Pick up them toys and clean your room, boy.

Rating - Fail

Simple cover with a powerful elements and message. Mixtape cover artists should look at this before, during, and after their creative process. It'll let them keep some integrity as artists.

Rating - Masterpiece

Having another guy looking back over your shoulder is suspect. Especially when that guy has a trimmed mustache. I think this is a textbook case of Thuggin' Luv.

Rating - Satisfactory

The mixtape scene is going in another direction. Things are happening to make me question manhood(not mine). Something's going on in this cover. What? I don't know. But it seems to be either really preppie or really gay. In hip hop there really isn't much difference.

Rating - Satisfactory

This is a well-themed cover. The Usual Suspects is a film staple and it's poster was appropriate perfection. If these guys could've just realized that posing for a cover isn't an exercise in grillin', they would've made great replica.

Rating - Satisfactory

I have to give reggae mixtapes a bit of leeway. A lot of times they tend to be intentionally bizarre just for the sake of it. Yet I wonder if this artist holds command over that wasp giant wasp. That'd be really REALLY cool.

There's something a little gay about this cover. I can't quite put my finger on it... Maybe it's five dudes coming out the closet box.
