if they release his album and it flops that can still help him more than it hurts him

I agree with what most of y'all said.  The thing is talent doesn't equal success and as unfortunate as that is, it's just a part of life.  I think Treacherous waited too long and the buzz that Crook had once he first signed with them has died down.  Timing is everything, and it just seems the time's never been on Crook's side...so they should either drop it and push it as much as they can, or he should just go indy and fuck with someone like Koch.  An indy album is better than not having shit out and better than just having a mixtape.  Isn't it funny how the dudes whom you want more music from--you can't get, but the one's whom you don't give a fuck about to hear--all have tons of albums? lol

he could drop an album, the problem is he isn't a rapper that's gonna 10x platinum which is what he probably thinks he can do.. his label & him need to realise this and drop the album, even though he's only gonna hit 1x platinum at the MOST

Basically for a first album, he aint gonna push major units, he has a fan-base now that isn't going to get much bigger before the album, unless he can drop something more commercial to attract more heads, but it's unlikely.

It's another wasted year of his career, and I'm pretty sure we won't hear anything til 2006. A mixtape will be good, yea, but everyone wants the album now, and people will start losing interest, (if some haven't already), and that will harm his sales even more, cos people will just download his shit on the internet, and the internet's probably Crooked's main fan-base.

yeah im losing intrest, it's always the same..
coming soon! but really really soon!! so soon!!
and then they are hyping stuff up saying its classic material and such such while to me it is really not..
it isn't all crooked's fault (maybe not even his fault) but that has nothing to do with it, the results are the same: lots of coming soons, almost nothing released

but if he releases something i'll check it out no doubt.. i just dont have my hopes up anymore
que sera sera..

edit: i also stopped checking their site, the vibe over there is kinda  :-\

fuck dropping another mixtape. who wants to hear crooked i rap over industry beats, its fucking time for an album. he dropped enough material that could have created  a buzz and another mixtape aint gonna help it.

i dunno why westcoast artists r so stupid when it comes to mixtapes
theyt drop a mixtape only 1 every 6 months
yall remember how 50, mike jones and game flooded the streets with mixtapes?
crooked i needs to flood the streets with like 4 or 5 mixtapes and freestyles and radio drops and singles
unless he aint talented enough to record so much material

CLASSIC.... west is BACK

Crooked I is gonna have to do a run of Radio, Press and Net Interviews to get this hype back. He's gonna have to put out a TRUE banger to follow up "Boom Boom Clap" and no... "Cali Boyz" is not that song. He needs to call up Chino, Ras Kass etc. Get on some shit with them. Call up Khalil and get some beats from him. That's Crooked's core style, not this Scott Storch shit he's getting.
