Did the full version of this BANGIN' song ever leak? I remember somethin' about Lunatic sayin' he gonna ask about it from Knoc, can't remember if it went down though?
Even though there's only a snippet out, "Rock The Party" is single material for real. In case you ain't heard the snippet that leaked some years ago, here you go

Nah, a full version never leaked. I'll ask Knoc again.

Aiight homie, you do that. The full version deserves to be leaked/released, shit bangs like a muthafucka :D
-
This is the first time I'm hearing this song, and it's not really doing anything for me.
-
yeah i had this song for a couple a years now, I want the full version 8)

should ask him to leak it if they don't plan on releasing it on an album
-
Just spoke with Knoc for a good bit, we may be able to make this happen. Knoc is pretty sure he still has this full version, he is going to check his vaults.

He said Treacherous are the ones who have to put that out. I know they are working on it. As I said, there was some paperwork issues between Treacherous and the label distributor that doesn't involve Knoc.
Knoc continues to work hard and hit the studio every day pretty much to record new shit. He's recorded over 400 tracks in these last 4-5 (after "The Way I Am") and y'all have unfortunately only heard a handful of them.

in one interview he said he have worked with dre in recent years, and have some tracks didnt he?

^Yes. Knoc still has a good relationship with Dre, DOC, Warren G, etc. There is no reason Dre won't be on the BOK

Dre (or Aftermath) is probably too expensive for Treacherous.

LMAO @ Knoc, that nigga lunatic been saying "comming soon" on that EP, not even a fuckin LP, for years now

what does good relationship means"didnt see them for 5 years but there never was bad blood"
"i see them ever now and then and we talk and make music"
do you know that or can u ask him that???

Mauzip: Dre has never charged Knoc for a beat or verse
Active: It's a street album not an EP..get cha facts straight
Gio: Warren G & Knoc-turn'al reconnected recently. Warren G had lost a contact on Knoc after he moved to Texas years ago. I recently gave Warren G Knoc's phone number and they spoke. Knoc was actually supposed to appear on "The G-Files" (the song is done) but Warren couldn't get it on in time :-X
As for Dre & DOC, Knoc was recently with both of them at Dre's house. Knoc stopped by Dre's house and they just kicked it. No music, but they chatted and spent a good chunk of the afternoon/night together. Knoc is all aware of the upcoming DOC voice surgery stuff ;)

fuck Treacherous man, it seems like it's a shitty label.
why is Knoc still on there anyway, don't tell me he's trapped?
-
I have no ill will towards Treacherous. There a great label with probably the best talent roster on the entire west coast and I have a good relationship with all of there artists and especially employee Mickey.
But for those who say "Fuck knoc he aint dropped this yet?" I speak to Knoc on a personal level and he wants nothing more than to release this & The Book of Knoc. If it was up to him, both would be in stores today if he could do that. It's not on him to release it, it's on the label, just like that is the case with any signed music artist in this industry.
Dre-Day: He has a 1 album deal with Treacherous.
-
i don't profess to know the inner workings of things, but it seems like one album on that particular label can take a while. ask crooked i :-\

No offense but that is what you are supposed to say lol
I personally can't stand them. You have done more for that label in the last year or two then they have since they started (dubcnn has done their part as well). There is no promo, no nothing from them other than mixtapes that the artists drop. If they have to be that pro active to get their music out then might as well do it indie. They fucking up IMO, period.

each month that passes without his shit coming out just makes it more and more unlikely that it ever will

I appreciate your honest opinion. All I am stating is that Knoc-turn'al should not be blamed for this not being released yet. I am not saying who should be blamed (I really dunno what the issue is) but it shouldn't be Knoc.
-

lol, Mickey defends mixtape DJ's. Fuck him.
I don't see how anyone can find Treacherous a great label. They have some of the best artists signed, but can't release a damn mixtape; let alone an album. How many years has Crooked I been fucking with these fools? Even with the HHW hype they couldn't release shit, except for a shitty iTunes EP.

