Doggfather had a simple yet whack cover...

I would say "Retaliation, Revenge, Getback" and "Aquemni" have nice covers...Also the "Marvine Gaye" one...

Post by: Now_Im_Not_Banned on May 28, 2001, 09:16:45 PM: Yea, but the cover didn't make up for the CD inside...

Post by: Top-Dogg2001 on May 28, 2001, 09:40:17 PM: I liked Makaveli's cover. That was hot. Can't forget about Aquemini and Atlins. I don't see anything special about the doggfather's cover. It's just a picture of snoop and it says doggfather. I like the scheme nas used to make all of his album covers.

Post by: DPGC2001 on May 28, 2001, 10:13:07 PM: Doggystyle, I also liked the Chronic too. Doggfather was one of the worst.

Post by: UltimateWarrior (Guest) on May 28, 2001, 10:37:28 PM: My favorite cover is Doggystyle i also like the one that was supposed to be on 2001 where the leaf was bigger and it was a futuristic looking.
Title: Re: Your Favourite Album Cover of all time
Post by: AlerG on May 28, 2001, 10:47:46 PM: i like the look of the dogg pound 2002 cover if that's it.

Title: Re: Your Favourite Album Cover of all time
Post by: Jay ay Beee on May 30, 2001, 03:02:39 PM: I just thought Doggfather was G'd up. He was looking at you saying "I've been thru so much shit. A murder case. My best friend dying." Gangsterous.

exactly, thats the whole point. it was Pac just giving it up for the west coast, or his symbol for 'war' like he sometimes said. whatever tho, the cover represents the whole album

it was excellent in its simplicity

You must like looking at snoop, if you like the doggfather's cover. Thats some gay shit.
Title: Re: Your Favourite Album Cover of all time
Post by: Sikotic™ on May 30, 2001, 08:52:41 PM: Ice Cube - The War Disc

That used to be one of my all-time favorites. But if any of y'all have heard of this band called Tool. The cover is clear and shit. Its awesome.

This Is Usually Named The Best Cover Ever...
Title: Re: Your Favourite Album Cover of all time
Post by: xz on May 31, 2001, 02:56:43 PM: I thought the alternate cover of stankonia was nice (the one with the lady who is on the disc.) also 2001, midnight marauders, low end theory, and this ain't hip hop but "bitches brew" is the greatest cover of all time. (and one of the greatest albums of all time as well.)

Post by: Jay ay Beee on May 31, 2001, 03:07:35 PM: Oh yeah Trauma I'm feeling that one!
My Dad has got this Beatles album greatest hits 1962-66
On one side there's a photo of them looking down at the camera from a balcony when they were hella young, just starting out - then you flip it - and they are in exactly the same pose but much older (Lennon has his beard) - It's pretty neat!

And I just like the Doggfather cause it's dark n shit and fits the album as a whole
Don't trip over my opinions!
