Please, everyone, I need your help. I need to know which of these deserves the title of WORST ALBUM COVER OF ALL TIME, and SECOND WORST ALBUM COVER OF ALL TIME:
I think you've just summed it up perfectly. Tears were quite literally streaming down my face when I first saw Zip Zap Rap. Tears of joy, happiness, and laughter. And I rarely ever actually laugh out loud when I'm by myself in front of the computer.
If by "worst" you mean "best ironic" then I'm going to have to go with Devastatin' Dave. People trying to look sensitive but ending up looking like douchbages are a dime a dozen. But cheese like Dave's is a rare and wonderful thing. The best part, or maybe it's just the frosting on the cake, is the "Hear Our Message: Say No To Drugs." Proving once again Bill Hicks' axiom that bands that don't do drugs really, really suck.
Ah, have you actually listened to the song? The man can't even "rap" by white-man 80's standards. If you think that sleeve is funny, those lyrics will blow you away. Without a doubt some of the most cliché, poorly worded lyrics I've ever heard in my life.

By far and away, Devastating Dave owns this one, although "Tino" is an extremely worthy contender, and comes off as slightly more absurd. However, I submit this one, if it works:
It's such a cliché album cover that it deserves mention, but because it is so cliché that means its not unlike 10,000 other sleeves. The three different colours for each person, the shorts, and how that moron on the right has his jacket over his shoulder (is that a jacket?). and nothing beats a dorky buff guy in matching white shorts and undershirt. though the plaid shorts on the center guy are pretty awesome.
I thought that Devastatin' Dave was buried under dried volcanic rock somewhere in Hawaii, and that I'd never see ZIP ZAP RAP ever again (though I half-hoped) but DAMMIT!
I am a slave to cheese, so I can't say a con word against The Turntable Slave, but whiny-hot-pants boy has to go. I hope he gets a door slammed on his pitiful penis. Now that will clear his pipes... all three of them.
you're telling me you've actually heard of this douchebag before? Wow. Where ever would you hear such horrid music? I've been able to downlaod a few mp3s, and as mentioned above his lyrics are so fucking bad and cheeseball that I couldn't stop laughing. I'd love to meet this guy.

The only thing that can actually make this worse is the fact that it is Christian Rap. "DC" stands for "Decent Christian". They did horrific songs with names like "Take It To The Lord" and they just all out sucked, in the way that only white-people-trying-to-rap-in-the-80s could. Sad thing is, they apparantly went platinum and won three grammies. Eugh...
