The Coup - Guillotine

Which was eirely prescient

In 2001, The Coup released Party Music to widespread praise. However, in part because of distribution problems, sales of the album were low. The original album cover art depicted group members Pam the Funkstress and Riley standing in front of the twin towers of the World Trade Center as they are destroyed by huge explosions, and Riley is pushing the button on a guitar tuner. The cover art was finished in June 2001 and the album was scheduled to be released in mid-September.[2] However, in response to the uncanny similarity of the artwork with the September 11, 2001 attacks, the album release was delayed until November of that year with the cover featuring a hand with a flaming martini glass.

But the lead Singer is Boots Riley, better known making Sorry To Bother You. And he got a song with Tupac too, he's been around a minute

Wait, is that Boots Riley of The Eagles of Death Metal? That dude is fantastic

Edit: nope, Boots Electric is the nickname of Jesse Hughes of The Eagles of Death Metal. Boots Riley is a totally different (equally cool) person

already knew about boots and the coup but didn't know that about the album cover, that's wild
