KXNG Crooked: Funk Volume Wasn't Ready for Horseshoe Gang Battle 

People need to understand it was a battle not beef.

Crooked I sounding like a concerned dad talking about how soft children's baseball games are

Translation: We didn't have the money so we set it off anyways.

Hopsin was garbage in their diss... Benton and Dizzy held their own though.

Half A Meal was hella dope.

Guy on the right blending in with the background

Look at Crook actin like he ain't heard that Dizzy Wright verse hahaha!

What I love is that both sides did it for the competition-the love of the culture. They don't REALLY hate each other-they kept it lyrical. This wasn't meant to turn into worldstar death threats. Both sides respect each other. You CANNOT ask for a much prouder moment.

yall lost crooked, they didn't need a second diss. you ain't drake babyyyyyy.

4:00 their smirks in the back 😂

My dude in the back is funny af just noddin his head the whole time

Regardless y'all should respect Horseshoe Gang for the content they put out. Start with mixtape monthly 1 and try to get a personal feel. If you really listen to HSG, and set aside any opinions formed off of the fv beef. You'll see those cats are unlike anything out there in the industry. The definition of a rap flow

FV technically cant come close to crooked or hsg, but they still dope

whens the battle gonna drop??

I don't know what you guys were listening to but the FV diss was corny as fuck

Vlad,please do more Crooked interviews. The guy is a rap legend and very knowledgable.

why is vlad not making a video with fv ?

I like how Crooked never took anything personal, and he simply said its how hip hop is. Beefs. Feuds. Even saying he has respect and likes FV. Respect right there.

I'm still waiting on the bg knocc out interview

Did I catch a little word on the Mos - Lupe shit at 6:05 ? lol

Didnt hear of Hopsin until he announced "retirement" then i got hooked on his "Ill Mind Tracks" & didnt hear of Horseshoe Gang til Funk Vol offered the challenge. Smart marketing move bc now I love both. Glad it happened bc now I listen to both. Wish disses kept going.

why does were shirts that say chica

I respect both groups and they both have hella bars.

fv vs hsg more entertaining then drake vs meek mill

It's 4? I honestly thought it was like two of them. Their voices sounded similar on Half A Meal.

A live rap battle would be too dope

LOL this looked like Arsenal from the thumbnail

The Same Day was nice but FVs Free Meal had the somethin to pushov the top idk

IDK Dizzy hopsin jarren benton vs HSG its a close call all are amazing

so who won the money ?

they aint reply to daylyt though lol

The second diss they put out was killer lol "same day"

Much respect to king crooked, would have been good for it to go further. But a FV and slaughter house, horsehoe gang collab or something would be awesome. going to the actual songs, both songs were good, both punchlines and metaphors. both did good. But you can't call out a winner on either side, I've been following Fv a while and I love slaughter house, i don't know much about horseshoe gang but idk both did dope songs :D

I feel horseshoe gang didint have disses in The same way. Fuck volume had more disses, but horseshoe gang had more barrs.. .

Shout out to Crook an tha gang keep it pushin!! Crooked we need that Slaughterhouse album an your mixtape ASAP

swizzz woulda definitely done better than hop

Aye RS to keep it 100 Hopsin has ALWAYS said Crooked I was one of his favorite MC's so thats not anything new.

Hopsin arguably a better rapper....but fv didn't realize that they were thugin.....i think fv was more about rapping and horseshoe was willing to rhug

of COURSE Hopsin would be the one to immediately back out of the battle. "I fell in love with hip hop because of the battling and aggressive rap styles and @HORSESHOEGANG is definitely keeping it alive" "Shout out to @CrookedIntriago too for keeping this shit alive. Him, Eminem and big L are definitely the dopest MCs." "Ps. We still murdered horseshit gang" Fuck outta here...

Crooked is on a track with dizzy wright yet he dont know him ? dammm

I respect both KXNG Crooked and Hopsin as emcees, so this is a battle I'll choose to remain neutral on. I listened to both tracks rendered from both crews and I can't choose one over the other. But hats off to both for actually being lyrical and creative in their approach, it reminds us all of what really matters in hip hop and that's lyricism and delivery overall.

They got this nigga Crooked sitting like he an OG in the front.

too bad all that lyrical technicality can't help a rapper make a song... and honestly more people know FV over horse shoe gang... all the bars don't mean shit if they aren't put in the right place

People really took that "popularity" reference from Hopsin too far. FV don't care about the money/music views either. It was just ammo for the battle. Them dudes don't flaunt anything-they keep it lyrical.

no bias here but dizzy wright's verse alone wrote off HSG

its funny how they don't address the fact that dizzy and jarren smashed horseshoe

I don't think it was a "white flag" thing. I think it was a "it's escaped its point" thing.

Faster tracks doesn’t mean better quality. FV was monumental. Especially Dizzy’s Wright verse.

Why does this look like a mixture of a United Nations meeting and a temptations album cover

Maybe if you sat down with the guys from funk volume and hashed it out instead of trading shots on diss tracks, I’d actually respect you guys a little.

they get credited and then he shades it down smh

We are talking about the skillfulness of the art of Emceeing people... Bar for bar, the intricacy of the flows and schemes and the figurative wordplay, Horseshoe Gang was obviously more proficient, people are just going to be biased, and it also comes down to personal preference, but Amy established battle rapper will tell you Horseshoe gang definitely went harder in THOSE previously mentioned aspects mentioned above, people become emotionally attached to artist whether conciously or not and they just cant admit when the artist they love and respect take a loss, I love FV, hopsin was my favorite for a bit when I heard raw for the first time, I recently heard of Horseshoe gang last year and become a fan, speaking in a totally unbiased manner, HSG beat FV, if you wanna speak on who has put out better songs you could arguably say Fv has, and I would agree in that aspect.

