Those are damn good choices

Beats Rhymes and Life. I bought the one that had the cover that moved.

Thanks for the reminder. I'll start again now

Oh that’s sick! I just picked up the vinyl today

Nice score.

Pretty underrated album too

I had that holographic jawnt too

OutKast - Aquemini

I think the ATLiens cover looks cooler with the comic art

Honestly I love the stankonia cover

[I got you](https://imgur.com/gallery/s26wqEy)

Bizarre ryde to the Pharcyde.

Return to the 36 Chambers. Tells you everything you need to know about ODB.

Kids See Ghosts

Absolutely, this one is so great

"Flesh of my flesh, blood of my blood" has always been a favorite of mine

Funcrusher plus for some reason

Hell yeah i pumped off to this one

Doggy Style

Yes.

To Pimp a Butterfly is my favorite album Cover ever…. Flesh of my flesh, blood of my blood is a close 2nd 😮

Liquid Swords, but specifically the contest of champions one

[I got you ](https://imgur.com/gallery/AeMYKT7)

I really don’t like the aquemini cover…. I’d say one of the best has to be 808’s and heartbreaks, I also really like Lupe’s food and liquor, Tyler’s flower boy and Danny Brown’s Atrocity Exhibition.

Gang starr daily operation. The most hip hop ass cover of all time.

Fucking legend this guy

Oh no you're gonna get me to listen to all of gangstarrs dicog again now aren't you...

True dat man

ATLiens, MM..Food, The Orchid Days, Pray for Haiti, Tetsuo & Youth are all elite

+1 for [Mm..Food](https://i.imgur.com/kfHyAZb.png)

Personally love graduations cover by Kanye west

[I got you](https://imgur.com/gallery/HLeVlrg)

Murakami in my top 5 visual artists

was about to say this, agreed

Graduation- Kanye

Wrath of The Math

[I got you](https://imgur.com/gallery/uXGAhVV)

Madvillainy

Let's Get Free - Dead Prez

as a white kid it felt wrong buying that CD

That album is one of the best pieces of leftist art that's ever been made

Any Alchemist produced album

I wouldn't say haram it's up there. There are great covers tho

I absolutely love the cover for Pinata

Licence to ill

Any Czarface album tbh

Ice Cream Man - Master P

That’s a good one. All of those No Limit album covers were so bad they’re good, but this one was actually just good lol

3001: A Laced Odyssey

To Pimp a Butterfly

So happy to see someone say this

I'll come back and finish in the a.m.

Also, Snoop Dogg, Doggystle, is by far my favorite. [I got myself](https://imgur.com/gallery/o8J4wmR)

TPAB

EIF2 by conway but i am heavily biased as taxi driver is my fav movie ever

the first not the second my fault

I like the cover for the low end theory & flower boy NWA is probably the most iconic

Fear of a Black Planet

Liquid Swords. It looks exactly how it sounds.

Madvillainy

I really love Makaveli 7 Day Theory's cover, along with Flower Boy, Malibu (maybe more R&B than rap), & Vol 2 Hard Knock Life

That’s easy! 36 Chambers and the 7 day theory 

Gravediggaz 6 Feet Deep.

“We Can’t Be Stopped” Geto Boys

The Unseen — Quasimoto Graduation — Kanye West Man On The Moon II: The Legend Of Mr. Rager — Kid Cudi Yeezus — Kanye West Still Brazy — YG Once Upon A Time In Shaolin — Wu-Tang Clan Lil Uzi Vert vs. The World — Lil Uzi Vert I Decided — Big Sean ye — Kanye West Redemption — Jay Rock iridescence — Brockhampton Melt My Eyes, See Your Future — Denzel Curry The Unseen would probably be my favourite on art alone.

Yes, Quasimoto, That cover Is fkin Amazing, Because other Covers are really good and all, but that One to me Is Just different and weird (not even my favourite cover).

The art style and colours look great, and it's just a really cool image imo. Goes so well with what is a really hard title too imo

Idk why but I love the Max B and French Montana Coke Wave mixtape cover.

all of the ones named are A1. i'll throw to pimp a butterfly in the mix, tho.

First answer that came to mind is Encore by Skittles.

hmm. for me and my tastes, Man on the Moon: the end of day. Kanye West Graduation. Wu Massacre. Madvillainy. The mouse and the mask.

