Petition for NFR to make their spotify and apple music playlists public 🙏🙏
Where do I sign?
agreed
Real
yes bro i been wanting this
How the Illmatic cover didn’t get perfect, but NWTS did is beyond me💀! Each to their own! Far more complexity and meaning in the Illmatic cover than NWTS, and for me at least it’s more powerful.
I like NWTS better than Illmatic cover but NWTS’s cover is clearly inspired by Illmatic’s cover
NWTS is bad, i'm lost too
Right, illmatic started the baby cover trope. It even started the Biggie / Wu Tang beef because they thought Biggie stole the idea from Nas for the Ready To Die cover
Because it’s the cover not the album itself
@@jf1573I was about to say the same thing.
nwts in perfect but abbey road in amazing 💀😭
Abbey road should be in mid😂
@@michael8122hell nah
whats wrong with nwts in perfect?
Abbey road cover is so bad, NWTS clears
The glaze is unreal
Abbey Road not being in perfect is wild
So glad the Donda cover got the perfect ranking 🫡🙏
And untitled unmastered too, both masterfully created covers
It's leaking all over already😩 thanks for everything NFR we love you!!
Go back to the Leaky comment section bro 💀💀
Yeah what
Go watch the leaky videos for the vultures rollout that will never end
@@KAKI.mtl.2 I LOVE LEAKY 🗣️💥
I’ll clean it up
Y'all wyling with that Illmatic placement. 💀 Literally the most copied rap album cover of all time. Also perfectly captures the theme of the album of Nas growing up in New York.
feels like im only guy that strongly prefers the original GKMC album art
I agree, its so much better
i agrée , i think it suits the dark murky feeling of alot of the songs. the minivan one only really suits money trees and bitch don’t kill my vibe
Preach
Not just you! 😭
I 100% agree
this list is genuinely horrible
Fr, I’m not a Taylor fan but calling 1989 lazy and gkmc perfect is crazy, they’re like the same thing
This might be the worst list of anything ever
@@sawyernate53comparing 1989 to gkmc is just trying to please both sides but failing horribly to do so, un peacekeepers do a better job at peace keeping gkmc easily better than 1989 though Taylor has been getting unfairly hated on sometimes but 1989 deserves to be hated on won aoty over TPAB and even if tpab didn't exist there were better albums than 1989 excluding tpabin 2015
@@Diavolo-vv8qq pretty sure comment is talking about the covers not the actual albums lol.. and he’s right, both gkmc and 1989 are just Polaroid pictures
opinions exist lil bro not everyone has the same taste😂
Illmatic getting great but NWTS getting perfect is honestly the peak of their Drake gawking
Yea but I understand it
Cap
Oil painting vs something I could make, it makes sense
In 1994, a double exposure photo wasn‘t as easy as you might think. Plus, it shows Nas as a kid in the Projects which is the theme of the music. Don‘t flatter yourself.
His shit long asfff thoughhh
Not putting abbey road in perfect is CRAZY
It’s iconic af fs, and i hate the Beatles
@@IolZ555 Hating the Beatles is crazy
@@IolZ555your not special bro 💀
@@BortPlayz I’m not trying to be, I’m just being honest
@@Soulkinthehuman opinion 😱
Drake being over the Beatles is blasphemy
We gotta put that Lauryn Hill take in the next "NFR Worst Takes" video 😭
Bad or mid for miseducation is insane 🤯🤯🤯
Facts
fr i think its great its original asf and it matches the music perfectly
their lists is nothing but nonsense
its corny
@@RB-.- cap
The kendrick glazing is insane
as it should be tbh
he has some of the best and most iconic rap album covers
no the Drake glazing is always crazy
Glazing = being a fan/ liking anything. L
I got a Kendrick hater over here, ladies and gentlemen!
Stankonia is a perfect to me! Great video again guys
Abbey Road is the most iconic album cover of all time how is it not perfect
Miseducation at mid is CRAZZYY
I think iconic and great albums are synonymous with their album covers. Rating album covers is difficult because it's either the quality of the music inflates the album cover's rating or the album cover is what makes the great album complete and allows it to shine
Illmatic not perfect is crazy
Thriller’s placement 💀💀
Right like WTF lol😂😂😂
My jaw dropped at that placement.
Literally the most iconic album cover of all time 😂, don’t know what they were cooking with that decision.
good video nfr but i wish yall included TPAB. truly the best album cover of all time. so symbolic of what to pimp a butterfly means and represents and the vibe throughout the album. everything about it is just perfect. good video though 👍🏼
💀
TPAB is a perfect cover for sure. He brought all his homies to the White House.
