I'd rather hear a Rawer Crooked I spitting in heavy freestyle mode (minus Say Hi To The Bad Guy) than his later commercial attempts with songs rattling 'C.O.B niggggga', 'Treacherousssss', 'Circle of Bosses' 'Demitrius', 'Horse Shoe', and naming himself in newer songs. I can't count how many times you hear "Crooked I/Crooked/Young Crooked" from himself on a verse. It's like listening to gay advertisements rather than real raw rap recordsDon't get me wrong, he's still a hot MC, and hasn't lost his writing ability, but to me IMO he's just lost his colorful appeal he had at Tha Row, which originally led me to become a fan awaiting his album. A bunch of shelved albums, canceled release dates and a bunch of dull, cheaply produced beat mixtapes later, and his re-used "steretype gangsta" vocabulary being used in his newer material made me loose a lot of interest in himThere was a poll on this last year, and Untouchable came out on top. Now wouldn't be any different

They'd be the first to download the latest 2Pac leaks in a second. Effex should be the only one bothered about this. People are too overly concerned about his "friendship" with Snoop I personally couldn't give a shyt if they fell out tomorrow. (which they wont) Crooked made a name, fanbase, released songs, mixtapes, slaughterhouse etc. all without Snoop, and even being 'cool' with Snoop has done zilch for him. Where was Crook on Malice? Where is he on more malice? Crooked I doesn't need a Soulja Boy collaborating sell out, who's watered down into girly bubble gum pop like a Snoop Dogg to make his career take offIF anything this can only be a thing good. It'll spark controversy through out the net and give Crooked a lot of exposure, and once Crook explains that it's a very very old diss back to when Snoop was dissing Death Row, they'll both be cool about it, and it may drive towards them being pushed to do a collaboration to prove their sincerity, and to die down the negative flames of the diss, because Snoop is not innocent in this either, but both are grown men 2pacs not around t osay "hey guys don't leak these songs"crook isBut it's well documented that 2Pac was against bootlegs. Even early on, the video of him going off on one because some Asian guy with a stall had a bootleg 2Pac tape, and he erupted demanding he take all his tapes off the stall before he trash it.The point is, forum members will gladly download the latest 2Pac leaks despite his opposed attitude towards it, but whine about Crooked I leaks? Why? The Death Row tracks, and leaks are what built his fan base in the first place. He shouldn't be too critical on the whole idea of his earlier work hitting the public ear. Ask any Crooked I fan what they would prefer to hear. BOSS or the untouchable album, and the majority would say the Untouchable album, or Death Row equivalentI'd rather hear BOSS than Untouchable

I can't really fault him for "Untouchable" not dropping. That was pretty much due to Suge's weirdness. But Crooked said he was going to release "B.O.S.S." for free, months and months ago. Since he plans to start over for "Million Dollar Story," I don't know why he doesn't just do that. People have been wanting to hear "B.O.S.S." for years now. I hope he eventually follows through on what he said.

Now wouldn't be any differenti'd rather hear shit like "If you ever hear me" and "W's Down" and "can i talk to you?"
id put money on it that your wrong...people want new crooked muzik cuz its better than gucci, wacka, jim etc...but the death row era crooked....untouchable for real and thats what most want
Id rather hear the albums he did on 19th street records with big c style then the deathrow stuff.Thats when he was just raw skill.Songs like uh oh and niggaz got game get heavy play from me.I only hope one day we get to hear all the albums hes recorded over the years.I think hes a lot more polished as an artist and well rounded now then he was back then.
