Crooked I fans around the world clearly recognize the achievements that the emcee has been able to accomplish throughout his rocky, but ground breaking musical career. Now, the legendary emcee plans another milestone to place on his wall of achievements. The self-proclaimed, but rarely disputed "King of LA" has reached out to XXL to place his group Slaughterhouse on the cover of their magazine. While the group's album doe not hit shelves until August 11th, Crooked I believes this is a definite possibility and urges the magazine to take serious consideration. While XXL has not stated whether they will take Crooked I up on his offer, they have not publicly declined his wish either. We are urging Slaughterhouse fans to reach out to the magazine and show their support for the super-group as their input could certainly make a difference. Additional news that has been leaked from XXL involves Slaughterhouse's upcoming single titled "The One". In XXL's most recent news update, the magazine explains that Crooked I believes the single's music video could be leaked to media outlets as early as next week. While this information has not been confirmed by the group's label E1, we are keeping our fingers crossed. If you are interested in reading XXL's news update in full, please use the link provided below and keep it locked to The B.O.S.S. Board for additional information.

He shouldn't even have to ask,
1. If it's an actual movement that is creating proper buzz and ripples they should be covering it.
2. They should be covering it because it's dope.

Well considering last month had soulja boy ok da juiceman and gucci mane aka woundingbasementsuite. Having slaughterhouse on the cover would make Me respect xxl again after that last month
-
Yeah if dude was as big as everyone says he is he wouldn't have to ask to be on a magazine cover.
This shit made me laugh though.

What achievements? Ground breaking musical career? Another milestone? I didn't know dropping x amount of mixtapes makes this guy legendary. As far as milestones I think being signed to Death Row is the only one. But seriously, artists are judged by their albums, not internet mixtapes. Like I said before, until he drops an official album I'm not checking for Crooked.
-
Cough hater cough
-
Wrong. You can only keep the fans waiting for so long. I have no interest in his mixtapes because they are just throw away tracks. Give me a quality album that I can listen to and I'll buy it.
-
Hip-Hop Weekly was ground breaking.
-
Throw away tracks?I beg to differ.
-
Soulja Boy, Gucci Mane, Oj da Juiceman> Crooked I
-
Radiotube is that you?
-
Wrong. You can only keep the fans waiting for so long. I have no interest in his mixtapes because they are just throw away tracks. Give me a quality album that I can listen to and I'll buy it.
Young Boss 2 was throw away tracks?

we live in the internet/digital age
"albums" are so 1995 buddy

Yeah, describing Crooked like that is hilarious, and only looks embarrassing. Fanboyism at it's worst.
Praise like that should be reserved for Jay-Z, Nas, Pac, Dre, and similar, this was just awkward. :-\
-
XXL should put them on the cover, they show the people real rap & it creates buzz for what WILL be album of the
year decade. ;D 8)
-
Hip hop weely is not ground breaking. All those freestyles and mixtapes are him just trying to stay relevent. He fucked up by not dropping his album when Boom Boom Clap was getting play on the radio. I know I'm upsetting all you Crooked lovers by saying this but it's the truth. All bullshit aside, when is his solo album coming out? Since I've stopped checking for him I don't know what's going on with him.
-
^lol, i'll say it again Hip Hop Weekly's >>> anything most of your favorite rappers ever did. 8)
he is working on the Slaughterhouse album (although i think they finished it); then he should have an EP/Mixtape coming out shortly after that & then maybe his album late 4th quarter.
but i don't see how people can go & preach "Hip Hop is dead" & then go & knock an artist like Crooked I; he is everything anybody could want out of a rapper & people still find a way to hate.
i don't want to hear "he or they are ruining rap" when you elect not to be a fan of an artist of Crooked I's caliber. :-\
-
i gotta say
i'd rather have 52 songs for FREE than pay 15 bucks for a CD with 15 songs
LOL @ the haters
-
^15 songs with an intro (with no music), a skit or two & then 3 fillers, 5 average tracks & 5 dope tracks (unless of course you were talking about a Crooked I album)
which would have 15 great/classic tracks. ;) ;D 8)
-
I rarely listen to hip hop today I only check for certain artists here and there (Crooked I used to be one of them) so I could give a fuck if hip hop is dead. The thing about this is that they are calling him a legend and he hasn't dropped an album in his career. You can drop all the mixtapes you want but you'll never be a legend from that. A mixtape has no structure, let's see if Crooked can carry his incredible work through an album. That's what I had been waiting for. I stopped checking for him after he started dropping those mixtapes every other month.
The point I'm making is mixtapes ain't shit. Recording music for an album is different than putting together a mixtape. Anyone can throw some songs together and call it a mixtape. Punk ass kids do it all the time on the internet and then they call themselves DJs. Do you think Dre is thinking "I can put this shit on a mixtape" for all his beats that don't make Detox? No he's working hard to put together a well structured album. Crooked I just puts out mixtapes every month not making it the BEST it can be, because he is just trying to stay relevant.
I went to his myspace a while back and listened to "If you ever see me" or whatever and that shit is garbage. The beat is wack ass fuck its like a 3 second loop. Musically his shit sucks. He's got tight raps but he's never had beats. Saying he's had a ground breaking musical career just makes me laugh because he's not even a musician he's a rapper. Big difference between the two.
-
^i don't even know how to respond to that, i mean if the shit on the mixtape's are classic, why does it matter if he just called it an "album"? ???
also, if you REALLY think that "If You Ever Hear Me" is "garbage", it makes you wonder how biased the things you say are.
he kills that beat & the shit he has to say is tight as fuck!
also, i don't know if you heard his verses on these Slaughterhouse songs, but their sick too; really what is their to hate about Crooked I?

