@@jumbocanuck The guy is a half decent rapper that came in a bit too late to be a certified legend. Guy probably stayed at Tha Row for too long. At least him and Royce will always have jobs as Eminem's on-line bodyguards. 🤣
@@christopherayettey4390 Crook used the same sample as Nas on a track called I gave you power ( produced by DJ Premier). One of the dopest/most creative story-telling joints ever made.
Now that!! Is what u call a Perfect Rapper 👊 Storytelling, Cadence, Flows, Multi syllable rhymes, Punches, Doubles, similes, metaphor Keep it up KYNG 🤙
"Head stitched up in the casket 'cause half of his roof missing" is one of those lines that just makes you grab your nuts and go "damnnnnn" Crooked I is underrated af 🔥🔥🔥
Got chills/goosebumps for about 30 seconds straight once it got to “he shot my brother” great song and message and you did justice to I gave you power! Great stuff
The Lyricism in this is incredible, love how crooks just in the background dealing and smoking at the funeral, like that’s not even him, Cus obvs it’s the voice of the bandanna, top tier mc! GOAT

How is this not all over the place? Crook always brings it and the message is on point. Crook as always been one of my favorites in the game and it’s a damn shame this man keeps putting out nothing but 🔥 and is slept on so damn hard. Ridiculous.
This is the power move of the Century. They both flow with elegance and true Hip Hop conviction..I'm so GLAD they decided to bless us with their amazing storytelling ability and give the community what we've all been waiting for. They both are corrected, you can't leave greatness on the cutting room floor. I truly hope these 2 con't to bless Hip Hop with this greatness for a long while and this teaches all creatives that you always figure out a way bcuz this masterpiece demonstrates that it's bigger than the HOUSE. It's about the FAMILY!! Sometimes divorce is needed. I'm just glad these two got to raise the children/music. Thanks CROOK and JOEL!!! Stay Up!!
No matter how many times I watch the video or listen to this song, the shivers run down my body every time.. especially when it gets to the point where the dad gets shot at bday. This is just masterful
I been banging this song since you dropped it. This is one of my favorite songs you did , the story telling is amazing. Today I just caught a bar that I never caught before. Keep doing you , respect
Damn. I feel like I already watched the video way back when only the audio was out. The imagery in the story telling is just first class. Plus the message 🥶
I found you in Playground and after checking out some of your work I must say you are one of the most underrated artist of all time 🔥🔥 Crazy love from India ❤️
Reminds me of dat old NAS joint about the bullet. This is REAL LYRICISM.. take lessons young bucks.. words are powerful, and they either promote Life or Death… choose yours wisely!
My owner always said that this bangin would get him killed, The way they did the crip was so cold blooded i get the chills. Respect the Legend mannnnn!!!! This guy can do it all Best use of personification that ive ever heard on a track.
It's a shame how legends get slept on like this. Respect king from 🇮🇳
Facts bruh! This track is fire
what legend?, this nigga had a couple crappy singles and grave yarded his career with shady. R I P
@@nateplissken8684 he's not signed to Shady as a solo, only with Slaughterhouse and Budden fucked that up by quitting rap.

They deleted the video for some reason
@@Ja.abbatta_V Yeah the old one had a shitton of views.
Crook is the GOAT. Period.
Got chills/goosebumps for about 30 seconds straight once it got to “he shot my brother” great song and message and you did justice to I gave you power! Great stuff
Not bad
Fucking most underrated song out right now, this should be blowing up
Most underrated MC ever 🐐
INCREDIBLE: concept, execution, storytelling, lyrics, delivery, production, and message ✊🏽
This is dope af. The KXNG never disappoints
NEVER REAL AF!!!!!!!!!! 💯
THE KING!!!
He tucked me in his back pocket. Now I'm just hanging out
Hahaha. I like that bar
THIS TRACK WAS RELEVANT FROM ITS DROP . GONNA B RELEVANT FOR LIFE
Cinematic.
