The video for Knoc sucked? Man, that was one of the coolest videos made in the last few years, and one of the most original too.
-
What videos did Dre not appear in? "Lay Low," "Hate In Yo Eyes" and "Lookin At You."

I saw the video, it's great, but the song is sill nothing special (to me)... I can't see what the hype is for this guy. There should be more hype bubbling for Crooked I

I personally think Knoc is wack. Most of his hype comes from WCC which is made up of 90% snoop and dre fans that don't have very much knowledge of West Coast music unless it's dre/snoop or anyone they work with. I promise you if Knoc was some independant cat that was local these kids wouldn't mention him at all. If he was on No LImit, Tha Row or any other label that isn't snoop/dre they wouldn't mention him neither. Crooked I is way better it's just a shame all these kids on here know is snoop/dre and the hand full of people they work with. I'm not dissing them but it's alot more talented west artist that deserves the prop and hype over knoc.

Not me. I go coast 2 coast, label 2 label.
It all comes down to whats hot and whats not. And Knoc is dope indeed. Go ride dick somewhere else won't you?
-
Knoc is dope...He might not be the tightest lyricist but he has an original style and alot of charisma...I think being associated with Dre helps alot, but the fact is the West coast was struggling last year and fans are looking for someone new to break out rather than waiting for Snoop or Dre's next album to bring the West back...

It's funny because most of us are anticipating Crooked I just as much or even more than Knoc-turn'al.

chill

I think he average at best but like i said if he wasn't with Dre or Snoo yall wouldn't even mention my man.
-
personally, i ain't feeling knock....dude has the most annoying voice.....i just can't listen to him.....basically i'm anticpating crooked i A LOT MORE than knocks shit...only way i would listen to knock is so i can listen to DRE's BEATS....
i kinda agree with y-a-d-r's statment though about the whole "if dre/snoop wasn't involved with knock, he would be a sleeper" cuz he would be....i mean its obivious dre/snoop is a HUGE name in the industry and that ONLY helps knock it could NEVER hurt
-
Why yall keep sayin Knoc is with Snoop?
They never recorded anything, it's not like Snoop & Dre is in everything together, they even on different labels.
Knoc has the same advantage as Eminem, beats by Dre, and if that's what it takes to break through, fine for them.
Keep the hatin 'til the record get's released, ya aint heard shit yet.

Chill out don't get to touchy over someone opinion. I mean just because i said I think the guy is average don't mean Im hating it's my opinion. I was using dre/snoop as an example that if must of the rappers most like on here wasn't rapping with dre/snoop most wouldn't never give them a chance. Wow are you serious? I thought knoc/dre/snoop were on the same label ::) Read again i never said Knoc was on the same label as neither i said he works with them big diffrence homie. So you shouldn't take offence to one opinion unless you knoc himself. I agree with Minority his rhymes isn't all that and his voice is very annoying he sounds like he just got out of crack rehab. I know must wanna hear his album for the beats but music is more then beats depends on if someone has something worth saying on the mic. It's just my opinion and my two cents.

Lmao
i said he works with them big diffrence
He don't, it's still only Dre.
I don't take any offence, it's just that every time there's new talent coming through, there's always somebody who gotta hype it down. Just because Knoc debuts at the same time as Crooked I, doesn't mean we need to take any side, or judge who is the best. They both got a chance to prove themselves, and the way I see it, Knoc was smarter than Crooked, choosing to work with Dre, while Crooked got the odds against him, being on a smaller label with lesser known artist & producers.
-
personnaly i thinkt that knoc won't be as big as eminem was when he enter then industry.. but people mind is changing a lot not, maybe he will be "tha shit" of 2002
-
Yeah, Eminem-sales should be out of the question.
He aint controversial enough, lol.
Maybe he should start some beef with Crooked I, that would boost their record-sales. ;D

I wouldnt call Tha Row a smaller label because with Suge they not small. Now Knoc Turnel is on a small label right now. Only diffrence is he has Dre but that don't mean he will get sales. If that was the case his single off the Wash would have atleast helped the wash go gold. I'm not bringing him down I hope he sells the west need some good fresh talent. I'm not taking sides I like a combination of good beats and lyrics and I feel Crooked i has that. Knock will probably have the better beats but lyrically I think he wack. But who is to say Crooked I production will be total trash? I think we should hear it before we say his album production. I hope they both do good but I'm just not feeling knoc much at all.

it won't be enough , he betta get in beef with gay-z to get in everyday news
