{VIDEO} EA-Ski Feat Locksmith "I.M.G.M.I."

[Townbizz23]

^^^On Crooked's 52 Hip Hop Weekly song thing every single song song was saying the same shit. "Eastside LBC I pop guns I'm a thug" shit like that. Obviously the shit was dumbass clever and well put together, but the content was lacking IMO. Same with "Block Obama." I ain't slighting him or nothing, I just think Lock can't be compared to anyone.

True, but Lock also didn't leake verses every week, for one year straight like Crook has done. Lock also doesn't drop mixtapes. Mixtapes arent usually packed with content but rather focus on lyrical ability/wordplay/rhyme schemes/metaphors. Which is what Crook focused on.

Lock's been a ghost for the past 5 years, so of course if you take the few verses that he's laid on actual albums verses thousands of Crook's freestyled verses, it may seem as if Crook raps about 'the same shit' in comparison. But look back to Lock's freestyle/battle career (KMEL, MTV), and the content was mainly: penises, vaginas, faggots, etc etc.

Anyways, didn't mean to get off topic. That Locksmith verse is vicious! Can't wait for his solo, and the new Frontline album!

Haha you right Lock really has been ghost for hella long. I'm positive that Crook can rap about anything he wants and have the same lyrical potency. Just what I've heard from hear is the same ole' shit. I guess it's because I fucks with all his mixtapes. I still don't see cats fucking with Locksmith.

^^ I do admit Crook raps about gangbanging a lot. And that does get a bit annoying. But yea, its mixtape shit, so I'll have to judge when/if his album ever drops. Both are VERY talented. And BOTH need to drop an album already! lol.

[yayareaslapz]

damn video was dope. a locksmith solo cd produced entirely by ski is pretty overdue if you ask me.

 

[Stylo]

BEST SHIT OUT OF THE BAY IN A LONG TIME... ALL YOU RAP NIGGAS TAKE NOTES AND STEP YOUR GAME UP

 

[Infantry Elite]

lock is still a beast


cant wait for the IMG releases

 

[deejonaze]

nice video. Locksmith needs to come out with a solo.

 

[mrkmaidog]

about damn time E-A-SKI the greatest bay producer jumps back with some fire production that caught my attention!! all you producers take notes from the legend, and step your production game up. we need that damn apply pressure!!! that cd probably wont drop til detox drops.

 

[Jru]

His flow was ridiculous...........
what a dope duo

 

[caff]

props to locksmith, that verse was sick.......
beat was fire...........

mob shit > hyphy

 

[dzellian]

DOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOPE SHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIT.

This is why the Frontline (Locksmith and Left) are the truth. They made a shit load of radio and club bangers and still can do it like this. Locksmith's solo album is going to be Ill as fuck. He has the ability to do it whatever way it needs to be done. EA-Ski is a legend period point blank. He is (to my knowledge) the only Bay cat to fuck with Dre. I hope that for 2009 Locksmith (solo) LEFT, EA-Ski and a Frontline as a group drops. I was listening to their last album in my iPod today after hearing that verse and that shit was pure fire. They have what it takes to not only make it on commercial radio and T.V. they also can do it on a mixtape level. Their whole camp always comes with real respectable, quality product. Locksmith great fucking job...Maybe this year (since hyphy is dead) the Frontline will be able to be seen as the beast that they are and Locksmith's solo would be a great start.

The have dropped 3 albums in the last five years...well 2 and a half cuz they re-released "who r u" as "Now U Know" but I know what u mean, they dont drop a ton of shit. They just focus on making one album every few years.
