Hopefully it happens.  It could be a win-win for everybody.

I think we have a better chance of the Clippers winning the NBA Finals this year.  :-\

Hypothetically speaking, if Crooked were to somehow get his Death Row material back by the spring/summer months this year, I'd just package "Untouchable" & "Say Hi.." in a double-disc format and let it go for free along with the BOSS album. That way people will have 3 albums worth of solo music to hold them over while he focuses on the SlaughterHouse project. He's already said that he won't be releasing a solo retail album until after a SlaughterHouse album is released, so if that's the case, then give your fans those 3 albums to tide them over in the meantime. At the very least give them BOSS, if not your Death Row albums.

Personally, I'd rather hear his Death Row albums first, and then BOSS for the sake of chronology. I'm interested to hear his evolution from "Untouchable" to "BOSS".

Meant to add to my above statement concerning the double-disc format that for those who were interested in purchasing hard copies, he should sell them through CD Baby. Otherwise just let it go as a free digital download.

He should just release them digitally like he did Block Obama 2, he would get some money & fans get what they want.

I wouldn't argue with that either.

But Crooked I would fuck it up for us; he'd release it song-by-song.

 I was just checking out Wideawake entertainment's website.  While there's no mention of the Crooked I music, specifically, there is a bit of news regarding the Death Row Catalog in general.  According to what I read, there is supposed to be a news conference sometime between today and Saturday, where they will announce their plans for Death Row Records, including a website where you can download never-before-heard songs.

Thanks Johnny for the find. The Death Row ad looks promising but the first pdf talks about a new 2Pac album coming.. I don't see how they can release anything without Tupac's mother stepping in.

Evergreen and Amaru have to clear it for them to release it. Also, if they got definitive plans for it, obviously they have.

Yeah, I'd assume that it's all worked out. They seem to be about their business.

At least this further proves that Crooked was in talks with them this week. I hope they reached an agreement. At least it looks like Crooked will get paid for these albums since they're pushing the Death Row catalogues through KOCH, so that's a plus.

Ahhh, thats what i figured. Im a huge Crooked I fan but i dont really keep up on things like that. A lot of people i see here look like they are SUPER hip hop fans, eat breathe an sleep hip hop. I used to be like that, but as of lately...

I feel you... to be honest there's only a few artists that I follow anymore and Crook is one of them.
