Long Beach lyricist Crooked I has incurred the wrath of the right-wing with the first single from his forthcoming album, Million Dollar $tory, thanks to sly shots aimed at political pundit Glenn Beck (while simultaneously anointing his “hottie” daughter “Princess Slaughter”) as well as additional prominent conservatives Sarah Palin and Rush Limbaugh.
“I just wanted to ruffle some people’s feathers,” Crook told HipHopDX in late June about his “Everyday” barbs. “And I did, ‘cause people was hittin’ my Twitter from the Tea Party with the angry rants. [Laughs] It struck a nerve.”
While conservatives may have just recently become aware of “Everyday” thanks to last month’s video accompaniment to the thumping track, the song was actually released formerly back in March alongside the stellar self-examination “Villain” and rugged hater brush-off “OKBye”
on Million Dollar Story (The EP). And Crooked is well aware that his pre-Tea Party listeners have been patiently waiting for the Million Dollar LP that he estimated to DX will finally hit store shelves in August.
“Sometimes the fans, they get upset with me, and they say, ‘Yo, we been waiting,’ and I understand,” the Circle Of Bosses CEO conceded. “But with the independent thing, I gotta make sure that I dot my i’s and cross my t’s. … It’s all coming out of my own pocket. It’s coming out from my company. I got a few partners in my company, and we’re just trying to make sure that we spend our money wisely in marketing and in the promo. We’re not Def Jam [Records] obviously, so we can’t just throw projects against the wall and see what stick. We gotta really be careful with the way we spend our cheese.”
Cheese was surely well spent on the sound for his $tory, which Crook revealed was supplied by StreetRunner, DJ Khalil, Mr. Porter, Rick Rock and an assemblage of fresh, new beatmakers.
The other three-fourths of Slaughterhouse, Twista, Jay Rock, Glasses Malone, Mistah F.A.B. and his C.O.B. familia comprise the guest list for the first official full-length of the former Virgin and Death Row Records’ artist’s 15-year career.
“My whole thing is that I been through a lot of ups and downs in this industry,” he reminded, “and [so] I’m definitely happy that I can put this project out independently because that means that I can oversee everything. I can do whatever the fuck I want.”
Even with his long-delayed LP receiving an independent release, Crooked will still be making his major-label debut later this year as he and his Slaughterhouse crew look to stuff stockings with a holiday season release for their first Shady/Interscope Records offering.
Royce Da 5’9 recently divulged to DX that heavy hitters Just Blaze, Swizz Beatz and Boi-1da have already supplied some serious heat to the foursome for their upcoming album, but Crook is certain that will not be the full and final production lineup for the project.
“There’s gon’ be some other names,” he explained, “because I mean, Em ain’t even really walked in there and just blessed us yet. And you know he’s gonna produce some joints on there, and that’s just gon’ be ridiculous – retardulous, whatever you wanna call it.”
Another producer Crooked is hoping to still receive some retardulous tracks from for the Slaughterhouse album is the man he nearly signed to 12 years ago before sentencing himself to Death Row.
“I know the scheduling and timing and all that blahda ladda, but man, Slaughterhouse need to be in there with [Dr.] Dre,” he noted. “If they was to ask me what my wish list was, or who I wanna get on this fuckin’ album, it’s gonna be Dr. Dre. … I ain’t go through hell and a hand-basket to get to where I’m at to not fuck with the good doctor. [Laughs] Shit. I’m in the fuckin’ building; I’m in Interscope. Dre, where you at, baby? We need them goddamn tracks. [Laughs]”
After proceeding to declare Dre his personal choice for greatest producer in Hip Hop history, Crooked addressed some of his history with the doctor, including the now five-year-old “Say Dr. Dre” and whether or not that track was solicited or unsolicited for one of the original incarnations of Detox.
