If you havent already, check out crooked I's previous mixtape 'dynasty boss' (free download here) i personally like it better than the hiphop weekly mixtape... the man got skills.

nice sig love her booty, who is it?

I think Chris Brown made 50cent, J.T and Timbaland look like the 6th grade talent show compared to his act at the VMA's. 50cent part rapping was ok.. the beat box sounds was lame.

your posts in this thread are more than enough proof.

Curtis is a dope album. A lot of peoples expectations are way too high for 50 Cent.

I wonder if any rapper could put out an album half as good when you have a cool $400 mill from vitamin water alone. hmmm....

I've been a Crooked I fan for a LONG time, I have that Dynasty Boss Mix for sure, I like disc 2 the best :2 cents:

Also have his Evolution of a Boss LP and the Hiphop Weekly tracks, not to mention most of his singles...:pimp

I was just goin by recent albums that came out compared to Curtis...

I hate postin 2x in a row, but had to share this Crooked I freestyle....check this then try to tell me Curtis is better :2 cents:

Fuck it, even Thirstin Howl the 3rd kills pretty much everything Curtis has dropped in years https://youtube.com/watch?v=Z0d9SKUSpns

I have never really got into him. I prefer Underground Hip Hop/Rap.:)

these 3 rappers are all in total different categories.

50s a rapper embraced as a pop star. The kid makes hits.

Crooked I is a dude thats been trying and trying yet hasnt amounted to much or even have much to show for it. The label hes currently on is a start up owned by a couple Armenian guys based in Glendale Ca. along with a pretty talented younger cat named One 2 or 1 Two or 1,2 or whatever who is probably the most talented on a label that has gone as far as to sign washed up current no bodies like Krazy Bone. lol


Thirstin howl the motherfuckin 3RD! I love this cat. but i dunno what he has to do with the likes of 50 since success is no where near 50 yet is way higher then Crooked I. The only thing this cats similar to 50 in is the fact that they both started off dropin mixtape after mixtape (god i loved the polo days) but thirstin never made it past the mixtape. As a matter of fact, his albums even sound like mixtapes. TH3 is above average backpacker shit.
PS- i dont think i can EVER get Unique Londons voice out of my head after i heard Brooklyn Hardrock.

I liked his Get rich or die tryin album, that last one is the worst imo

I'm with you there on London's fuckin voice... holy fuck...

Ya, i know they can't really be compared, but it seems like 99% of hip hop threads are about 50, so I wanted to throw a couple lesser known names out there to give a better spectrum of some of the shit out there right now....
