At this point in his career I'll watch any interview that royce 59 does. Very in tune with the legend of hip hop
Facts
🗣️🗣️🗣️
I watched all his new media shit before I even listened to the album lol. He did all the west coast radio spots, he did No Jumper, he even did 2 or 3 smaller podcasts for multiple hours, I agree anything he does I'm with it lol.
Thank you sway this is probably the first interview I ever watched with royce and no one brought up Eminem
the batman he’s the only interviewer who has no need to use Royce for that lol
Em was brought up once
18:13
@@TimLaneMusic yeah but they didn't have a conversation about eminem they mentioned him for a second and moved on
They r on ems station no need they both family
“One track sliced without swords. I buried the Christ corpse in my past life, like the black knight that mounted the white horse” -Royce 1999
Gursimran Singh Bakshi Bad Meets Evil, on the Slim Shady LP.
Dominic Yoya Kabinga that was my intro to Royce he’s been so ill from the get go! G.O.A.T. For sure
Benjamin Lander same for me. Ever since I heard that song I always wondered what happened to Royce until the Bad Meets Evil joint.
the line that started it all
Yo, that was my intro to the GOAT Nickel Nine, too. You commented my fave bars from him in that song. Along with
When I'm in danger, it's funny/Actually, my flavor is similar to a waiter's/Because I'll serve any stranger with money/
Royce is on top of his game right now,The Allegory is a masterpiece. Top 5 lyrically no doubt
Top 2. Him and Em FOR ME. Benny the butcher in there too
Incog Negro black thought ahead of all those guys
@@willt5195 I'm just glad people still have these names in the convo,Thought is a beast.
@@willt5195 that's YOUR opinion. I disagree 100%
Black thought is certainly a lyricist, he also brings it everytime with his freestyles and capitalizes, heard multiple straight masterpieces by him, very captivating. However, I feel the same about Royce and then some, he just appeals more to me as an artist. This is all subjective man, convos about hip hop will never run out of fuel, but respect to both.
Good to see Lupe as the first rapper that came to mind when Royce was dropping who would be able to compete with him lyrically.
I don't think they'd fit well in a song together.
Lupe has more depth than Royce.
But Royce has more delivery patterns.
With the craftsmanship, Lupe uses words.
Royce uses sentences.
Nas Been Dropping Gems Back When Royce Was Rocking Rhinestone Durags.... I Mean Listen To "New World" Even Off Of His Supposed Weakest Album "Nastradamus" Gems Were Dropped....
And recently Royce destroyed Lupe with Silence of the Lambda
Royce on a crazy promo run lol... Hoping this was one of them!
Same here.
It's a pity slaughterhouse didnt do this.
what do you mean, hope this was one of what?
@@darkskinwhite One of the interviews he was gonna stop by and do..
@@AnthonyfromtheD oh, I got you. Yeah, I was waitin for him to be on Sway too. I wonder if he's gonna do the east coast spots or not.
"Whoever Superman I got kryptonite in these hands, but I rather soup a man, leave em liquefied with these cans" -off the track "Thou shall"
Edit: My favorite track on the album is "Pendulum" he's basically talking about the state of rap and how it's effecting our younger generation
💯
Should of had crook on thou shall instead of kid vishis smh
Tyler Carney kid Vishis is dope, his verse was great
that song is hardly about rap its moreso (like a lot of the album) about the relationship between black americans and rich white americans. even further than that it's about the rich but through the example of rich vs. poor & the setting for the example happens to be the music industry.
@@darkskinwhite if that's how u see it cool, but don't discredit my opinion cus u don't agree, its not under one person's interpretation
Royce Da 5'9" is so underrated and he's so humble! He deserves more props and recognition.
I’ve listened to “The Allegory” at least 10xs since it’s release and each time I hear something that I didn’t hear on the previous listen. DOPE. God MC.
Tunz 1531 im finding that out too. I love albums like this.