“I knew he was taking submissions,” explained Crook, “and some people had hit me up about writing some stuff. So that was just what it was. And it leaked, which was horrible for me, ‘cause once the shit leaked it’s over. Ain’t nobody using that shit. But, I worked on a few things …. He had some bangers in there when I did that. When I went in there, he already had a classic album just laying around in them hard drives.”
“I don’t know, but it’s like, sometimes it feels like the album is never coming out,” he added about Dr. Dre’s now seemingly mythical finale. “But he got crazy shit over there.”
While Crooked continues to wait along with the rest of the Hip Hop nation for Dre to finally share with the world the classic album he has lying around, Mr. Pigface is keeping busy with his own musical output, having just released his crew compilation, Planet C.O.B. Vol. 2, featuring Coniyac (formerly of Doggy’s Angels), Horseshoe G.A.N.G., and the whole Circle of Bosses camp.
On one of the compilation’s two solo songs from Crook, the left coast vet predicts he will one day be joining the legendary ranks of “Pac & Biggie” .
“Basically I’m saying I wanna have an impact like them when I’m gone,” he explained. “Because to me, they had the greatest impact on the game. And I don’t never want people to forget that as … we get into this new generation. If you a young 14, 15-year-old kid, you an Odd Future fan, I want you to know that ‘Pac and Biggie are somebody that you should always know about if you a fan of Hip Hop, period.”

Crooked = G.O.A.T..plain and simple.. untouchable. kills your fav rapper…fuck album sales…just cuz a movie is #1 at the box office dont make it good.. Crook is lyrically better than anyone right now..
How many rappers do you know? 5? He’s good, but not even close to being the GOAT.
im 30 yrs old…I know more artists than u for sure…i can bet on that ..just by ya comment…you just prolly know Crook form Slaughterhouse…catch up son… hes been doin it for years!!! G.O.A.T plain and simple.. i see u didnt mention not 1 rapper lol…fuck outta here
umm ever heard of a guy named Tupac? Or Notorious B.I.G? Or Pig Pun? Maybe you meant greatest alive, and then I’d have to bust out Scarface, or Andre 3000, or like 20 other dudes. Crooked is sweet as hell, don’t get me wrong, but he’s not even the best in Slaughterhouse brah. Definitely not the G.O.A.T….
Pac great, Big great, Pun was very good but very overrated…Andre 3000 is good more meanin then lyrical, Scarface was Pacs fav rapper too..I got mad love for Scarface but LYRICALLY not better then Crooked…and as for SH Crook kills all of’em…Joell is 2nd best…and prolly 2nd best in the game right now….Budden and Royce CANNOT compete with Crook or Joell…ive listened to ALL there shit…Lyrically not better..do you know how many tracks and mixtape Crook has or been on…or how long he been in the game
oh and all 3 of them admitted it..thats a fact
lol wow when are these artists going to realize thy don’t know shit about politics. smh what a dumbass.
Your an American Citizen, You have the right to an opinion
Same As Crooked I has the right to share his opinion
Yes, they have an opinion but that doesn’t mean it is an intelligent opinion. Too many entertainers sound off about politics and don’t know anything they are arguing besides that it pisses them off. If you have an opinion, give factual reasons to why you disagree with them. I’m not just saying with Crooked but with artists in general. They have too many people looking up to them to go on an irrational rant that just makes them look like idiots and not people who professional people would even take seriously.
Exactly, then they end up going on the O’Reilly Factor or what not and end up looking like idiots. Lupe Fiasco and Cam’Ron are perfect examples. It doesn’t help the perception of HipHop in the mainstream media and just enforces the idea that they’re idiots. I completely respect Crooked I and his opinion, he’s actually one of my favorite rappers, but he’s just asking for persecution in this case. You don’t think Glenn Beck is going to make this guy sound like the biggest idiot ever? Just stick to music, or actually educate yourself about something before you sound off about it.