^15 songs with an intro (with no music), a skit or two & then 3 fillers, 5 average tracks & 5 dope tracks (unless of course you were talking about a Crooked I album)

the only rapper who was guaranteed to drop true heat each album was 2pac
2pacalypse now: 10/10
strictly4mynigz: 8/10
thug life: 9/10 (not enough songs thanks to Interscope and Iovene being pricks)
M.A.T.W.: 10/10
AEOM: 9/10 (really 10/10 but the song "whatz ya phone #" sucks so bad i can't call this a perfect cd...not a big fan of "rather be ya nigga" or "heaven aint hard to find" either)
makaveli: 10/10
and even pac's posthumous shit was banging until Amaru started the massive raping of his music in 2001 on UTEOT
RUSD and Still I Rise were bangers too.
as for a Crooked album, I really consider Young Boss vol 2 to be an album. and Crooked's mixtapes > any album that has came out in the 2000's except for Non Phixion "the future is now" and Circle of Tyrant's self titled LP

Anyone can tell the difference between and album and a mixtape. Artists save their best shit for their albums. I don't know why you guys insist on calling me a hater. I've backed up all the statements I've made and I don't know why you're calling me biased. Did you even read my post dude? I said he's got tight raps, but his beats are wack as fuck resulting in that garbage song "If you ever see me." When Crooked I drops an album I'll check for him. I'm gonna check out his Slaughterhouse shit when it drops, hopefully we get some quality music
-
I agree that Crooked-I needs to release an album. That is, what the idea of an album is - a collection of hot tracks with original production that may or may not be conceptually tied together.
If he does it for free and releases it as a street album, I don't care. If he does it to make a lot of money and release it in stores that's fine. Having a cd in stores means nothing. What's the point if it doesn't enhance his revenue?
I understand where you're coming from but I think you have a major weakness in your argument. Mainly that if an artist produces material for a street tape it's not that good because it didn't make the final album cut. I don't agree with you. You're not factoring in a lot of information like CORPORATE MARKETING and the way cd's are created today.
None-the-less, I agree that I would like to see the product of Crooked-I's mentality if he created something that would make or break him like the way the game used to be.
I don't think If You Ever Hear Me is garbage but I would like to hear what he can do by himself over entirely original production. Hip-Hop weekly hinted at great ideas but if he can't mold that into a classic song then I can't say he deserve the classic title.
I think Hip-Hop Weekly was revolutionary because he marketed himself effectively on the inteternet consistently unlike any rapper has done before.
Edit: Yes, If You Ever Hear Me is original production but I don't think it's great production. I think what he had to spit was dope. It wasn't groundbreaking.
-
great point
the marketing standpoint is, he gets free studio time, takes a free beat and uses it to double his already growing fanbase
i'd PREFER for him to drop an album before his career is over lol - but i won't fault him for not, it took non phixion 7 years and 4 labels to drop their first release
Crooked's gave me atleast 500 songs for free...all i've had to pay for was his DVD and a vinyl here or there 8)
-
And the point of doubling your fanbase is..... to release an album they will buy! So where's the album? You gonna keep building your fanbase with mixtapes forever?