@@qaqtix6700 999 in your bio says enough 😂
In his book 50 actually said that he got out of shape turing the get rich or die trying tour so he drew on the abs for the picture and thats why it looks like that
The Abbey Road cover brings me a lot of nostalgia because when I left Australia to go to Europe for a month trip, when went to England along with Italy, France, Germany, Amsterdam etc. I went to Abbey Road and we recreated that photo and there was this lady who literally just stood in the road and did know where she was.
Day i dont even know how long at this point, but anyways can you guys do a 2Pac song ranking tier list where you rank a bunch of 2Pac songs please 🙏? Please like this comment so NFR can see this comment.
bro is begging😭
@@msgaming1148might as well try 😅
@@msgaming1148 at least it's a good idea
@@PlushieMasterarent you guys sick of midpac by now?
2Pac is overrated and he only has 3 good albums. His early albums are trash with the exception of a few singles for some people.
Because the Internet and Thriller in “good??” Bro this is terrible 😭
So happy to see like by ice spice at perfect. Fantastic job ant
The blond cover gives me flashbacks of revival
Revival came out 2017, blonde came out 2016 so..
people saying NWTS cover isn't perfect are just braindead
i don't even like Drake but that cover is fucking timeless
Thank you. You’re the only person in this comment section that has a brain.
the drake hate is getting out of hand lmao
@@azurda7483 I know, right?
It’s not better than abbey road or currents and it’s basically inspired from illmatic, with illmatic I actually feel like I’m in queens bridge and it’s a real picture of nas, in NWTS the cloud aspect is the best part, I would say it’s amazing
Should’ve included Bonito generation or Time N place. Those are pretty iconic
Miseducation of Lauren hill in the mid? Seriously?
no way you gave Nothing Was The Same perfect and Blonde amazing...
NWTS's album cover is definitely better. The sky, the detail of the face. Blonde is a picture showing Frank's emotion. Still good, but not better than NWTS, purely based off the art.
The miseducation in mid is insane
Decided to watch this while on my break, now I’m going back to work more pissed off than I was before 💀
Best Music podcast rn i swear😩
Straight up!
Abbey Road has to be perfect, it one of the most iconic covers of all time period
Still a mid cover
true also i think nwts shouldve been lower and illmatic a bit hgher
astriworld cover is the most perfect and iconic cover ever and still hits amazing
its good but definitely not the most iconic cover ever
BRO WHAT!! ALL THE GOOD ALBUM COVERS GOT “GOOD” AND ALL THE MID ALBUM COVERS GOT AMAZING
Boys we need a part 2 with Pray for Paris that is a perfect cover if i’ve ever seen one
You guys should do a tier list for drill albums
Some Rap Songs has a perfect cover
It perfectly shows how the music and the themes of the album work together
Earl is blurred into his surroundings and is almost fighting to be seen in the pic, with the music, he’s buried into the beats and paired with his monotone flow, he’s trying to stay above it all and be heard.
Paired with the lyrics, he’s kind of in a blur of his own problems and trying to stay up through them.
The blurriness paired with the hazy record itself just shows how a simple image can do so much, genuinely.
100% agree. Such a slept on project in ALL aspects.
as a cover itself it's not my favorite but it does link perfectly into the sound so I totally get where you're coming from
Lu: “we need to keep bias out of this”
*puts NWTS into perfect*
I’m a big Drake fan but how do you put NWTS over Abbey road lmao

I'm so glad you put NWTS in Perfect.
What about the alternate version of the Stankonia cover, which is better than the "default" version. (was actually the version I got when I got the CD when it came out).
Lu said Cardi B cover has polka dots lol😂😂😂
😂Right? Those do not look like polka dots at all.
Missed the Slim shady LP cover which is the best of all time imo
How is MBDTF not here
Right
The Blonde cover is the rap version of the Weezer Blue cover
Blonde isn't rap though
How the hell Igor is amazing just a picture of him and a pink background
There's no way you put the greatest album of all time "Thriller" below any of these 😅
Okay hol up wtf you guys were doing in Compton💀
“We can’t be biased based off the quality of the music” immediately has bias for the majority of picks💀
Love all these blind rankings, they’re hilarious to watch!
blonde deserves perfect imo
Not putting The Beatles and Michael Jackson in perfect is acting wild lol😂😂😂
i don’t see how the perfect covers are a Polaroid of a van and a admittedly pretty good peice of art but i don’t see how currents , abby road and illmatic are under that
Miseducation is MINIMUM amazing
Never let these bros cook
Pink Floyd has some of the most amazing album covers of all time. Wish You Were Here, Ummagumma, Animals, The Wall and The Endless River are my favorites.
having cardi b's album art in an iconic tier list is crazy
It us though. Hate the music, not the art.
