It's been almost four months since we premiered the new single from Crooked I featuring Akon on our Westcoast Grind Radio Show. Since then the single, produced by Konvict Muzik producer Detail and entitled Dream Big, has been doing the rounds on local, national and international radio.

Today sees the long awaited official single release to Digital outlets including iTunes. The digital download and ringtone are available now at all digital retailers, including iTunes, Rhapsody, Amazon, Napster, Emusic and all Mobile Carriers.

The Long Beach, CA rapper Crooked I has been on the scene now for well over a decade and has gathered an incredible fan base for an artist yet to release a solo album. This single is the lead track from his long awaited debut "B.O.S.S. (Beginning of Something Serious)" and is set to capitalise on the success of his acclaimed Hip Hop Weekly series that dropped every week on Dubcnn for a year.

Even though you can download Dream Big courtesy of Dubcnn we urge you to drop a dollar on the single and showcase your support for an artist many of you have followed for years.

Get The Ringtone: Text Crooked1 to 38021

Buy The Single: iTunes | Amazon | Rhapsody

Support Crooked I today and check him out on the homepage of your iTunes with this single!

that's one of the biggest jokes I've read in the last weeks.
LOL @ releasing a single "officially" 4 months after the free internet release and then hoping to get money by that or to create any additive buzz. I mean, when u release a so called lead single you have to drop the album kinda close to that date. It's like the usual situation with Crooked I, he needs time and time and time. u can't call a single a lead single, when it's 4 months old and u still say "my album coming soon" with no fixed release date, now that's a joke. I mean Crooked I has nearly no chance to sell albums to people outside his solid fanbase. and with such a move he won't even tease those fans, because everybody already has this song.

I know your a fan of his, but surely you can understand alot of people have got fed up with waiting.

Crooked I is a great great rapper, but he will never be a great artist until he delivers an album.

Man, it's the same people who diss Crooked I for never releasing anything that refuse to spend a dollar to show support. It's disgusting. If you asked 100 fans last month if they'd be satisfied with a digital deal for "Dream Big" and other projects they'd all say that's a great idea. Now, when the time comes everyone got something negative to say. If ya'll ain't a fan of Crooked I that's fine, but to constantly pray on another man's downfall is obsessive and border line suspect if you ask me.

I don't know about that.  If he couldn't capitalize on dropping those Hip Hop Weekly's, this little mixtape will hardly break the surface.

This is baby step progress, real progress would be to get a route for his album release. But of course Crooked is waiting for the big 2million dollar contract until he is 40 and then releases it when even Detox was out 5 years ago.

Yeah thanks. This wasn't supposed to be hating, that was just my honest point. But as usual, I get my karma dropped for saying my opinion.
