Ny intervju med Crooked I

"I’m not mad at rappers who make songs about dances. But the thing about it is back when Kid N’ Play did it, they actually knew how to rap, knowhatimsayin’? When Shock G. said, “Do The Humpty Hump,” it was funny—it was all fun and games—but Shock G. knew how to rap. It’s different now. People make up dance songs and they don’t how to rap.

It’s crazy, because more and more people are sinking. It’s like we not rapping no more. It’s like ever since Lil’ Wayne did “Lollipop,” which was a good song—huge success for him and I’m sure the bank account is on happy status right now—but since he did “Lollipop,” then T.I. came with “Whatever You Like” and Kanye came with 808’s, that’s three of the top emcees in the game right now—singing.

It’s not no knock towards them because they do what they do—I got respect for all three of those dudes—but I wanna hear them rap. As a fan, I don’t wanna hear them sing. So, I think what we gonna do is make people wanna jump back on that mic like, “Nah, fuck that. Put a beat on, nigga. I still know how to do this,” that type of shit."

Crooked I om B.O.S.S:

"What I’m gonna do is leak one song a week kinda like the weeklies, but I’m going give a commentary on what I was thinking, what mindstate I was in when I made this certain song, what made me do it, and all that kinda stuff. Ricky got the “boss” shit right now anyway, yanamean? He’s doing a good job with it so he can have that lane right now. I was in that lane pre-“Hustlin’”. That’s cool, he’s doing his thing, and he can do that. But I definitely want the people to hear it because it’s some great quality music on there. I’m workin’ on my new joint, man. I don’t even know what this music is gonna be for because after the “incident,” I was feeling like I needed to switch lanes. I need to put a lot more perspective in my shit—just life shit."
