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 [...]

Crooked I drops first single from the upcoming project In None We Trust: The Prelude. The EP will feature Jay Rock, Glasses Malone, Mistah F.A.B., Horseshoe G.A.N.G., Conyac and K-Young. Nice blend of West Coast talent, hopefully he picks up the rest of Slaughterhouse too. Crooked I’s In None We Trust: The Prelude drops December [...]

Here’s another banger from Drama off his upcoming Third Power album. Crooked I and B.O.B. put on from Long Beach to the ATL.  The album drops on October 11th, but you can pre-order it today on iTunes. Previously: Video: Slaughterhouse, DJ Drama, Twista, Big K.R.I.T. & More On State Of Hip-Hop

I knew Plies’ instrumental would come in handy for something in the future. While most normal individuals don’t listen to Plies, a lot listen to Crooked I. He doesn’t keep the same concept. Rather, he does his thing spitting on a range of topics from real music to labels (*stands up and claps when that [...]

New leak from the boy ChrisCo, and again he gives us more dope features. Crooked I on an Alchemist produced track. One word: fire. This is the second single off of ChrisCo’s latest project entirely produced by Alchemist entitled, How Does It Feel. It doesn’t disappoint. The EP is coming soon. ChrisCo Ft. Crooked I & [...]

You may or may not remember Tracy Chapan’s 1988 hit of the same name. For whatever reason, Crooked dug into the crates to pour a little bit of his heart and talk about his grind from the struggling bottom to creating C.O.B. I like it. Crooked aspires to be different and who in the game [...]

Crooked is on his two at a time game. His next victims are Nas’ single and Meek’s “I’m A Boss.” He absolutely took over “Nasty,” smacked it like Suge Knight would’ve in his prime and hit it with an “ok, bye.” I wasn’t as much impressed with “I’m A Boss” even though there was some [...]

Blind Productions brings Treacherous’ two powerhouses together. Black and white, FTW! History/Destiny EP coming this fall. Shouts to Mickey. Previously: One-2 Ft. Jayo Felony – Hardcore (Remix)