I agree, although musically his material was good on Tha Row IMO
-

Yes, in the long run, you're right that is the major point to doubling your fan base. It's clear if Crooked-I was simply in it for money he wouldn't have stayed in the game this long.

real talk
unlike all the wack peices of shit who use rap to get rich while not really caring about the well being of it, Crooked is doing the opposite

maybe back in the day i'd agree with that; but generally artists put what they think people will buy on their album.
maybe not Crooked I, but even he went to Akon (when he was the biggest hook-man) for Dream Big; a reported "first single" off of his "album", so he went mainstream for his hook for his "album".
i guess i didn't read your other post closely enough, i didn't see you were just disappointed in the beat; which i guess i can understand, even though i thought it was a banger.
Crooked will drop a little "somethin', somethin'" before he retires. ;)

four perfect, classic albums. 8)
but don't you dare hate on "Rather Be Ya N.I.G.G.A.! :P
i was lovin' that song, such a smooth & dope feel to that track. 8)

i have to ask you though, were "suckin' their dicks so hard"; but where do we make reference to Crooked or MC Juice once?
in everything you just quoted, you're the only one to even mention one of them lol.
not really a Crooked I groupie anyway, just respect the great music he puts out; but for a new guy you sure do know a lot about everybody already, huh? ::)

yeah, but you have to understand; he has nowhere to go with this.
he came into a good thread in progress, another debate about Crooked I's status as a rapper; what else is new in this section? :P
came in, didn't give any input at all; just talked his shit; realized it & went to the "sucking dick" references lol.
i swear, i'd make a bet that you couldn't name me ten Dubcc members that haven't been called "faggots" or accused of "sucking dick" lmao.

and the point being??? i don't remember anybody i saw on Leno or Kimmell over the years but you had to be either cool or just hella famous to be on their show. what do you think you're trying to accomplish here? you're talking to a board of people who check for Crooked I you clown. you ever go on Jimmy Kimmell live?? if so let me know and i'll apologize but until then you bring less to this thread than S.C. the Homo did.
-

Exactly no ones gonna remember him on that show so why would you bring it up like it's a major accomplishment? Suge was the only reason he was there, dude like I said it's not like Crooked got to make an appearance because he's recognized as a great rapper. He got to tag along because they wanted to hear from the owner of the best record label in the 90s you simpleton. And thank you for proving my point, no one outside the internet knows who Crooked I is you idiot.
-
but them muffuccaz dont know who is good and who isnt
the fuckin yankee player (who now records muzik) was on huckabee's show performin
was he good?
he was prolly aite, nuthin special or "great"
if them muffuccaz knew what great was, they would know bout crooked
if them muffuccaz knew that pappa diddy pap didnt write his own records, they would get the person behind the scenes doin the writin not pappa diddy papa who does the easy part (and yeah they want well known person) but the muffuccaz dont know who put in more work and made it easier for pappa diddy pap so he can go onto shows etc.. and show off as if he put in work
same goes for crooked

lol at Crooked I begging for magazine cover. That's just pathetic.

lol at Crooked I begging for magazine cover. That's just pathetic.
where did he beg??
-
Yeah if dude was as big as everyone says he is he wouldn't have to ask to be on a magazine cover.
This shit made me laugh though.
Crooked I fans around the world clearly recognize the achievements that the emcee has been able to accomplish throughout his rocky, but ground breaking musical career. Now, the legendary emcee plans another milestone to place on his wall of achievements.
What achievements? Ground breaking musical career? Another milestone? I didn't know dropping x amount of mixtapes makes this guy legendary. As far as milestones I think being signed to Death Row is the only one. But seriously, artists are judged by their albums, not internet mixtapes. Like I said before, until he drops an official album I'm not checking for Crooked.
LOL. so true

lol at Crooked I begging for magazine cover. That's just pathetic.
where did he beg??
right there in the thread title where he ASKS to be put on. ::)
people will hate, just a part of life lol.

yeah this place is full of haters - did you see that concert thread??