I will tell ya who you need to blame, Treacherous. Like I said if they are putting all the responsibility on the artist to succeed then that are they good for? They should be cutting you a check for all the free promo you have been doing for Knoc, real talk. When a journalist for a hip hop website is doing more promo for your artists then the label itself, there is a problem.

Knoc-turn'al will get some music out there

whether it happens, it happens. knoc should drop some traks on the daily on the net 8)

I just wanna get the tape so I can bang that new Knoc, fucking label issues and release dates seem to plague every artist these days...
Ayo Luna, so if Knoc got a 1 album deal on treacherous, is the mixtape counted as that album? since its a street album with all original material and is being distributed through Treachorous?

No, "The Book of Knoc" must be that album on the 1 album deal.

Another career ruined by Treacherous Records. Dude's stuck on that label till his album is released and they can't even put out a mixtape.

ok, LMAO, a street album is getting the detox treatment by knoc, wow

^That don't make sense because both the street album and album are done (Knoc) whereas Detox isn't.

ask tearcherous... those lames seem to be all about marketing, yet haven't proved ANYTHING... TO U TREACHEROUS PEOPLE: U HAVE TO RISK SOMETHING TO WIN SOMETHING. real talk
-
eh, i gave up waiting on Knoc's album to come out. I've moved on. It's always the same with a lot of labels and artists. Once the album has a date and it gets pushed back more than 2 times, I give up on it and don't bother waiting for it anymore. Thats pretty much how you lose fans when labels & artists keep doing this shit. people won't care and won't wanna wait anymore.

so treacherous is supposedly sitting on two complete albums....................

honestly i would like to hear another knocturnal album but i really doubt that will ever happen
-
I remember reading somewhere that he has songs that he did with Eminem and was suppose to come out on Ems album but for some reason didnt (All of this could be wrong its just something i somewhat remember) he should release those tracks. It would be good promotion for both of them considering they both have albums coming out plus i would love to hear them.

a lot of the shit you hear about Knoc is bull shit, like him having any involvement with Dre in a music sense. He may still have some shit from the 2001 days but that's it. Dre aint wasting a time with a nigga who can't even drop a street album

lol your such an idiot it's unbelievable. So your telling me in their five year run the reason Treacherous hasn't released any albums is because there not done? Knoc-turn'al has not put together (two) albums/street albums with the 400 songs he's made in 4 years? Crooked I never finished BOSS? Jayo Felony never finished anything? How about Big Syke? Or Jayo Felony?
Dre still fucks with Knoc as friends 100%. You may just see that soon actually. Knoc was with Dre & DOC the other night, and I know he isn't lying because (Knoc doesn't even really use the computer) and he knows all about (and was talking about) The DOC's current voice situation.
We are working on finding this track.
Knoc did have stuff recorded with Eminem but it's old and I'm not sure if Knoc even still has the tracks.
-

Ask him if he would leak those tracks too. I'd like to hear "East/West Shyt" in CDQ. Knoc-Turn'Al should release a "mixtape" through DubCNN, like Roscoe did.

SMH@ this idiot

^It's not Treacherous' fault that the music industry is the way that it is right now. It's tough with distribution and releasing CD's. That is not Knoc's fault and is out of the hands of Treacherous as well, making neither of them at blame.
Uhh I don't think i'd be an idiot teenager who worked his way into the music business without any post secondary education ;)

A major label distributor which Treacherous doesn't have in place at this moment..due to the way the music industry is right now..they don't want to release it independent like that and I don't blame them one bit..it could be a decent selling project with Knoc's reputation and the guest appearances/production/potential singles..

