    This man is criminally underrated. Ofcourse he gets his respect and then some in the game, cause he demands it and deserves it, but not that he cares, but he deserves to be on the mainstream level/success of the rappers that transcend...such as Em, Jay, Kendrick, Pac....true lyricists and artists....regardless, I think over the last 2 years, people and even the game to a larger extent, are starting to FINALLY take notice. Royce is amongst the best to ever do it. EASY makes my top 5.

    • @Black_Excellence
      @Black_Excellence Před 4 lety +4

      ​@@MrMack1622 , yep. Plus Royce was on Joell's last project as well. Then Crooked I uploaded his verse to the same song. Then all 3 of them were just on Em's album a month ago. Joell for some reason is just the least in the media among them. I think it's just more his decision than anything. He was on Sway's show for an interview last year I believe or tail end of 2018, if it wasn't last year for his last album. But I didn't see him out there much more than that. Just the way it is.
      You got Joe and Crooked both have pretty well known podcasts that are on YT and Royce has been doing the most music work between them all in recent years and been pushing this album extremely hard on the media front, which is great. Joell just comparatively, seemingly isn't doing as much on the media side. Maybe things will change or maybe he just don't want to be in the spotlight for the moment. *shrugs*

    • @sherekhanxii
