      Royce deserve a shot. I think he has morals and principles he stands on but when what you stand on tears you between two people, or two sides, you tend to make wrong decisions at some point. Don't think royce a bad dude at all. I just don't can't agree with Joe. My opinion of him has changed over the years. Music or not.

    This is why crook has been my favorite rapper for YEARS!!! Humble, intelligent, not looking for clout. Just facts. He can accept that he ain’t always right. He values other opinions. He loves his fans. And above all he wants to share that music and knowledge with the fans. What more could we ask for as fans.

    Long time fan of Crooked I, he's always been a genuine, honest and vibrant ambassador for hip-hop culture. It's very unlike him to ever go on video and lie ... The evidence uncovered in this video just substantiates a lengthy history of troubles associated with Joe Budden's character.

The real, actual, absolute, irrefutable, objectively true truth! You even said the right word there, it's his and Joell's 'perspective', their side of the story, which is what the album is. Outside of the four of them, there isn't anyone that knows what the actual truth is because it's an internal issue, it just so happens that from what we can piece together from what we know of them (mostly Joe), the truth most likely lines up with Crook and Joell. Joe is the problem because Joe is always the problem, he's a self-destructive, self-sabotaging asshole who doesn't give two shits about anybody that isn't Joe Budden.

    This was damn good. No semantics. No talking in circles. No babbling. Crook stated his truth and perspective clear and concise, now obviously there are more than one side or perspectives to a story, in this case there are 4, but you'd be naive or not objective at all to just willingly follow Joe's narrative because we ALL know just how...challenging doing anything with Joe can be. I honestly don't know why Royce is so gung ho for Joe, but it's clear that there's a line in the sand and Royce is way cooler with Joe and Joell is way cooler with Crook.

      Great comment only thing I might disagree with (a little) is Royce being way cooler with Joe. I think Joe is in zone by himself and Royce is the only one that really messes with him, whereas the other 3 have a relationship of sorts. That leaves Royce being the middleman, and honestly on the lives he just seems chilled and cool with whatever happpens..he just doesnt want to do Slaughterhouse as a 3 man crew.

      I think Joel should make it his own group of lyrical killers, you could tell the man still wants to create and do his thing I think he should create a group birthing a new generation of emcees into this game. I don't wanna see Joel go under the rug I want him to push in career to new height and new beginnings. When it comes to crooked I'll say this he has the best flow as a lyrical technician perspective. His flow is so technical and every syllable is attached to his flow. He's one of my favorite rappers; he's in my top 10 of all time

      Lool I was/is a big fan of Joe the rapper and when I saw he was uploading TH-cam videos back in the day I naturally started to watch and follow his uploads. Bit by bit, due to his treatment of Tahiry (who has her own issues) I realised he was a complete a hole. It got further cemented when he started doing Everyday Struggle and tried to backhandly son DJ Akademiks every episode, however because most people see Ak as a lame, people didnt have a problem with it or just thought Joe was a real one (most had probably not seem him before ES as well). After ES was done I really couldnt be bothered to follow him anymore, mainly because Podcasts take up too much time and I knew he was a toxic person so I didnt watch JBP like that. It just humours me that people 10 -15 years after my realisation are still struggling to see or come to terms with how destructive the man is. Imagine tuning in to your favourite musician and slowly coming to realise how fucked up they are as a person. It's hard to come to terms with and i think a lot of people are going through the same delusion I had to go through.

I done always had a love/hate feeling about Joe over the years. He's one of my favorite lyricists, but I can see how he'd be a hard person to be around. He's got a big headed arrogant way about him I can see that would rub people the wrong way.
