atm definately Crooked i. But Kurupt bak in 92-97 was matchin any East coast rapper out. Sayin that Lady of Rage killed him on The Chronic in my opinion.

I want to say Kurupt, but he has gotten lazy...Not a fan of Crook,but gotta admit it, He-Crook-is quite easily the best outta the two,until such a time Kurupt decides to be more inventive with his rhyming.. :-\, Crook will always be ahead of .

That said, Kurupt has dropped albums that are littered with his lyrical prowess..
It boils down to choice in the end. I'd still place Young Gotti above Crook though,due to his ability to switch his flows more effortlessly than Crook IMO! ;)

Who is better rapper?
Let's see when albums come out, I am now feeling Crooked I more, not dropping an album would change it

Who can better carry a song?
I would say Crooked I, he stands out the most

Who is better lyricist?
Crooked I, Kurupt earlier (I hope that next album is gonna change that)

Who has better voice?
What is this? Maybe between Lil Wayne or Nas you could compare voices but they both have no "fucked up throat sound". Draw?

Who has better flow?
I would say that Kurupt, Crooked seems to have always the same flow, let's see when his album comes...Kurupt has flexibility

overall, i'd say kurupt, although in the last 3-4 years, crooked I has been better...but kurupt murdered everyone in the 90's, but he's slipped alot.  I think it's from all the weed he's smoked over the last 15 years.  Crooked has been better lately.

a battle between the Kurupt of '92-'97 vs. Crooked I, that would've been classic

Yeah, no kidding....about the closest we got to that was when Crooked I were on those 2 tracks from Streets Iz A Mutha.  That was kurupt's last great album and Crooked I was just coming into his own at that time.

Crooked I easily.
Like everyone said, Kurupt fell off very strong after 1999 or so, with very few good verses here and there... During 92-99 he was a beast. Since then he's just lazy, and overated.

they also were on Gangsta Rap and Homie together

I think Kurupt got many different flows, deliveries and is more versatile than Crooked who is more of a battle rapper like Kurupt when he first came out

I think Crooked would take anyone out in a battle though

lol, not to mention his drinking problem.

but cmon, you can't blame weed on it. there is too many rappers that have smoked weed longer than that and are still dope.

he just got lazy and probably feels like he doesn't need to impress anyone anymore. but I do see the vintage Kurupt on a lot of recent tracks.

a lot of rappers age well and some don't. he probably just doesn't feel as energized as he was during the DR days.
