Royce's verses are better than Jay's. He matched Em better than Jay as well. But, overall, Em's verses were better than both of theirs.... Classic song. BOTH versions!! They should make a six-verse version with all 3 rappers.....
I like Jays version he did his thing on it and flowed like it was his but I like this one better simply cause it's lyrically better Royce did lyrically better than Jay
@jthesnake77 Wrong. WRONGWRONGWRONG. Elzhi is not better than Em or Royce, and how dare you even think about comparing him to Andre? the only good thing about the comment you just posted is that you didnt dis Pac or Smalls.
For anyone wondering, the reason this version wasn't released was that it was supposed to be on Royce's Rock City album, but Em's record company wouldn't let him appear on more than one song, and that ended up being Rock City (the song)..
@SoarAxe the original was royce and eminem but d12 and eminem started beefing with royce, so it was never released.Years later Jay z asked eminem to be on his blueprint album, so eminem sent this to jay without royce on it, and thus u got the released version with Jay z and eminem
@SoarAxe I swear to God. Check anywhere and look it up. This was created around the Slim Shady LP. Which if I'm not wrong was in 1999. Jay-Z replaced Royce soon after for the Blueprint in 2001.
song makes so much more sense when royce raps it....can someone please tell me how Jay-z is a renegade?

The guy that can actually put a fight up to Em is Royce. Them on the same track is just destructive.
