Audio. Crooklyn Wins Again

Audio. Crooklyn Wins Again: It's all about instrumental suspense. Dork took a quick office poll and determined that the intros to Crooklyn 1, 2 & 3 have been full of anticipation and excitement. All of them caught us in the rapture. From the first sound we knew it was on - whether it was a horn, or Guru's signature voice saying, "Never taking shorts because Brooklyn's the borough!"

Crooklyn wins again with this third installment. The song features Mos Def, Jean Grae & Memphis Bleek. I know, many of you are wondering about Memphis, but he holds his own. We always thought Memphis was a sufficient lyricist, it was his substance that brought him down. No one believed a word he said. It just wasn't credible. However, on this track for some reason his flow and energy works. It sounds nice with the likes of Mos and Jean. Definitely check it out.
