lol did they add more bass to dream big?
after a quick skip through the snippets this sounds extremely average from a production viewpoint. all boring, slow beats. the jim gittum track sounds the best by a long way. no doubt crooked is spitting heat but he needs to get on some better production.
fail!
i loved that komplex track on block obama 'swagga like crook' that was on some more chilled out ish but i cant get into the slower gangsta tracks like these unless they sound a lot better. will gve it a proper spin when it drops though.
Just like Block Obama Vol 1, this is very AVERAGE
Track 6 sounds boring, slow and average. If BOSS sounds like this, then I no longer care for it.
I'll download this when it leaks, 'American Me' sounds the best, appart from Dream Big.
Still Tha Row, So Damn Hood, Dollaz In My Hands, I Love The Ghetto, and Str8 Bosses are his 4 best tracks in that order, he should stay with that style.

So Damn Hood was Crooked I's biggest ever songs, it had massive buz in 2003 on hot 97 and online, crooks never had another song played on nyc radio, thats how good so damn hood is.
Block Obama 1 and 2 mixtapes just sound weak compared to So Damn Hood
I been in the pac scene for 11 yrs, I was an OG on MTF thats musicfantalk.com forums which was one of the 1st pac forums and I was on TB for 3 yrs before jon peters banned me from hitemup.com. many 2pac rare tracks that leaked are tagged with Rhyan D...well thas me.... i leaked a few rares bk in the days on TB....
hopefully if this sells well they will try to get B.O.S.S. out there
lol did they add more bass to dream big?
hey has any1 even heard of Kobe, Das of I-15, and GL Smooth (not to be confused with CL Smooth)
so they added Dream Big to this E.P.?........I was gonna cop that joint on itunes anyway...........it is really tempting to check these tracks out but I will wait 2 more days

LMAO, Still the row and So Damn Hood??? Are you serious?? Those 2 are considered two of Crooks worst by many...

I really dislike his mixtapes and it seems like his producers are really bad,all beats and completly all songs nearly sound like shit.What gives me hope is that all his Album Songs (Boom Boom Clap,N.W.A and Dream Big ) are really good songs and it looks like for his Album he will have dope trax,but his mixtapes sorry.......no beats no hooks nothin
^^link isnt workin
The tape sounds promising..

That's a pretty good beat. I don't think it would play in the club that well, but it beat pretty nice on some subs. I'd have to hear how Crooked I would rap to it to say whether or not it has mass appeal.

i think once i mix it, it'll blend a little better..
but thanks dude...
I'm a HUGE Crooked I fan...I wish him all the success in the world..
I hope this ep does units so a record label will smash out his album..he deserves it
CROOOOOKED I C.O.B!!!!!!!

That's tight, I wonder if any of these songs are going to get pushed as singles for BOSS.
Definatelly sound like they added more bass to "Dream Big". Sounds alot more polished.

Yeah, It deffinatelly made the song more complete.
So far my favorite tracks are "Circle Gang" and "On my mamma im a boss" and "Do It like me" . The production on "Circle Gang" is :o. Actully most of the production is really dope!

I think some of those beats give it nice "rebel voice". Those south beats aint bad either.
This is much better than volume 1, I didn't like that at all. It was like Pope Mobile of Bishop, boring as fuck.
I went through it once, but didn't think it was anything special. Maybe I need to listen to it with more attention because all the reviews I'm reading here are positive! Crooked I can't make it to disappoint on his first project he's making money on. That would be the biggest shame since Detox.
I dont fuck with iTunes, and im not in the US, where can I pay and download this? Any help would be greatly appreciated..
^^not sure but i know there are other places puttin it out, but definitly cop it and support crooked, if this has good sales we will see B.O.S.S. soon probably
On My Mama I'm A Boss

Do It Like Me
You Should Be From C.O.B.
American Me
^^were all very good
didnt care for Circle Gang & Dream Big Remix
Damn...I thought Circle Gang was banging! Sounds great in a system too. Definatelly one of my favs on the album. I thought Kobe came corect imo too..American Me, You Should be COB, Do It like me, Can I Talk to you, and On my momma Im a Boss are all dope too. Thought 3 bitches was a big let down, wasnt feelin knocs hook to much, nor the the beat. But I love the new Drum pattern on Dream Big. Sounds so much better now.On My Mama I'm A Boss

Circle Gang would have been bangin' if Kobe came 100% on the hook. He actually let me down on it a little bit.
kinda disapointed that knoc aint rappin on 3bitches
