Hilarious Mashup Reimagines Sloths on Famous Album Covers

Do sloths make everything better? Matt Tucker, the Picture Editor at Buzzfeed UK, thinks so. He's the mastermind behind this hilarious series of sloths that replace humans on iconic album covers. With a mix of classic and contemporary favorites, these adorable creatures are transformed into musicians like The Beatles and Adele, as well as the naked swimming baby from Nirvana's album, Nevermind.

The Internet seems to love sloths, and the covers are a fun and silly pop-culture mashup. We enjoy seeing these sleepy-looking mammals take the place of mega stars, and how effortlessly their clawed toes stroke luxurious locks of hair. The sloths also look great wearing the musicians' costumes. It's as if they were born for these roles!