that right there is huge mistake. If a Kurupt/Quik album is flopping, if Ice Cube's last album even sold disappointingly, then why the hell do they think major label would take a chance with Knoc?
He was somewhat known back when 2001 dropped, had a little buzz with that Dre/Missy joint but fucked that up and that EP shit and dropped the ball on Way I Am. All that was YEARS ago. No one checking for Knoc except real hardcore westcoast fans.
If all this delay is over waiting on a major then I don't expect his album to ever drop
-
^Kurupt/Quik wasn't marketed properly or in a mainstream way anyway. Cube went Gold.
Elektra fucked up the EP and the album; so did L.A. Confidential. Slip Capone will be the first to tell u that. "The Way I Am" sold out in Cali on the first day..the same time Elektra fired their rap division and stores couldn't even order more copies..because there was nobody left to order from..
Knoc has a good song writing ability which can land him a hit record; go listen to that Akon joint I premiered. Nothin special to u west coast heads, but listen to that lyrics/song writing..mainstream genius
He will get a project out there
-
^If Knoc was able to put out a new album, Dre would sign the papers for Knoc to use a track or 2 no problem
No doubt but I'm talking bout the old 2001 left overs etc, I'm sure Dre wouldn't mind Knoc using new shit, but dunno bout stuff that old?

Whatever the song is, era doesnt matter, Dre would sign off on it for a Knoc album.

Damn that's ill then.
And did Raw Footage go gold? That's dope if it did, I know Laugh Now Cry Later did as well..
So are they trying to get major distro for the mixtape or just for Book Of Knoc? I think doing the first one independent on E1 would be a good way to get some buzz and help secure a major for the Book Of Knoc
-
If Raw Footage didnt go gold, it did close which is good enough numbers these days..
Just for Book of Knoc, but lookin for distro. for the tape as well..

wasn't marketed properly? was getting ads in all the major hip hop publications, was advertised in the Best Buy ads, had leaked tracks out for a minute before it came out.
and you bringing up mainstream with Knoc? You think the mainstream really looking for some 30+ year old underground rapper from the west?

Everything leading up to the album was fine (that's why it sold out in Cali 1st day)..it was the shipping during/AFTER the release that fucked it up..
first off knoc aint underground..and 2nd off the mainstream dont give a fuck who old u are as long as u can put out a hit record..and due to knoc's fantastic song writing, he can make hits still.

Elektra fucked up the EP and the album; so did L.A. Confidential. Slip Capone will be the first to tell u that. "The Way I Am" sold out in Cali on the first day..the same time Elektra fired their rap division and stores couldn't even order more copies..because there was nobody left to order from..
Knoc has a good song writing ability which can land him a hit record; go listen to that Akon joint I premiered. Nothin special to u west coast heads, but listen to that lyrics/song writing..mainstream genius
He will get a project out there
wasn't marketed properly? was getting ads in all the major hip hop publications, was advertised in the Best Buy ads, had leaked tracks out for a minute before it came out.
and you bringing up mainstream with Knoc? You think the mainstream really looking for some 30+ year old underground rapper from the west?
Everything leading up to the album was fine (that's why it sold out in Cali 1st day)..it was the shipping during/AFTER the release that fucked it up..
first off knoc aint underground..and 2nd off the mainstream dont give a fuck who old u are as long as u can put out a hit record..and due to knoc's fantastic song writing, he can make hits still.
harsh reality: today's mainstream hip hop audience DOES IN FACT give a fuck if the rapper is 30+
and you don't think Knoc is underground, I promise only hardcore raps have ever heard of, maybe if you play them the Dre/Missy track they will recognize it but they sure as hell wouldn't remember knoc being on it
I'm not trying to hate, but you need to tell Knoc that if he's waiting for major to pick him up to drop an album, Detox 1, 2, and 3 will all be out by then

