You may have already caught one of the two previous posts. If not, simply prepare yourself for some of the illest cover artwork released in the hip-hop spectrum.
Edan-Beauty And The Beat
For once anyway, you can judge a book by it's cover. Beauty And The Beat is apt to cause musical dyslexia, yet it still flows together in a beautifully esoteric way. One of those Pitchfork albums for intellecutals, nahmean? Fuck that low-brow bullshit, nothing stimulates the mind like an cover engulfed with dozens of cutouts of random black men.
Aim-Means Of Production
Aim often chooses oft-kilter images as his artwork, that bear only a small relation to the title of his opuses. It's dope to think that dukes probably found this image in some oft-forgotten place, and now it adorns Means Of Production.
Gravediggaz-Six Feet Deep
This is that gully album cover that the Wu always lacked. Six Feet Deep just screams 'fuck ya moms'.
Theory Hazit-Lord Fire
I can't say I'm too big a fan of Theory Hazit's, but his Ohmega Watts commissioned album art is remarkably good. Words can't speak for the illness above.
EPMD-Strictly Business
There ain't shit to criticize on this cover. Erick & Parrish sittin' in the studio, about to make some dollars, what's fuckin' with that?
