  1. royce has prove to be a clown for real.

    this dude sold out quick. minute he signed with shady.

    song with bruno mars, shouting out industry and street ho rihanna… now going on 106th & Park sans AJ & Free.

    nickle-nine lost my respect and his rapping and flow are real vanilla right now.

  2. @ pstachio nut

    i respect youre opinion, but youre wrong.

  3. @chuck

    spare me your banality.

    opinions can be baseless. what i say is the truth founded on facts. all his recent moves are clownish. only an over zealous fan that is belligerent in ignorance would think otherwise.

  4. So he sold out because he signed to a major label that can benefit his life and familY?

    He sold out because of a song with Bruno Mars? Really? It’s called working with new artists and not limiting yourself.

    He sold out because of what he said in a cypher about someone that he’d previously met?

    Finally, he sold out because he went to 106 & Park? So DMX and everyone that’s gone there are sellouts too, right?

    Do the world a GIANT favor and pull a Curt Kobain.

  5. @pauly dee

    really? you pulling the family and finance argument?

    pardon me, i had to laugh at that.

    and yes, he’s a clown. if you support clowns, then go forth and rep.

    in the words of pimp c, keep it real pimpin’.

    and your dmx analogy is trite at best. MOVE ON!

  6. Great, just what the C-Section needs. Another “marty mcfly” that thinks that all of his opinions are facts.

    -_-

  7. @pauly

    do you ever go outside?

    *dead*

  8. marty mcfly stop playing and change your name back.
    C’mon son.

  9. @D

    one thing im not is marty”lost in a rap fantasy” mcfly.

    im pastacio. and im a nut. D… how about you change your name back to pauly?

    *dead*

  10. Pauly Dee > pistacio nut

    I’m not a huge Royce fan, but from a casual perspective, I think Royce has been spitting even better since he signed to Shady. Probably because he realizes people expect him to keep up with Em on every verse he spits now.

  11. @Graveyard

    how many handles do you have pauly?

    you can’t fool me with “…from a casual perspective”

    im over you. get a life and stop sucking up to dudes that you dont even know. like my god, is he boning your mom or something?

    *dead*

  12. *dead**dead**dead**dead**dead**dead**dead**dead*

  13. has anyone heard of that rapper kid Mani Coolin?, he’s dope, go google him, has he been on this site yet?

  14. Yea… not Pauly Dee, sorry. Turns out you’re just kinda a douche, and nobody agrees with you. Go ahead with your conspiracy theories tho, if it makes you feel better.

  15. @Graveyard

    your quick response proves that… YOU ARE in fact Pauly D.

    you don’t have to lie… you don’t have to lie…

    you’re taking a huge L right now.

  16. Apparently it does make him feel better. Gotta love an internet nerd that can’t accept when people disagree.

    Look kid, if I was as interested in these little e-fights as you apparently are, I’m sure I could find hours of entertainment in stinging you along. As it is, tho, you’re really not that important to me, so I’m gonna give you this little bit of advice:

    You commented on a Royce da 5’9” video. The majority of the people that come to this post are gonna like and respect him as an artist, and therefore most of them will disagree with you. If you’re so incapable of accepting a variety of opinion that you’re actually going to convince yourself that Pauly Dee is behind each and every comment that doesn’t follow you, you very well may be the most delusional kid on this site. It’s just a rap blog, get a life.

  17. I don’t think ya’ll just looking on the surface to what Royce is doing. He’s on a joint with Bruno Mars, yeah, but have you heard his verse on that shit? Eminem & Royce spit NOTHING ON TOPIC with Bruno’s chorus. That’s why I laugh everytime that song comes on, ’cause they just basically spit the most underground, reckless lyrics on a joint and threw Bruno on there because they know the pop audience doesn’t know what they’re talking about and will just play it because of the chorus. It’s genius cause they never dumbed their shit down for it. Royce even doing the “Hi Rihanna” shit is genius because now he can get on 106 & Park and promote his independent material because, once again, nobody is talking about the other shit he was saying in that verse except the Rihanna shit. He’s slowly trying to seep his lyrical prowess into the eyes of the blind. Sometimes you gotta say/do some shit to get dimwitted niggas like Rocsi & Terrance to give you some shine, and it’s ALL because of his lyricism. As a rapper, how can you hate on that?

  18. @Graveyard

    Not reading an essay disclaimer. You are Pauly D. And you know it.

    As for Royce, the dude is a clown.

