With 25th anniversary of the tragic event coming, are there any albums that remind you of the life BEFORE 9/11 happened?

As an aside The Coup had this artwork for a mid-September 2001 slated release. They pushed the date back and changed the cover.

Considering what they rap about the cover art kinda makes a lot of sense, but the timing was wild.

I’ve been listening to them for years. Do a web search for “the coup party music original cover” or similar?

Rolling Stone, Reddit, CNN, Snopes, Discogs, Rapmusicguide, Allmusic were the first sources i found on page 1 of the results.

Have a look.
