is more eye catching than the second album cover i hope this helps

again cover 1 is grown and sexy, cover 2 idk

Nar-Nutta! Try again…
~Shoot let me be in that mug…It’ll def sell then T~heehee

And me no likey his HAIR~! Looks dry..

Ok I’m done..

Carry on..LOL

How about NEITHER? Go back to the drawing board Lloyd and whoever you paid to come up with that “whole lotta whackness”! In this day and age…tsk tsk. That looks like a cover for a new artist coming out with their very first “trial” single, in one of those cardboard things…not a veteran with a whole album. I’m disappointed.

BOTH COVERS ARE KIND OF PLAIN AND BORING

I LOVE THE DIFFERENT LOOKS HE HAD IN THE VIDEO WITH LIL WAYNE…VERY ARTISTIC AND NEW FOR LLOYD…I WOULD PLAY WITH THAT!

WIT ALL THOSE LIGHTER THAN LIGHT SKINNED ARMS…TSK TSK. MAYBE IT’S ME BUT, IS THAT HIS FAN BASE?

2 is hot! i love the un overt 80s look and the fans hands, never seen that on album cover before

I like the first. The glare in the second need to be taken out. And if he was going to have fans reaching up to him he could at lease be on stage “performing” or something like that. But regardless of the album cover I’m loving what I’ve been hearing from his album and can’t wait to get it.

The Second One Would Be Hot If Lloyd Was Hot. Hes Not An Artist Id Want My Hands On. I Hate That Fake Spotlight. Both Cover Are Losers, Back To The Drawing Board. And I Hope He Steps His Performances Way Up, He Need To Work The Stage And Dance Better But I Do Like His Sexy Tone In His Speaking And Singing Voice, Its Very Relaxed And Player Playerish. Yes Playerish!

The first one Is the BEST, there is more room and space to put the album title and the lights at the top, soften the image and romantic suiting the album title. He looks like he’s reflecting although abit posey but yea.!!!!!! NO1# is more suitable to the title.
x

i like number 2…. it just caught my eye faster..

Lloyd, you are so cute! but you should have practiced making it sound less forced lol…it sounded like some Nickelodeon commercial…and I saw you @ Suntrust in ATL (west end) before, sexy!!! lol…(random)

LOL! This is also cute for concreteloop, that artists want US to pick it! Yall better go, CL! Guess yall have been the talk of the town in these companies PR meetings, huh?

I dont like either one, honestly…but If i had to choose - itd definitely be #1…

…in the second one, you cant hardly tell he has braids
…whats up with all the white peoples hands, clearly black ppl are goin to be the ones buying this album, and if you had to make the album “diverse” to appeal to a broader audience, use alot of different complexions, ones that range all over…
…that jacket is cute, but whats up with the V neck….i can understand fashion for the times but i think one of the main things that catch peoples eyes are timeless photos….this isnt a timeless photo
…#1 photo is too dark, and #2 is too light….can we get a more natural element to the picture?

ew
2 looks so “im trying so hard, like me please” -ish

how does 2 match the lessons in love concept, neither does 1 but it helps more

To Lloyd:

Neither really complements you or the tiltle of the album, please go back to the drawing board. But if your pressed for time and money at the moment I would advise you to go with the first one..

But I will by your album anyway because I’m impressed with your work lately.

Good Luck!

I prefer the first one. I think the title of the album makes more sense with the first one than the second one. I kind of feel there should be some type of connection between the title and the image of the album. I could not be convinced that the second one had anything to do with love. I do love you tho. lol.

#1 is sexy
& #2 reminds me of B2K’s Pandemonium album cover

people stop being so damn OPINIONATED for once and pick a damn cover! please!!! I choose the 2nd one……its creative…

BOTH ARE WACK!

he should cut his hair, cos in the second picture it looks like he has a one level cut/ceasar….that would look fresh on him….braids are kind of tired now IMO….very ‘04

Lloyd go with the 1st one PLEASE. It seems to fit the title of the album more. The 2nd one reminds me of the B2K Pandemonium album from 2002.

they don’t really fit the title of the album and like they said the second one is very cocky thats not a lesson in love and the first one is just there shoot ill design ur cover for u

LOL @ the comment about dry hair…. I like #2. I like the hands. # one looks like the latest R. Kelly album sans those ugly ass gold braids.

hated both

both look aight i think lloyd and his camp could come up with something better then the options presented, come on step the game up why do something so basic and simple son

both look aight i think lloyd and his camp could come up with something better then the options presented, come on step the game up why do something so basic and simple son

Both of them are wack as hell. Can he be more creative please? How about a different background and different wardobe between the two? Not much to choose from. These covers look like some Wal-Mart stuff!

option 1

#2 BABY, BUT EITHER WAY, I WILL STILL BUY IT.

i dont like any of them

#1 is way better its more relaxing and looks like an actual cd cover
as for # 2 seems so cliche its been done to many times

Both covers look like a 1980’s disco album cover.
Don’t know if this was intentional or not but either way they’re both wack as hell.
Maybe if it wasn’t Lloyd…who by the way is NOT hot…then they’d look better.
So until they can come up with someone else to put on the covers, my vote goes to NEITHER!

