let's be brutally honest here: nobody on Death Row at that time (unless it was posthumous 2Pac) was doing real numbers or seeing any plaques I loved just about everything Crook was doing in that era but nothing he put out was going to be a Gold or Platinum selling hit

Crooked had a joint with juvenile and sisqo at their height.. If pushed right, it woulda gone gold.

Also Juvenile and Sisqo peaked in like 99 and So Damn Hood was 2002.Not sure but I know there was a slew of random acts doin numbers in that era .. Sisqo dropped a platinum album in 2001 and Juvenile had his first number 1 hit in 2003 wit slow motion, so they was still buzzin back then.. Enough for suge to do somethin wit it at least

Enough for suge to do somethin wit it at least Forgot about Slow Motion. Either way, "So Damn Hood" was a cool song but was not really a hit.
