[NV-ME]

I dont get the cover help.

when kelis rolled out, the only thing she left was that wedding dress.

 

[Hiphop Capo]

Nas 1st L in a while

last 2-3 albums were disappointing as fukk with garbage beat selection. i dont know how you guys are so hyped for this shyt. my expectations are low as fukk when it comes to nas albums. fl2 >

That's why he's the GOAT. I can't remember an album cover in recent memory having such dope symbolism.

You're right tho'...

I'm really pullin' for Nas this time around tho'. If this one falls short, it'll be the third time he's followed a provocative theme and cover with musical mediocrity. But I really wanna believe this dude got focused and bled some real shyt into this album, and for God's sake picked some top quality beats.

That's Kelis's green wedding dress. The only thing she left behind when she moved out.

Nas basically saying "fukk You". He taking all the so-called L's and using it to empower the music.


THE KING IS BACK

 

[THE 101]

Can someone explain this cover to me.

Here My Dear was an album Marvin Gaye recorded after his divorce. The judge actually made him record an album so his ex-wife would get the royalties from the album sales for her alimony.

Marv made a whole album pretty much shytting on his wife and chronicling his divorce.

It's a classic album, man. Must listen for all music fans.

how the king just flip Ls into Ws so easily

here's a life lesson i'm about to drop on you, if ever you should take a L or a variation of a L just put it out there, never act like you're afraid of it because that just makes you look worse. put it on display for everybody, laughing at it (a geniune laugh, not a forced fake one) works too. album cover is perfect

 

[JoelB]

I see. Is he being sarcastic because he looks depressed.

I dunno...thats why I dont like this as the cover for the album. All his interviews he's been on some positive, happy, cheerful type vibe...then he names the album Life Is Good yet the cover is representing a painful moment in his life and his facial expression doesnt convey the message that life is in fact good.

Clever, but I dont think it fits.

Nas, Jay, Cam and probably Kanye are the only rappers that still make me a little hyped for leading up to their album which is rare due to the way everything is now.