NWTS is not cheesy but Lauryn Hill is? I don't understand, truly I don't.
What’s crazy is they took a few shots for Abbey Road in those 10 mins, and some shots did have Paul in shoes.
Make a tier list of your guy's tier lists and instantly put this one in the bottom row😂
glad to see donda at perfect 🙌 keep it up nfr 🔥
😂😂😂
Abbey Road should be perfect brooo
Take a shot every time either of them says “to a certain extent”
Love these videos
That classic album Californaction.....
Abbey Road is my fav cover of all time
GKMC (a picture of a minivan) over Currents and Abbey Road is INSANE
Yeah but it’s more the aesthetic, it’s a crinkled Polaroid picture. Never been done before in that manner. It’s not just a van. It’s a literal picture. That’s what makes it unique. And it’s the van that Kendrick drives in the story. I still prefer the original album cover and Abbey Road should have been perfect and NWTS should have been great or amazing and Miseducation should have amazing or perfect
anyone remember the family guy episode where stewie was scared of the news of the world cover and brian was harassing him with it 😭
In the zoomed out picture of Thriller Mike is petting a baby tiger🔥
In my opinion all of these (from the video) are perfect:
gkmc, straight outta Compton, Californication, Illmatic, misseducation, Abbey Road,
36 chambers, long live a$ap,
News of the world,
Death certificate.
“Not judging the covers based off of iconicness” but proceeds to put ready to die and gkmc in the perfect (fantastic albums btw but they are hella basic and fine especially when their are other album covers on this list I would put above) them)
blond at amazing but long live asap at good 💀
Did you guys notice that on the Thriller album cover MJ is wearing a black zip up jacket under his white suit.
There should literally be an abbey road tier above all
Ant looking hella cute on this particular afternoon
Coloring book is perfect
Get "Nothing Was The Same" out of here and place place Abby Road there. The composition is better, more interesting color pallette, how the suits combine with the background, the coordination between the band members, etc....
Also, not placing Illmatic on AT LEAST Amazing is beyond me. There's so many dope details with the photo, like if you look at the light on his forehead how it also looks like the sun on the street, the serious look on the kid's face, how the curtains behind the kid blend with the buildings behind him (letting you know that it's a kid watching the streets through his window), and his eyes being at the same level as the horizon. HOW IS NOT AMAZING!?
abbey road is the greatest album cover of all time and it got amazing
Blond has to be a perfect cover. It perfectly encapsulates the emotion of entire album, regardless of if you’re listening to Pink + White, Nikes, White Ferrari, or Nights. Across all these soundscapes, the cover seems to still fit every song. Not sure how NWTS got perfect and this didn’t
Illmatic> NWTS, Miseducation is Amazing or Perfect, definitely not cheese
how is dark side of the moon in perfect if they arent going off how iconic the cover is
The Rihanna one and the Beatles one shoulda been perfect.
This has to be the worst takes ever from yall
Thriller cover on the same tier as Invasion of Privacy 😭
Abbey Road is arguably the best and most iconic cover of all time. The fact it’s not in perfect is unreal.
Ant looking like he receiving backshots in the thumbnail 😂
Y’all arguing about drake but what about gambinos album just being his face and Lauryn hill having her face with more background and detail and being in mid
Abbey Road in perfect without a second thought tf
Thriller and Abbey Road should be in the perfect tier
the lauryn hill cover is literary one of the best album covers of all time
IRTD and NWTS were both inspired by illmatic...it deserves perfect.
The Miseducation is inspired by Bob Marley and The Wailers's Burnin' album cover. Infusing the consciousness and wisdom of roots reggae with the miseducation theme on the cover as she does with the music..it is genius and deserves a perfect..
With SGT Pepper and Abbey road, the beatles basically invented the idea of the perfect album cover...that one was just disrespectful
😭😭😭
I love the blue clouds!
- Ant 2024
Not putting Thriller on Perfect is crazy
1989 is just a Polaroid of Taylor but the blue album is just a picture of weezer 🤷🏽♂️
