WTF: Mr. Stinky Lives Up To His Name
Rap CDs feature some of the most notoriously bad cover art of all time. Exhibit A, from a poor misguided soul who decided to hang his entire career on the name Mr. Stinky.
I’m trying to imagine the conversation about this cover. “Well, my name is MISTER STINKY, and there’s a, you know, stinky dead body over here to the right. And behind me is a stinky van, which is, like, stinky because it’s broken down and looks like something a soccer mom would drive, not an O.G. like myself.”
And then there’s poor Stinky, staring at the camera with that “What do I do now?” look on his face. Oh, the agony–if this CD had been packaged correctly, the entire WORLD would now be sharing in the joys of Mr. Stinky’s GENIUS. But alas, it was not meant to be.
Fame, fortune, and all the summer sausage you can eat have all passed Mr. Stinky by…he can’t even hope to share a bill with Mr. Mister, who could sympathize with Mr. Stinky for having a dubious (OK, idiotic) name and a severe lack of willpower to do anything about it.
Poor Mr. Stinky, where are you now? Are you repaneling the house with all those CDs you got stuck with? Perhaps you’re DJing at the local skating rink wondering where it all went south? Or maybe…just MAYBE this is another one of those early Beck CDs cleverly disguised to look like something else. It could happen.
Who ever wasted there time and life…. let me know where you are so I can put a bullet in your face!

PPS. Seriously, your comment made us laugh. More please. Thanks for reading!
Mr. Stinky may be an excellent marksman but he apparently failed third grade English. Get a sense of humor gangsta….Good luck at the 7-11 you will soon be workin at….
Oh and what you wrote on this blog? It might actually be criminal. You know, threatening to kill someone. Good job genius…
[...] metal band album covers is probably almost as dangerous as making fun of gangsta rap records like Mister Stinky’s Everything Dead. THAT clown actually made a sort-of halfhearted threat to shoot my little harmless ass after I [...]
