Is Crooked I Lost?

If you follow West Coast rap at all, you’ve heard of Crooked I and his Hip Hop Weekly series. For the last year, Crooked I has been releasing freestyles over industry beats. If you haven’t heard any of these, I highly recommend you clear a couple of hours and head over to the DubCnn Hip [...]
