Crook played “make me choose” with his followers, sharing some interesting takes on Eminem’s records.
Internet users would offer the Slaughterhouse MC the choice between two albums to pick one according to his preferences. It is an innocent game, and Crook has managed to keep it light-hearted. With all his knowledge and experience, KXNG Crooked knows the difference between facts and opinions and never tries to force his opinion on anybody.
However, it was interesting to see Crook’s little commentaries that he sometimes let alongside his choice.
For example, he values “Marshall Mathers LP” higher than “The Eminem Show”. Not because he claims that it is objectively and indisputably better, but because it is his personal preference:
For me personally it’s MMLP.. I have my reasons.. But I won’t debate if someone likes TES better

However, Crook picks “The Eminem Show” over “Relapse”:

The choice between the “Music to Be Murdered By” sides could have been trickier, but Crook’s reasoning was once again flawless. Crook is featured on “I Will” on Side A, and he’s quite proud of his verse there:
You’re asking someone who’s on Side A 🥴 I’m not in a non biased mood today

Sometimes, followers would offer their own opinion, and Crook would weigh in with tact and rationality. For example, when a follower said that they considered “Darkness” to be at least on the same level that Marshall’s legendary “Stan”, Crook pointed out the precision with which the song hit the mark:

Eminem’s catalogue was not the only one in question. The followers were interested in Crook’s opinion on Tupac’s and Beastie Boys’ albums, as well as Royce da 5’9’s records. Having been given a choice between the Grammy-nominated “The Allegory” and “Book of Ryan”, Crook firmly states Royce’s “Book of Ryan” as his favourite:
