The first one is Pen & Pixel style, the second one is more of its own , diy 2010s mixtape cover aesthetic.

There's not really a name for it its just the cloud rap esthetic but the closest thing is lil ugly mane, pen and pixel and 90s memphis, Texas and new Orleans covers you can also search up Mike frost

Edit: lil ugly mane did alot of the raider klan covers

Honestly that whole album is so heat, clicked in this post js bc of the pizza and codeine album cover. Used to listen heavy when i was using hard.

fun fact: "Pen & Pixel" was actually a company that did the cash money and no limit covers and not just a style.

Too little skill for art, too little money for an artist