^^^Glenn beck is a fucking moron himself so i dont think he will make anyone look like a complete idiot. Also, just cause your a rapper doesnt mean your uninformed or cant be intelligent enough to speak on politics. I bet immortal technique can debate o’reilly, he can articulate himself very well if u seen his interviews. Talib, wise intellect and chuck d can articulate themselves real well too. The Problem is alot of times when rappers speak on politics they can say it better in rhyme than talking & debating other people. Rap has always been about rebelling against the estalishment and oppresors so why try to tell a rapper he cant speak on politics? U really think were being 100% informed by the ppl on fox or ppl in news media period? really? we get half-truths all the time and if anyone, especially a rapper wanna speak out on it, let them, its their constituional right to.
Okay, but all crooked did was diss glenn beck and the tea party and u know why? cause their assholes who arent basing their arguements on 100% facts either. Just sayin…
You guys are doing the same fucking thing, you didn’t produce one fact to support your statement. I just used Glenn Beck as an example because Crooked I mentioned him. And you seriously disagree with that? HE’S GOING TO LOOK LIKE AN IDIOT TO GLENN BECK’S AUDIENCE. Fox News has more viewers than all of the other news stations combined, you don’t think it hurts hip hop when they come out and make themselves look stupid? If they could sit down and have an intellectual conversation it would support their cause. I support Hip Hop so I’m tired of it having such a horrible reputation among most intelligent people. Just mouthing off with horrible grammar is NOT the way to get respected. I’d proudly support an artist that would go on the O’Reilly Factor and not look like a dumbass…
Everyone jumps on the “I hate Glen Beck, He’s a racist” bandwagon. What I wanna know is what solid arguments do you have that he is bad politically? The consensus is that he can be an extremist but in everything I have seen when compared to other media outlets, he is not saying or doing anything that isn’t in favor of resurrecting this country from where it is at. I always hear people saying they hate him but I rarely hear a solid argument of why they hate him besides what they hear from other naysayers.
@hach
It’s because they’ve never watched him and have no idea what they’re talking about. All they’ve seen are clips taken out of context on left-wing news sources. All the people that think he’s a racist or what not are out of touch with society in general, they’re lost causes. They also have no idea that he used to have a show on CNN..
JSampson- you’re a fool. What it is that “rappers” have to prove to FOX News exactly? Blacks have been calling these people like Beck on their bullshit for many years, I’m talking as far back as Jim Cow. It’s only now after the shit hit the fan in 2008 with crash that people are echoing what we’ve been saying about the Gov. for YEARS!! PE said it. NWA said it. KRS One said it. Almost all the rappers from the late 80’s said it. But all the good ol’ boys brushed it off as crying about nothing. The good ol’ days for minorities NEVER existed to begin with.
haha Jim Cow? Congratulations, you just made yourself look like an idiot on the internet! The artists you are talking about should have stayed out of politics too. Obviously you missed the point of this conversation. I could explain how wrong you are but that’s honestly a waste of my time. You should go do some research before you respond back.
@hach so fox news are a real realiable source for facts and facts only? thats what your saying? glenn beck is on point w/ everything he says? hannity is on point? ann coulter? REALLY??? and u talk about clips taking ppl out of context?? HELLO, incase u missed it, fox news does the same shit all the time when they show a clip of someone TOO. Liberal news media? u got to be a conservative or naive as hell. And no im not a liberal, im a person who has the common sense to know bullshit when i see it.
Im not a fan of news media in general but how could u defend fox in particular? This is the same news channel that made controversy out of common’s invite to the white house not too long ago? plus, they showed favoritism to bush and his foreign policies when it came to the iraq war especially? this is the same news channel (along with the rest of media) that depicted muslims as terriost and had commentators that made stereotypical remarks on muslims. Same thing with illegal immigrants (u know they that mexicans and immigrants get shitted on over at fox news). I could go on but i think u get where im coming from by now…
If you both actually watched Fox News you would realize how stupid you sound. How about trying to form your own opinion based on experience instead of just what you may have heard? I could tell you that Glenn Beck has fucking angel wings and you would believe me unless you actually watched the show and realized I was spittin’ bullshit.
