Bring It Back: Crooked I – Hip Hop Weekly

Before the Slaughterhouse machine and the dopehouse were built, the West Coast B.O.S.S. embarked on a year long series. Dropping a new track every Wednesday in 2007-2008. Now, you have every artists with internet access doing something similar (no shots) but Crook was the originator and really didn’t leave room for another series to stand against it. I remember being one of the first to support the series back in my HipHopDX days and always wondering what beat was gonna be chosen. The entire collection can be downloaded below and if you hit the jump I’ve included the three mixtapes he did with the homie September 7th.

    but some of these are beyond dope.

  16. Wow… this is fucking awesome

  17. Crooked goes Effing hard.

  18. thx buddy

  19. Awsome post shake,

    I remember 2 years ago every wednesday i would wait impentinetly to see what crooked will kill and it was just an incredible series what he did was amazing.

    classic ! .. classic stuff, thanks

  20. i’m still playing that recent fire flies freestyle all the time

  21. CROOKED MUTHAFUCKIN I!!!! dopest lyricist on the west

  22. Gay sex pictures and all, shake do be comin thru wit the music. That’s why i come back to the site everyday. Like your sexuality doesn’t effect the dope music.

  23. Thanks Shake!

  24. I remember gettin excited every thusday for this shit. Haha

  25. Yo shake, could we get some artwork for the entire collection download?

  26. I got into the series pretty late into it’s run, but goddamn that last song blew my mind. When that shit hit the Nirvana sample, I lost it.

  27. C.O.Beezy !!!

  28. My maaaan.

  29. I’m going to give this a chance. I don’t like crooked I at all but maybe I was listening hard enough

  30. so tha 3 mixtapes are in that 1st link? or is this the 52week series PLUS 3 mixtapes??

  31. just askin because if u add all 3 mixtapes tracks up its more than 52

  32. this tagged up properly or dj’ed up, i made a folder of all the original offa dubcnn back in the day and may be missing a few and wanna know if they are fucked with in any way, i hate dj screaming

  33. Crook murdered each and every one of the beats..This was truly an amazing series..It would be crazy if he brought this back again having new crooked material every week was so special…C.O.B. 4 Life!!!

  34. i look forward to hearing all these. i missed out on alot of these, i didn’t start following em’ until week 29 i think.

  35. @degee
    the 1st link is all 52+ weeks.. the 3 mixtapes are just how it was released after the series was done. the only postive in getting the djs version is that all the shoutouts in the songs r cut out so you don’t have to fast forward them. i didnt download the 1st link so i’m not sure if its the original versions with the shoutouts or the mixtape version all put in 1 link

  36. @Chuuch….that was Bill Clinton posting as my name (he’s on my nuts)…my name has a avatar/picture and link to my blog… Being a troll >> Wanting to be a troll/faking to be a troll/posting as another troll

  37. @Buckets cool thnx … dling now

  38. dope back then i never really followed crooked but now i do and i was always hearing how this was supposed to be real dope. definite good looks shake. oh and speaking of slaughterhouse wheres be3? ive been fiendin for that forever especially with that crook and bun joint

  39. @Jonnie I was jus being a dick. I don’t follow no one name in the comment section. I just seen a link and wanted to be a dick. Shake really does have naked pictures on the web tho. Dude gay.

  40. Lol wow

  41. lmfao

  42. ^^blah blah. hop off dude.

    and to answer the question. the first link is all 61 joints properly tagged, etc.

    then the mixtapes are how the songs were released after the fact.

  43. lol even though that isnt true if it was the jokes on him for going and looking at them then saying your gay lol

  44. Shake you sent them to me. I ain’t mad tho, you consistent wit the new music. I’m pretty sure that once you move from avid listener to blogger/producer/rapper/manager you automatically turn gay anyway. The whole cars/clothes/bitches thing is a facade. Rappers love dick.

  45. classic series. still bump these all the time, but it’s sad that homie still doesn’t have an album out after all these years. been waiting on him since 1999, kind of crazy…

  46. unbelieable series got me hooked on crook. went hard every week

  47. Before Slaughterhouse was even an idea! West Up!

  48. i hate fukin tags great way to fuk up songs….crooked fuked up his own songs smh

  49. Remember this was going to lead to his really dope single?

    Oh yeah that never happened.

    It’s hard to hate on the bars but as a solo artist he has yet to prove himself by crafting quality songs to an album. There’s something special about a classic collection of tracks and Crooked has yet to deliver.

    But, I’m forever indebted to this series just for those bars over Imagine. #25 I believe. Keeps my head up.

    So, fuck what I said, Crooked goes hard. Still anticipating his debut.

  50. Amazing series

  51. rofl this is super ironic, chuuurrrccchhh should probably stop dickriding shake before he calls him gay…..cmon dude he provides the world with some of the dopest music on the planet i dont understand how u could beef with dude

  52. btw imagine >>>>>>>> errythang thats been on the radio in this decade

  53. they can be dope individually but Slaughterhouse is corny as a group.

  54. we fuck with crooked i, he out here working

  55. this some washed up wack ass rapper

  56. DOPE!

  57. With huge files like this try using megaupload or mediafire.. Props

  58. Ah greatness putting all the Hip Hop weekly together.

  59. I’ll always remember him tearing those two Game joints new arseholes.

  60. This is the best series ever…

    only one that came close was Freeways month of madness

  61. hhw >

  62. bino white > crooked i

  63. The greatest collection/series ever created ! This shit still slaps hard . His lyrics are ahead of the game !

  64. Love the series but that link has a virus. Pop ups like crazy and a version of the trojan horse.

  65. slaughterrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

  66. If u still don’t think Crooked is dope after this u prolly never will. The craziest part of this series was you could tell he was literally writing and recording each week by the lines and shit he was saying. Which made it even more impressive its not like he had all these songs already written just slapping the lyrics on the newest hottest beats. Props to crook for this. This really made hip hop fresh and exiting for me again

  67. This was a dope series, and to me solidifies Crooked as an originator and someone unparalleled on the mic (compare some of his freestyles to other versions of tracks including originals & you’ll see).

    I thought, for a second this was a v2 of the series.

  68. Shaaaaake. Shoot us some artwork my dude

  69. not working. Add mediafire please

  70. i finally got it. Daaaamn, Crooked I is fiiiiiiire. This whole series is dope.

  71. megaupload plz

  72. shake post the horse shoe gang weeklys

  73. Shake I know i’m late as fuck on this one, but can u re-up? all of ‘em r deleted. I guess i didnt see the original post.

  74. Ether is da best

  75. links are dead, any chance of a re-up?

  76. any re-p, shake…

    link r dead-i-o’s!

  77. Links are broken man.
