WATCH – DA BEST RAP IS SOBER RAP? –

Sept. 10, 2021 – This is ‘Tiny Desk,’ the world famous ‘Tiny Desk,’ at the world famous Heaven Studios,” Royce said shortly after opening his 18-minute set with “God Speed.” “This is my sanctuary. This is where I spend all my time, and no, we’re not open to the public. You can’t come rap. I’m also celebrating eight years of sobriety. I decided that I didn’t want the game to chew me up and spit me out. I made a promise to myself — I was gonna leave this motherfucker with everything I came with.” Royce has been open up about his battle with alcoholism, which started when he was 21 years old. Those darks times, he once told HotNewHipHop, consisted of “many years of…f**king up,” “making really bad decisions” and “having myself in situations that quite honestly I just felt like I was better than.”