J Sampson u know darn well he means jim crow and u know darn well why specifically rappers dont like the MODERN DAY republican party and conservatives today. Its not like u know all the facts to everything yourself so stop putting down rappers for speaking their mind on politics and politicans.
@J Sampson thats where your wrong, I have watched it, which is why i can say all those things that i’ve stated about fox news. Do u need me to watch glenn beck again and go over what he said point by point to confirm that im not bullshitin u when i’ve said i’ve watched it or something?
Hey, dont get me wrong j sampson i actually think alot of things u are saying is sensible & even valid but just cause rappers speak against them dont mean they’re uninformed nor does it mean their points arent valid. I think half the rappers dont know wtf they are talking about and the other half have educated themselves on well enough to speak on it.
did this writer seriously just use the word retardulous in a sentence?
hahaha yeah, that’s some bullshit.
There were quotes around the statement so Crooked I was being quoted. Just pointing that out….
read it again, no quotes around it, the quote stars the next paragraph
okay i see it, crooked said it first, then the writer used the word to describe beats he hopes to get from dre
yea id like too se crooked spit over sum dre beats,
funny how these rappers are all of a sudden down for the government. stupid fucks. when Bush was in office, it was fuck the government. Now that obama is in office, it’s all about the government is here to help us. fucking idiots.
“George W. Bush hates black people” – Kanye West. lmao
Where did crooked say he trusted the government now that obama is in office?? he didn’t? oh, well u should stfu up then and quit making assumptions that just cause rappers diss the modern day conservatives they automatically support the other side or obama.
^^^oh yeah, rappers have always dissed the government, long before the bushes got into office.
J Sampson:
“George W. Bush hates black people” – Kanye West. lmao
^^he didnt say bush hates black people
“Bush doesnt Care about black people” – Kanye West.
Not caring about someone vs hating someone are 2 different things
@You got the quote wrong
Haha sorry, I didn’t look it up to get it 100%. I just think it’s so funny that Bush said that was the low point of his presidency.
that shit he wrote for dre is fukin sick I can just hear dre’s voice spittin same lines woulda been a classic
I’m not to familiar with the whole Tea Party thing but from what I understand its more of a Conservative Republican type of movement, in which case it doesnt surprise me that a rapper would talk shit about it, most rappers (or Blacks in general) tend fall on the other side of the line
Yeah, you’re completely right about that. That’s one of the main reasons I think they should keep their mouths shut about it. Up until JFK’s presidency the black vote ALWAYS went to the Republicans, because the Dems we’re the ones that supported slavery. Then JFK bailed MLK out of jail and it all changed. Funny how everyone seems to forget that now..
@ J Sampson
Never knew that, Guess you have a point
I dunno, Conservatives & Liberals both piss me off in diffrent way, I think we need a new political party, The “We promise not to say one thing and do another” political party, I’d vote for them
^^ lmao I would completely support that party, 99.7% politicians are full of shit.
@J Sampson not true! there were republicans that supported the kkk back in the early 1900s so both sides supported racism against blacks. Republicans were looked at as the good guys mainly cause of abraham lincoln yes but both sides did support racism against blacks and both supported segregation.
amen to that, SutterKane. both parties piss me off in different ways as well. kinda the reason why i view myself as centrist or a libertarian, although i’m probably around 60% Democrat and 40% Republican.
