Hopsin recalls Crooked I being highly upset months after Funk Volume and Horseshoe Gang battle.
According to Los Angeles rapper Hopsin, Crooked I threatened to visit him at his Los Angeles show following a perceived diss. During an interview with Vlad TV, Hopsin spoke on the fallout that resulted after he posted a fan’s “Fuck Horseshoe Gang” t-shirt on Instagram.
The rapper explained that although the photo was posted months after the back-and-forth battle between Funk Volume and Horseshoe Gang, a rap group comprised of Crooked I’s biological brothers, the Slaughterhouse lyricist was heated after coming across the photo.
“They didn’t kill Funk Volume. It was a fun battle…Things kinda went too far,” Hopsin said. “I don’t know their background like that…Crooked I, they all threatened to come to my show. And I didn’t know what was gonna happen. I was like ‘Fuck, dude’…Everything was dead, but then I saw a fan at a show. And this was just like two months into the tour we did. Horseshoe Gang was like two months ago. It was all done. But then a fan just had a shirt that said ‘Fuck Horseshoe Gang.’ And I thought it was funny…So, I took a picture of him and posted it on Instagram. Crooked I got mad.”
Hopsin says he considered taking the post down, but was encouraged by friends not to. Upon texting Crooked I about the photo, he says he soon realized that the rapper was at a level of anger “that was out of Hip Hop.”
“I texted him…cause I saw that he was really upset by it,” he said. “And he was on some–It turned into some gangster shit real quick. And I’m not about that life. That’s not my world at all…They’re like ‘You’ll look like a bitch if you take it down.’ I’m like ‘Bro, this is beyond rap’…I didn’t know how to feel about it. Cause Crooked I, he was clearly expressing an anger that was out of Hip Hop. And I didn’t know where he was gonna take it.”

Crooked is just jealous of hopsin’s next level thinking and over his head metaphors
Lol really? You make it seem like Hopsin is iconic. He has not one classic album. He is a decent rapper tho. But that’s about it.
Crooked I has been corny to me ever since he changed his name to King crook or whatever . Almost as corny as hopsin . Cornballs
Kxng Crooked last album was fire tho. He can rap his ass off who cares if u thinks he’s corny just cause he changed his name.
Hopsin is the corniest rapper walking the earth, skills notwithstanding I dont get how anybody who has hit puberty can listen to this dude rap and not cringe.
Crooked I is a hasbeen that never was backpack rapper who has alot of nerve getting “Gangsta” with this nerve after he released an entire DVD about how scared he was for his life going through the death row problem.
*Yawn* @ both these dudes.
*drake is the corniest rapper walking the earth
Hahahaha. Yerp!
Munny man is being a serious cock sucker crooked is a good rapper who sucks at writing about something other than gangsta shit his albums are not classic at all
Crooked i has some of the best flows in the game hate on someone else. We need more guys who take the craft seriously bitch ass nigha
Crooked should have just beat this little bitch’s ass. Only people who like Hopsin are white kids under the age of 15. Those are the only people who think he’s deep or funny.
False
Everyone here sounds like haters and racists saying shit like “only white people like hopsin”. Yup, my skin is white, and I listen to Hopsin. I also like Nas, Kendrick, Dre, Vince Staples, Eminem, and crap ton of other rappers. Dont hate cause a rapper has more fans, its pathetic. Y’all wanna hate? write a rap song about it and see if people like it.
Im white and you sound like a dumb embred cracka
*inbred
OG loc? Dude you ain’t no og, you’re just a kid that talks trash on the internet.
So is this goof troop a wannabe rapper? Please tell me he is 12 years old. Grown men don’t look like that.
I hate this dude! Is there anything he do not complain? he complains about funk volume. he complains about his fans. I mean If you are someone you should appreciate, not diss. Why nobody from funkvolume says anything bad about management? This dude also claims that he is the one who did everything. I could not dare to say this If I were in his shoes and friends in the company. This is also disrespectful to other artists who struggled along the way. Enough of him!