MzGeminiNightowl fa sho. Coincidence or not I’m listening to it as I reply to your comment!!!
Tunz 1531 I was too at work lol
Royce is everywhere right now. 2 interviews droppin everyday lately.
The album was somethin else man, Royces pen getting better and better and the production? Royce became an amazing producer, he's improving so quickly it's crazy.
I'm glad that Royce is being recognized more without being tied to Em so the interviewers get more views.
Royce stepped his game up with this album. Still gotta listened more to catch everything but heard some of his best beats on this one and its all produced by him. Respect!
The fact that you just started doing beats and did a project with it, is just inspiring!!!! I love it when emcees continue picking up other skills and passions
Good to see an interview that’s not dominated by Em questions
Sway don't care about Eminem and Royce's relationship as much as other people given Sways actually friends with both of them.
@Leon Jones what a clown
This is Shade 45 this is Em's platform lmfao🤣🤣Sway works for Em... Lol... Stop playing... ROYCE THA GOAT TBE NICKEL 9 THA GOAT
Royce is a beast. Been following him since the rhinestone era...
Shade 45 😂😂I’m so glad he stopped that
I heard that on the album also. What’s the Rhinestone Durga about?
@@AliFamilyEnt it was just his swag when he coming up. Google some pics. Eminem kinda mentions this in his diss in Armageddon pt 3 I think.. He says something like "rhinestones are so nice, they shine so bright after a hit of ecstasy ain't that right Royc.. Wait a minute I'm rambling" back when Royce was dissin D12.
Banging this in southern CALI since it dropped been playing it the whole way from top 2 bottom is a perfect body of work 4 me i get new gems with every listen feats are perfect..best album of the year so far put down the em and wayne album 4 now this right here is grown man stuff thank u i needed this album in my life right now...
One of my favorites. Nickle is on a roll since the PRhyme's album. I mean, the Layers album. Wow. And then, Book of Ryan. I mean the guy is a genius.
One of the most slept on/best kept secret is his Death is Certain album. Go listen to that. What a wordsmith.
This Is Boone No lie! Man Death Is Certain to me was his best album until Book Of Ryan hit. Death Is Certain is an underrated classic!
@@GlobalEnigma64 yes indeed. What's your favorite song on that album?
This Is Boone For me it’s a strong tie between “Beef” & “Regardless”
“Gangsta” is very tough too. What was your faves on that album?
@@GlobalEnigma64 Great choice. I love that songs.
For me it's Throwback. That's my jam right here. Also love I Promise and Death is Certain Part II. Two really dark songs.
This Is Boone DIC PT.2 is another one! I swear you’re the only one besides myself who gives that album praise. In my opinion that album is Royce’s “iLLmatic”
Love the Lupe shout out lol
i see hw Blackthought name being on the "Mentions" of top Mcees..That was rare and almost impossible 5 years back,i guess pple were sleepin on him and now he doesnt even need to say a word abt his Lyrical ability bt he lets others do that for HIM,Scary!
Damn I didn't know that about the ice cream man lol. No ice cream man be in my neighborhood. Royce so underrated for real he in my top ten. I want to see a whole album with Royce and Skyzoo.
He in my top 3, only Em and Crooked aren't under him imo
Wow the history of that song brings a whole new meaning to chain hang low by Jibbs 🧐
Damn that's too deep lol smh
BEST álbum so far!👊🏽🔥
Man, I been following Royce since I first heard him on GTA 3.....his progress and development is inspiring. Proud of this guy
🤣🤣🤣 it's not ice-creams fault! 🤣🤣🤣
313 Stand up!
The fact that Royce produced the songs make his crazy flow even better. The bears and bars match perfectly
Agreed he is amazing with his new joint when I heard he had a new album coming I was instantly hyped. Respect for Royce
I'm a NY cat. But I always fucks with Royce Da' 5'9... Dude is grounded as a solid lyricist... Highly intelligent. Positive dude and he's from Detroit and if you don't know Detroit don't sleep on the D. Respect on the new project my brother. Keep bringing the slaughter. Peace
So much growth the brother 5'9. Congratulations on your success!