and J Sampson, i actually heard about how Democrats were the “racist” ones while the Republicans weren’t. Abe Lincoln is another good example; a Republican, but against slavery. but i didn’t know that JFK really made that much of an impact with the Democratic Party. i kinda thought that it just slowly evaporated over the years. cool to know
The only truth politicians say is “good morning”
History lesson: The Republican and Democratic party’s of prey 1940’s was much different than the one we know today. After the civil war the Republican party was the party of the north and was pushing more civil rights based issues (but yes there were racist and KKK members there too). The Democratic party ruled the south for some time (up until late 70’s early 80s). The main split happened in the 1930’s. The Republicans slowly retreated on many social issues, social rights,and pushed for the government to stay out of the way in the great depression. Then FDR came in, who was a “Northern Democrat” (big difference between Northern and Southern Democrats). He pushed for basic (at least at that time) civil rights, and the social safety nets of that are being destroyed today. At that time it wasn’t a conservative liberal split between the parties. you could be a conservative or liberal democrat or republican. FDR split the Democratic party in two. Those that supported social safety nets, and ways to attack other social issues. And the southern democrats that wanted no part of social programs. Many southern democrats were against Civil rights and so were many Republicans (who at that time were marginalized). Conservative democrats started to move towards the Republican party, and that move was complete with Reagan who created the modern day republican party. Many past republicans like Nixon, or Ike would be considered liberal by today’s standard. Heck Reagen looks liberal to some of these fools…and that’s the quick watered down version
@ Anonymous
I never said there weren’t racist members of both parties but they generally weren’t viewed very favorably amongst other Republicans. What I said is still true, so sorry but you’re wrong. Abraham Lincoln died in 1865 brah, there’s a million other reasons why the republican party is viewed that way.
@Matt
Yeah, haha that’s pretty much the last century in a nutshell.
J sampson, but u have to admit the modern day republicans and conservatives are NOT the same as the old republican party. The ideologies have completely switched over the decades which is why fox news, the bushes, dick cheney and the tea party exist today
You’re not familiar with the Tea Party thing? Really? And then you go on to general black people as if your familiar with them. Please stop talking.
You know exactly what the Tea Party is about.
@ Anonymous
Well the only thing that’s really changed is the fact that slavery isn’t the main issue anymore. The core principles are still there within the conservative movement. The Tea Party exists because the Republican party HAS changed. Bush and Cheney are far from conservative, as any true conservative will tell you. Bush was a lot more like Obama than a conservative. In fact, the Bush policies and the Obama policies are very similar. People really need to realize that it’s not about race anymore, it’s all about money. You think Jay-Z has problems with racism?
@ IDK Abe Lincoln’s reason for freeing slaves wasn’t entirely about slaves. His signing of the emancipation Proc. was a chess move because he needed help fighting the war.
Can someone give me some recommendations of underground artists whose names you’ve been dying to spread!
And when I say underground, I mean someone who doesn’t have a million plays on Last FM, could not reach the top 15 on the Itunes Hip Hop charts as of now, every one of their mixtapes wouldn’t get an automatic “feature” on Datpiff.com, and doesn’t have a cosign from Pitchfork.
Thanks to anyone who responds with recommendations…will be keeping check
Youtube’em….Tito Lopez..beast!…Ace Primo.(Wayne WHo?)…O-Solo…T-Rock(real King of the South) …….Reed Dollaz…..but Tito Lopez is crazy..His Kings Speech album droppin soon
vakill,planet asia,chino xl, cage, c rayz walz, aesop rock, atmosphere, sage francis,virtuoso, vast aire, vordul mega
@Gunn Starr I got 2 albums by Vakill and am prob gonna get “Armor of God”. The others you mentioned however don’t fit my criteria, Cannibal Ox are legends, along with Chino XL, Aesop Rock, Atmosphere, and Sage Francis. Cage is known from formerly being part of Def Jux and was featured on Kid Cudi’s last album.
@Brandon The187Worm Nixon I checked out most of those guys and they’re either not to active or they’re under 19. And I’m not really big on the south (they’re too far gone since No Limit, Cash Money, Crunk, Cash Money 2.0, Young Money,etc..).
And for everyone else, name me either a hyper dope artist, mixtape, or album that would go under most underground fans radars but you want people to check out.
