So, what R&B album covers are your favorite? Even though I wasn't a huge fan of the album as a whole, I really liked the cover for "Nathan Michael Shawn Wanya" with all the old style microphones, very classy. | |||

I dont know why, but I always liked the way Johhny Gill was standing on the LSG cover. At the same time, I hated Gerald Levert's stance on that same cover. I also like the cover to Mario's "Turning Point". I guess its the whole "all white" vibe its got going. | |||

However, even with that in mind, I like Gerald Levert's Love & Consequence's art (http://www.rnbhaven.com/90s-music/album-reviews/Love-And-Consequences/265) It's fairly standard fair for him with him brooding, but it works well as the album is pretty dark throughout. | |||

Havok214 2008-12-05 16:18:01 Total Posts: 407 | I also love teh cover of Mint Condition's "Definition of a Band" Since we're talking about good covers, we may as well talk about the bad. I have to say that I absolutley hate the cover to bobby brown's "Bobby" album. WTH was he thinking? | |||
