Kudos to Complex for publishing this article of 10 graffiti artists who could have saved Chris Brown’s Graffiti album cover.
I’m not much of a graffiti artist myself, but shoot, I probably could have done a better job. Don’t know what I’m talking about? Check out his hideous album cover here. Maybe it’s a good thing it’s so ugly. I’m hoping everybody judges it by its cover and leaves it on the shelf. THIS IS THE MAN WHO BEAT RIHANNA.

I’ve been following the development of the mega-collaboration between DJ’s Squeak E. Clean and DJ Zegon ever since it was made known that they were coming together with artists from around the world to form N.A.S.A.
It’s amazing that the two managed to get so many people on board this musical project. There are names like Kanye West, M.I.A., Santogold, The Cool Kids, DJ AM, Ghostface Killah, Tom Waits and many more on one 17-song disc. Of course, with such high-calibre names on queue, N.A.S.A. is setting some very high expectations to be met and they almost get it with the exception of a few tracks. Otherwise, I think the album is quite fun to listen to simply because you get to hear so many styles of lyrical flow in one sitting. Some of my favorite tracks are ”Gift”, “Samba Soul”, “The Mayor”, and “N.A.S.A. Music”.
Anyway, the album drops February 17, 2009, but you can check it out now if you want.
By the way , if you’re wondering about the image above, it’s an image of all 5 official album covers for the album, each designed by a different artist.