Hopsin
Check out the artist on qn5.com. (Tonedeff, Cunninlynguists, Pack FM, Mr. SOS) If you go on their website you can listen to a handful of tracks with lyrics included.
Search for a dude named iMCompleX on youtube he got some hot shit! Check his dead presidents freestyle out, & the rest of his music WEST COAST ALL DAY!!

Beck and the Tea Party feed the herd of moronic, uneducated sheep. And when did rappers not speak on politics?? Mainstream America doesn’t know shit about hip-hop, especially since they’ve only paid attention in the last 5 or 10 years. Raps most political area had already passed once Biggy and Pac came around. And NONE of it was on the radio. AND just about all of it predicted our current status in America.
what an idiot…how can anyone take his political opinion seriously when he preaches violence? and don’t get it twisted, the democrats are using blacks for there personal gain. they don’t actually care about you. stop buying into this republicans are exclusively white. if you talked to a conservative you would find that there family/social values are paralleled by black and latino communities. blacks have the highest abortion rate and the lowest reproductive rates according to the latest census. we must pay attention or we are going to go extinct!
THANK YOU lol. I guess it’s our own fault for trying to argue politics on a hip hop site haha.
But who said republicans are exclusively white? we know about michael steele and alan keys. Crooked referenced michael steele in a song called 8-11 so he knows that. Quit assuming rappers think all republicans are all white smh
^^That’s completely beside the point, his comment must have went WAY over your head.
^^Just wanted to point that out and no his comment didnt go over my head. Hip hop is about expressiong how you feel whether or not news media agrees with u. Im not sure who u believe should be the rightful sole speakers on politics but really who gives a damn what the news media thinks when it comes to hip hop. Who cares what the actual so-called democrats and republicans think? u shouldnt.
Of course conservatives are not bad, just the zealous tea party members that he dissed
Republican Family “values”=Usurping the constitution in favor of a Christian theocracy.
Your main emphasis on politics is pretty much “okay (insert shit-kicking conservative) you can take away my Medicaid, job safety nets, coverage of any expenditures I need as an underpaid member of the workforce, privatize all schools, arbitration of land plots (bye bye apartment complex I live in and hello Wal Mart), abolish sanitation laws (I love lead in my potato chips), and make sure my 14 year old daughter can’t get an abortion incase she’s raped…just as long as I get to hang f*ggts en da NAME OF JEEEEE-ZUS-ZUS-ZUS”.
I’d rather have the government enforcing binding contracts with the democratic consent of the people to protect my rights from being infringed upon over bible thumpers and high echelon lobbyists righting legislation.
Them and big daddy kane after watching his story on unsung, he was really skilled.
FUCK, let’s all stop talking about politics and smoke some weed. Who’s with me?
If its a blunt, im not fucking with u. I roll papers!
im with you lets get high
he said it…if you’re 14, 15 years old you are an Odd Future fan. also, that album’s never coming out.
finally a decent article, this and throwback thursdays are good, keep the tabloid shit the fuck out of here. ya fuckin trippin hiphopdx you guys suck cock hourly, fuck ya
I would love if a rapper could come out and actually talk politics with some sense. Like a few months back when Nas (one of my favs.) was all talking “where bush at?” and trying to get all political. Dude…NO! Do not lower yourself to that level, you most likely do not know shit about politics. Whats worse is you have all these idiot fans who praise these half ass “political” rants.
Well I respect Crooked as a lyricist, Ive been listenin to him since Young Boss in high school, I was puttin people on to Crooked I since way back.
I was mistaken back in high school in what I believed to be truth, and I think Crooked is mistaken on matters of politics, history, and economy.
The source of the below information is NPR: http://www.wbur.org/npr/126613316.
Do you all know who were the people that put through the Income Tax Amendment (16th) into the Constitution right before World War I in 1913? They were liberal Progressive Democrats.
Do you know why they put it through?
