Second album from the duo of Jeffrey Townes (aka DJ Jazzy Jeff) and Will Smith (aka The Fresh Prince), including “Parents Just Don’t Understand” which won the first Best Rap Performance Grammy in 1989.
Not sure I even realized this at the time, but their first two albums came out before The Fresh Prince of Bel Aire, which didn’t air until 1990.
My copy—via Antone’s Records in Austin TX—is an 80s pressing complete with inner sleeves and hype sticker. It’s a double LP but not a gatefold.

Assuming you mean on the inner liner, that’d be Ready Rock C, who has “human beatbox” credits on multiple tracks
