Royce Da 5'9

[SCTwins]

I don't get it. Why isn't Royce at least as famous as Eminem..? Is it because he doesn't make commercial music? Too lyrical?



1A) Royce
1B) Lupe
2) Eminem
3) Nas
4) Black Thought
5)Rakim/Andre/Big L
100) Drake/Jay-z

Unlike 2-5 Royce has never failed on a track. This dude comes with 100% bars every single time and has out-rapped Eminem numerous times. Check out Above the Law, Fast Lane, Welcome 2 Hell.. 75% of the time Royce wins. Only white chicks and old people think Eminem is a better rapper.. Like come on..Really? Eminem is boring as fuck.. I don't know a single person that actually listens to his music more than once.

Be honest..how many times have you listened to Rap God?

Why isn't Royce at least top 5 on every list? This dude has dropped 10,000 more bars than Eminem and Jay-Z have total songs.

Royce's Bar Exam albums actually hold up over time. Go listen to Bar Exam 1 and tell me that shit is whack...Good luck though

On this site "Royce" represents one man, and one man only.

That's extra true in this case.

I know that's a joke but..

Do a rap song with Jennifer Lopez = deleted

Ja got murdered and humiliated on like 3 consecutive tracks after this.

But I can't lie we used to listen to Let's Ride while driving around smoking up back in the day. It still bumps lol

Royce da 5'9 has twice the longevity as Royce Gracie.

 

[Yoel Bromero]

Bc he's 5'9 and manlets don't deserve love. It he was Royce da 6'4 he'd be legit

 

[Tone C]

I liked him in the early UFCs

 

[HUGHPHUG]

1b Lupe? I don't get if that's a joke

You realize that you thinking Royce is the greatest rapper is purely your opinion and not one I have ever heard from anyone with any credibility in hip hop?

I stay out of hip hop discussions on Sherdog for exactly this reason

 

[BearGrounds]

I like the dude, he's nice but he's not in my top 5.

Don't expect to be taken seriously when you say things like, "Eminem is boring as fuck". He's objectively not. The freestyle I linked above alone shows that statement to be complete nonsense.

Royce probably didn't make it because he doesn't really have that it factor that makes entertainers blow. It's just like MMA, in that the popular rappers aren't necessarily the "best" (although they certainly can be).

 

[bowened]

Thought this was going to be a thread exposing Royce Gracie as a manlet.

 

[minute bull]

He's not marketable. For God's sake there's a handicap right there in his name right off the bat.

Popularity doesn't come from talent; it's mostly timing, really.

 

[Lights Out 101]

I’m a Will Smith fan myself.

In all seriousness, I saw Royce open for Eminem earlier this year and he was trash. Seemed like he had zero motivation or intensity. I do like some of his recorded tracks though.

You'd think so, but we are in the era of the likes of XXXTentacion, 6ix9ine and Megan Thee Stallion so maybe not.

Still a better name than Joey Bada$$ tho

2inchez is not fire, mayne!!

Probably because his music is boring to the mainstream. Eminem does music that appeals to the masses.

 

[RetiredSlave]

Whats the criteria?

 

[Uber_Noober]

Honestly never heard of him, 5’9 sounds like a manlet
