Huh? Go Listen to some Holo / Warcloud. Hot 97, that _Silkworm_ record, _Bastard Swordsmen_ (w/ Killarmy), _Fever Dream, Crunch Time,_ etc. And I got mad respect for Slaughter House. They're like many others- on A level just below Holo.
Yeah agree with the guy above me crooked and k rino are probably the 2 best ever would give k rino the edge over crook but still Crook is apart of the best of the best
Crooked is fucking nuts. Seriously..his raps, flows, delivery..everything is perfect. And he's still the least popular dude in slaughterhouse. It blows my mind
No that's easily Ortiz then Budden. Royce and Crook neck to Neck for number one. But only cuz Royce stands beside Em so much. Crook kept death row alive by himself. Royce carrier was dead in the water when he beefed with eminem
I honestly was jumping up and down like a crazy person to Crooked I's Verse. :P He's the strongest part of Slaughterhouse i believe. Multi's for days, Punchlines, Wordplay.....I'm taking it a step further...this guy is easily neck and neck with Em.
Damn straight dude.. Back when pac blew up from suge knight, suge was choosing between him and pac to make a super star.. Pac was making so many moves that suge said he could only handle 1 superstar at the time unfortunately. But the dudes right there.. He's a fuckin legend
" find a good loop, hit the drum pad; and rhyme as hard as my biological sons dad!" people stay sleeping on Joell man. Him and Crook MURDERED this shit
One of the most iconic moments of lyricism in general. Never again will four dudes this unique and equally gifted come together as a group. These were special times man.
fuck yeah!!! See my mama named me Dominic that's synonymous with ominous I'm in this game to show you what drama is, I'm in this game to conquer it. Genghis Khan of this monstrous entourage. WHAT CHALLENGER CAN DODGE MY BARRAGE!!! Dude goes off on one!
Mazza Scazza I agree hopefully Slaughterhouses next album will get them more recognition their all dope and could go bar for bar with anyone in the game and body most of them ain't nobody fuckin with EM + Slaughterhouse!!!
I've listened to this probably 50 times and just realized Crooked said "you know my spine hungry/that mean I'm back starving!" They should have kicked the microphone and walked out the station!
Judging from a 2021 perspective,KXNG Crooked still the mc who stands out the most today outta all 4 of them,Royce da 5'9 is definitely the most improved mc by a mile to the point where stands on the podium of top tier mc's of all time and Joel still nice as ever and has also gotten better with time🤞🏾🔥🙌🏾
La leakers and sway royce freestyle. He came 1000 miles sense this. He was rhyming 2 or 3 syllables. He rhymes biblical fibnonacci sequence I'm la leakers, he came a universe.
@@BkuBrown his content after he left alcohol became wayy more mature and he has been using his multi syllables,punches,metaphors etc to express powerful messages and also having a lot more creative concepts making best bodies of work in the more latter years of his career
All of the group are amazing but Crooked is head and shoulders above. No one can rap the way this man does, the cadence combined with heavy punchlines and double/triple entendres is just crazy.
budden is so dope, life lessons hidden in bars. he's not as technical, but his soul food is crazy. once you get past the bars and there's a lot of information on emotional intelligence.
Imagine he would actually live like his emotional intelligence WOULD SUGGEST... His written words show he KNOWS, but he doesn't apply it to his life... But ain't that most of us? We all do things we know we shouldn't like that. Or don't do things we should do... PEACE
@@stephencox8723 I don't believe in the theory that people are different just because of a different shade of skin.. It's his character, no matter if he's purple or pink. Isn't that black on black racism? All the "ight skin" talk.. kinda f*cked up
@@nimmha6708 it’s a running joke in the black community that light skinned niggas are emotional/extra. It’s not that serious. It’s no different than joking that Jamaicans are short tempered or late. Joe is a hot head as to why he can’t apply his logical brain when he should. My bad it feels like i triggered some white guilt with that comment. Sorry if it made you feel badly reading it. I assumed you were in on that joke.
@@stephencox8723 Thank you for clearing that up for me then.. I really never understood the lightskin joke to be honest.. I love and respect all colors and really don't care about a person's skin.. If the character is aight, the whole nationality, belief, color of anything don't hold any weight. I'm sorry for putting you in a box I guess.. I'm just seeing a looooot of racist comments nowadays, so i kinda get triggered fast, I nowadays even see racism IN HIP-HOP... have a great week sir!
"See my momma named me Dominick, thats synonymous, with ominous, i'm in this, game to show you what drama is, i'm in this game to conquer it" ugh, dude to sick, best in group.
"You don't think that Crooked I's hot? Why not? Is it because my mind box in your blind spot? I sleep with one eye open like an insomnia stricken cyclops so I can rest in that pine box!" I think this is the best verse i've ever heard.
"We all god's kids, but I'm the chosen one. He took his time with me. He said 'I'm almost done... I just want to make his brain murder. and Add a lil' more down there so when he stroke He could go way further.' HA! She boning me cause you can't hurt her. You ain't got nathan on my frankfurter!" - Joell Ortiz ... It's rappers like this that provide the reason for me being such a tough critic on the genre. It's true that too many weak ass rappers are becoming popular and rich and aren't even remotely close to being as lyrically talented as these fellas in Slaughterhouse. IT'S RAP! ALL YOU GOT IS YOUR VOICE AND YOUR LYRICS (CAUSE MOST OF YA DON'T MAKE YOUR OWN BEATS EITHER), AND IF BOTH OF THOSE ARE WEAK, YOU AIN'T SHIT!
Joell Ortiz was SO UNDERRATED on this freestyle. Alot of people didn't think Joell's verse was as hot because he spit right after Crooked-I. Both of their freestyles were hot in my opinion but I think Joell should've got some more credit cause his delivery was on point.
I play this shit back just waiting for that break before Joell comes in... He is so unreal dope on this track it's crazy. "Pull off in a sick 'Rarri, and all you'll see is paper plates like a kid's party" FIRE
"Look at the DuPont registry...that's my garage". Cali Crooked shredded that beat. So glad that this crew exists and that they're getting the play they deserve.
Someone needs to make these dudes sit down and rewatch this today. Look at how they all 4 showed up with eachother, walked in the building as a group. Then during/after each verse, they can be heard hyping their mans up, or giving their approval at the least. Except when one of them clearly catches fire with their verse (Crook) they are ALL wild'n out for their brother. These guys are brothers. This is all some bullshit going on right now that should not even be happening at all. God damnit.
full109 Joe is better than Joell.. I’d take Royce over all of em but Joe’s content elevates him over Crook in my eyes. Crook is great for a verse but I’d rather hear a Joe album
Brandon Reed nah bra I can’t agree with that, I agree with the album thing tho but when I hear slaughter house all together on they song it seem Joel outshines joe ALOT I can’t think of to many verses joe had that’s better the Joel and they left joe off a lot of they songs. Crooked is good for a verse but I’m talking bout who raps better if crook is good for a few verses his verses will outshine joes I’m not talking about music I’m talking bout who rap better crook cyphers are better than joe again imo bar for bar
Crooked I: I'm Lovie Smith my team bear with me. DAMN HIP HOP is back. Love Slaughter House. They gave HIP HOP a heart ventilation. Make me wanna go back to writing.
Crooked spit one of the greatest verses in the history of hip hop. The bars, the delivery, the wordplay. Impossible to replicate.
FACTS!!!!!!?
MHHMMM
💯
Huh? Go Listen to some Holo / Warcloud. Hot 97, that _Silkworm_ record, _Bastard Swordsmen_ (w/ Killarmy), _Fever Dream, Crunch Time,_ etc. And I got mad respect for Slaughter House. They're like many others- on A level just below Holo.
it was spectacular
Crooked is literally one of the greatest, if not the greatest lyricist to live. fucking barsssss
Him & K-Rino 👍💯
Yeah agree with the guy above me crooked and k rino are probably the 2 best ever would give k rino the edge over crook but still Crook is apart of the best of the best
hats off. we need this group back
Griselda saved the game at least
still get chills when I hear this verse from crooked
I read this comment just as I was getting chills once again at Crooked's part
Just throwing multis about
i'm shooked by crooked
David Webb him and royce destroyed it
I promise I just got the chills
Crooked is fucking nuts. Seriously..his raps, flows, delivery..everything is perfect. And he's still the least popular dude in slaughterhouse. It blows my mind
JRScrambo true...
No that's easily Ortiz then Budden. Royce and Crook neck to Neck for number one. But only cuz Royce stands beside Em so much. Crook kept death row alive by himself. Royce carrier was dead in the water when he beefed with eminem
check out his cousins Horseshoegang they fire.
@@jaysheeze yeah peoples east coast bias needs to change
Crooked I is a GOAT level MC
"Every rapper claim they a mixture of Big and Pac, I'm a mixture of Me and Me"
I felt that
"my pen game is sick call it penicillin" that is some crazy word play
Royce said it in one of his songs too idr which tho.
x1OnFire probably but i could of swore i heard him say it too on one of his songs i think it was ER or something cant remember.
Pen Is Illin
@@captainsmoke6089 word[play to the third power if you can follow what I mean! Crooked is sick with it!
Crooked been slept on for 2 god dam decades. Noone spits like him, his delivery and flow is unreal
Yo!!!! He absolutely destroyed this beat...
"What Challenger can Dodge my barrage" Luv that!!!
joel went craaaaaaaaaazy