Royce been putting out the REAL Rap Album of the year since The Book of Ryan. This dude NEEDS to be recognized as a genius of this generation.
So much respect for this man! Wish I had the chance to meet and chat with Royce in person I could gain so much.
Greatest intro ever!!! And I learned the Ice cream truck song is racist
I never knew that until now. Salute to Royce da 5'9

Stop looking at my dog still a banger 🔥
And every bar exam mixtape. Street hop his best album!!
Facts Royce has to tour Book of Ryan and Allegory!
I love people who produce art that gets a conversation going and creates a positive change in this world God Bless Royce Da 5’9”.
Royce album is pure inspiration and fire for true hip-hop heads. Great album!
The Allegory number one album of the year so far, followed by Jay Electronica's debut and RTJ4. Hip hop is in such a wondderful place rn very polar opposite to the state of america lol
I can’t stand when people underestimate how hard he hit Fury, and the god damn man got up.. not only got up but he dominated Wilder after. The 2nd fight was over the second they signed on the line. It’s boxing, not a KO machine. Fury can outbox the best of’em
I got the album over the weekend and I have been playing since. What a body of work. FIRE!!!!Thank you, Royce. You have never disappointed. This is amazing. Thank God for the Gift
I love getting insight in to albums as sick and well done as the Allegory. So much fire on that album. So much knowledge. A dash of crazy. So dope. #DetroitRepresent
Royce is dope. I love that he isn’t trying to only work with people that are big names. Not waiting for the collaborator to be “big/valuable” is something that I respect majorly ✊🏿. I wish more artist would do that.
6:30 that shit crazy knowing that the ice cream song has a crazy back story...
Right! Everything has a back story. I think we need to be more curious to find out about it
"The more you know." haha
Damn, i had no idea man. I thought it was just written to be somethin, that catches your attention(as a kid). That's crazy, anyone know if they're were lyrics to it?
It’s bad, it’s really bad
@D DLedge prove it
@@ebowden46 He's right. The song wasn't orginally racist. But, someone remade the song in the early 1900s being super racist and it became popular. But it was orginally Ireland type nursery rhyme.
I Play Forever is cold
I really appreciate hearing his feedback at the very beginning of the interview about the album being so disjointed. I've felt that way after listening to it and wondered why, at this point in his career, he could release something like that after coming off an incredibly cohesive Book of Ryan. Turns out, it was intentional. Which further bolsters his place in hip-hop.
I learnt that from this album Royce has been teaching me things right from the first song I heard from him that's why I think of him as a G.O.A.T 🙏
thank you Royce da 5'9 for bringing your knowledge through your art to the people, I appreciate you very much.
Royce 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Who tf comes to a video just to dislike it!
Anthony L haters yo
@@TxxT33 stole my reply lol 100 precent facts
Maybe they watched it and didn’t like the content. I don’t know who ur talking about but I find it crazy that people label someone a hater when simply they dont like what you like

@@honkeykong9592 🤣🤣🤣
Incredible album with maximum knowledge
😲 Oh SHIT that changed my whole perspective if I would've known that we just would went to the store.. DAMN! Thanks Royce
Royce show em them 🐐 ring.....
Coz you're 1 of them great...
SALUTE..... SALUTE....SALUTE...SALUTE..
ROYCE 2020
Sway interview are authentic
His work ethic sounds like Dre. Amazing that they couldn't see eye to eye.
I swear to god, when I heard the first track I got chills.
After Em, he is my favorite rapper of all time! That album is fuckin' dope! Why people don't talk about him when they speak on the best rappers of all time? I mean why??
