  • So what’s an acclaimed artist to do when they no longer have anything to prove? In the case of hip-hop’s legendary Detroit lyricist Royce 5’9”, you shut out all of the hype that places you in the same esteemed company as such revered, game-changing emcees as Jay-Z, Ice Cube and Eminem and release your most potent, celebratory and brazenly honest album of your 20-plus-year-career. "Book of Ryan," the seventh solo studio project from the grinding rhyme visionary, is a work that defies well-worn, grizzled veteran rap clichés.

    It's been a long time since I've watched an interview and thought "These are really good questions". The host did a really good job, which enabled Royce to provide more in depth answers. This is what an interview should be.

      Tommie Boler exactly! And not a lot of eminem questions 👍👍

    Fantastic interview... I love it when they do their homework. Charlemagne didn’t even know Ryan was Royce’s real name and he’s interviewed him multiple times.

      Their collabs are the best... no one that collabs with eminem (except dre) can compete with Royce cause their chemistry is amazing , I’ll take Royce over 50 to be honest

  • @cmike7187
    @cmike7187 6 років тому +8

    Great interview. Very well done. Royce is one of the greatest lyricist of our time. This interviewer is very good. He deserves to interview a Jay Z or Eminem.

    @valerieblanks 6 років тому

    This is the level of research/knowledge that all Build interviewers should have. This interviewer did a great job and his knowledge of Royce, specifically, and hip hop, generally, allowed him to ask curated - not generic - questions which in turn allowed Royce to open up and give us the real. Good job

  • @curtskywalker7441
    @curtskywalker7441 5 років тому

    The reason why your favourite rappers never grow is cause you compare them to the rappers of the south they are not mumble rappers allow the south to do what their good at and allow your rappers or emcee to grow I've had enough of this segregation hiphop is hiphop end of story

  • @FatStaxofcash
    @FatStaxofcash 6 років тому

    Royce doesnt understand business on the Slaughterhouse situation and is at fault. Joe Budden is trying to do proper business, but Royce is putting his personal feelings for Eminem in the way for whats best for Slaughterhouse.

    • @devanrichter3454
      @devanrichter3454 6 років тому

      Oil Man but also the albums still not the done. Regardless about the business aspect it's an unfinished album.

    • @FatStaxofcash
      @FatStaxofcash 6 років тому

      @Devan Richter .. you just heard 1 or 2 interviews by Royce. The album is outdated now yes, but Joe isnt doing the "finishing touches" because the business isnt right and has to stand up against the bullshit. He is the reason Slaughterhouse album isnt out but he is not at fault for the break up he is trying to give us a lot more Slaughterhouse an in fact it would be his only music focus if they leave Shady.

    • @MrSmith-fl2jn