One of the most iconic moments of lyricism in general. Never again will four dudes this unique and equally gifted come together as a group. These were special times man.
Crook dropped one of the best raps ever
No cap one of the best verses in the history of rap
Crooked I is underrated! He's an amazing lyricist.
they all are, Royce is up there too along wit Ortiz.....some people just don't respect the craft of hip hop//smh
I haven't heard amazing lyrics in years, glad I clicked on this video
Fly girl magnet, I’m infectious; if I have it, your girl has it
This verse is Earv Magic
I heard it but could not figure it out until I wrote it down...and I was like WHUUUUUTRUSEROUS!!!!!!!
*🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥*
😭😭😭😭😭🔥🔥🔥🔥
Jesus Christ. They all went hard but Crooked murdered that shit.
they gave him Shook Ones, he had to kill it
Joell is definetly the Comedian emcee in the group lol....The Chubaka and Broke Back Mountain bars were hilarious 😂😭👍💯
As old as this is it never gets old! Crooked I is a lyrical monster
Old as this is? 24 years years ago he was putting heat down on Kurupt's "I ain't sh.. without my homeboys"
Crooked I's verse is probably the best ever conceived
Still in 2021 one of the best freestyles of all time. Crook went OFF🔥🔥🔥🔥
I wish it was 2021😢
I sleep with one eye open like an insomnia stricken Cyclops cause I could rest in that pine box.
Pack it in. We're done here.
Braden Kessler Lmao Yooooooo
Lmfaaoooo
🤦🏾♂️🤦🏾♂️🤦🏾♂️
"What challenger can dodge my barrage" That went over my head so many times lmao
Damn!!
is it a runescape reference
Challenger dodge...yup... past me up too
Crooked is a lyrical cyborg
Joe Budden "I got stories from my hood that'll rival those of war vets".
He got that corvette, war vet rhyme from Em lowkey. Still nice though.

