Title: Rap album covers
Post by: onewheelwizzard on 29 Oct 2008, 02:49: http://ffm713.skyrock.com/

This blog is basically nothing but obscure rap album covers. Some of them are pretty amazing. Here are some of my favorites ...

Lil Sin featuring C-Ordell - Frustrated by Death

Fila Phil - Tha Hustla Returns

NHC - Respect the Game (Boot Life)
(http://a1.img.v4.skyrock.net/a10/ffm713/pics/1964329043_small_1.jpg)

Magnolia Shorty - Monkey on tha Dick
(http://a1.img.v4.skyrock.net/a10/ffm713/pics/1888977687_small_1.jpg)

Geto Boys - Uncut Dope
(http://a1.img.v4.skyrock.net/a10/ffm713/pics/1874374305_small_1.jpg)

CMP - Da' Game

I feel like this thread could be like Something Awful's Fashion SWAT except it would never end.

Post by: Nodaisho on 29 Oct 2008, 22:23: So... any particular reason that all but two of the rap covers had dis-proportionately large objects in them? Is that the fashion for all the hep cats these days?

Post by: FireAarro on 30 Oct 2008, 01:15: Wow, I really like the Geto Boys one actually.

No way, is that a window in the side of the ludicrously oversized boot!? Nothing says HARDCORE GANGSTA like an Old Woman Who Lived in a Shoe reference.

Awesome Big Bear cover

I have this album on my computer, can mediafire it if anybody is interested. The actual album is pretty ordinary, but I keep it around just because the cover cracks me up every time.

Which is, if I recall, a callback to an old 2 Live Crew album cover.

I think that Crazy cover might be my favorite. And the best album name ever, as well.

And I'd listen to Seanessy just because JT Tha' Bigga Figga is on it.

Probably because all those half-naked women in his house keep blocking his view of Monday Night Football.
