This image is of a cover of an audio recording, and the copyright for it is most likely owned by either the publisher of the album or the artist(s) which produced the recording or cover artwork in question. It is believed that the use of low-resolution images of such covers

solely to illustrate the audio recording in question,
on the English-language Wikipedia, hosted on servers in the United States by the non-profit Wikimedia Foundation,

qualifies as fair use under United States copyright law. Any other uses of this image, on Wikipedia or elsewhere, may be copyright infringement. See Wikipedia:Non-free content for more information.

To the uploader: please add a detailed fair use rationale for each use, as described on Wikipedia:Non-free use rationale guideline, as well as the source of the work and copyright information. For an example fair use rationale, see here.

Non-free / fair use media rationale for Rapture (album)
Description	Cover for the album Rapture by Anita Baker.
Source	Derived from a scan of the CD/album cover. Creator of this digital version immaterial as the copyright in all equivalent images is still held by either the record company or the artist. Claimed as fair use regardless.
Article	Rapture (album)
Portion used	Entire front cover, but does not include back or inside of original artwork
Low resolution?	Only sufficient resolution as necessary to identify and illustrate the style of artwork is used for the article; insufficient quality to be used for piracy.
Purpose of use	Illustrates the appearance of the album and identifies it by recognized features.
Replaceable?	No free equivalent can equal this image (any would be a derivative of this artwork)
Other information	Image in this form is already widely distributed to identify the album as part of catalogs and reviews, so usage in this context does not devalue the original work.