Now If you’ve got envy towards Hop…bruh you motherfuckin lost and you’ll never restrain from your madness!
Hospin and D’Allan Rixx my fave rappers
Crook is one of my favorite rappers but y he mad cuz Horshoe gang lost. It has nothin to do wit him. Aint they grown?
Only white people like weirdo cornball rappers like hopsin and tyler the creator.They can relate to these goofballs because they dress and act like hipster nerds. White people don’t relate to real niggas like gucci mane. White people fear real niggas like gucci cause they know they will get robbed and smacked for acting like hipsters in front of a real nigga. Free gucci.
Im white and i can relate to gucci and would rep gucci all day not all white kids are little trust fund babies outa the suburbs
And fyi try smackin me mother fucker i carry 2 guns on me everywhere i go nice and legaly too ready to unload 36 rounds into anyone wantin to fuck around
Whoa you’re so hard man

Not a gangsta at all just a citizen who knows his rights and enjoys the one where he can carry whatever the fuck he wants on him as long as he had a little permitt for anyone who thinks they wanna start shit carry 2 guns on me and keep an ar 15 under the backseat of the truck
Yea well next time before you say “fuck someone” in any sense you should be ready for a follow up and some people take shit farther than others thats why its better just to watch what the fuck you say unless your ready to get down
So, who the f___ actually won? And who did they get to judge it? Personally I didn’t feel HS at all but Crooked goes hard. Needs to calm down though unless FV was the one to determine the winner. And Hop is all over the road, although I don’t particularly care.
Spoken like a true pussy that wears cat eye contact lenses
Haha its real outchea. You talk ish, better be ready to back it up. Rappers needs to stop being so sensitive though.its just a rap battle, sheesh.
TRUMP FOR PRESIDENT!!! Only Trump can end modern day slavery!
Crooked is a beast on d mike… hop has done some good songs but has nowhere near d skills n resume that Crooked has… wot did hop think was gona happen from him posting sum shit up like that… real ppl will take it there real quick so its simple just watch d buttons u push ✌
Didn’t Crooked-i say in his interview that he feels an artist should rap about whatever they wanna rap about and these kids should be trying to come up off of the streets, Hopsin started a whole Movement and Crooked and his Bros are still stuck at Home… I’m not entierly sure we’re getting the whole story- B3cause this is my understanding of the timeline.
Hop makes Argent Comment
Horseshoe Gang gets trolled into the conflict by Caller
HSG drops Half a Meal
a Week later FV drops “Happy Meal” *Hilarious
Within the Hours HSG puts out another track “Same Day”
Hopsin Tweets: Regardless of who you think won the Battle you all should still follow @HSG
Crooked-i: Claims Victory (No idea what’s going on in the background)
Hopsin has little to nothing to say on the mantra, but doesn’t want beef with Crooked or HSG
*****
****
Nothing happens for awhile until a fan shows up to Hop’s show with a Fuck HSG T-shirt
(Which Hop takes a picture with before proceeding to post it on Twitter, because Smart)
Crooked-i gets real pissed (How pissed is anyone’s guess)
Hop says Crooked threatened to come to his show and he is unsure if that meant to rap or blast,
but crooked wasn’t being clear about it.
Hop essentially apologizes to Crooked
The whole story is condulited as fuck and we’re not likely to know for sure if Crooked is a Hypocrite and willing to actually shoot up the club or send his goons to do it on his behalf or if Hop’s blowing shit out of proportion and being a little bitch.. Well one things for sure Hop was definitely being a little Bitch, but I still thing FV in general makes better music… If Hop had a Real off the Dome Rap battle with Crooked-i he’d get rekt’d (Period)
Emperor Gucci.. sorry and sad as hell. This just shows exactly how much Hop is above and beyond. this hating ass clown can’t be serious. And Hope still took the high road. Just straight comedy spoken. maybe and most likely, just jealousy and ignorance..
