[Skit]
And now for a brief intermission, feel free to:
Smoke some weed
Do some coke
Drink some Henny
Go to the strip club
You can tip a bitch
Um, get your money from your whores
You can read a book
You can, um, drink a beer

People in the hood don't drink beers anymore. They haven't drank beer since the 70s. And get a haircut? But getting a haircut is not very gangster. Not during an intermission, you don't get a fucking haircut. You do coke, or drink a beer, or smoke weed, or fuck a bitch. You don't fucking get a haircut. And haircut takes 4 hours. Choke a bitch? Okay, yeah, but choke a bitch is kinda 2005

Royce da 5'9", real name Ryan Daniel Montgomery, is undoubtedly one of the underground rap kings of Detroit. The Michigan MC is a long-time collaborator of Eminem’s, meeting him in December 1997, and is noted as one of the greatest lyricists in hip-hop’s history (in 2012, The Source ranked him as the 48th greatest lyricist of all time in their top 50, this questionable ranking unsurprisingly being scrutinized by many as a gross misjudgment).

Although critics have previously cast shade on his ability to create a well-rounded body of work, many, critics included, considered his sophomore effort, Death is Certain (2004), to be a strong album. To learn more in-depth about his solo discography, read this page (the page listed is old, so it is not updated).

Royce is the Bad half of Bad Meets Evil (with Eminem), ¼ of Slaughterhouse (alongside Crooked I KXNG CROOKED, Joe Budden and Joell Ortiz), and ½ of PRhyme (with DJ Premier). Royce currently operates a independent record label, Bad Half Entertainment.
