    Preach On, Sermon: Lil Wayne's Cry To The World

    Lil Wayne - Amen (Cry Out) The life of a big-time celebrity doesn’t equal a care-free world. B.I.G. said it best with “mo money, mo problems”. It’s not just the money that brings forth problems. Your environment plays a good role, and this is something Lil Wayne always knew and displayed ...

    SD Exclusive: John Payne (Death Row President) Discusses Tupac Album & Upcoming Releases

    Photo credit: Tony Morrone. If there’s one legacy on the West Coast that describes the 90’s, it’d have to be Death Row Records. From Tupac to Snoop Dogg, that label was the birth of several stars and legends. However, for every good part of Death Row, there’s a bad part to ...

    Review: Ace Hood's Neumos Show In Seattle (1-6-12)

    All Photos Credit: Deonte Daniels A good show is often similar to cooking a meal. Too many elements go into making sure that you eat and enjoy it. Things like being organized, having all the ingredients, cooking it at the right temperature, and time, and serving it. It’s difficult to serve ...

It’s game time! Who rooting for the under dog? Crooked I has been one for years and in my opinion, still continues to live in that area. In Sports, when you succeed time and time again, the world catches on. It’s funny how that same thing doesn’t happen in the rap game. Regardless, one fourth [...]

“I get it jumpin’ in this bitch like a pole vault/ Plus my dough talk like I’m the owner of Roc Nation because I’m a Cole boss” A product of Long Beach and a menace to recording studios and microphones worldwide is what Crooked I is. Last night, Power 106′s L.A. Leakers torched the airwaves [...]

You ever watch the Family Guy episode where Peter annoys the whole house with “Bird Is The Word”? That’s how I feel every time “The Motto” (original or remixes) comes on. I’ve yet to hear anybody kill the beat. It’s un-kill-able in a bad way. Let’s please retire this beat. In None We Trust out now. [...]

Crooked I – Sweet Freestyle

December 28th, 2011

Common once used this record to take wild shots at Drake, off his The Dreamer/The Believer album. Crooked I takes it, adds his bars and watches it die slowly. If Common wasn’t enough, take heed to the lyricism of the left coast representative. In None We Trust out now. Sidenote: the song that leaked yesterday was from [...]

In between deciding what beat to freestyle over next and making chess moves with Snoop, an unreleased record from Crooked I’s vast catalog has sprung a leak. Speaking of Snoop, I hope if the two make some more music that it brings out Snoop’s gangsta side. Cocaine is one hell of an addiction and so [...]

Crooked I has been in the game for so long now. DubCNN was one of the few in this digital era to notice and support him throughout everything, from Death Row to Slaughterhouse. In their latest interview, they discuss Eminem, Shady Cypher, the new EP, his next single titled “Game Time” dropping January 17 and [...]

Imagine Crooked I spawned four equally lyrical people. That’s the Horse Shoe Gang for you. Crooked and his brothers murder the drums. Nice choice of location. Grab In None We Trust: The Prelude on iTunes. Directed by Mihat Hye. Previously: Crooked I Ft. K-Young – Diamond In The Back

At first, the beat was throwing me off. It’s not that good to me. One thing you need to realize whenever you listen to a great lyricist like Crooked I and a superb singer like K-Young is to look past the beat sometimes. So, the verses are nice and Young murders the hook like he usually does. [...]

Well, what a pleasant surprise. Besides finishing up Slaughterhouse’s sophomore effort, Crooked I will be digitally popping up in our stockings, or slightly earlier, on December 13. In None We Trust is set to feature some big West Coast names, including Mistah F.A.B., Glasses Malone, Jay Rock, K-Young, Coniyac and of course, the Horse Shoe [...]

Using his intro talk to discuss the fakeness in the game, Crooked letter destroys another instrumental. I know, I said I hate this beat so much. Yes, I do. But there’s that rule about Crooked I (and Slaughterhouse in general) that gives them permission to go in on any instrumental since they kill all the [...]
