It's his best IMO, if it didn't have bro breathing every other bar, it would be damn near perfect.
The production on that album > most of his discography.
That big sound, the mixing, all of that additional instrumentation.
Jay-Z and his team did that boy a service.


Nah. but Death is Certain is :whoo: to this day, underground classic.
I run that album back all the time, same with another underrrated spitter, Vakill and his debut The Darkest Cloud.
One of the best Chicago rappers that no one talks about.

His fist album rock city is whatever, I'm not crazy about success is certain but
Death Is Certain, Book Of Ryan, Allegory, Street Hop ? All Solid to great releases, he doesn't
really have "Lasers" in his discography mainly because there's no one to write his songs for em.

He wasn't.
And he still isn't.
Bar Exam 1-4 > that whole 1st & 15th run.


Royce has the longer catalog and has been in the game longer, so inevitably he has more chances to
misstep but when he lands ? He fukking LANDS.

Again, there's a lot of rappers y'all can debate on or doubt but Royce ? That dude is NICE.
It's like saying Steve Vai isn't good at guitar or Coltrane isn't good at burning up the Soprano Saxophone.

He may not be y'all cup of tea but spittin ? Royce da 5'9" is one the greatest walking this earth
RIGHT NOW and I stand by that statement completely. :yeshrug:
Lupe took what he did on F&L and made it bigger, more versatile, more flows, and improved breath control on The Cool

Most people don’t doubt Royce is one of the top spitters and underground representatives ever… nikkas just ain’t tryna say he better than Lupe. We know he ain’t got a Lasers, but if we go song for song bar for bar it gets spooky for Royce

Like Bar Exam tapes being better than FNF Vol 1 or Fahrenheit Tapes, EOTS… :francis:

nikkas just ain’t tryna die on that hill breh :hubie:
nikkas done seen Lupe go through phases, completely switch his style & content up and still put out dope shyt

It's time we stop lying about this nikka, honestly.

Like he ain't been rapping for 20 years and has 0 great albums to his name. Not even gonna use the word classic.

Like people are supposed to be scared of him because he barks on records when he has put in NO WORK OF ANY KIND on the street.

Like this nikka ain't been riding coattails his whole fukking career.

Like this so called top tier rapper hasn't lost a battle before.


The buck stops here breh
Thank you playa. I’m tired of nikkas gassing this nikka like he some type of beast. nikka ain’t shyt but Em hype man.

Just some passive aggressive shyt.

Royce deserves the L then. I love them both but how the hell you gonna go at someone like Lupe without going as hard as you possibly can. This is the Mistah Fab thing all over again…Royce tried to do some look how good I can rap shyt and Lupe did a look at me cut your fukking head off shyt.

obviously Lupe is wayyyyyyyy beyond Fab but Royce still made the same mistake. He should still man up and fire back. Go down swinging not copping pleas, esp after talking all the shyt you talk.

Royce has this arbitrary if you go in the booth can you "check boxes" but never explains what that actually means
