Can Crooked I blow up
« on: August 27, 2001, 07:11:18 PM »
How many of you think Crooked I can blow up,  I think he'll be lucky if he goes platnium.  I dont think he can be mainstream enough.  I only heard tha songs'  Death Rizzo which i thought was ight,  I aint shit wit out my homeboyz from kurupts Cd which i thought his verse was nutin special an Gangsta rap from 2002 in which he just rips it an it was tha highlight of a pretty good CD.  It is one of the best verses Ive heard in a while.  Suge would have to promote him like hell to make him go mainstream an sell platnium,  he has tha skill to go platnium but is he mainstream enough.

P.S. CAN any1 tell me some good crooked I songs to download

No doubt he "CAN" blow up, but I don't see it at all. Deathrow is just a figment right now... seriously Deathrow thinks they will do what they did back in 1992, but what they don't realize is that back in 92, they were the creators of a sound that was never heard, people jumped on it and are still praising it now... but now however the sound is not new, its not fresh... its gonna be good, just not shocking or so amazing... as for Crooked I... he will end up being a great rapper in the west, but I dont see him getting any attention... its like Common, mos def, or talib kweli, he may earn respect, but he wont earn the game.

NO. He's crazy dope but rides a fuckep up label of hating ass niggaz. Just for that I wouldn't BUY his album, I would download the joints I like... I ain't buyin' shit from Death Row anymore... until they kill the hate and the bullshit... That's wack for Hip Hop...

Dont be a cheap bastard. If Crooked I is a good artist (which he is), then give him his props, support him, and buy his album.

Lemme guess: You didn't buy Tha Last Meal because you hate Master P or what?

I did buy Last Meal and I DO like Master P as a person and a business (even tough I don't check his music). Plus he doesn' fuck this industry up, so don't call people u don't even know "cheap bastards" coz I actually BUY more cds than u can guess...

I've only heard two other songs by Crooked (I mean other than the ones you mentioned):

Uh Oh (DOPE, DOPE, DOPE song)
&
Hustlaz Don't Die (pretty dope)

and if I think he can blow up? yeah wit the right production and heat I would think so

peace

A topic similar 2 this came up a few wks back & like I said then IMO he's defo got the talent, it's jus' all bout the marketing now. If Suge pushes him hard enough he'll prolly b able 2 obtain mainstream success. Y'all can't exactly say DR ain't gonna b recognised any mo', I mean Suge has had mass media attention = DR publicity. I would like 2 c Crooked gets his props.

I think that if you take one of the 'O's' out of 'Good' it's 'God', if you add a 'D' to 'Evil' it's the 'Devil'. I think some cool motherfucker sat down a long time ago and said 'let's figure out a way to control motherfuckers'.

I've heard
Death Rizzo
Gangsta Rap w/Tha Dogg Pound produced by Fred Wreck
Step Up w/Tha Dogg Pound,Xzibit,cuts by Battlecat produced by Daz Dillinger & Blaqtoven
I Ain't Shit Without My Homeboyz w/Tha Dogg Pound,Baby S,Soopafly
Poor Man's Cry w/Barrington Levy,Daz Dillinger,Soopafly

he rips all of those,but if he has bouncy beats catchy choruses,decent promotion and either funny or controversial lyrics then yeah he can blow up. So if he employs those qualities into well crafted singles and has at least decent promotion i can see him blowing up,he didn' even cuss much on "Gangsta Rap" so if he can keep that up on the singles and more-likely-to-be-popular tracks than yeah.peace-Tanjint

I doubt this guy is ever gonna blow up...First off he's on the Row...And second he doesn't really have the charisma to do so...I mean look at a Kurupt he's much more well known than Crooked but he barely goes gold...That should tell you something right there...And Crooked is a much doper lyricist at this point than Kurupt...From what I heard of his shit(which isn't alot)I would say he's doper than Xzibit also at this point...But dope lyricist doesn't always equal dope album(See Canibus)...
