Em kinda bit Royce

[e29]

Not a big deal but I just caught this while listening to "Cut You Loose" by Slaughterhouse. At the end of Royce's verse he says
"I looked in my book of rhymes, took the sign I swear I heard a few of my nigga Crooked lines"

It sounds a lot like Em on "Drop the World"
"Your days are numbered like pagers and
My book of rhymes, got ‘em cookin’, boy
This crooked mind of mine got ‘em all
Shook and scared to look in my eyes"

Even their flow sounds a lot alike. Not saying anything bad towards Em but I found it interesting.

no but Royce likes to bite Eminem

[Bistnal]

no but Royce likes to bite Eminem

At least it's Em who has quality lyrics, not someone like soulja boy or something lol.

Not even close? Really? I was just kinda listening to the song and that part caught me.

Nah, I think it's just the rhymes that are the same, he didn't bite the lines

No I wouldn't say that's a bite at all lmao.

And it's the other way around as suggested and Royce even admits that he's an Em stan. He considers Em the best alive.

And a lot of Street Hop seemed to be largely influenced by certain elements of Relapse-brand psycho. Eating babies, killing celebrities... Kinds of things he wouldn't usually say.

But he thought Relapse would be a game changer lol. Unfortunate it didn't have much of an impact. Royce also mentions Octomom a few times on it.

I'd definitely say it's Royce studying and being influenced by Em not visa-versa.

Royce also re-writes Em's verse from the "Dead Wrong" re-mix on the original "Renegade" too. Obviously a homage since Em's verse became an instant classic. Unless it was visa-versa but I'm pretty sure Em did the "Dead Wrong" verse first.

not even close

Probably yeah, but we don't know for sure.

Someones trying too hard

[shadyboymez]

Someones trying too hard

yep

[Dark Blue]

umm no not really : /

[Chasingtimeagain]

You really think Eminem says "Hey, no one will remember that Royce song..I'll take lines from it"?

Same deal people who say "Em bite Rakim in 'I'm Back'" - Yeah because Eminem thought no one heard "My Melody"...

...tard.

[Solace]

How can you not all accept that it's a major Eminem bite?

He practically said the same lines

Royce's verse was first

Royce mentioned octomom in a punch about a gun, how is that relevant

Street Hop was the farthest thing from Relapse

Royce mentions his name an awful lot but everything you just stated was quite a reach

No it wasn't. I listened to Street Hop a lot when it dropped. Non-stop. Great album.

Obviously it's not like Relapse I didn't say that. But there are traces of Relapse-like psycho in it definitely. Royce even said he thought Relapse would be a game changer and he thinks Em is the best alive so it's not a stretch to think it would influence him either.

I didn't say he bit from it but he was definitely influenced. I can't be bothered to go reference verses but he said Octomom about 3 times and a lot of other shit like eating dead babies that he just normally doesn't. Also mentioned killing Linsay Lohan at an awards show or somebody like that.

So I wouldn't say that - Octomom, psycho-content and celebrity killing is a stretch lmao. That's the fucking make-up of Relapse minus Octomom but obviously Em was mentioning it in other shit.
