Check out this album cover! It turns out that the woman featured on the cover was Ice-T's girlfriend at the time. Not many people could pull off wearing that bathing suit. I was captivated when I saw this image, to say the least. It almost didn't matter what the music was like on the record itself. For me, it was all about the cover.
"In the next few years, gangsta rap would degenerate into nothing more than cheap exploitation and empty clichés, but in Ice's hands, it was as informative as it was captivating." [source]
I'm no expert, but the above could well be true.