The 2nd one is too much.

I just got into the skin color of the arms. They tried that. He knows damn well that white girls do not buy his music. Mabey they’re Latino girls.

just swag by yourself on your cover boo boo. No need for all the girls grabbing at you. We already know whats up

i’ma have to go with number one. number 2 is lookin a bit too b2k pandemoniumish for me.

Can I just put my photoshop skills to work and design you a “NEW” Cover?

Holla at ya girl LLOYD hahaaaaaaaaaaaaa =]

Can we have a contest to meet Lloyd?
…A lil date…you know…nothing major LOL…

Square business.

Back to the drawing board.

The second one is cheap and wack

NEITHER. BOTH ARE BORING AND NOTHING SPECIAL AT ALL….

AWWW HE SO CUTE!

DONT STRESS YOURSELF TOO MUCH LLOYD, JUST PICK NUMBER 2!

actually the girls’ arms represent women of different races. i see like three dark-skinned chicks (one can be an indian chick, indians come in different shades just like us), there are probably some asian girls there and white girls and light-skinned latinas therefore you can’t tell the difference between shades. either way, stop saying those are all white girls when you can’t see their faces

and i say neither works. the first over the second but both kind of suck
lloyd is really sexy though so i wouldn’t mind any cover. besides i’m not buying his album anyway

That second one reminds me of that B2K PANDEMONIUM album cover from years ago hell naw imma go with the first one

GO LLOYD!!!!!!!!!!!

love both album covers and ur music!

I love number 1 & two

number 2 just give be a natural simiarity to B2k or Usher new album!

Lloyd , you’re cool for letting fans (CL readers specifically) vote for your album cover. With that said, honestly neither cover catches my eye. It would have been nice to see your face Since the title is “Lessons in Love”, maybe an image of you extending a rose to your audience or serenading them would have been more appropriate. These covers look aloof and distant.

He should have worn his hair out like in the “all around the world” video…..Now that would make me buy the CD. IDL his hair in these shots. Neither looks like a cover maybe inside pics.

i understand everybody is entitled to their own opinion but damn do ya’ll always have to be so harsh?im sure he expects some negativity ABOUT THE COVERS but calling him names and shit is not necessary.geezus

The front is ugly nd it looks corny

He wack as shit as is BOTH covers… why he rockin that lame 80s look in the video…. he’s late as shit yo!

Lloyd music doing right now, dud eshyt tight but the album covers..ro do they shyt homie.

the second one is just like b2k’s album cover from pandemonium…. but I still like it better than #1

…Why? Anyway, # 1 is slightly better (i think), I love his music so I’ll most likely buy it regardless….

OH DANG LLOYD WAS READIN THE REVIEWS?!?!?! LOOL EHHH GOOO LLOYD!!! I STILL LIKE UR LOVE SONGS I PICKED NUMBER #2!

I say number one just because the second pic have too many snowbunnies reaching for him. Where are all the black hands?

That was a brave thing to do asking people on CL to choose your album cover, some of the comments are so harsh! I have to be honest and say there wasn’t much to choose from, I expected at least 3 different looking covers but if I had to pick one it would be the 2nd one as it stands out a bit more. Not too keen on the type style used for the name lloyd it looks a bit too plain (sorry). However it’s what’s on the album that matters and l thing he is getting better as an artiste.

y iz der more wite ppl hands lol

The second one looks to cheap and lame. Lloyd, think hard and careful. What if MJ did a cover like that on thriller.

I Remember his first album that was niceeee, i think that the first picture us better than the secound one but it does not meet with the titile of the album but im lookin for ward to hearing if it is like the first DIana

Number two is the hottest. And I’ve always liked Lloyd. He is such a sweetheart with his little soft voice….lol.

THE SECOND ONE.
BECUZ THE FIRST ONE REMINDS ME OF THE LAST ALBUM.

It looks like a car is behind him about to run him over in the 2nd pic.

Um, let me open PhotoShop real quick…
