Don’t know who Shotty is?  Neither did I.  He’s an up and coming UK rapper the decided to feature Crooked I on a song to get recognition.  Good work!

Charles Hamilton drops this dope track from his upcoming June
23rd album called, This Perfect Life. Crooked does his usual, and kills this dope ass beat. Nice!

I tried to put all the artist in the title, but it was 5 lines long. Anyhow, only a few West Coast artists are missing from this to make it complete.  This reminds me of that 11 minute One Blood remix a few years back.  Hijacked from OS.

Crooked I comes through hard on this one. It’s a blend of Hottest In Tha Hood and Kinda Like A Big Deal. As usual, Crook KILLS it. He’s talkin’ to somebody out in Boston, but He doesn’t say any names. 5 Star Hip Hop is a big deal!

Jihad gets a long list of artists to assist him in speaking on things that could possibly change the world.  Usually feature heavy songs aren’t the business, but this one is pretty dope.  The only deal breaker for me is the chorus; it’s kinda weird.  Besides that, this joint is dope.  Props to Mr. X.  **UPDATE: Link fixed!

The Best in the West, in my (TS Wun) opinion, Crooked I, revives a classic originally done by Ice Cube, with Jackin’ For Beats 2009. This one is way doper, however, as Crooked goes in over a variety of beats, and murders them all.

Ray J is a gangsta? Anyways, real nice track, and The Block Obama kills it.

New music from Tech N9ne. Now all three of these dudes go off on this, but I (TS Wun) have to say it’s a tie between Crooked I & Tech N9ne. Chino rips his verse, too. Tech N9ne’s new album entiteld Tech N9ne Collabos: Sickology 101 drops April 28th.
