Whats going on with the new album?

If you could form a group by picking 1 rapper from the east,1 from the south and 1 from the midwest, who would you pick?

Do you still keep in touch with Eastwood and Spider Loc?

How do you feel about the current state of the westcoast and hiphop in general?

Are you doing the interview? What website/magazine are you working for?
Anyway, here are my questions. They're non-hip-hop related for a change, but nonetheless interesting in my opinion:

1) What do you think of the HBO drama series The Wire?

2) What kind of litterature are you into the most? Crime fiction, detective stories, ...

3) Have you ever read any books by George Pelecanos (co-writer on The Wire)

Thanks!

Do you think the West will ever regain its crown or will it always be in the shadow of the Death Row days?

Do you think its harder for West coast rappers to blow up than say East coast or Southern rappers?

Is there such thing as the 'New West', what does it stand for? Are the 'new' west coast rappers looking to change people's opinion on the west, change the subject matter or is it purely just a new group of rappers that have all come onto the scene at once?

Do you think anyone from the New West will ever get to the status of Cube or Snoop or Dre?

Do you think anyone from the New West will reach the same popularity as The Game or Snoop?

Thanks...

1.Does he every plan on releasing those 45 tupac songs he got a hold off.

2. Is the album coming out this year.  Yes Or No.  Simple Question. No bullshit.

props 4 this... here are my questions:

-- is BOSS still dropping in '07?
-- how many songs will be on BOSS?
-- is Young Boss, Vol. 3 mixtape still dropping in August?
-- what kind of executive leverage do you have @ Treacherous Records now that you're Vice President? do you have more control in negotiating when and how your projects get released?
-- who else besides Crook & One-2 are on Treacherous Records? Knocturnal? Big Syke? K. Young?
-- when can we expect to hear some new Horse Shoe Gang & On-One Squad material?
-- what guest artists do you have featured on BOSS? in a past interview back in April, you mentioned that an East Coast artist would be on BOSS, but couldn't name the person for legal reasons at the time. can you name that artist now?  rumor awhile back had it that Bun B. will also be on BOSS, is this true?
-- besides Jim Gittum, Scott Storch & Rick Rock, who else contributed production duties to the BOSS album?  in your last radio interview, you mentioned trying to holla @ Kanye West for some beats... did you get anything from him?


co-sign ALL of those ;)

I'm assuming this is different from the one being conducted by the dude at WCR... but the questions are the same. Sorry for the long list, but I guess it gives you guys a good pool to draw from now, LOL.

-Who are the producers of B.O.S.S.? Is it just Jim Gittum and Komplex or can we expect some big names?

-Has he contacted Just Blaze since the kind words he spoke on Crook?

-When is Young Boss 3 dropping?

-Any features on B.O.S.S.?

-Does he plan on working with Chino XL again?

-Would he be down for a double album or DVD coming with B.O.S.S.?

-He stated he's working on releasing Say Hi To The Bad Guy, is that still happening?

-How much longer is Hip Hop Weekly and does he plan on making an official compilation for them?

-Does he plan on working with Eastwood and other former Death Row label mates in the future?

-How would he respond to Bun B asking him to stay away from beef... as far as DMX and Snoop Dogg go?

-What other outside business other than music does Crook conduct, I heard he had a jewelry store in one freestyle and he was pushing Roller Coaster Rims at one point?

-What has kept him going after so long without a debut album on shelves?

-How long is he planning on holding off distribution deals and does he feel like making them wait would turn them off to doing business?

-Does he personally read the forums?

-Any plans for an NWA "New West" megamix?

-Is it true that most of the songs on B.O.S.S. are already heard and released like "My Life, "Boom Boom Clap", "Cali Boyz" and a few from YB2 or are we getting a CD of all new music (excluding NWA and Straight Bosses)? He SHOULD have enough material to give us all original content.

-Out of all the music he's recorded over his career which is his favorite?

-Has he found it difficult/stressful to keep his name in rotation and continue to attract a new audience after so many set backs?

-Can we expect all new music on the Crooked I Live audio CD?

-Does he still keep in touch with Sway and Tech?

It's seems that he has built a lot of buzz with the hiphop weekly's than all his years on death row, why is that?
Death row definately have the marketing resources to put him the spotlight but did they ever use it?
Does he thinks that the Game respresents the new west?
Who is he working wth on the new album? artist? producers?
Will he try to incorporate the new west sound in his music with collabos up and coming new west artist and producers?

Na man... all these Crooked I interviews are no where to be found. Maybe they were conducted and Crook is waiting for the right time to release them. I honestly have no idea though.

I was thinking that now that the first gears of publicity are set in motion that Crook will start answering the "tough" questions now regarding the album since we are all going to find out sooner or later. I just want to have it in my hands in Oct. I could care less about the fancy appearances as long as the album is a banger... we been waiting for what... 10 years?

it's funny you should say that, because i was thinking the same thing... now that this so-called press release got released today, maybe all of those interviews will come out now??

i remember Nima mentioned working on a recent interview for the Summer Of Heat edition... and then Cyrrus1 from WCRydaz.com supposedly hooked up with Crook for a video interview 2 weeks ago... Shake from hiphopdx.com asked us to post questions to him 2 months ago... then Johnny1000 said he just wrapped his interview up last week with Crook, so it's like they're all within a few weeks time of each other, with the exception of hiphopdx.com... then there's been a rumor swirling around about Crook supposedly going to be on the cover of XXL magazine for the October issue, which coincidentally is the same month that he's releasing B.O.S.S., but who knows... we'll just have to wait and see how this will all unfold over the next two months.

XXL Cover? Damn, I missed that rumor... that'd be insane promo! I dunno fellas I think this is the year, I don't see what's holding him back now and to be honest with Hip Hop Weekly he's grabbed the attention of a whole new generation of fans, he's just got to get ONE album under his belt and then he won't have to deal with the bullshit anymore.

yeah man... that dude who goes by the alias September 7th is the one spreading that rumor around... he's somehow affiliated with DJ Warrior & Strong over at Hip Hop West... he dropped that rumor bomb on his youtube account as well as over at HHNLive.com forum board... he was also promoting his upcoming mixtape that'll be hosted by Crooked I called "Western Hospitality 2"... so who knows... maybe he is right??

Oh aight... I know the dude your talking about... he's the one rocking the "New West Affiliates" image on his MySpace...
