his labels never back him. im sure some people here would call "death is certain" one of the better albums of 04....but he was oon koch...a label nobody already knows nothing abou, n if i a label nobody knows abou isnt promotin...ur basically screwed. its kind of impressive, with that kind of sitiation, he sold as much as he did.
its hard 2 decide who really started the beef. royce asked to be on shady, but em said no cuz hes to busy with the eminem show, 8 mimle, n obie trice. royce said okie dokie thats cool. but then a week later em signed 50. royce is mad but he took it in stride, i guess he figured that the only big rapper on shady was em, n they needed another money maker. royce goes on the nager mamagenet tour.....n a line got confused. the line was "fuck anger management, i need some one to manage my anger' n d12 took it offensive against the tour, so the beef started. it seems d12 started it....but then its get weirder, whend royce let out a diss for bizzare that was recorded THREE YEARS before the inital beef. n im sorry to say...royce demolished d12 in that beef. yuo cannot say "beef is over", "smackdown" or proof "many men" is harder than "malcolm x" "shit on u" n "what we do"
n on royce being cocky.....he knows hes good, thats it. every rapper talks about how ill they are, cept the backpack rappers. royce jus does it more than others. if you jus burst into the game, got songs recorded with eminem, and got a classic dj premier track in "boom", wouldnt u be a bit cocky? and there is no way you can say royce was cocky on "death is certain".
