Joell Ortiz & KXNG Crooked - H.A.R.D.

 

[threattonature]

On first pass through I'm loving this shyt. Joell stepped it up and Crook was his usual consistent self.

 

[HiiiPower]

Heamakerz, Illmind & Justice League...

some of these were originally Slaughterhouse beats

 

[Juggalo Fred]

The erick sermon beat was sent to Royce for Bad meets evil 2 and royce accidently sent it to Crook and crook picked that beat out

 

[ILLMMORTAL]

Feeling the title track fasho, it’s self explanatory!

 

[bigdaddy88]

Dope except that trap track..outta place

 

[threattonature]

I love this shyt and hate that it ain't getting hyped. They killed this.

Them Star Wars bars by Joell was hard.

Who wanna bet I turn Jedi Knight and wave lights
Day and night like a red eye flight
Lay your princess in the sky like she Luke' partner
One hand solo out the window, here's something for you to Chewbacca

And that Crooked line was sick
Got them amphetamines from the bloods, that's red and meth.

yea, i cant believe this came out last wkend and no one talked about it. i thought they had more of a fanbase. production is alot stronger than i wouldve expected. i know joell is linked w/ most of these producers. he did a pretty good job.

 

[W.I.Z.E.]

This shyt is a real solid album. They compliment each other better than I would’ve expected.

nobody aint really on these dudes like that. and out of SH they were the two least known/popular. I think its best that SH disbanded though in a way...Joell has grown a lot and Crook now actually starting to put out decent projects. his Weekly series keeps him going and his joint with Bronze Nazareth was on point, now this.

Joell been releasing great music for almost 2 years now but it mostly goes unnoticed I am afraid. Monday, Mona Lisa, and Gorilla Glue were all 4 mic projects and you had the Box Talk EP. I hope there will be a Gorilla Glue 2 as planned and H.A.R.D. 2 would be nice too!

Crook is the most slept on.

You didn't like Young Boss 1 or 2 or the Westcoastanostra EP? All those were pre slaughterhouse and fire

didnt listen, will look them up. and I listened to a lot of Crook stuff, but most seemed to be mediocre, particularly in production. I listened to Apex Predator, Good vs Evil I and II, Statik Kxng, Psalms 82:6, Mr. Pigface Weapon Waist, and Block Obama II.

 

[Yecht]

Didn't even see this on the new releases on Spotify, had no idea it came out. They called them both on the JBP and talked it up on Saturday though so I'm a give it a go

Young boss 1 is a mixtape of recycled beats but some of crooks best verses are on here. And this is where Horseshoe Gang debuted. A random Young Zee guest appearance too

Young boss 2 and westcoastanostra are mostly original beats

gave this a few more spins. dope. hope they do more, especially since now we wont have anymore Gorilla Glue (last one to be released this year)
