definitely top 2 or 3 as far as making good records, not just lyricism.

It's only a mixtape track, because that's all he does.  He's not the best in the west, because he doesn't even exist.

yeah.. i mean  hes dope and all, but nowhere near the best... hes not even a factor in the industry yet.

personally, i think hes a good lyricisit and all, but i dont like at him at all.

Top 4 Rappers right now in no particular order

Crooked I, Yukmouth, Sly Boogy, Tech N9ne (yes i know he is not from west)
Title: Re: Crooked I is without doubt the Best in the West!!! Who agrees
Post by: D1G1T4L on April 14, 2005, 11:17:26 PM
ras has some tight shit but personally i like crooked i's flow much better

to personally it's not all bout lyrics, its about the flow as well, crooked i flow can be so fucking crazy, i wont mention tech n9ne cause he is way ahead of his time

and sly boogy's lisp or whatever he has is sick as hell

Honestly without a doubt, crooked i is the best artist... we could argue for days who is better lyrically, but crooked's sound is definetly more appealing to a brouder audience because he understands it's not just lyrics, but a good hook, a good beat and a combination of other elements that make a song great...he's just the greatest RAPPER not fuckig up the industry...PERIOD!

True. He knows how to variegate his style...he knows how to come lyrical/hardcore on a track, but also do "pop-stuff" (you know what I mean right) for the mainstream-audience...and that's what you need if you wanna be on a major & blow up.

^^^ true that although i consider crook the best rapper alive right now maybe i should slow down and wait for him to drop a great solo record. the guy is unbelievable though

crook has a sick flow and his songs have always sounded very professionally done.....cant wait to get and album from him his new track is sick

i feel you, thats a tough choice. but crooked i hasnt really doesnt any songs that just had me like WOW. ras kass will always be the best to me because of "Nature of the Threat" alone

but Crooked I got more energy in his flow

Lyrically Crooked I is the best. But his latest track is very average lyrically (thopugh the beat is hot). He cant be the king of the west without an album. Right now, I dont think there is a king of the west.

he would've brought deathrow back if the label didn't procrastinate so fuckin much on his album.

Default goes to Snoop, dogg. 

If you took all Snoop's dope songs from the tons of albums he's done, and added them up, plus add up his history, his charisma, his movies, his continued presense in the game, etc. he outshines everybody and is king of the west.

Ice Cube would be if he recorded more, but he's on inactive reserve or something.

Crooked I is definitely one of the best lyricists & he's sick on the mic too, dude has a unique delivery. But Ill wait before I judge, cause there is a BIG difference between spittin mixtape tracks and making real songs for a full length album. And I've yet to hear a Crooked I solo album.

I was actually going to say that too. Snoop is the face of the west coast. When people think of west coast rap, they usually think of Snoop. Dude's been in the game a long a$$ time and has had many classic cuts (not on his last few albums though).

At this point and time ain't no one fuckin' with Crooked I from the Westcoast. Game may have blown up, but Crooked I's galaxies above that niqqa lyrically. Not only can Crook ride any kinda beat, he's been provin' that he can make "album-type" tracks lately with "My Life", "I've Suffered Too Long", "Leave Us Alone", and "Boom Boom Clap". And these aren't even on his album!
