Frequently asked questions
What's the best AI for creating an album cover?
Midjourney produces the most artistic and detailed renders, highly prized for album art. Leonardo AI offers good style control, and Ideogram is most reliable for embedding readable text directly in the image.
Can I write the album title directly on the generated image?
Yes, with Ideogram, which handles text in images very well. With other tools, it's safer to add the text later in Canva.
