If we are to judge albums by their covers, then these albums might not have passes for music fans – might end up in the hands of Nollywood movie buyers. While few album covers like; Asa’s beautiful imperfection, MI’s MI2, Tha suspect’s I am music, Omawumi’s wonder woman (which looked similar to Alicia keys’ As I am), and others speak well of the artistes and gave great impressions, it seems like many artistes are still left behind when it comes to making good album covers. We are in the era where album covers are becoming more significant, media players on gadgets attaching album covers with songs. We’ve shortlisted the not so good album covers of albums released last year.

Some of the art covers are not bad (, but most of the them are just outright horrendous (K Solo, Konga.etc)

.

God will surely punish d mumu wey write 4 qmark. So untouchable has d worst cover

The writer of the piece lost credibility by adding Ruggedmans album cover to the list.

Ruggedmans cover is by far one of the BEST  album covers out of Naija period!!

He just added Ruggedmans album cover to drive traffic to his site

The writer (Sonde Jimmy) is what we call a laid back, slothful and lazy writer. You classify album covers as the worst of the year and you cannot provide a responsible and articulate explanations for categorizing them as such. Comments such as

This’ the only part Sound Sultan got it wrong, even though the album is aight. We still hoping Sound sultan makes an apology for making this not so good album cover ‘cos its unusual

means nothing and says nothing.
You should give an example of how a great album cover should look like, the concepts you are looking out for and why the listed covers fall short.
Nigerian writers haba, please step up, the world has gone way beyond this. At least take learnings from proper analysts like E! or even PCMag

that guy is a lazy and attention seeking writer.
every time he writes he exposes his stupidity.

Please who is this guy? Writing no be by force o. My candid advice? Take up truck driving or typewriter maintenance or anything that doesn't require you to have a shred of credibility.

I've always said it . . . Question Mark is just a bunch of talentless people that need to get themselves real writers, not the lazy, shock value abusing plonkers currently writing for them.

lmao, @talentless people

10. Ruggedman- untouchable
It looks meaningful and we got the concept of Ruggedman’s micheal (angel micheal) looking untouchable, but the flipside is the funny interpretation. The hiphop feel wasn’t there, the cover looked more like that of a movie or rather a story. What made it worst was the big reed letter that reads ‘[b]RUGGEDMAN[/b]’ which I guess represent danger.

abeg make una help me ask this foolish writer if Danger is touchable or untochable

Ruggedman untouchable is one of the best album covers we have seen. In as much as i hate to admit it, that sound sultan cover is horrendous, the list is pretty much accurate, the rest i dont care about.

@eldee abeg take am easy.

Sensationalism at its best.
