@Mikedevice1 shit what about guilty simpson? and black milk def stepped his bars up...detroit actually killin the game right now..people just sleepin on dope mcs
dude! fuckin best song ever! man, royce sure came a long way, i've been a huge fan since i heard his shit on the gta3 soundtrack for game radio! royce 4 life!
yeah elzhi does have the whole package, but to any1 that cant tell the obvious its not his flow and delivery that stands out, its always been the rhyme scheme/patterns. thats what hes known for
yeah but he does it all, his rhyme schemes are what makes him so good but he can make battle rap (motown 25/fire), concepts (guessing game/ colors), stories (boomerang slang/ scattered pictures/ audio cinematic), and metaphors (scattered pictures). Plus he can rap about love (selfish), the deal with baatin (reunion), or just mindfuck you with a battlerap (checkmate), dude is so diverse.
That's because we don't buy there albums and that lil'wayne and that type of artist will rat out on there own believes and standards to make money as fast as possible and as much as possible. They just make tracks to sell it they see music only as a product but not for these cats they make music in form of art.
And I know the rap game is all fucked up but there's nothing to do about it as long as there are people out there that can't decide what they really like for themselves and just follow the herd like sheep.
@htu It's not jus detriot kid... and it's just why hip hop is dying... SHIT this is pure mf'n adrenaline music!!! Would have loved to see what the white boy would have done to this track.. Oh man this shit is fuck'n crrraaazyyyy!!
Detroit has alot of talented artists in all musical genres; their Hip Hop scene is doing it real big. Everybody talks about Em, but this here represents the real in the D! RIP to Dilla and Proof. Hip Hop in the D is in good hands with Black Milk, Elzhi, Royce, Kat and their respective crews.
Good shit but that is not Royce's voice.....Who is rapping over it?

I live in michigan detroit has alot
of detroit artist big herk,royce da 5'9,
slum village,phat kat,eminem. the problem
is commercialized garbage destroys the chances of any hip hop artists being seen.
our radio stations only play lil wayne and
any other garbage. you won't hear the real lyricist on our radio stations.