^His multiple "2001" appearances and ghost writing for Dre makes the average hip hop fan know him
Knoc ain't waiting for that, that's just the label plan. As I said if it was up to Knoc, the album be out tomorrow.
-
Keep us posted of any updates Luna, patiently waiting!
-
^Always will. Speak to Knoc every day normally. Business aside, that is my friend. He is the realest artist I have dealt with. The rest is MOSTLY on business only shit (minus a handful of others as well) but Knoc and I actually developed a friendship. I drunk called that motha fucka last night like what up? Don't wanna see my phone bill! he just chillin there tellin me he wish we recorded that shit cuz it was funny as hell
Man, y'all ain't even know the stories Knoc done told me..real talk, he one of the funniest mutha fuckas, period.
-
Knoc did have stuff recorded with Eminem but it's old and I'm not sure if Knoc even still has the tracks.
Could u ask him if he still has some tracks? I bet a lot of people would love to hear them (including me). Oh and has he ever recored anything with Ice Cube (Besides the Westside Connection track)?

Probably too much red tape around leaking those. He would probably need to go through paperwork and stuff. Umm, I am pretty sure he recorded with Ice Cube for "Book of Knoc."
Untitled Ft. Ice Cube
Pentagon Ft. Nate Dogg
Untitled Ft. Too $hort (similar to "Cash Sniffin Noses")
Skip a Beat Ft. Noah Jones
When I Wanna Ft. K. Young
Ya Boy Is Back (Prod. By Scott Storch)
..just a few Book of Knoc tracks..

Cant wait to hear the album. He should work with The Game for The R.E.D. Album.

I've got good hopes that Knoc's album will drop one way or the other. Luna, don't let one or two haters get to you ;)

Don't worry about a hater. Knoc will drop one way or another.

^It's not Treacherous' fault that the music industry is the way that it is right now. It's tough with distribution and releasing CD's. That is not Knoc's fault and is out of the hands of Treacherous as well, making neither of them at blame.
that's not an excuse for delaying the album.
besides, waiting won't improve the sales.....
-
I'm also a big fan of Knoc but let's face it, his mainstream days are over (if he ever really had ones). He should just sign with E1 and release independent albums, there's no way he's ever gonna be big in the mainstream.
-
Treacherous has good studio and good talent but they have no intensions to promote their artists or put any cd's out. It's basically a record studio label, artists should just take their own tracks with them and get some E1 deal like people said.
Or are these tracks locked up so far up their ass that they are just in the vault collecting dust?
If I were a rapper, I would try to hook-up with someone like Tech N9ne and really try to figure out releasing things. I don't know nothing about the industry so just a thought, at least he knows how to do it. You would think at least Crook could easily sell with his groupie ass fanbase if not these newcomers like One-2.

people just dont understand. the fans want the music out asap! but in reality things just dont happen so smooth and quickly. knoc is not to blame, and why is lunatic getting all the bashing? all he is doing is keeping us informed and setting the facts straight.
i would love to have another knoc album or even a tape/street album - anything!!
but we have to accept they are doing the best that they can and working in the same direction in order to get something released.
these are probably the same people who have turned on dre for taking his time with detox.

Reading the last two pages, only two things come to mind:
'head stuck up ass' & 'shake my head'

Knoc ain't waiting for that, that's just the label plan. As I said if it was up to Knoc, the album be out tomorrow.
that's wishful thinking, seeing he only spit a verse on 2 tracks that album, and neither were singles, and the fact the album came out a DECADE ago

still appeared on 4 tracks. Plus you toss in "Bad Intentions", "Lights Out", writing for Dre on Xzibit & DJ Quik songs, writing for Warren G, "The Knoc", "The Way I Am", "Muzik" being the first (hip hop?) sample Beatles have cleared...and you have yourself what should be a known artist by hip hop heads.

I got plenty of interviews coming. I can interview Knoc every day that but that ain't interesting for y'all right now. We do have a completed feature together going through song by song on "Knoc's Ville" but I figured I'd drop that when the paperwork/distribution gets figured out and we have a release date...I can't do the visit home interview as I said because I live in Canada.
Knoc doesn't use the computer really. Just spends time with his family and records.

No, that's his album "Book of Knoc." They are also working on getting that out as well.