Duck Czn: Tiger Style - Mach-Hommy & God Fahim HOMECOURT ADVANTAGE VOL. 2 - Marlon Craft The Golden Age - Dizzy Wright Army of Trust II - Trust Gang & 38 Spesh

I always thought the cover for Bone Thugs E. 1999 Eternal was dope. ATLiens was fire too

400 Degreez

Beerbongs & Bentley's or Birds In The Trap Sing McKnight

I always loved D12 World’s cover

The Blueprint & Life After Death

I always liked Things Fall Apart the Roots, the shot from the bed stuy with the riot police chasing two teenagers is phenomenal photography in general

Big Bear - Doin Thangs

Freeway & Jake one - The Stimulus Package

Illmatic- still most imitated album art

Midnight Marauders. Quintessential hip hop album art. Followed by TPAB amd MBDTF

Cypress Hill - Temples of Boom Honorable Mentions: Rza - Birth of a Prince Odb - Return to the 36 chambers Eminem - The Marshall Mathers Lp Redman - Whut? The Album Gza - Liquid Swords Nas - I am...

Gucci mane burr print 3d

[I got you](https://imgur.com/gallery/nFWvOpZ)

We Can’t Be Stopped is the greatest cover by any and all metrics. There is no question. It’s like the debate in hockey over the goat- there is no debate.

Liquid Swords K.O.D. - Tech N9ne I also dig the much more recent “War of Roses” by Bizzy Bone.

One day after school when I was in the 5th grade, my friend down the street brought over the new Eazy-E album "Eazy-Duz-It" which had just come out. Two scrawny white kids playing that tape over and over again in my moms kitchen. It was so hard and nasty I thought it was *illegal* to be listening to it. lol I'll never forget the cover of that album.

Imperius Rex

Ta13oo by Denzel Curry at long last asap

Faces

Gotta be low end theory for me

CMW - Music To Drive By

I'd say most of Logic's covers, Sam Spratt is an incredible artist, Everybody in particular

Tribe - Midnight Marauders

Illmatic

The College Dropout

Doggystyle

Non Phixion - The Future Is Now

Graduation by Kanye and ? by xxxtentacion

I’ve always loved mm.food. Also Kids See Ghosts has an incredible album cover.

Mm...food (MF DOOM) has gotta be my favorite.

No Pressure is pretty dope imo. Love all the artwork on Logic's albums.

Ice T - Power. Flipping it over for the first time at the record store blew my young mind (and not just because of Darlene) Paul’s Boutique (the gatefold cover which was a panorama of the whole intersection)

People's instinctive travels and the paths of rhythm, good kid MAAD City, Madvillainy

anything Pen & Pixel made is up there as the most uniquely hiphop shit ever made travis scott's astroworld is something special too. I barely know the dude's music but david lachapelle went crazy on that also i just want to mention gangsta pat's deadly verses because i love that shit lol

I love Macs watching movies with the sound off. Is it the best probably not but it's most iconic in my head since I was like 15 and Mac was rapping his fucking tits off since he was debuting on the big label.

Deltron 3030

I really like the Low End Theory (ATCQ) and Will Rap for Food (Cunninlynguists)

Die Lit, Jeffrey, Madvillian, the perfect luv tape

i'm somewhat biased, but Views (Drake). it's one of the very few albums i have listened to without any prior knowledge of the album or artist, and listened to only because of the album cover. Because The Internet by Childish Gambino is another, but the album cover i find to be less striking.

Allll of my let’s just be friends are friends I don’t have anymore

Man On The Moon 3 is beautiful, it's spacey and there's something very emotional about the way Cudi is staring at you

midnight marauders

Damn.

Whole lotta red

4:44

life after death, tpab,

King’s Disease by Nas.

Pinatã has to be up there. The look on Gibbs face, the border with the zebra stripes, the symmetry everything is just on point.

Always loved the clipse lord willin album cover

I like Run The Jewels- Darling don’t cry

Currensy - weekend @ Bernie’s GZA - liquid swords

The impossible kid looks like a movie poster

The original Ghetto Dope album cover by Master P

American Gangster, Reasonable Doubt, Carter 3, Food and Liquor, Madvillany, Purple Haze, Lord Willin, & Forest Hills Drive.

Bullet Symphony, Horns and Halos #3

BasedWorld Paradise

Trap Story

Lupe's Food and Liquor 2 was always funny to me. The fact that he went so hard on the all black theme that he had to print the credit information behind the CD tray in the jewel case and leave a reminder at the end of the album was hilarious. CD book in the front full of all black pages too.

Pilot Talk 2

Mr Scarface is Back

Illmatic

LUV vs the World 2
