A little over a year a go, KXNG CROOKED dropped off his highly political album Good Vs. Evil. Around the time that Donald Trump was elected, Crooked came through with an important statement that reflected the direction of America. Fast forward to 2017 and KXNG CROOKED has released the sequel project, Good Vs. Evil 2: The Red Empire, a project that reflects on everything that's occurred since Trump's inauguration.

KXNG CROOKED delivers a monstrous fourteen track project for Good Vs Evil 2. The rapper holds down the majority of the project himself and grabs only a few features that can stay at his standard on the project. He throws it back on the intro with a feature from Sway & King Tech for "Wake Up Show Intro." He also grabs Styles P, Royce Da 5'9", Emanny, Jay Townsend and Jai for other cuts off the project.

On the project, Crooked said, "Good Vs Evil 2 is just as necessary as part one. From the production to the content to the music sequencing to the artwork everything is designed to provoke thought. And the shit slaps too!”
