This is pretty cool.

The symbiotic relationship between NBA basketball and hip hop music stretches back decades and from coast to coast, but never has the relationship been more visually pleasurable than in recent faux album art created by artist Jesse Nunez.

We won't spoil the fun that comes with scrolling through the photoshopped treats by yourself, but suffice to say it includes all your favorite NBA stars posing in all your favorite rap albums.

Next thing on the checklist should be watching as many of these living artists play pick-up against each other as possible.
