Wow, hip hop album design has come a long way. Check out Salt 'n Pepa looking extremely ghetto.

Damn, Pepa looks like Biz Markie with a wig on. Nobody beats the Biz, nobody beats the Biz.

Yeah, and what's Salt doing? Picking something out of Pepa's gold front?

Wow..

Although we could probably find some recent southern releases that are fairly similar..

(which is not meant as a diss, it is arguably very smart to use "ghetto" production values, it IDs you as an artist who's built a homegrown following on your own instead of coming up thru the major label machine)

No more comments! Either someone has violated Godwin's Law, I'm tired of the discussion or, most likely, the ten-week window has closed. You can, however, contact me through email.
