CROOKED I (+ SLAUGHTERHOUSE & YELAWOLF) SIGNED TO SHADY RECORDS

I was going to post this new Game track with Ross but it started with Khaled yelling and I turned it off.  Besides seeing an emcee like Crooked I get signed to Shady is bigger deal than a former Aftermath artist pleading any way he can to get back on the label and try to bring back 2005 because he can't...well nevermind.  This is pretty much the cover for the new issue.  Interested to see what happens next.
