8. A Tribe Called Quest, Midnight Marauders
What makes A Tribe Called Quest’s Midnight Marauders album cover and sleeve notes legendary are the over 70 of Hip-Hop’s pioneers featured on the cover. For the most part, they are wearing headphones as face after face represents the personality of a specific artist, crew, era, and/or movement in rap music. The group used what has become a trade symbol of their brand, the red, black, and green striped Black woman. Red, black and green are the colors for The Pan-African flag designed by Marcus Garvey in the early 1900s.
