Photoshop Dream Albums

At first I was just gonna make a post about the rumored Nas and Jay-Z project, The Kings of Hip Hop, which would be monumental. I mean, who wouldn't want to be a part of that album? Anyway, I thought it would be cool if they went with that "nod to the old school" album cover theme like these:











So I made this:

For Comparison:





Phenomenal Right? Anyway, after making this, I thought about utilizing my incredible photoshop skills to make other dream albums of mine. Here are the rest:





50 Cent & Kanye West: He's The Dbag, I'm The Rapper



Photobucket





You backpackers may whine about this one but this album would have some serious shit plus it would sell at least one billion copies. Again for comparison:

Cormega, AZ, & DJ Premier are De La Street- The Rotten Apple



Photobucket


I don't think they've done a track all together before but in 2006 there was Cormega's "Dirty Game" and AZ's "The Format", two ridiculous tracks both produced by Premo. Plus their collab on the Statik Selektah album was great too. I'm sure they could come up with something better than De La Street but I tried to fuck up as little text as possible there. Based off De La Souls last release (not old school but a legendary crew anyway):





Bishop Lamont & Dr. Dre: California Minded




Photobucket


Unlike that last one, this one has a legit shot happening just as soon as Dre gets in the studio and gets to work. Never. Here's a snippet of a track called "I Dominate" which sounds like a monster. And of course, Criminal Minded:
