So Wassup? Episode 14 | Royce da 5'9" "Boom"

[@grinchoi1]

“Rap now is a circus of clowns. A lot of lip from cliques I’d prolly rap circles around” sooo many quotables from Royce on this joint. One the illest songs EVER.

Easily one of my favorite Preemo instrumentals. This got me hooked on his obscure usage of samples for sure. Completely addictive to the ear. Like Kick In The Door

[@Runawayboxfan]

Kick in the door is such a banger as well holy sht

[@jdnwritingmachine]

One of the greatest joints ever in the history of the genre or any genre for that matter. Absolutely incredible.

[@VeganPopTart]

Made my year hearing that PRhyme 3 is being worked on. Primo has always been my #1 producer and Royce well lets just say he is in my top 5 GOAT list. Being from Michigan dont hurt either. Now if we could just get a Bad Meets Evil 2.

[@AQuestionofCharacter]

Man. How can you not love Premier? Just the greatest guy ever. Also, the "Nooooo" part had me crying

[@ewansihasimmons8070]

Premier has an incredible memory and it clearly helps him remember the intricacies of everything associated with his music, from the beats and sounds to the people involved. He could do about 200 of these easily and not ever have to repeat himself. So glad he is sharing his musical stories with the masses!

[@rodneycarterakaice2281]

Beat is so dope and works perfectly with Royce's delivery, lyricism, and poisonous pen.

I love CNN but I'm glad they showed up late.

I'm a very very very amateur musician that mostly writes shitty pop punk music for my own enjoyment, but anytime I listen to something I wrote and recorded years ago I could tell you exactly where I was when I wrote it, where I was when I recorded it, and other significant things that were going on in my life at the time. Each song is like a time capsule, for better or worse.
