The Best & Worst Rap Album Covers (TIER LIST)

[@e-o-o]

Baby G.O.A.T is a masterpiece m. Not even Picasso could make such a beautiful work of art. It’s not just an album cover it’s something comparable to works like the Mona Lisa and all of Banksy’s work combined

[@writh2656]

Picasso has been very quiet since that cover was shown ong

[@Edtism]

Anybody could make the Mona Lisa, but Leonardo Davinci could never make Baby G.O.A.T...

[@elenasayshi]

it literally took me years to see eminem facepalming in the cover of revival

[@gschmarri2014]

Tetsuo and youth and dmiz covers are underrated imo, they fit the projects very well and contain interesting symbolism. The fact Lupe painted them himself is the cherry on top

[@judeslater4981]

I didn't know he painted them himself, thats so sick but it doesn't totally surprise me given how talented that dude is

[@bobbytarantino3552]

Sam spratt and logic have created some of my favourite album art of all time. In my opinion their work is only rivalled by Kanye and possibly Tyler who offer a bit more variety across their discographies

[@maximilian_gate]

Not surprised that Honestly Nevermind by drake would be the only entry in the S tier

[@themaddestvillain-g4q]

It’s the album cover ever

[@dabs.47]

Definitely one of the albums of the decade

[@GigaGorilla348]

It has the quality of a meme that’s been reposted over and over every day since 2005

[@danielsmokesmids]

@nick name how lmao... usually I'd agree but it looks like bladee cover art, not generic drake shit. I hate the album but think the covers very good.

[@bigdraco2390]

massive is the song of the year

[@banjo5867]

We need to see an episode ranking every Gucci mane album cover

[@johnwerner69]

Exactly my words!

[@MrCrazyCUENTAOFICIAL]

Exactly.

[@meda3791]

Logic has amazing album covers. I know Confessions of A Dangerous Mind wasn’t a great album from him but it’s my favorite album cover from him

[@gashacybin]

i cant wait for cdtv to bear witness to the masterpiece that is dr doooms first come first served album cover. its simply the greatest artwork ever crafted by a human being. it feels like glimpsing into a world we were not supposed to see

[@consolas2514]

If we get a pt2, we need Cuban Lynx on there. Hardest album cover of all time. The reds and yellows really give the aggressive vibe that Rae and Ghost can bring on tracks like Guillotine (swordz) and the like

[@boejudden9011]

Def my favorite album out of the whole Wu discography, but that cover is ASS

[@consolas2514]

@@boejudden9011 wym? I love the harsh colour aesthetic, it makes it feel like it's going to be an aggressive album, which it is, and I think Rae and Ghosts placement on the cover fits perfectly in the style. Sure something like 456 might've fit the lyrical themes better but honestly Cuban Lynx is probably my favourite album cover of all time

[@Del_003]

The Plugs I Met from Benny the Butcher is one my favorite covers. Without even listening to any songs you can already tell it's about to be a solid project.

[@darkcraftertheking4377]

I think relapse DESERVES S tier. The absolute detail that went in. But yeah a part 2 would be dope

[@droga6927]

CDTV, you should definitely make a video about the most underrated/greatest Eminem album RELAPSE

[@writh2656]

Thanks for incluiding the No Pressure one. I have it as my PC wallpaper and it still looks amazing

[@themaddestvillain-g4q]

I’m happy to see CDTV put NAV’s cover arts in the S tier. His album covers are goated just like his music.

[@YungBuckTheLabrat]

Some of my favourite album covers are from Trippie redd, I just love that art style on albums like Lifes a Trip, Trip at Knight and ALLTY3. Neon shark is also pretty cool imo Would be cool to see you discuss them in part 2.

[@YungBuckTheLabrat]

Savage mode 2 has such an old school look to it, but with a modern twist, I don't really know how else to explain it. Its cool though as the cover reflects the sound of the album imo, songs like many men and steppin on.... have a very old school feel and sound to em, but also has the modern mumble rap vibe with the way that 21 slurs his ways through the beats, yes this is probably the clearest he's ever rapped but I feel like that vibe is still there. Its a great album with a great fuckin cover.

