8) this shit is CRACK!! 8) where dis from? ya, and when is the tape dropping w/ the rest of tha homages?
no offense dre-day, but... every-time i see that you post a comment 99.9% of the time you have nothing positive or pertinent to say or even add to the convo, not hatin', just sayin'... ??? :-\
it's my opinion that this instrumental has all the usual elements that make it DRE, although I'd have to admit there are a slew of other Focus... instrumentals that provide a more innovative Dre sound. but this works just as good.
all i wanna know is what is it exactly that you are expecting Dre-Day??
-
damn, we need tha whole damn "pay homage" already 8)
-
shiit this sounds like the Dr.Dre from 95-97 .. dope shiiit!!
-
the west coast's 2 best rapppers BY FARRRR
-
where is the full homage mixtape??
-
PROPS, definately sounds like dre's older sound he was going for 8)
-
Crooked should work with Dr.Dre!
-

Naww, I don't hear Xzibit on it, do you?
Focus said there will another Westcoast MC on the final version of the track, so one can only hope. 8)
-

-
Fuckin unbelieveble...DOC DRE IF YOU GUYS READ THIS, SIGN CROOKED I TO AFTERMATH!!!!

none taken.
but you're really judging a book by it's cover if you really feel that way.
seriously, if you're bothered by my tone, then you obviously can't read between the lines.
besides, my previous post didn't even go hard on the song, so i'm sure you could have picked a better one to make your point.
also, just because i didn't cheer, doesn't mean i'm being negative & nonconstructive, so your statement is wrong.
i'm just a critical music listener, there's nothing wrong with being honest, it's actually one of the things that i'm really good at.
sometimes i use sarcasm to express myself.
back to the song: well either an old Dre sound or the newest one would be fine to me.
this instrumental just didn't blow me away: that's just the feeling i get; perhaps it's the vibe.
Focus definitely dropped better instrumentals.
but this one isn't bad & i will definitely add the final version to my mp3 player

-
jay rock is whack
someone needs to tell him to lay off rapping.
-
good to see Crooked I dissing Wide Awake its about time someone did
yeah lets diss them for putting out out music no one would have ::)
-
They bought that shit legally so they can sell it, guess they will release Crookeds albums also, thats good for Crooked and for the fans. No need for Crooked to diss.

I think they already approached Crook with some kind of deals. Tho I rather see Dre approach him with some kind of deal or beat ;D
-
so this is crooked's pathetic attempt to be on detox or something?

Crooked claims in every song to own his own publishings. He should have no worries.

-
yeah knowin at the time he prolly signed all of his rights over to suge thinkin that would be a better move
prolly what danny boy, eastwood and others did too
did pac own all of his rights?
wasnt dre the only smart one affiliated wit death row that made the right choices as far as pub rights?

Crooked I should be happy for his followers that some of his DR material might finally see the day of light.
I don't give a damn about Crooked's income; I just want to hear the music.
-
Crooked went bonkers on this, the beat is insane too.
-
Crooked should work with Dr.Dre!
good to see Crooked I dissing Wide Awake its about time someone did
He must be mad at Lara for her claims that he's still signed with Death Row :)

Propz Very dope song 8)
-
focus should've just let Crooked pay homage alone.
-
Crooked blacked out on this.How anyone can hate on him is beyond me.
-
i also noticed some similarities with Bitches ain't shit
-
I find it really strange that you consistanly look for Crooked I threads and make numerous negative comments regarding him and his ability. You must not have much else to do to be spending so much time and effort doing this. There are lots of rappers that I dislike but it's a waste of my time to be making comment after comment about how rubbish they are. You are a very strange person
so this is crooked's pathetic attempt to be on detox or something?
-
i also noticed some similarities with Bitches ain't shit
I noticed the drums are similar

you're such a nerd
was that a shot @ me or Dre-Day? if it was @ me then I thank you, I do consider myself a music nerd of sorts... if it's @ Dre-Day then I commend him for his observations & astuteness as well, I can't say too much for a person who lacks similar observation... :-\ or even a person who blasts another person's analytical sensibility(s), your probably better left to the kind of shit that SLOWS the thought processes down... I haven't noticed your posts previously so I can't be too sure where your coming from or if you just clownin'? :laugh: :D !!
I dig this track more & more I listen to it, all the subtle details of the production value has that OG Dre feel to it from the Bass to the Keys to the Beat itself! 8) I'm just noticing that Crooked happens to stand out more in the track, imo. Rock's verse is Ok, maybe it's the flow that keeps me a tune to it. ;)
also props 4 the CDQ!! :o 8)
the cover is :-\ but that's coo tho that Kida hops on this, I'm a fan or a 'stan' if you wanna be a bitch about it! :P