He shouldn't even have to ask,
1. If it's an actual movement that is creating proper buzz and ripples they should be covering it.
2. They should be covering it because it's dope.
Are they getting a lot of buzz outside of this site? I haven't heard them mentioned that much on the other places I troll---uh I mean frequent.

yeah, Joey & Crooked have two of the biggest online fanbases; both of their websites are buzzin' right now; but anyone who follows rap close enough like most people on this board know about Slaughterhouse, know they're on the way & know they're about to take over. 8)

Xxlmag.com have showed slaughterhouse major love.Just read all the comments under the news article from the site.Everyone on the site agreed with crook that they want this to happen

There's a big diff between an album and a mixtape. Classic mixtapes come out every year, it takes a lot more to make a great album. I'll say this right now and I'm not being a hater because I have his weekly freestyles and 4 of his mixtapes. None of Crooked's mixtapes would have been a classic album, not even Young Boss vol 2.

I'm sorry but nas is not better then pac.I love nas but he isn't on pacs level.No rapper has ever influenced the game the way pac has.He has everything,classic albums,world wide influence,incredible songs.Nas is a great but he's inconsistent.

& i am counting 4 perfect classic albums, with the rest near classic to Illmatic lol.
even if Illmatic was one of the best albums ever too.

If Pac didn't die he wouldn't be anywhere as famous as he is today. Same with Biggie.

depends on where he took his career.
i think Biggie would have sold out with Diddy & started to make club joints.
i don't know about Pac, he always tried to keep it real street & hood though.

pac kept getting better with every album

Ironically this is the reason I am saying Crooked I isn't one of the greatest in another thread.

LOL, but Nas isn't one of the best rappers ever?
Nas is top 5; i am saying Crooked is top 50.
song for song, bar for bar, Crooked I is one of the 50 best rappers to ever do it.

Nas > Pac
im a huge Nas fan but this is a joke...only thing Nas has that can compare to Pac's last 3 albums (MATW, AEOM and Makaveli) is Illmatic...which was only 9 songs and 40 minutes long
we all heard the Nas disses on Against all odds, but Nas even stole Pac's top production group (Live Squad produced "take it in blood" and "silent murder" in '95)
-
Crooked I has been my favorite for a long time but I agree with what your saying in that thread for the most part.See crooked I is a better rapper then a lot and for Me better then common.BUT he doesn't have an album and doesn't have the history of someone like common.Crooked can't be considered one of the greatest until he puts out good albums.Theirs lots of great rappers that can't put together a good album let alone a classic.Where has a mediocre rapper like say Jim Jones can actual put together a decent album.So while crooked may in fact be better then most as far as skills he needs to put out quality albums before he gets the respect he deserves.
-
^na like Hack said, we have enough Crooked I music to make 5 great albums.
i don't care what you have to say about it at all, i know for a fact if you're somewhat of a Crooked I fan & you put all the music he has made on albums all of you would love it & call him one of the greats; just because it is labeled as a "Mixtape Song", it doesn't mean the song is bad.
put when people raise arguments, everybody takes a side & it's nearly impossible to get people to switch, so it is what it is.

thug life
me against the world
makaveli
you can't really IMPROVE these without adding extra songs 8)
all eyez... would've been better if Pac took off "whatz ya phone #" and "heaven aint hard to find" and replaced them with "Changed Man OG" and "Don't Go To Sleep OG"
-
I would say pac has two classic albums in Me against the world and makavelli with the rest of his albums being good to great.