Besides wanting to grow government (as liberal racist President Woodrow Wilson did after it was passed), the Democrats also wanted to ban alcohol. They were successful in 1919 via another Constitutional Amendment, (18th). At the time, the Federal government was dependant on tariffs to fund its operations. Imports of alcohol contributed to a very large portion of the tariffs collected. A ban of alcohol would be politically impossible, because it would take away a huge source of the Federal governments revenue: tariffs on alcohol imports. So the 16th Amendment cemented in place an Income Tax and solved this quagmire. So in 1919 the Democrats were able to put through the 18th Amendment to ban alcohol.
But do you know WHY the Democrats wanted to ban alcohol? It’s the same reason they wanted stricter gun laws. The liberal Progressive Democrats were viscious RACISTS and SEGREGATIONISTS. LOOK IT UP. They were AFRAID of black people drinking alcohol. The quintessential stereotype that the Democrats feared was a black man with a bottle of liquor in one hand and a voting ballot in the other. Because black people voted for Republicans, and that was a problem. Now if you can imagine their fear of a black man with liquor, imagine how scared they are if a black man had… gasp… a gun!
Racism is the origins of todays guns laws, drug laws, and even tax laws.
It’s funny because the same things are going on today. Whether it’s 2011 or 1920, what is the worse fear of a liberal Progressive today? It’s a black man exercising his 2nd Amendment right to hold a fire arm and using his right to vote for a Republican. Because if you are a black conservative, you are considered a traitor.
If you dont believe me ask Democrat Howard Dean. As he said in 2004, he is a big supporter of the 2nd Amendment, but (paraphrasing) unlike rural Vermont, he understands stricter guns laws need to be in place in cities like New York City. Ask yourself why. What might be different between rural Vermont versus New York City?
If you don’t believe me, go to the police state that today is called Philadelphia, PA. But leave your gun at home, because the cops do whats called “Stop and Frisk”. In other words they violate your Fourth Amendment rights and just search you for no reason, and than they seize your Second Amendment rights out of your pocket and haul you off to prison. And these great gun laws and police laws work SO WELL: this year the murder rate in Philly was higher in June, than all of 2010. Because you are not allowed to protect yourself, you gotta call the Democrat police unions to protect you at 911, hopefully they feel like comin out and helping you.
But its okay, maybe one day the people of Philly can get out of the bad neighboorhoods, by going to one of the GREAT government run public schools run by the liveral Democrat teachers unions. Dont you think the inner city schools are doing a GREAT job at helping the people of their communities get ahead and advance?
My man Crooked, keep voting for Democrats, because they have done a GREAT job the last 70+ years running LA, New York, Newark, Boston, Philly, Baltimore, the people there are so HAPPY with what they have done to those cities.
Did yall know a little more than 50% of the jobs created in the whole U.S. since 2009 were created in 49 states? So you might be wondering where were the other the other 50% of the jobs created?
Texas. So maybe if we want to put more money in the pockets of the masses and give people more jobs and more paychecks, we should see what the government in Texas is doing different.. Different from the FAILIRES of liberalism like… say Cali, New Jersey, New York, and all the other states that are BROKE as fuck!
Thank you for providing this insightful history lesson. You are speaking the truth. Well researched and stated, and your conclusions are valid. The policies and brainwashing of the Democrats have created a welfare state that relies on minority support. A handout always requires something back in exchange. Nothing is better than liberty and the Constitution. Do the research or get left 6 feet beneath dirt.
@DL thanks my man.
And for all of you that would like to know more about where Im comin from with my views, please go and read “Up From Slavery” by Booker T Washington. It is an AMAZING book.
Good looking out on the book suggestion. I will definitely peep that. I’d love to stay connected to you. I feel like you have a plethora of knowledge on this topic and I do similar research myself. Feel free to hit me on the email: dlbeatsrhymeslife@gmail.com or search DL musician/artist/band site on facebook. PEACE.