The Lyricism in this is incredible, love how crooks just in the background dealing and smoking at the funeral, like that’s not even him, Cus obvs it’s the voice of the bandanna, top tier mc! GOAT
FIRE asf 🥶🔥🔥🔥🔥💪🏻😤Banger 🎯🤟🏻🖤🐺💯#realhiphop #beast #bars #respect #oneofthegoats
and that is the reason crook is in my top 5.Ηe is a modern poet.
American flag, I seen soldiers die over me
Seen mothers cry over me, wipin' they eyes, holdin' me
See, I was neutral 'til my designers put some colorful dye over me
Red or blue and changed my design totally
Cover me in paisley print to give you fashion
'Til gang members gave me power
Now I'm cut from a different fabric
Depend on which pocket you stick the rag in
I'm usually peekin' out the back of Dickies, saggin'
Bo-Born in the factory, shipped to the swapmeet
Put up on the shelf along with others of different colors
I see somebody's arm reach, picked the one that was the color purple like the movie
Guess he was reppin' Grape Street
Days went by, I'm just chillin' in the store 'til my future owner walked in the door
The hat he wore had Old English letters across it that read Long Beach
I saw his Chuck Taylors walkin' across the floor
He pointed at me, I was happy, I finally made it out
We jumped into his blue Challenger, music bangin' loud
We pulled up to his weed spot 'cause was slingin' loud
He tucked me in his back pocket, now I'm just hangin' out
Yeah, everything was cool 'til he did him some dirt
Tied me 'round his head, ain't your mama's style, while sippin' some Syrup
Ran up on his enemy and instantly went in his shirt
Changed his whole energy, I think this nigga's berserk
Did it in broad daylight so all his opps could learn a lesson
Before he sent 'em to Heaven, start yellin' the turf he reppin'
30 years of life, killer took it in 30 seconds
Then he used me to wipe his fingerprints off the murder weapon
People filmin' the victim, they ain't conscious to his health
They unconscious as him, ain't even dude some help
We sped off in the car, my owner talkin' to his self
Said it's his enemy's fault, he brought the coffin to himself
Had to show 'em what was crackin', he went home, changed clothes
Showed up to his son's birthday party like nothin' happened
Left me in the car tied around his rearview mirror
The windshield clean, nothin' could make my clear view clearer
I seen a truck pull up, thought it was a family tryna fall through
Until they jumped out in bright colors, I think they Damu
My relatives tied around they faces, these niggas Piru
They saw through the Challenger's windows and knew that I was all blue
One said, "Yeah, that's his car, he gettin' knocked off"
Kicked in the door to the party, start lettin' shots off
Leanin' against the livingroom wall, that's where they caught dawg
Poor kid, 12th birthday, he seen his pops fall
His auntie rushed to his dad, said, "They shot my brother
Shot my brother, they got my brother
Oh, God, please, not my brother
Somebody call an ambulance
Please, somebody, go and call my mother"
His gold watch covered in blood, it was time to kill
Them niggas did it, then them niggas peeled, that shit was real
My owner always said that this bangin' would get him killed
What they did to Crip was so coldblooded, I get the chills
At his funeral, his fam and his crew trippin'
Head stitched up in the casket 'cause half of his roof missin'
His suit drippin', his homie just laid me 'cross his chest
'Cause even after death, this nigga ain't through Crippin'
I'm startin' to gain clarity, just bury me with the nigga that carry me
I don't want no more gangstas wearin' me
It ain't cool to die before your parents and apparently the hood got mental problems, you all need some therapy
Now here come Jeremy, that's my owner's son
The one that seen him blasted, starin' in the casket, face plastic
He told his pops, "Go 'head, rest in peace, Daddy
I'ma take care of mama, go 'head and sleep, Daddy
You know I'ma be just like you"
Then he picked me up, said, "Now I'm 'bout this Crip life too"
Damn
This record should have 1 million views. Loved how crooked flipped nas concept and still made it dope
How is this not all over the place? Crook always brings it and the message is on point. Crook as always been one of my favorites in the game and it’s a damn shame this man keeps putting out nothing but 🔥 and is slept on so damn hard. Ridiculous.
