SOHH got a chance to chat with Slaughterhouse member Crooked I and he shared his opinions about music leaks and what can be done to try and be more secure.
“I don’t feel more secure because there’s been some leaks anyway,” Crooked told SOHH when asked about recording music in-house as opposed to sending tracks via e-mail. “There’s some people where that’s just what they do and don’t realize they’re hurting the artist by not realizing this song right here could be very dear to an artist and he can’t wait to put it on an album and give it to the people. But then when they leak it, the artist can no longer use it. Now the artist has a choice. He can use it or not. A lot of times you don’t use songs that people hacked into your computer and leaked unfinished versions of. Sometimes you do. But with that shit right there, I never feel secure. We are doing a lot of different [safety precautions] to try to protect the music from it all just leaking because we put our hearts and souls into this shit. So we’re trying to bring the best quality of music to the people.”
“I remember when I produced a couple songs on Tupac’s [2001] album, Until the End of Time and I remember we had an armed guard at the door,” Crooked added. “So wasn’t nobody getting in and out with none of that music. Now you got engineers and shit that are being sneaky, recording on the down low trying to get it on another flash drive or burn little CDs and shit to get out of there with the music. Back then, dudes with pistols was watching all of that. So we might have to go back to that.”
A couple of days ago, while Game was travelling to Canada to do some concerts, he was arrested and detained which could have been up to 14 days. He was then spotted at Lil Wayne’s concert last night, hinting he is a free man, so Flex got Game on the phone to talk about the whole situation.
