The Album Cover
« on: November 18, 2008, 04:01:13 PM »
In the days of compact disc, listeners were treated to an album booklet filled with dazzling artwork, liner notes, shout outs and song lyrics. Now that MP3s are the wave of the future, CDs and magnetic tapes are about to be labelled dinosaurs. So are the album covers.

What is your favorite album cover and why? This is a national thread, so dirty south and east coast covers are accepted in this west coast thread.

Bangin' On Wax - Bloods & Crips
Bullets Aint Got No Name Vol. 2 - Nipsey Hussle
Can you Feel Me - Dru Down
Eazy Duz It - Eazy-E
N.W.A and the Posse - N.W.A (My favorite, such a classic cover)
