Comic book-style album cover for 𝐂𝐳𝐚𝐫𝐟𝐚𝐜𝐞 𝐛𝐲 𝐈𝐧𝐬𝐩𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐚𝐡 𝐃𝐞𝐜𝐤, 𝟕𝐋, 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐄𝐬𝐨𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐢𝐜 . A futuristic, armored superhero — Czarface — blasts through the frame with a clenched red fist and blue steel suit, mid-leap in a fiery, apocalyptic landscape. He’s surrounded by chaos: to the right, a flaming zombie cop screams in agony; to the left, a fierce sorceress with a skull tiara readies a spell. The background features a crumbling city engulfed in flames, with bolts of energy and debris flying everywhere. Bold, explosive colors — red, yellow, blue, and black — give the cover a retro 1980s comic book aesthetic. The album title “CZARFACE” towers across the top in massive block letters, while Inspectah Deck’s name bursts from a starburst design. Prices and issue numbers mimic a vintage comic, adding to the nostalgic feel.

The album cover for The 𝐖𝐢𝐝𝐨𝐰’𝐬 𝐒𝐨𝐧 𝐛𝐲 𝐀𝐩𝐚𝐭𝐡𝐲 features Oil painting-style album cover depicting two skeletons in aristocratic attire from the 17th century. One skeleton rides a white horse, dressed in dark armor with a blue sash, holding a staff or scepter. The other skeleton stands beside him, dressed in rich red robes and holding a baby skeleton wrapped in cloth. They are framed by a classical architectural column and dramatic landscape with a cloudy sky and green drapery. A royal crest with a crown is displayed on the lower left corner. The overall tone is regal, surreal, and macabre.

4/ Islam et rap US [liste interminable de connexions] pour ce dernier jour de Ramadhan

"Might act up, but I still can pass Da'wah
I'm usin' new ways to try to reach these better days
Instead of tryna take you under, I just make you wonder
I still fast, make salaat, and pay zakaat
I didn't make Hajj yet, but that's my next project"

Sur l'album Things Fall Apart (1999) qui a ensuite saigné ma platine, comme celles de beaucoup d'autres, toute la décennie suivante

#TuneTuesday is #FireAndBurn

One year only after the Infamous legendary album, they released a maybe even more dark, desperate and hitting hard album : Hell on Earth (1996)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R2P0XrkMy-c

" '96, strike back with more hot shit
Illuminate, my team'll glow like radiation
With no time for patient or complication
Let's get it done right, my clique airtight
Trapped in a never-ending gunfight"
