it was on the "new at 2" on power 106....  but only on it for 1 day and i never heard it again...

They've had Omar Cruz ft Frankie J - to the top....they've had this track on the new at 2 for like a 3 weeks straight...
Also theyve had that Tq track "sexy on the new at two for like 2 weeks now...

That crooked i track was only on"the new at 2 show" one day and it dissapeared...

I guess people just werent feeling it...

The single is getting radio airplay on Kiss FM (major radio station in London). They play it at least 3 or 4 times a day. It's getting played on other radio stations as well. I thought that appearing in the new at 2 was just meaning the single was entering their playlist, isn't it? You gotta keep on requesting it on Power106! Send them an email or text them from time to time!

Crooked I will be featured in an upcoming issue of Vibe magazine as well... The buzz ain't dead!

You can request it on KRCK FM (Palm Springs radio station): http://www.mediabase.com/mmrweb/7/stationplaylistrequest.asp?c_let=KRCK-FM

Just tick the case in front of  Crooked I's single and click on submit! It only takes a few seconds, you can also bookmark this page and request it everytime you can...

Not for "Dream Big", but be prepared for big ass remix of "Cali Boyz"... ;)

You mean like a Cali Boyz remix of "Dream Big", Cali Boyz meaning other rappers from the westcoast? If so, maybe I got it wrong and you're right... Not knowing that builds up even more the anticipation for it... ;)

Which is insanity, because as far as I'm concerned, this is Crook's biggest track to date. The fans need to keep pushing this song so we can get B.O.S.S. on the shelves.

I hear you, I think too many people wanted that uptempo/club vibe Akon track, but Crook did something different and gave us something fresh.

Why would fans need to push a single? That's the label's job. ::)

I hear what your saying, but why would a radio station play the song if no one asks to hear it though?

if noone asks for it, that should tell you enough about the hype the single has ;)

I'm saying though, people act like their favorite artist should automatically appear on Top 40 lists over night just because their "single" leaked on the net. Then when it flops, they ask themselves why did it happen? It's because they just sat on their asses staring at their computer screens.

Good question... I think that the fans were more confident that it was all going to "fall into place" before. "Boom Boom Clap" really would have been the launching point though.

dream big needs a bassline, until they rerelease that with the bassline and get it mixed right i aing requestin shiiiit. thats sad though cause im a fan of crooked, he should move forward and put out an other single, i'm sure he got a lot of tracks considering how he did so many weeklys

Cali boyz is doooope, but it's really old, I think he was being sarcastic, and yea it'd be dope to hear Tha S.C.Cs' 'Cali-Boyz' group on a Crooked I 'Cali-Boyz' Remix. lol

It was supposed to be the first single off Boss Music. But then that situation with Death Row happened and they tried to act like it was going to be released on the LADR ost I think...

I think it'd be cool to keep cd singles on store shelves but then mp3's came to fruition and i-tunes etc;. That cds reminds me of when pac had all those cd singles on store shelves for all eyez on me.
