Thescience is speaking truth... look at the text, he bit nas, but that cover is pretty similar.

uhh dude.... you can't say they are not close at all....
 notice how on biggies cover the bottom text says "ready to die" all lowercased with die being red, and "ready to," being bolded and off compared to "die." Then look at illmatic It says "illmatic" but the "ill" part is off and the style is off as well. Heres a big one. The top text on ready to die says the notorious BIG. With the "BIG" red and boxed in black. Just like "NaS" on illmatic red with a black outline.

all album covers and posters do that to draw your eye down at and angle across the cover, they'll have something to make one of the top corners stand out and then have something on the opposite lower corner to draw your eye down in that direction, its a very common format. the word "big" and the word "Nas" are both totally different as well, different sizes, different fonts. them both being red and having a black outline is because of the color theme they chose, not because they were biting the cover. the color theme for biggies album was red, white and black. so of course they're going to make the top corner stand out by having a word in red, red is the first color your eye sees, (you probably looked at the red title on the album cover below before you read this) red automatically attracts your eye to the image, this is why the color them of red, white and black is very common in design. and if you want to get picky the word "nas" is in a different type of red then the one used in biggies cover. go search "album cover" in google and you'll see for yourself 
 the only one who bit nas album cover is this guy, theres no question this is biting

Woah ok sir. All I said was that they weren't polar opposites. But they got themselves as a baby so he did bite nas.

I dont really see wats so wrong with taking inspiration from other covers.
In computer graphics at school, we take inspiration from other shit all the time. Except we put our own
twist to it so it wont be 100% like the original.
