  2. See…simple. Straight forward and real humble. Not some, “Well, since I am so amazing. I freestyle the whole album and record it in one night. Then go and sleep on it and its fire.”

  5. wait a minute…..Mario Winans did “Taxi Driver” WOW…didn’t expect that at all. Then again since Royce has done ghostwriting for diddy, it makes sense that he’d get some hitmen production.

  6. It’s interesting to hear about the writing process as a writer/poet/rapper myself, cos I place a lot of emphasis on lyricism. And it can work either way, you start off with a concept and make a beat to fit or you have a flow in mind. I guess it’s easier when you got the beat already. Some people write to instrumentals, it helps. Nevertheless I don’t think you should restrict yourself to a particular method, it’s kinda like thinking inside the box. Anyways, props for posting.

  10. Look, Royce is the king. And while I disagree with LOAX on Royce, I do support that he’s stating his opinion. Don’t attack the guy!

  11. royce used to be cocky… now he’s more down to earth. dude has def grown up. maybe b/c he see what a jerk buddens is or something. haha. maybe that explains why we see him without them big sunglasses!
    But he’s still killing it and is still kinda underrated like most them dudes from the D.