    What more can i say?

  19. Royce been payin’ dues for a loooong time. I’ve followed him his whole career. Glad to see him getting his shine. Hopefully, we will see more balance brought to hiphop.

    Slaughterhouse cypher > everything on commercial radio.

  20. That “comment conspiracy” shit is really played out. Pastacio, your ignorance is showing…

    Out.

  21. @pauly

    finally… you show your true colors.

    are you really finally going to go outside?

    this is a miracle!

    *dead*

  22. @ Pastachio
    Are you misspelling Pistacio on purpose?? Or do you think you’re being clever??

  23. That Shady 2.0 cypher is still the clean version.

  24. @verdad

    clever.

  25. You’re telling me that I have no life…yet you have more comments here than me…

  26. Then thats a fail there kid. Go back to class.

    *dead*

  27. @Pauly

    yeah… today. but you own the all time record.

    i get to do this on my day off of work. what’s your excuse for being on here every day…every hour… every minute post?

    by the way, i thought you were out?

    lying again, i see

  28. @verdad

    imitation is flattery.

    you love my style.

    go ahead and try to be like me. everybody needs someone to look up to. and im glad you chose to look up to a nut.

    *dead*

  29. Lol the only clown here is pastacio. So if you try and fuck Rihanna youre considered a sell out? You’re just trolling if you say yes. And considering Royce used to have a major deal how is it wack now when he’s with Shady and took his whole crew with him? His flow is the same flow he’s had for the last few years. And of course he’s on 106 you fuck nigga, there’s no Rap City so where else is a rapper to get publicity?

    You sir pastacio, are a fuck boy..

  30. Hi Rocsi!

  31. @yuurp

    being emotional over a comment is a bitch move.

    using the word troll is a childish.

    saying royce is as dope as he was prior to the shady deal is ridiculous.

    and using 106 & park as a crutch for publicity is clownish.

    keep defending the clown. every clown needs a sideshow. and you can be the one.

  32. @ Pastachio

    Nigga please, you’re a Ass-eating Demon baby. I got 2 nuts that I can look down and see when ya moms head isnt in the way.

    *dead*

  33. Do you guys not realize pastacio is a troll? Dude is just talking out of his ass. Talking about speaking in truths and facts, and when somebody brings up a valid point, you call it trite at best. Fuck your bullshit opinion, your whole vibe and style is that of the a fucking herb. Thinking quoting jay-z in your comments is cool, man get the fuck out of here. In the legendary words of big ghostface, FUCK YOUR CORNY DEBATE.

  34. @verdad

    catching feelings, are you?

    you sound like a sensitive bitch. must be that time of the month again, huh?

    you know they got pills for that now.

  35. @ Pastachio

    Ahhh no, that wasnt funny. but I guess every c-section needs a nutrag, so you fit the bill perfectly.

    *dead*

  36. @tekzilla

    another “troll” comment.

    but you bring up nothing to defend your opposition to my comments.

    no valid points… just anger and sensitivity.

    i got no time for bitch guys. e-thugs who live with their mamas and jerk off to rihanna tweets.

    *dead*

  37. ^^^^^^

    Move from the front of your mirror then.

  38. he did sell out…

    to the illuminati, and if you guys dont know marshall is very deep in that shit you must do some fucking history lessons
    every big label = illuminati
    so yeah artist sell your fucking souls for some money and keep in my tomorrow they dont need you any more and put you 6 feet deep

    so who says he didnt sell anymore…??

  39. pastacio is trollinnnnn. royce is aight, didnt sell out, thats my opinion. pauly dee>pastacio

  40. LOL got no time for what? Nigga youre waiting for comments to be posted and responding right back to them.. Besides the fact that I just brought up the point of you being contradictive when people bring up facts, I dont need to defend my points to the likes of you. Nobodys angry or sensitive except you as made evident by the fact that you keep hitting refresh to see what people say to you. I have yet to see you bring up ONE valid point other than your child-like opinion of rap.

