Which Photo is Better A or B? [Sir Mix-A-Lot Album Cover]

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!)

Here is photo A:

Here is photo B:

So which is better??

Thanks for your input.

    B for me more drama, lighting on the glass and hat spilling onto the table, model looks tough looks like he belongs behind a desk ina fur coat with a half naked chick as office art work

    I say photo “A”, it give a look that reminds me of his earlier look from the past. In photo “B” it could be anyone. In “A” it shows his personality.

    A is the better for me. The fur the girl is wearing in B looks out of place and it annoys me that the glass is ‘in his face’. A is straight to the point and ‘in your face’ (and not his). Both are great shots though.

    definitely A.

    Can’t really decide. I get why you posted it here.

    A is kinda too tight on the right for me. But in B the gut is kinda lost behind the glass. Take the Guy from A and put him in B. If that doesn’t count and I’d have to chose one I’d guess I’ll go with B.