Freeze this at 5:56 . The guy in the read shirt is lake DAMN !! Fridays !!

Living legends Right here. sutt x2

I loved both HSG and FV before this whole "beef" shit but FV appeals to a larger audience in my opinion.

they talk about having intricate complex bars, yet these dudes' chorus on the FV diss was "fuck volume'... super complex bro.. I couldnt have thought of that one..

Looking at these comments, man were the fans in their emotions then. I was in the comment sections too. I just thought it was good for the culture.

Is funk volume still around I already knew crooked and his brothers had the victory in the bag Hopsin cool but I always ride to crooked

I'd like to see horseshoe gang vs tech nines strange music choppers

I like both sides (groups)

Hopsin had good sportsmanship tho!

As a funk volume fan, i have no hate towards these guys. They were doing the same as FV so no disrespect.

COB is insane! So was funk V tho

It was close but FV got them. They were much more personal. HSG was more lyrical but basically no personals.

lol i see people saying hsg had no personals.... lmao hold on read this. "I mean hopsin getting dropped by these RUTHLESS RECORDS we JERRY HELLER and EAZY" It was personal clever, and a double entendre.. prolly could be a triple but what i caught was *Hopsin getting dropped by these ruthless records:refferring to the two brutal diss songs that he and his crew took L's from *and Hop was signed to ruthless records which was made by Jerry Heller and Eazy E, which he had some issues with and ended up leaving.. thats was just one of the many crazy ass lines... like come on be fair... hsg had some dope lines... no pun intended.

Crooked I said some real stuff bro! them boys on a come up, Hopsin ain't never been on that money tip.

Hopsin verse was raw " how does feel to be never on a tour bus" he was clowning

yall want to hear real bars search "Steve I's fire squad freestyle" a must if you love lyrics and flow !!

5 brothers with undeniable lyrical skill!!!

Yet yall hardly stayed on point. I thought yall would do better

3:27

The tweet from Hopsin shows who really won basically raising the white flag people really sleeping on same day to alot of the bars on that track are nasty especially Kenny

but same day was weak bro

if crooked says they are cool than it must be so

Funk Volume gave mercy. I also think that shit would've went a whole other direction with SwizZz. I love the diss but they went weak as fuck

HSG won with better bars, but FV won with better music, id call it a tie. But if i had to give it to anyone it would be HSG for putting out more and FV ending the battle.

horseshoe gang got roasted af

saids the ones trying to kill for 1 mill that they didn't have ready

all of a sudden no money? lol

that was a great battle .. i thought dizzy went the hardest . i dont care who won. they both dropped bomb

Those tweet's clearly tell who the clear winners are.

This is what I'm talking about funk volume definitely ate the views up and have more money, they made a point that horseshoe gang were better than them but have no money and are in their late 30's to early 40's, but horseshoe gang can definitely eat them up in bars they can literally "go off the top of the head or they can just start chopin your head" I'm mad cause hopsin is my favorite rapper and is now talkin money but I understand he was trying to make a point but it's just not cool horseshoe gang and crook murdered them

Hopsin made a point that horseshoe gang are amateurs because they are in their 30-40 and can't get their money up and they are the most intellectual rappers bar for bar I've ever heard like wow punch lines in all were awesome but yeah hopsin got the most views so he won which is crazy I think horseshoe gang won bar for bar

Damn I'm watchin this shit stoned right now and I just realized, this is kinda like the show Bring It, dance show I watch with my wife, the bitches come hard at each other and then go on camera and talk about it. It's kinda corny lol.

what if crooked eye wrote all there bars

FV still won. They lyrically destroyed HSG. That first diss that HSG put out sounded like a diss track that they've had on the shelves for years. Then they put out a track called "same day" after crooked clearly said they get technical when they make music. You may be better bar for bar, but that don't mean shit when FV ate you up lyrically. Watch FV comeback unexpectedly, you won't see HSG come back that same day

anyone actually able to name every member of horshoe gang, or any? thought not. they had the chance to make a name for emselves but they still irrelevant, sucks i thought this would be their come up

This presentation is how it should be done when it comes to cliques, gangs, crews, squads, etc. Imagine if they all looked focused and had suits on. Classy.

I got love for all the Mc's involved, FV, HSG, and Crooked alike. But I gotta say that Horshoe Gang sounds waaayyyy too similar to Kxng Crooked, honestly. I understand that they're family but they totally bit his style.

HSG won and I agree with crooked, I wanted to see FV clap back and go back and forth because i know HSG had ammo stored for a war

Same day made HG game loose , it wasn't that great

bruh funk volume straight murdered horseshoe gang honestly.

I'm sorry but horseshoe gang lost IMO. Especially the fact they don't even got half the money to even battle.. Fuck a diss song. THEY WANT A BATTLE!

thought hospins diss was sweet but just my opinion i guess

any 1 of hsg would kill all of funk volume at the same time

FV killed these dude !! They didn't have to make another song !!

Quality over quantity

Honestly happy meal is better than their first track, the second one from horseshoe was shit...

Crooked is acting like they dropped a either or hit em up lol. FV did them a favor by responding to them. Look at their video views before and than look at the views on the diss tracks. If Crook was really behind his bros he would of put up the Half A "Mill"
