Ryan Montgomery, born and raised in Detroit, Michigan, moved to Oak Park, Michigan when he was 10 years old, later acquiring the nickname “Royce” during highschool after wearing a Turkish link chain with an R pendant resembling the Rolls Royce symbol. Royce and his best friend Jah Da 5’9” (also known as June or June Bug) began rapping at 18, and were the two shortest players on the basketball team, both standing at 5 foot and 9 inches tall.
Royce signed his first deal in 1998 with Tommy Boy Records, who was to release his much anticipated debut album Rock City. Royce left Tommy Boy Records, citing creative differences. He signed with Game Recordings, an independent label who helped him to negotiate a deal with Columbia Records. Columbia repeatedly delayed the release of Rock City, which was subsequently heavily bootlegged. Despite this, Columbia released Rock City, which quickly went out of print once Royce left the label. After leaving Columbia, Rock City was edited and re-released through Koch / Game Recordings as Rock City (Version 2.0). The album credits Eminem as executive producer, though his vocals were only featured on the title track “Rock City”, both in the chorus and ad libbing. Before the release of Version 2.0, Royce built hype with his successful underground hit “Boom”, produced by DJ Premier.

The video was made in humor, unlike Benzino who's tryin' to act hard. As far as the rocket launcher, he could always say it's a prop.

damn. it's nice to see Royce exercising his 2nd amendment rights (like any normal American should) but was all that really necessary? he's pretty much dry snitching on himself and every other cat that lives in the D. but damn... that grenade launcher and rocket launcher was sexy! and fuck Benzino's old haggard ass

Does anyone have a download link to the iTunes version? I hate how the album sounds like there's an echo on every song. The songs are too good to be ruined by this dumb echo. Benzino's whack! He's been the victim of some of the best diss songs of all time in the beef with Em.
