Producer The Alchemist recently revealed his admiration for Slaughterhouse and what the hip-hop squad brings to the rap game.

In addition to co-signing Joe Budden, Joell Ortiz and Royce Da 5'9, Al explained his respect for fellow West Coast emcee Crooked I.

"Those guys are sick," he said in an interview. "That's like four ballplayers all on the same team in the schoolyard who are all really just tryina shit on each other -- everyone's bangin' every time they get the ball. It's a pretty dope synergy of four motherfuckers who are all nice. Crooked I, to me, has been getting better and better. He was always good, but he wasn't fully on my radar till the last couple years and it was like, 'Holy shit.' Oh No and myself have a project called Gangrene, and I was like, 'Oh, man, if Crooked I gets on this fourth verse he's really gonna bring it home.' It's on the album called Acts of Violence. Big up to Royce, too. Big up to the whole Detroit."

somebody asked Joey who killed it the hardest on the album & he replied that everybody killed it, but Crooked outshines all three of us on this album.

^no, no; Crooked I hasn't put out an album which somehow affects the music he puts out over the internet.

so no, he cannot be one of the greatest ever.

yes...rip to proof. dude could flow his ass off when he had to, especially on tracks with Shady....he didn't wanna sound like Lil Cease around Biggie LOL

and Royce back at the turn of the century had that same amazing skilll....i still like royce now but he's just not as good to me as he was on tracks with Slim
