Crooked I interview up at dubcnn.com, head over to peep!
« on: April 26, 2003, 11:01:53 AM »
That's right, we recently talked to Tha Bad Guy Crooked I himself. The Death Row inmate talked about the old days with Big C-Style and the Wake Up Show, Dr. Dre offering him a contract back in the day, the DPG/Row beef, Murder Inc, his overused "freestyle", his Lost Tapes album and of course his own solo record.

check out the interview here: http://www.dubcnn.com/interviews/crookedi

Most hip-hop is now keyboard driven, because the majority of hip-hop workstations have loops and patches that enable somebody with marginal skills to put tracks together,...

Unfortunately, most hip-hop artists gravitated towards the path of least resistance by relying on these pre-set patches. As a result, electric guitar and real musicians became devalued, and a lot of hip-hop now sounds the same.

I dont really like Crooked I as a person.  Hes got some hot rhymes but damn, this guy is arogant as fuck!

I just hope death row puts his fucking album out soon so we can see whats up.

Tight..thanks bro...



i am personally looking forward to the much hyped album... not only that but to compare the dpg release and death row release...

after reading it over again, got a lot of respect for him, especially with meeting Pac's mom before remixing "2 of America's Most Wanted"

Crooked I is a humble guy. Maybe a little disillusioned about Death Row making Dre Snoop & all of em (Dre only needed Suge for the money to get started & to help get Eazy E off his back, Dre built Tha Row with his music on Chronic as well as helping & educating others like Snoop Warren G Daz Kurupt Rage), but you gotta understand what do you expect him to say, its like expecting a movie star who stars in a particular movie to speak against that movie

props to dubcnn for not holding back questions that some interviewers are scared to ask, like about death Row using Murder Inc, the J-Lo porno, etc etc

You guys get heaps of great interviews. Nice to see a real West Coast rap site that is solid that has great sources & seems to be as solid as the sites dedicated to East Coast rap

Been meaning to say that for a while. Keep up the EXCELLENT WORK

real nice interview

Independent, major, it depends on what they workin' with. I'm they typa dude that could go and stop and the liquor store in Watts, and the dude come up to me like "man, I got a demo package, if you could get on it, it would help the record companies give me a look, I ain't got no money, but I got a studio in my lil bedroom, and I got a microphone booth in my closet". And I'm like let's go. So that's just how I am. Now if somebody come with a fat ass Universal distribution deal, and they push up on me and they say we need a verse, then I'ma be like "ok cut the check!"

he gets my respect for that