[@trashhuman3977]

Bro imagine putting 6 months of research into creating artwork for an album as mid as Everybody by Logic

[@dunk2g]

How could you rank album covers without mentioning Viper? He is the godfather of all album covers

[@freeindialegionenjoyer1999]

millions of cobras and vipers but only one Vipah in da jungle

[@elenasayshi]

if you ever do a second one of these, make sure to include a "unrankable" tier

[@namonai]

I NEVER NOTICED THE FACEPALM IN REVIVAL 💀💀💀

[@Kingshumba2k]

Bro hoooow HAAHAHA

[@shoreZ]

it took me years to see it

[@atharv.aakira]

caught that everything, everywhere all at once reference

[@Kmad03]

NEED A PART 2 🔥 The disrespect to Tyler the Creator tho 😭 went through all of Navs albums but skipped one of Tylers best covers

[@Ryan-qv2gk]

I didn't realize the Relapse cover was a bunch of pills... Oopsy

[@Kushncorinthian]

Feel like there was alot of missed potential with this list, so much so felt I needed to comment lol. Def need a sequel

[@Starzoh]

Okay this definitely needs to be a series and in the next one add a "???" tier where there just so much going on your brain can't even process where to rank the cover

[@halkitchen1838]

Sam Spratt made the 3 best album covers of 2020 with No Pressure, Man on the Moon 3 and Modus Vivendi

[@buckdeluck]

Def man on the moon 1 is up there, prolly one of my favorite pieces of art

[@tobyc7375]

you should do a vinyl Cover tier list. be cool to see vinyl art compared to the album covers

[@matthewporter5718]

some trippie redd ones could be good for this, there’s a pretty wide range in his covers and a lot to choose from

[@greenfroppy212]

I definitely agree with all your Eminem takes in terms of album covers except I think SSLP’s cover is a S for me but A is still very good

[@drezz8k]

next time PLEASE do a tierlist of ALL gucci mane album covers on streaming services‼️

[@YungBuckTheLabrat]

For the new nav album I honestly think the album cover is very cool, but I do agree that it dosn't fit navs sound, but despite that I still like the art style.

[@dominioneno4241]

Do this video but with Gucci manes album covers

[@zsmrszn8401]

never thought id hear the words “Nav is looking awfully submissive and breedable” come out of someones mouth. I wish I hadn’t.

[@thatgamerguy3057]

Could the no pressure cover being the under pressure basement torn apart be because it’s logic now that he’s... blown up?

[@AshenFates]

No cap I think ur spot on wit this cuz I saw a expanded version of the cover and it had alot of things from the original UP cover

[@Gididjj]

We need you to rate Sematary’s album covers

[@nonamenevermore]

Or basically any other Haunted Mound album cover lmao

[@dopeiguana5032]

All S

[@johnnyjoestarirl]

Crazy how the noti for this vid popped up when I just saw the new Cudi album cover 😭😭 I’m sure the album will be good but that cover is not it for me

[@daveh8447]

Good call on Liquid Swords brother that was a dope depiction of Marvel and Wu-Tang.

[@cafepesto5048]

Evermore the art of duality by the underachievers is one of my favorite covers

[@sazzi9]

Maybe Viper covers for next video? Great video as always mate

[@CyberHangman]

You should see the cover for Dr. Doom's "First Come First Served". Kool Keith was inspired by all the crazy Cash Money covers to make a cover of his own that is even more ridiculous. I know of no other album cover where somebody serves a rat burger

[@nerdsville2299]

we need an updated eminem discography ranking

[@Νικόλαος1665]

Relapse and sslp album covers are really good

[@AshenFates]

Logic doesn't make the best music but man his album covers are fucking amazing

[@jordancorley828]

Great video, this needs a pt 2

[@geraldatrichome]

You gotta do breakfast by Gucci mane it's beautiful

[@FeelGoodeIncMusic]

Gotta have Donda in part 2

[@jeromeb715]

You absolutely need to include the new upcoming Lil Baby album cover which is damn fantastic

[@cynicalip]

15:42 Is this a reference to Everything Everywhere All at Once?

[@reyrey.ak-47]

2:53 why?

[@khalewren2734]

Liquid swords has such a fucking good album cover.

[@Josh-pj7tq]

14:38 I never even clocked that wtf lol

[@fuadfatani6054]

I’d argue logic has the best album covers in hip hop history. Just the details that Sam Spratt put in are insane.

[@michaelmacvittie6977]

Putting album art in a tier list? DOIN THANGS

[@GownoPrawdaTV1]

the artwork for Nav's 'Demons...' looks oddly similar to the artwork for Polish rap album 'NOJI?' by Tede. of course Nav didn't steal it but it's a fun coincidence

[@plplplplplpl7336]

15:45 ayo Mr cdtv referencing the movie of the year

[@EpicRadicalDude]

You should rank Eminem albums based on how funny the skits are

[@Teece007]

I recommend everyone to listen to that Big Tymerz album that was shown when he was talking about Pen and Pixel How U Luv Dat Pt 2 with the green cover not that one with the blue cover

[@makergotdrip]

been waiting for this video

[@chanceroberson7517]

The little animation that plays on Spotify when you’re listening to no pressure is just phenomenal to watch

[@NOBODYSEED]

Need a tier list of just the pen & paper covers

[@djdymond287]

We need a part 2!

