THE ALBUM COVERS ACTUALLY FIT THE CD?..LIKE WHEN YOU SAW THE COVER AND INSIDE ART AND U COULD PRETTY MUCH TELL WHAT THE VIBE OF THE MUSIC WAS GONNA BE LIKE..AND THAN YOU LISTENED TO IT AND IT JUST MATCHED?

A FEW EXAMPLES IMO OF ALBUMS THAT COVER MATCHED THE MUSIC

BROTHA LYNCH-SEASON OF DA SICCNESS..DAMN NEAR PERFECT...24 DEEP...FIT REAL GOOD

E-40-IN A MAJOR WAY

XRAIDED-PSYCHO ACTIVE AND XORCIST..

MAC DRE-YOUNG BLACK BROTHA....STUPID DOO DOO DUMB

DR DRE-THE CHRONIC

SNOOP-DOGGYSTYLE

NOW ADAYS..I DONT KNOW I COULD JUST BE TRIPPIN IT JUST SEEMS LIKE THE COVERS DONT REALLY MATCH THE MUSIC.....

JUST A TOPIC THAT POPPED UP..IM HIGH AND BUMPIN SOME CLASSIC SHIT

^^ naw your trippin...get the fuck outta here..that cover is a great depiction of the sound..darkness with lynch walkin away from his grave...

this aint about quality of the album covers and how much fuckin creative juice was poured into it..its about the music and cover matching..

Nope, sorry you taking offense to such a trivial matter as my opinion on an albums cover, but shit was wack... you know what, now that I really think about it, the album wasnt even that great, there are three hard ass tracks and thats it. So I guess the wack cover does fit the lackluster album.

takin offense? nope..u read it in the wrong context.."get the fuck outta here" was meant in "you gotta be bullshittin me"..

your entitled to your opinion but i must say its quite the retarted opinion..3 good tracks on sods? wow...just wow...and i like how now u are attacking the album and cover to somehow get at me? lol relaaaaax

See what I mean by taking offense... it never was my intention to "get at you", but if thats how you see it, so be it.

Lemme guess though, you probably hate "Loaded" huh? To me, its one of the top 5 albums out of Bay/Sac region, so much better than "Season"... and that too had a wack ass cover!

yeah you on point with this......back then when mc's made albums they had a certain subject that they felt they had to express...now it seems alot of rappers just make albums 4 money & put a album name that just sounds koo...& so the art usually goes with tha tittle... 4 example when i cop'd that new mobb deep, by look'n at tha tittle & cover i thought they was gonna take it back to sum str8 gangsta shit...but tha art just didnt reflect what tha album was exactly.......
