is that it's so damn commercial and pop. ;)
-
What's the difference between this song and "How Do U Want It" by 2Pac?
-
2Pac! ;D
-
Any song sold for profit is commercial, in my opinion. Nothin' but a g thang, which founded deathrow, won rolling stone's single of the 90's award, for ALL music. That's pretty commercial.
-
lol for a gangster track it is pretty... ummm will smithish
-
u gotta start somehow, to sell records the best way is to go pop. its a money thing, it wont mean anything to the rapper if he doesnt get respect in the streets, he will be gettin money of his "popness"
-
When youre so damn good.
Anybody need a commercial track to start of their album, just ax Eminem, Snoop, Jigga, etc. It's just a good business-move, to get the word out on tha streetz.
-
Yea it's commercial like Snoop Dogg the single frm Last Meal, X by Xzibit, My Name Is, Forgot About Dre should I go on?
-
i ain't hating on crooked i but this was blatently a generic pop effort
and i hardly would call x or what's my name part 2 pop songs
-
I think my main concern is Sisqo being on the track. Suge constantly clowns Dre for being "gay", yet brings the openly fruity Sisqo onto the first single of Crooked-I...
Sure..that makes sense.............
-
pop??? yall callin this song pop??? it aint no different from pac's -how do you want it..or any other westcoast song that blows up for that matter
-
What's the difference between this song and "How Do U Want It" by 2Pac?
KC & JOJO aint fruity like SISKO
CROOKED I is hella tight......
even on this song.....
but havin SISKO on there is like a complete true contradiction......
-
I don't think it's all that bad a track, it's tolerable; nothing like what Kurupt did with "It's Over"... now that's WACK!!
-
KC & JOJO aint fruity like SISKO
But how does that effect the music? It's the same type of song. They both are singing R&B hooks.
-
I could give a fuck if Sisqo is gay or not (he never ever said he was, ya'll have been hearing rumours). Anyway, he does have talent, the guy has been very successful with Dru hill even if his solo career has flopped of late.
Now, it is odd that Suge would fuck with Sisqo, but i think right now Suge is just trying to make hits, and Crooked i has one right here.
-
WAIT WAIT WAIT
the last thing i mean by fruity is his sexuality
(on this post :D )
im talkin bout the kind of material he drops
let me put it 2 like this......
ive had a cupple baby-makin sessions
with the opposite sex 2 sum K-CI & JOJO.......
ever since JODECIs 4EVER MY LADY
theyre more like SOUL than R&B 2 me.......
i can say that ive never done that 2 a SISKO
(or DRU HILL 4 thsat matter)
CD.....2 put it real simple......
i juss dont like the brand of music he puts out aight?
and this is fukin CROOKED I were talkin bout....
the last thing in the world i want is a collabo
-
pop??? yall callin this song pop??? it aint no different from pac's -how do you want it..or any other westcoast song that blows up for that matter
crooked i is tight on this song ain't no one denying that but the whole rest of the song is whack as fuck
1. the beats
how do you want it's beat is a strib club beat but produced fairly well and is sequenced almost perfectly
so damn hood's beat sound's like a dated mid 90's pop song from that one group Immature (now known as IMX) and made on a cheap casio keyboard and is mixed and mis sequenced HORRENDOUSLY bad
2. shelf life
6 years later and i'm still listening to how do you want it
a couple of weeks later and i dont' even have a desire to listen to so damn hood
3. the r&b croonies on the hooks
kci and jo jo stemmed from jodeci....and unless you lived in a cave for most of your life you should know that jodeci was one of the best soul r&b groups of the early mid 90's who could really sing
sisqo DOES have talent but has fallen off like snoop, back when dru hill came out sisqo was THE man,but now he's done a 180 and has sold himself short and sounds like a black nick carter and is nothing more than a pop robot nowadays, the Dru Hill sisqo was the Dogg food kurupt, now they're both ....well "it's over" when it comes to quality
Crooked i is dope, probably the best WC mc behind Del , X, Rass Kass BUT this song is poppy like the flowers in the wiz of oz
-
Its a tight song
-{bLaDe}

actually, there are a few differences between so damn hood and how do you want it. first of all, 2pac did that song, as opposed to crooked i. another difference would be that this song is supposed to introduce crooked i to the world, whereas how do u want it was just another chapter in the work of a legend. also, 2pac's poppish song wasn't titled "so damn hard" or "so damn street" or something, making it contradictory. but the biggest difference between the two is that "how do u want it" is actually a good song. :D

ITS A GOOD SONG STOP HATING
SOUNDS LIKE EMINEM
LEAST ITS NOT WACXK

first of all, 2pac did that song, as opposed to crooked i.