[@thethorn6012]

Trap story analysis next plz

[@nolanlahrman4367]

part 2 has to have some Viper album covers, and also some Riff Raff

[@vampireblades]

if you do this again please do Mildred by Grim Salvo lmfao i know you probably haven't heard it but it's one of my favorite covers ever, and i genuinely feel it matches the music very well

[@oak3ns]

I saw Baby G.O.A.T.'s cover in the thumbnail, and I knew we were in for a good time

[@SikohPOK]

Andre Nickitina and Equipto's albums Horns and Halos #1 and #3 are two of my favorite covers.

[@helendelisle8914]

The KOD cover is 10/10 and I’d like to see u cover the Madvillainy cover

[@jesusrox4u]

That Good Intentions Deluxe cover looks like if AI was tasked with making a NAV album cover if animated like it was on a preschooler series like CocoMelon. 😂

[@onon2549]

11:09 that’s the beat for stabbed by Brotha Lynch Hung

[@Swish_Reezy]

W consistency

[@Whodnl]

Young CDTV legend

[@bigbrain2317]

Sick video, can we see ur opinions on some k dot and j cole covers ?

[@brand-o-n2878]

if you're gonna do another one CDTV we would love to see some Kendrick covers show up

[@henrywilkerson5681]

demons protected by angels is a good cover on it's own but it shouldn't be paired with nav's music

[@zander3943]

Atrocity exhibition is the greatest album cover ever imo

[@ethanjos]

Doin thangs has huge "the typa shit I've been on" energy

[@coco_rthritis6462]

No Love Deep Web album cover go hard, literally

[@owl509]

3001: A Laced Odyssey - Flatbush Zombies had to be one of the best covers in my opinion

[@AshenFates]

Fr

[@johnsturntable]

We gotta make this a series

[@michaelmacvittie6977]

Some artists I would like to see in a part 2: Kendrick Lamar Little Simz Ye Gorillaz Run The Jewels El-P solo

[@veirglas]

ah i wanted motms but its okay cdtv love ya man

[@blackmana]

that lil flip cover art kinda raw lol smh

[@VaporYTVideo]

Scum Fuck Flower Boy not being in S-tier is a crime. It's my favorite of all of his album artworks

[@johnwerner69]

Picasso would have loved Gucci mane album covers

[@nonamenevermore]

If you make another video like this, you should include Gunsmith by Hackle, Rainbow Bridge by Sematary and Grave House by Sematary & Ghost Mountain

[@simonaur]

Would like to see schoolboy covers and Rags😎

[@freeindialegionenjoyer1999]

Make another vid but with mid west and south (mostly down south) covers of 90s 💀

[@Xalraroz]

i never knew Eminem was facepalming on the Revival Cover, i never knew he was there to begin with WTF!?!

[@DefinitelyNotGerm]

can’t believe you forgot osama bin guapo by jose guapo

[@jlacky303]

Make a part 2 and add LIVE.LOVE.ASAP cover by rocky and trap story by jeezy

[@AhimtarHoN]

Hopsin - Raw or Knock Madness

[@veirglas]

i like the nav cover but it makes no sense for nav, the aesthetic of the singles and promo made no sense when in comparison to album cover edit: you took my words cdtv

[@england_905]

Kendrick Lamar covers next?

[@ciaranatort-6008]

Could you do no limit records album covers

[@super.fly24]

“Missouri gateway arch” is crazy 💀💀💀💀

[@CDTVProductions]

that’s not what it’s called? 😭

[@super.fly24]

@@CDTVProductions nooo it’s the St. Louis gateway arch 😭😭😭

[@reterer6582]

I would love to have seen your thoughts on some rap song by Earl sweat shirt

[@The-X-Territory]

You should rank MF DOOM and Scarlxrd album covers if you make a part 2. They almost always have great covers. Same with Jay Z, a lot his covers look sick. Reasonable Doubt and The Blueprint in particular look very clean.

[@cyrusbiarash9457]

Begging for a part 2. Surprised there was no drake on here including CLB and Honestly Nevermind

[@tonydrew914]

Next time do one for Astroworld
