    Shit looks like it should be a Korn album.

    I'm pretty sure the same audience was buying both artists.

    Future graphic designers may try, but they will never top, I>the/I> touchstone:

    No doubt. And of course, the second of the twin pillars of rap album cover art is:



    ...wish I could find a bigger image.

    The one two punch....

    OK, so they are really New jack Swing. But there is some rapping on the LP.



    That's just all types of sad. The mall-photo backdrop, dudes pants up to his nipples, the look of "yay." mixed with "sashay". I could go on and on.

    I don't think albums available on cdbaby really count, but I'd like to extend a special lifetime achievement award to photoshop styings of the Bay Area's own Johnny Afro:

    Funny thing is. For a early 90's New jack Swing LP, surprisingly it's alright.

    But the cover has always made me think it must suck.

    this thread is a mish-mash of covers that really arent that bad but i guess arent "hip-hop" enough, album covers that were designed in the late 80s/90s and i think can be forgiven, and album covers that are SO Frickin' RETARDED I CANT EVEN BELIEVE ANYBODY WOULD WANT THEIR NAME ON THEM

    "comic book" style album covers are a bad look for rap albums

    have to disagree here. that stezo is wall worthy. but all your others were on point. couple more to add to the pot:
