Royce Da 5’9″ teased a new song called ‘Field Negro’ on his social media a week or so ago which got the thumbs up from fans and fellow artists alike.
It’s been said that Royce Da 5’9″ is one of the few rogue agents in hip-hop capable of diffusion and agelessness. Just last month, Royce showed himself to be so well composed, that even a warring Tory Lanez was forced to lean back – after which we, as in hip-hop fans, were treated to a short lull in activity, only for Nickel Nine to resurface two days ago touting a new song. Well, that day has come, and all indications point to Royce outdoing himself once again, like a fine aged wine.
Although there has been delay in the song arriving for us, it is finally here in full and does not disappoint at all. Like expected, Royce addresses a lot of issues that African Americans face in this day and age but in his own unique way. He even takes playful shots at Kanye and Wale in the process: “I did it my way, without all the complaining and all the whining all day like Kanye
and Wale.”
The 6 minute long song is split into three parts with the beat building up as each part progresses. It is produced by Royce
himself. Listen below.
Royce will be joining good friend Eminem on his select international tour dates in Australia.
