Royce Da 5'9" Freestyle W/ The L.A. Leakers..

[@jboz8933]

"Couldn't make a classic out of that trash even if you had Brenda drop it". He's referencing to Brenda's got a baby. Which is a Tupac song reference. Hard hard line.

[@absent72]

Yep, for context: "brenda's got a baby" is a classic tupac song where brenda drops her baby in the trash. Hence "couldn't make a CLASSIC outta that TRASH if you had Brenda drop it"

[@IENetworkTV]

exactly because Brenda dropped her baby in the trash in a garbage bag if yall cant catch intelligent bars you may wanna leave royce alone

[@antoniomontana2298]

Also Eminem in song Stay wide Awake is in character this Guy who rape brenda

[@CoreyHart13]

@@IENetworkTV not an intelligence issue. They just haven't heard Brenda's got a baby enough or at all. Example if I reference "my friends last name is what you dudes can't make" your not stupid for not understanding the bar. You just don't know my friends last name. If you showed them the pac song they'd understand it, if not then intelligence can come into the convo. For the record my friend is Justin Rent aka J.Rent the KZbin producer. He's got vids in the millions and hundreds if thousands so it's not like he's unknown but I wouldn't expect everyone to know who he is. These dudes know pac but they duper young. That's all.

[@LadybugLuv]

@@IENetworkTV these guys are VERY intelligent. They just don't have the same points of reference that we have. They did react to Brenda's got a baby only recently, and then listened only one or two times. It's not playing everyday, everywhere like how I grew up knowing it.

[@Unxpekted]

@@jkingenglish no one cares about Mickey, unfortunately he hasn’t sustained a musical career that garners interest. Royce is on a whole never planet when it comes to his career. There are unknown dudes out there that will plastic wrap Mickey with a verse but it’s more than that, song writing, promotion, collaboration, business, got to be well rounded to maintain relevancy in the industry. Still love some Mickey though but just not comparable.

I like seeing younger dudes who respect the culture enough to educate themselves on artists and other aspects of the culture that came before their time (especially since a lot of hip-hop “purists” make it less appealing with the way they act condescending and self-righteous because they’re really just bitter about time passing them by) and I always appreciate anyone who is willing to admit they don’t know something. In other words, keep up the good work.

Brenda… Brenda’s got a baby -Tupac That’s what Royce is talking about

[@frankn.538]

Royce's name comes from his height, 5 feet 9 inches, but the numbers five and nine have been in his life numerous times as he "found his calling" as a rapper in 1995 and in his song "Tabernacle" he discusses his grandmother dying on the fifth floor of a hospital and his first son being born on the ninth.

80% of the metaphors here are what hip hop fans love and appreciate.

[@MaDotma_Ghandi]

Since someone asked "What Lonzo do?" When Royce said "Drop a LonZo Ball corpse off at Nas porch dawg, that's for the blasphemy" he was referring to a video Lonzo made asking "who tf even listens to Nas anymore" when asked about top rappers on a live stream some years ago. This was extremely creative word play on Royce's part. Great video guys, keep it up 🙏

0:46, It's a double entendre. Royce is 5'9, and his grandmother passed away the same day his son was born. She passed on the fifth floor of the hospital, and his son was born on the ninth floor of that same hospital. He explained the latter on the Layers album, which is *absolutely* worth a listen.