Because unfortunately, whenever someone brings up Royce, Em gets brought into it. Like word association. Peanut butter and jelly. Em and Royce. Em's shadow is so large that anybody who works with him is seen as a worthy emcee, but never "as good" and certainly not better. Royce is stuck in that shadow, even though the logical conclusion is that he is one of the best. Em is #1 so why talk about #2 right?
@@DictatorSith Em number 1? Did Black thought die???
@@goatsquadtv8786 Bruh, take a nap with that shit. Ain't nobody here to debate Em and Thought. In the context of what the fuck I wrote, yeah Em is #1. That's only in comparison to Royce though, because that's who was being talked about. However, if your reading comprehension was up to par, you'd also have noticed the sarcastic tone I was using. I begrudgingly put Em over Royce, because that IS popular opinion. What was the question? Why doesn't Royce get brought into the conversation when talking about the greatest? I answered, not with my opinions, but with the popular opinions, because the question doesn't apply to me. I put Royce in my top 10. Now, as far as Em and Thought, Yah Yah is the best example of how delusional that is. Yeah, Thought got bars, dope cadence's and schemes, but the verse that follows it up, doesn't really leave any room for debate.
His first “hit” boom was respected underground. Unfortunately the mainstream wasn’t that responsive to that sound. They wanted more boastful bragidocios sounds. That label closed I think and he went more independent route and without big label money and connections to get radio play back then you didn’t have a shot in the dark to get music on the radio. He here now tho. I remember his first website where you could email questions to him and I asked him what blade icewood was like in the Stu. 😂 I didn’t get an answer.
He speaks straight facts all through the album
Royce speaks his truth everytime
Ppl trippin on the anti vax line Tho on Tricked!... Honestly I'm not trippin about it Tho.
enlightened by the words of royce
Linwood, Puritan 6 Mile stand up!
the entire album is 🔥💯💣
Royce's press run/promo for this album as been impeccable! That man Putting in that work!!
Royce your amazing x
Classic Album
KING!!!
Most underrated
Royce is the GOAT
Best album out this year
such a short interview, damn you sway
I always loved royce but he' blown my mind right now! much love 5'9
Really need someone to ask him about those anti-vax bars
Definitely. I'm autistic and would love to know if he genuinely thinks that vaccines cause autism or whether he's playing a character maybe or something.
Autistic is not broken, diseased or injured.
@@AutisticLed Correct. It shouldn't even be classed as a disorder or disability - at least in high-functioning cases.
If I had to choose I rather my kids get autism than any of the diseases vaccines protect you from.
One of his sons has autism and he 100% believes it was from the vaccines cause he was one way and chaged after a certain one after he got a personality to se it taken away some of the companies that make them doo have different ingredients then the other and it just might be a bad batch like with drugs I'm still I'm the fence with it cause my 5 year old now has add but last year we took him to a specialist and they said hes smart and normal but when he got his vaccine for school they said hes allover the place
@@nickcaputo5385 everyone's case is different but I think people are less patient today. Teacher just want to say something is wrong with your kid. ADD and ADHD is hereditary my husband has it he just never knew. Both of my kids have it and they are doing great. I think that we need to stop making these disorders taboo or bad. As to the autism study shows that the symptoms start to show when they are toddlers so people make the connection that it's the vaccines.
Yeah his voice does sound different in some songs. I like it though it’s like remixing a recipe and it still comes out 🔥
My favorite artist out the (313)
Staaaawp playin! This Chico Bean 🤭
Nah I love Royce, definitely one of the greatest lyricists that we have 💯 for sure
ROYCE
THE PROJECT IS PHENOMENAL!!!! 👏🏾👏🏾STANDING OVATION 👏🏾👏🏾!!!! This WILL stand the test of TIME!!!! MIND BLOWING!!!
Respect Royce!
Royce dropped one of the best and most meaningful albums since Kendrick drop damn. 💯🎧💉
Now I have three lps to put together for him. Layers, Allegory, Book of Ryan, they all fit beautifully together
Salute to Royce.
