This level of addiction is frightening. Choosing a substance over your own son... having 50$ and thinking about your score instead of getting your son a toy or something... you lose your soul.

Fuck there choices. Choose I C P

Your daughter lost her mom but she gained a stronger father who most kids don’t have!!!! Stay strong your daughter will always remember that!!!

proud of you! 🤍🙏🏽

Big up yourself

Congratulations man

the world we live in. the media will never promote anything that will help the younger generations, most young ones are lost already and only want to hear songs promoting gang, sex, drugs and any other bullshit same as the media that will give this useless songs mass coverage. watch how many views the song has and go check lil pump and kanye shit song

Everyone lol

Agreed 👌🏻

That's cuz kids too are busy thinking that soulja boy and the cash me outside girl is good music.

*Promotion of Immorality, Silenty rewarding the moral ones... It's the sad reality, but it must always be like this or people won't learn...*

Divineshot 314 Acoustic uk hiphop freestyle kzfaq.info/get/bejne/b7dgia2dy5PMo6c.html thanks mr 5-9 great video, is this ok?

Wow this shit is really awesome

I love what these guys are doing to keep hip hop alive. So powerful.

609k views on a song with a meaning (Cocaine) 42Mil views on a song that don't mean shit (Butterfly Doors) I weep for this generation

@3 Subscribers Without Any Videos!!!!! Agreed.The brilliance is in the emphasis on the honesty.

i feel like first of all this doesnt need to be compared to stan for any particular reason but if we are gonna do that, one it won't get that respect but that doesnt mean it isn't an equal or better song, eminem pointed out in an interview he did in 2020 that he rarely sees the rappers HE thinks deserve to be on top 50 lists, actually on top 50 lists. so same goes for songs, recognition doesnt equal actual greatness every time. then the one thing stan has going for it in comparison is the length of the song i thought maybe i just lost track of time because i was literally sitting here crying my eyes out to this song because it touched me so emotionally, but i felt like even though it told the whole story, i was still in the middle of it expecting so much more--and then it ended. and i was like, wait, what just happened? im mid-cry, hello? this is over? where's the rest of the song? i double checked and the full length stan video is 8:88 now you can cut about a minute out of that or so for the intro but this also has a (shorter) intro and i guess i was expecting some more anecdotes, something to lengthen this episode, something to really draw it out into that really epic length that i started expecting as this song was progressing. FWIW eminem is my favorite rapper of all time but this a superior song to stan i'm literally disappointed because i feel like i've just listened to *half* of a superior song to stan.

Simple drum beat maybe but the instrumental is amazing. I’m a sucker for those little weird noises

Vvc.cvv vf

This surpassed Stan....and Em is in my top 2!

no it wont

Now that's a real man I respect your father because mine never came back and I've got addiction problems mental health problems and definitely intimacy problems and I dont trust anyone .Half the time I was living with my grandparents when my mother was with her abusive alcoholic and drug addicted ex husband who put me through the worst seven years of my life .I've never truly hated someone until I dealt with him ,he abused my mom physically,emotionally, sexually and physically abused my older brother ,myself and his own son who is younger than me .I have real bad depression and this might sound strange but pain keeps me going

Wow that is amazing. I'm 38 years old so i was 1 when he got clean. I'm 3.5 years clean myself ❤

100 percent dope!

How about hoe and drug?

With 125 thumbs down smh

He delivers again. Underrated artists!

💯 my friend

Love reading these comments...2 yrs later and still sober....Life is great...thanks fam....

TheDirtyBird_ 11 album of the year IMO, in one of the best years of hip pop

It's like GKMC

Arsen Bouzyla Man, 2017 and 2018 was a great year for rap. Jericho Jackson was one of my favorites. Dreamin Out Loud, Daytona, Streams Of Thought, Lamps, No News Is Good News, Care For Me, Pieces Of A Man, so so many. Hopefully 2019 is just as good.

So deep

Your comment brought tears to my eyes kuz I'm an addict battling with addiction, getting high off and on with 3 kids, n my third child almost two months. This shit is tough I love n feel proud of people like you who did that I will be there soon too tho best believe 💯🔒

@@geerubio37 no body cares

could you check my new song if you get a chance? royce is a huge inspiration of mine

Cause sadly em got a fanbase which is not full of real hip hop listeners though majority of them are but still so many just skips part to em verse . And other than his fanbase nobody listens to real hip hop at all.. plus Royce had less collabs and beef drama like em had for like many times

@@RajSharma-tf9lv DA 5.9 is so good. But do u say that Eminem not a real hip hop 😂😂😂

@@thegoats6640 you should read again pal! I said that not every single fan of em is keen to listen real hip hop they just want to listen Eminem hip hop so they just skip the part of other great rappers. Em is real OG indeed man! I'm a Stan too, why would I say something negative about em 🐐

@@RajSharma-tf9lv yes I get u now. Actually Royce. It's dope asf. And I like him He is the real hip hop. For me eminam the gaot. And 5.9 it's really better then 1000 repper

Cause he's 5'9. Fucking midget

Yea...it sux..ihave friend with demons...and kids..it's hard seeing him that way....wasn't there a vid with dmx being put on the spot ..to choose fam or rehab...anyways great song...video was what I pictured

That line brought tears to my eyes, cause my pops didn't love me more than cocaine

so true it seemed like the song was so short but it just felt that way cause he got his message across so quickly with so few words. well done no doubt

FACTS!!