fuck yeah!!! See my mama named me Dominic that's synonymous with ominous I'm in this game to show you what drama is, I'm in this game to conquer it. Genghis Khan of this monstrous entourage. WHAT CHALLENGER CAN DODGE MY BARRAGE!!! Dude goes off on one!
Crooked I ALWAYS. BRINGS. FIRE.
I think he's the most underrated rapper, he's got flow, longevit, punchlines and the dude is funny
he's in my top 3 in the game right now along with Kendrick and Eminem
Mazza Scazza I agree hopefully Slaughterhouses next album will get them more recognition their all dope and could go bar for bar with anyone in the game and body most of them ain't nobody fuckin with EM + Slaughterhouse!!!
“It’s all Lovie Smith, my team bear with me” 🔥🔥🔥
Crooked is just too good man.
Slaughterhouse is a serious problem💯
I've listened to this probably 50 times and just realized Crooked said "you know my spine hungry/that mean I'm back starving!" They should have kicked the microphone and walked out the station!
Antonio Merriweather bruh thats still 1 of the hardest bars I ever heard🤦🏽♂️
That is weak
@@arnoldles858 you weak nigga
Whack as fuck.
Antonio Merriweather Joe budden was the weak link but they all spit
yo crook and joell killed this. WOW they sound like they are still hungry and just deliver something i dont think many people can do
errbody was raw, but Crooked and Joell hopped on a spaceship and took off.
Still watch this every so often, crooked destroyed this.
Jimmy as did Joell I mean he had to he went after crooked
Damn Crooked killed that.
Yesss he did bruh

I return to this masterpiece every month to remind myself that Crooked I is Top 5 Dead or Alive 🐐.

Do you know the beat Joell spit on?

Good luck picking out who ripped it better when it comes to Slaughterhouse, that's what real hip hop is. These 4 are straight monsters.
Craig Dooley crook easily

Royce has such an ill flow.
Damn, now this is what you call a damn crew. Everybody bodied the beat and then Joel went ahead and closed it out. Crazy

Joell had so many gems in his verse.
"Unless it's an old Biggie verse don't put Faith in your raps"

honestly Joell's was my least favorite. not to say he didn't kill it cause they all went in, but just my opinion.