Me Against The World
All Eyez On Me
Makaveli
2Pacalypse Now
& Hack had Thug Life which was a near classic for me lol.
so it's debatable which of his albums are his classic ones. :laugh:
-

go re-listen to 2pacalypse Now
I personally think it's his best, besides Makaveli. too bad Pac cut Days of a Criminal :( :(

2pacalypse now = nowhere near classic
me against the world = classic imo
all eyez on me = classic with some throwaway songs
makaveli = classic
oh yeah, since you like chamillionaire i'll just discredit anything you have to post.
-
cha > gucci
-
All eyez on Me almost deserves the classic status because it started the double CD trend and the production was so far beyond anything else released at that time.Compare that album to the albums that came out the same year and its the only one that still sounds fresh today
-
^be my guest, but if everybody did that i would have more cred for obvious reasons. ;D
cha > gucci
but have your opinon on those four albums & compare them to any four Nas albums.
Illmatic = Me Against The World & then Pac takes it from their.
-
cha > gucci
and? lol unlike you i don't make thread after thread about why one rapper > another. i don't have a history of being a groupie like you do on a daily basis

maybe in your opinion.
imo... Illmatic >>>> than any Pac album

I Am = 7 Day Theory
All Eyez on Me >> rest of Nas albums
God's Son >> 2Pacalypse Now and Strictly 4 my Niggaz

depends on where he took his career.
i think Biggie would have sold out with Diddy & started to make club joints.
i don't know about Pac, he always tried to keep it real street & hood though.
Pac went from an MC that spit about real shit to a watered down version of himself. He got too emotional and caught up in his self-created thug lifestyle. Shit ain't that deep. He made his life a lot worst then it had to be, consistently focusing on the negative.
People love the double cd but I think it's overrated.
I love how people criticize Nas as being a fraud when Pac's REAL lifestyle is even more questionable.
I got love for them both but Pac stans always annoy me.
-
I don't get how you can call the makavelli album watered down with tracks like krazy,blasphemy and white manz world
-
I am is nowhere near makavelli
well if you want to go by the source, they both got 4.5 mics I believe.
-
I don't get how you can call the makavelli album watered down with tracks like krazy,blasphemy and white manz world
For me, there's this general feeling with Tupac after a certain point in his career when he caught up in too much bullshit. So, I say he's watered down from that perspective. His time spent was focusing on diss records rather then releasing more of his real records which he still recorded but most were never officially released until post-humous.
I heard he was going to switch up his career again and go back to all real shit and focus on being more community active like in his youth but that's hearsay.
I just shake my head at the shit he got himself into or found himself involved in. He thought he was untouchable. No one is untouchable. I'd rather hear Ghetto Gospel then Against All Odds.
-
imo... Illmatic >>>> than any Pac album
Stillmatic = Me Against the World
I Am = 7 Day Theory
LOL are we listening to the same Stillmatic??? ::)
and i am? LOL

I understand what your saying but still those 3 songs I listed were deeper then anything other rappers were capable of
-
I am is nowhere near makavelli
well if you want to go by the source, they both got 4.5 mics I believe.
that doesn't mean shit.
i agree, i am is nowhere near makaveli.

tell him hes gotta play by the rules and do what intersope has been doing for years.
pay for it.

LOL are we listening to the same Stillmatic??? ::)
and i am? LOL
Stillmatic is considered an undisputed classic by the hip hop community (fuck if I care what one user on a west coast board thinks). It is one of the rare albums to receive the 5 mics (this is back when the source meant something).
By the way, the only reason I started argument was because I know everyone here is a Pac fan, and as I thought you would, you are comparing their albums to determine who is better.
Fucking hypocrites trying to say Crooked is one of the greatest without even dropping an album, but every other rapper you judge on their albums.
-
i think Biggie would have sold out with Diddy & started to make club joints.
Started to make club joints? Have you actually listened to any of Biggie's albums?

like autotuned, Lil' Wayne on the hook club (bitch-made) joint. ;)
-
But who can say if that's selling out for someone like Big? I mean, people look at Pac and Big through different eyes than they do with the other artists of that era who are still alive today. I mean, to most people in 1996, doing a fucking R&B song with K-Ci and Jo-Jo or 112 was some sell-out shit. Rappers were all doing these collabos with R&B artists. It was a hundred mother fuckers doing it and was nowhere near groundbreaking. Now, ten years later, we've all grown up on it and it sounds great to our fucking ears but the old school heads who loved hip-hop before that, it was garbage. People wanted that raw sound like Wu-Tang or Nas' Illmatic album.