Album is pure 🔥 #313 "We Da Best" What up Doe!
Album of year
I just want to say is that Royce new album is already a classic in my book. I been a fan of him since his slim shady LP verse on bad meets evil. Ever since, he got me. This album is definitely a work of art that's going to last. Get them masters! Royce is bringing back lyrics, which is considered to be a true wordsmith (MC).
Fucking.... CLASSIC!
In regards to the ice cream truck jingle fact: I haven't listened to the album yet so idk if Royce addresses this or not but do we know for sure for sure that whoever first decided to make that their ice cream truck jingle was racist and that's the reason why the person made it their jingle? Bc that tune is way older than 1916 and not only used for "N**** Love A Watermelon. Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha!". Before that, in the 19th century, it was "Turkey in the Straw" and then before that "The (Old) Rose Tree". So, is it possible that whoever first made/popularized that tune as their ice cream truck tune was not doing it because of the fucked up racist version? I mean...don't get me wrong, if it was me and I was finding a jingle for my ice cream trucks I wouldn't use a song that had _any_ racist history or connotations...or if I didn't know about the racist song and found out after I had already started using it, I'd immediately change it. But I'm just curious: do we know for sure that the reason that song is used as the ice cream truck jingle is because whoever chose it is a racist piece of shit? Or are they simply an ignorant piece of shit who jus didn't know about the racist aspect and never changed it? Just curious.
JahRandom deep
switched the lighting up, i see you sway!!
Facts Royce💯💯
The past 5 yrs..Royce been on G.O.A.T. status
Love the new album. Best of the year so far .. cream of wheat guy is a real person. They say a well known chef ???
That point about the album being a bunch of thoughts really makes it stand out more, because some of the songs don't have a clear flow and just say some philosophical things at the end, but when you consider them to be a bunch of thoughts, it really changes your view.
The pendulum beat is my favorite on the album. I don’t age is my favorite song because he is finally claiming himself as the goat.
INFINITE 2020 exactly.
I get it for sure! I’m so appreciative of Royce and others helping this white guy understand (even more, bc I do care and try to learn)...but I do wish I could just get someone to shoot me straight without the hostility towards these current generations that most (esp knowledgeable) feel awful yet can’t do shit. I like learning these facts but I hate feeling like I committed the action...just fucks with me but not in any kind of anger or resentment at all. I love Royce and he’s hitting another level, for real. The realest out
Royce is def. Top 15 MC‘s ever ‼️ I’ll write this everytime til he become his Respect. #bookofryan #layers #pryme etc
Royce is one of the best ever.
Hello there sir Swayze amazing content with Royce Da 5'9" anyways best wishes for your new albums may it reach hype outta vibes
Royce you are a true legend we know this project will be a classic....No skipping i listen and enjoy the whole album
GOAT
damn I was hoping he would do a
Freestyle on sway 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
Gotta respect Detroit niggaz for real, they don't play on Mic.
Apollo dropped dope record,
Eminem made the earth stop spinning for a moment
Now Royce Da is teaching real world philosophy, giving life facts on this record...come to South Africa uzotya umkhono of that GOAT.
So Royce isn't %100 right on the ice cream song being orginally racist. The orginal song is called Turkey in a Straw, a folk song from the 1800s. But in 1916, someone remade the melody , switching the lyrics, and made it super racist. It became popular, so lot of people think it's the orginal. It's not.
The1TheyCall Foo Yes but they “Turkey in a Straw wasn’t exactly the innocent version ice man took from. They would promote black face minstrels with that ice cream truck and they did have hidden racial meaning behind it look up “Zip Coon” and you’ll understand what he talking about.
i'm so glad grafh is being championed here
My only complaint was I wish this interview was longer - keep it pushing R59
Facts @Sway, "he has to tour dis."