Uqinisile Mfw2 yikho u5'9 eyinja🙏🏾💯

Nah he had bars bro. The instrumental and chorus gave it the illusion that he delivered minimal lyrics.

It's not always about complex bars but the subject matter.

This is too real for Grammy's. Just like Joyner's 'I'm not racist"

Click here to see a *White Canadian* Slaughter a Montana 300 Remix *-Fuck Mumble Rap-*kzfaq.info/get/bejne/nZpyldiKz5rdeI0.html

Farva's #1 im not racist won a grammy

This is definitely a classic song. Neber heard Royce singing but the lyrics were dope and his words were deep and powerful

It got nominated today

Nas is also dropping deep tracks. Go search his name! They’re at the top now. These OGs really flexing themselves while spreading their respective messages.

@ Morning bruh. Yes, he released a new album. Lit

Word

@Ronald Turner it's not Royces fault that you are a deaftone idiot with no taste for REAL hip-hop.

@Ronald Turner but you probably fuck with lil pump so what would you know

@Ronald Turner Weird that you clicked on a video of him then. But it's all good, keep listening to Lil Pump and let the rest of us appreciate actual music.

@Ronald Turner No, dude! Me I put Eminem and 5'9" on the same level. He IS one of the best rappers in the game. I seriously cannot believe what you're saying. I get it if you're joking. Man, he is one of them real ones.

@crackamanDan What do you mean?

Good for you stay strong good luck

Keep up the good work JL

You made me tear up bro! Blessings good luck! 7/23/18

Random seeing you here lol

Book of Ryan is a album of him reflecting on his life. Kind of what I imagine Therapy is like. Dope album one of my favorite albums of all times.

Shits deep. Banger for sure

My father chose me over cocaine

TheRussianGenius dope comment man just a think ... alcohol doesn’t really rhyme with law but it’s the words before the ending rhyme which made those words sound like rhyming. If you think about it he is a genius 😂

Aint nothin but facts, my brothers. As fire as "Summer on Lock" was, if I'm not wrong it took almost a whole month for the video to reach a million. Sad!

@Veer Pal I know, right? Smh

@Veer Pal this shit also sounds more like pop then real hip hop

While I prefer bar filled, quick paced tracks, this is just beautiful art.

The interview with Royce brought me here. Glad to see it did the same to u

@@timi1510 1 love bro 👍

Facts ✔️

This is crazy 🔥

Maybe the best from 2018

agreed!

Wont happen..the so called "Culture" too busy with Souljaboy rants on IG

Grug crazy I’m bout to have my first born in a couple of months. Been using for ten years and I’m trying to stop completely

getting clean is the best way Good luck on your journey

It's never going to be easy but it is always going to be worth it. Your family may never know how deep the struggle goes but they will 100% appreciate you did it for them. Remind yourself everyday that this is a battle, you are a soldier and this war is winnable!

Hey man, recovery takes so much courage so good on you. Never be afraid to seek out an addiction counselor- it's takes serious strength to take that step, but they are so helpful for your recovery path. I promise you wouldn't regret it. You've got this

Thanks for your honesty and yes it hit me too

IncorporatedOps you need to listen to more rappers. Period.

True, even I have an ep with story's in it..not new.

Nas does it even better...

Daniel Schauer several people do it better

Joyner Lucas a great storytelling like on one hundred

Manny Manhattan Music def got more fans now but he should be seen as a great. People still sleep

Rooooyyyycceeee??!!! 😭😂

My thoughts as well

Cuz its not a negative song about busting guns or using drugs like its cool.

bhai ye US walo ka music ka taste hi bakwass hai. sala Gucci Gang has 900M views.

Becuz he not talking luxury cars, ho's in a strip club, or popping pillz...he talking bout real family struggles. Deez new age rappers dont undastand dat or dont undastand lyrically ability when they hear it.

dont expect this in INDIA.

Autotune, son. I mean this with no disrespect, Royce is a great MC but how is his singing without autotune I have to wonder.

Josh Frye naw bro, he can ACTUALLY sing

You late...

Royce can actually do runs and has a good voice

fucking dope melodiessss

How the art was and should be

BlackySpeakz you definitely know what music is fire and Royce certainly is a top tier rapper. Loving your channel and your fair objective commentary. You keep grinding as your channel is a positive and informative contribution to the culture.

My man BlackySpeakz love your content!

Make a video about this plzz

Tracey Placide 💯💯

XXX TYEE Salute bro 🙏🏽

Good on you lad. You only get 1 life. Enjoy it. Dont waste a second. We always have a choice 😎💪

@Michael Pryor Thanks man still going strong.

I just got off of opiates... mainly hydros, percs, dilaudid and fentynyl... Managed to kick cigarettes as I was getting clean off of opiates. It feels great to see someone else talking about getting clean.

Good for you bro, much love! I wish I could! 😞

Dilaudid and fentanyl were so painful to try and kick. But I was using IV both and cold turkey. 13 nights awake straight hell. I cannot even tell you. 14th night something came thru so I didn’t even quit. Boy did I sleep good that night tho. 5 months now

Glad sumbody sees that him n em are untouchable they both have great story telling songs and u can understand wat they say

Gunterstryke oh yeah yeah

Shady XXI still plenty of dope MC’s out there just don’t see them in the mainstream as much...just off the top of my head, young dudes like Nick Grant, Oswin Benjamin, Mick Jenkins, Shawn Smith, Anoyd, Denzil Porter and Chris Rivers could hold their own on a track with a lot of the greats. It’s a shame they don’t get more shine but they’re definitely keeping lyricism alive🙏

I did...
