Hell Yeah Nigga!! ;D
-
face off with snoop?
snoop said he was droppin in march didnt he?
-
cant wait 8)
-
They're supposed to shoot the video for NWA this month by the way. This information is coming from Sauce Tha Boss on myspace.
-
Maby he is trying to go up against snoop, thats is actually a prety iteresting way to do it..
-
Its stupid to try and go against snoop hes on no level to try and go against him...talking on album sales here...
-
can wait for that shit to come out.
-
"This year I'm dropping B.O.S.S., I promise" ---> Whatever happened to that?
I do realize that if it would have been up to Crooked, the album would be out already, but in a way...I think it IS up to Crooked. Like I've said before: he should've just gone the indie-route and dropped the album through that channel instead of continuously trying to get the best possible deal ever.
I hope March sticks, 'cause a few months ago it was all about "Boss is coming in October!". I'll see...
-
sounds like a great idea
hopefully they actually go through with all this
-
OH MY GOD!!!! OH MY FUCKIN' GOD!! I CANT WAIT TO BE VERY DISAPPOINTED IN MARCH WHEN THE ALBUM DOESN'T COME OUT.
seriously though, lets hope it sticks and that Crooked is able to make a decent record.
-
If this seriously dont drop by end of March, it aint comin out!!!

exactly .. I'm tired of reading and hearing the same excuses not only for Crook but for others rappers aswell .. sign to a major , good , but if in the 12-18 months which follow the signature contract you haven't release an album , just manage to leave the label and go indie... Crooked I, Saigon , Papoose and them still think they're gonna be the next big thing , pipe dream ...
-
I believe there's a HHW remix album coming early 08, not B.O.S.S.
-
man im almost 100% sure that it wont come out in March.
Thats like 3 months away and aint really any news on this album recently. So im thinking if it doesnt come out late 2008 then its never coming out.

FINALLY a video for that...Crooked was talkin about shootin the video 4 months back.
-
b.o.s.s aint never come out :(
-
Man, I was just listening to N.W.A. in my car, that track is a pure banger. The song could easilly be the "We Fly High" or "I Get Money" of 08. But knowing Crooked, he'll stilll be living in his fantasy world, where he wants to go platinum in the first week.
-
Don't forget that this is all speculation by the blog writer... Don't hold Crook accountable for March LOL...
-
I hope it still drops March! Word 2 Crooked!

What makes you think that?

Don't lie to yourself, B.O.S.S ain't ever coming out ;)

naw not really. everybody was singing "i get money, money i got" and "we fly high so high" when they came out
But aint nobody gonna be singing "gangsters dont dance we 2 step" people gonna be lookin at u like :-\
THe beat is real dope and and i think the verses are dope too. But how can you make a mainstream song and then throw in as the chorus "gangsters dont dance we 2 step"
THat line right there is gonna hold crooked back cus none of that gangster music is played no more.
He could have came out wit something better as the chorus.
-
I think it's a dope chours, maybe not as catchy as the other 2 mentioned but still good enough.
@Mauzip: I played it to my friends, who don't really listen to rap, just the biggest hits and they all loved it. That never happens with an unkwon rapper. They mainly love the beat, since it got that Timbaland sound.
-
^^that's not what i meant. what makes you say you think crooked i's aim is to go platinum first week?
-
Well, I was overreacting for dramatic purpose but that is based on him searching for some great distributiion for the past 3 years, when he can easilly release an album on Koch.

I don't know about that. My logical guess is that if he could've released an album he already would've.

exactly. if he cant get Treacherous records to drop the album, then he should drop it indie. like koch or somethin. fuck wasting your time every year trying to find a major distribution deal.

I see where you're coming from Smegma. We as fans have indeed little or no clue at all as to what goes on behind the scenes when it comes to record deals. But...we do know that Crooked has had several label offers already. Crooked said it himself in various interviews: "I've got a bunch of label offers laying on the table right now. We're just trying to sort it all out."
Sure enough, most of them were probably shitty deals, but at least he would've had an album out by now and he could've kept pushing his 'movement' based on his indie-sales.
No hate on Crooked btw. Just calling it like I see it, is all.

no more expected dates.........until i see an album on the shelves, I won't hold my breath