  41. Pastacio nut = Lil Wayne Stan

  42. Hold dup! 106 & Park had Royce and DMX in the same week?

    Maybe that 2012 doomsday thing is true after all…

  43. MAN I BET IF DRIZZY DRAKE WAS ON A CYPHER HE’D KILL THAT SHIT, GET HIM A CYPHER WITH WAYNE, J. COLE, JAY-Z, KANYE, BIG SEAN.. PROMISE THAT SHIT WOULD BEYOND LENGENDARY AND DRAKE WOULD BE THE MVP CAUSE Y’ALL KNOW HE’D BUST OUT WITH A MELODY THAT MAKES ALL THEM OTHER NIGGAS BE LIKE WTF WOW DRAKE YOU THE G.O.A.T

    Take Care

  44. An underground dude that finally got a chance to blow up a little. I’m happy for Royce, even if I listen to his music less now. Bad Meets Evil is still sick, they need to work with AOTP & Ill Bill though.

  45. royce has fell off since…but u pisstachio niggga u act like a wild bitch. be easy pigface

  46. pastachio nut = Justin Bieber stan

  47. I was expecting everybody to commenting on the irony of Royce on 106 after tracks like Gun Music. Nope? Continue then.

  48. hate to say it but i gotta agree with pastachio dude has gone pop since signing to em, and all he does it rides on ems back and nut hugs him,mentions him all the time saying how ems the best rapper blah blah, and whoeevr said his verse in lighters i raw or underground has got to be kidding themselves, that fucking t pain ” i remmeber when t paiin didnt wanna work with me now my car starts itself parks itself in autotune” ????? wtf is that did bruna mars write royces verse???

  49. Pastachio is my uncle guys, sorry he forgot his medication this morning

  50. Real talk.. Royce’s music hasn’t been as good since he got back with Shady, but he’s paid his dues, man. Dude has underground gems for days, so as a long time fan, I’m not mad that he’s crossing over now. He deserves to finally see some financial rewards for his talents..

  51. I used to watch 106, haven’t in years but it’s embarassing the chick didn’t know his album was already out …

    Royce didn’t sell out, he’s with one of the dudes he came up with & is holding it down for lyricists – plus you heard his cypher verse so … chill with that sellout stuff.

  52. That chick is smokin

  53. I must say this has been the most hilarious trail of comments I have read. @grave, @pauly, @yuurp, and @verdad, you guys are awesome. Valid points across the board unlike @pistach who is misguided. I am a huge Royce fan. I too at one point did not want him to go mainstream because I thought he would lose his edge.The man has a family I will “sellout” with the Quickness if that means my family is secured. Royce is only getting better and he has Em to keep him on his toes. Everybody know that The underlining goal of being a rapper is to make money. Let’s not forget that.

  54. i thumbed this up just because once i read like 3 comments, i had to read all of them. and then randomly in the middle mister ALL CAPS is talking about Aubrey in a cypher.

    on the subject of royce, everyone made a lot of good points but i can’t in good conscience say that royce is spitting as well as he was before he signed. this dude just sound like he lost a ton of hunger. and does he really have to mention Em in every song? Em doesn’t mention Royce in every song. aside from a couple tracks on Bad Meets Evil, he is not spitting Bar Exam era material.

    carry on.

  55. lmao @ this pastacio troll. zzzzzzzzzz posts just quit while youre ahead

  56. what does it actually mean to sellout?

  57. You sell out when basedgod fucks your bitch and you get mad

  58. Does it matter if he isn’t still spitting Death is Certain and Bar Exam material if you can still go back to those albums? I didn’t like a SINGLE song on that Bad Meets Evil joint. But at the same time, the lyrical killer and the whatever the hell artist that’s on the Bad Meets Evil album can exist in the same person. As long as an artist has something you can rock with, just pick that stuff and not play the stuff you don’t like. It seems pretty simple to me.

  59. You mad that Royce is having fun & finally blew up the way he deserves? I hate people like you. All you want is for your rappers to stay underground and make no money and no fans. Let the man enjoy his deal. HE deserves this ever since his days with the M.I.C crew.

  60. I wonder if Terrence even knows that Royce rapped about shooting him in the head (See: ‘Gun Music’ on The Bar Exam 2). Either that, or he’s trying to keep it on the low now that Royce is gaining exposure – it’d only make Terrence look stupid if he was to say anything about it.

  61. yea i know im gay and all yall are right i just had a bad case of ass burgers the other day my bad wont happen again!!!!!

  62. yea i know im gay and all yall are right i just had a bad case of ass burgers the other day my bad wont happen again! Royce is ill

  63. not even a big Royce fan, but sold out? your crazy. He keeps it 100% honest.. even a non fan can see that.

  64. “Anyone who cusses another while arguing over the stance of an artist is a fool!!!” – Inspired by Pastachio’s comments
