Jay-Z versus Royce da 5'9" (Round Two)

As you all probably know, Jay-Z has a song called Renegade that he did with Eminem. But some don't know that before it was Jay-Z's song, Eminem and another Detroit rapper, Royce da 5'9", in a group called Bad Meets Evil made the original song. And I decided to show you guys the diversity in the Jay-Z's verse and Royce's verse. This is second part of the battle. Let me know what you think.

"I had to hustle, ashy knuckles, gotta vent/ Lot of innocent lives lost on the project bench/ What you hollering gotta pay rent bring dollars in/" I would have liked to seen Eminem brought out Royce to the original version with him or Brought him out (Royce) let him did his verse along with Jay on stage. When he (Eminem) and Jay-z had those two concerts going on that would have been a good look!

@reppntime I know right

Royce > Jiga, royces flow is better, and the passion put into the original song was tremendous, Royce and Em have chemistry in the original, jay z and Em have none

@NigaFukYo True

Jay-Z is better. This verse is slower, makes more sense, and if you think that Eminem and Royce have more chemistry you're lying to yourself. Nas said in Ether that Em killed Jay-Z on his own shit. Jay-z brought it back hard on this track.

Jay-Z fans. Thumbs Up.

Definitely Royce for the win

@BKJAYHOLLA Hahahahahah Jay Z is the king of whack hip hop, scratch that i wouldn't even call his shit hip hop. Most overrated person ever, thanks to mainstream hip hop or rap i dont feel right calling that garbage hip hop.

Royce took it hands down.

I agree that Royce just has a better flow overall than Jay-Z but on this song I think Jay-Z stayed on topic a little better, not to mention his lyrics were a little more real.

[jbunit2007]

Royce took this one.

@juvenilefilms Hell yeah my ninja.. thanks for posting it I respect you and the other person opinion about Royce's flow it's definitely one of a kind. But to me personally I think Royce was just showcasing how much of a great lyricist he is man he is so UNDERRATED. As for Jay-z I'm a young hov fan all day but he was just addressing his point of view on situations and life experiences also addressing the haters it was still a dope verse.
