In the ever-changing landscape of Hiphop, only a few things remain a constant; one of them being our unwavering love for the underdog. And through a turbulent roller-coaster ride of personal trials, label changes and a well-publicized beef with pop music’s top “Shady” sensation, Royce Da 5’9 has proven that he is not only of Hiphop’s most talented emcees, but that he is a true survivor.



Shattering expectations for his massively bootlegged 2002 debut, Rock City (Sony Records) which propelled by his classic DJ Premier produced “Boom” went on to sell nearly 100,000 copies. Royce’s 2004 sophomore effort, Death Is Certain, has sold almost 50,000 copies.



Royce Da 5’9” returns on 10-26-04 with his forthcoming M.I.C. endeavor which will be released in conjunction with Sure Shot Recordings. M.I.C. will offer the first official glimpses of Royce’s heavily anticipated collaborative union with rising-producer Nottz (Ghostface, G-Unit, Lloyd Banks) and also includes production from Reef (50 Cent, G-Unit).
