# Hip Hop Cover Remixes The Jones Factory Tumblr Re-Imagines Urban Album and Mixtape Art By Jason Soy | Published 2011-11-15 | Pop Culture Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/jones-factory References: [kingsinclair.tumblr](http://kingsinclair.tumblr.com/post/12557170071/jonesfactory-now-youre-pleading-she-on-the) & [jonesfactory.tumblr](http://jonesfactory.tumblr.com/) Music is a form of art that really speaks to people, so it comes as no surprise that the Jones Factory Tumblr would dedicate their entire blog to re-inventing some of hip hop's most beloved album and mixtape covers in order to reach Internet users' households. Not a lot of information is available on the relatively new Tumblr and its operator, but Jones Factory will undoubtedly pick up steam as more content is produced and posted. I want to compliment the illustrator of these remixed covers as his work with vector graphics is actually rather well done and imaginative. Some of the covers featured on the Jones Factory Tumblr thus far include The Weeknd's Thursday, Jay-Z and Kanye West's Watch The Throne, Drake's Take Care and Kendrick Lamar's Section.80. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 4.2/10 - Popularity: 61% | Activity: 57% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 90% men, 10% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Millennial - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Pop Culture](https://www.trendhunter.com/popculture) > [Internet](https://www.trendhunter.com/internet) ## Key Themes ### What's Driving This Trend - **Hip Hop Cover Art Remakes:** New forms of digital art in music platforms provide opportunities for artists to innovate on digital platforms - **Digital Music Platforms:** The digital music platforms offer more exposure alternatives and can remove limitations of physical spaces for artists - **Minimalist Album Art Trending:** Minimalism is appearing as a trend in album covers with artists experimenting on the use of negative spaces and simpler designs ### Who This Affects Most - **Music Streaming Companies:** Streaming companies can offer more exposure for new artists, allowing freedom in experimenting with their art and targeting new audiences - **Digital Design Platforms:** Digital design platforms can better accommodate emerging art forms like music design and open new revenue streams for designers - **Apparel Industry:** Moving beyond music, fashion firms can incorporate new art designs and aesthetics as album covers and remakes can become huge hit merchandise lines ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Personalized AI Album Covers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ai-album-covers.md) - [AI Cover Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/albumcover-ai.md) - [Miniature Artful Hip-Hop Landmarks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/danny-cortes.md) - [Hip-Hop-Influenced Art Installations](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bric-house.md) - [Celebratory Hip-Hop Collaborations](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hiphop-collaboration.md) - [Luxe Artful Limited Vinyls](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/to-pimp-a-butterfly.md) - [Music-Informed Fashion Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/roc-nation-and-moncler.md) - [Hip-Hop Craft Beer Collabs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/beer-collab.md) - [Contemporary Statue Album Artwork](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/drip-season-4.md)
