Could we soon be calling the King of Crunk the King of Rock? We just might be, once Lil Jon gets done with his new record, Crunk Rock...
"I'mma take it back to the first Run-DMC [album]," Lil Jon said Wednesday afternoon from Los Angeles, "[when] n---as was like, 'I'm the King of Rock.' Not the King of Rap, the King of Rock. It was hard hip-hop beats, but hard guitars [too]. I'mma take [Crunk Rock] to that."
Jon said he recently did a joint with Trick Daddy called "Let's Go," which includes a sample of an Ozzy Osbourne song, and plans to include it on his new record. "Half the album is going to be like that," Jon said, "the other half is going to be like 'Get Low' and 'I Don't Give a F---' and 'What U Gon' Do.' It's going to be something new and go way further than any other thing I did on the last album. By me collaborating with cats in the studio, it's gonna come on some whole other sh--."
Jon's stay in L.A. is temporary
