Albums Royce Da 5'9" - Book Of Ryan [Discussion Thread]

Wait, this whole time I thought Stay Woke was the album closer and First Of the Month was a bonus track along with the Caterpillar Remix

"I can't go out like I'm Amy Winehouse" is a confident line to end on and Ashley Sorrell's part finishes the album strong without having to do completely feel good music, so I get how it feels extra. But I do like how First of the Month is "I remember when T-Pain ain't wanna work with me" coming full circle.

I have yet to hear the Catepiler remix. I bought the physical and it wasn't on the album. No new verses from Royce, just a Logic verse, right?

Yeah, it's a bonus and just the new Logic verse, which is fine until the cringe biracial rant for like 30 sec.

No need for me to hear it then. Thx

Listened to the whole thing at the gym. Very good album that connects with me emotionally.

The only bad song is the joint with the children's show vibe where the lil girl keeps saying "Ryan!"

Now I'll go back and read what you guys think.

This album is so good. I really wish Summer On Lock had a Pusha T verse instead of a simple ass hook. For some reason I really enjoy Dumb. That beat knocks. Royce is such a great story teller.

Royce Da 5'9 > your favorite rapper

Dumb fills like a Dre produced track

somethin I might be reaching on is the keys on "power" I can only describe as the same key the classic NFL films use with games in the winter... this song was about Thanksgiving and Lions play every Thanksgiving

some shyt only a detroiter would notice

 

[Ice_MF_Mike]

Outstanding album. Gets better with every listen. The rhyme schemes on Power are ridiculous btw.

 

[Theo Penn]

Album of the fukkin Year.

That Power outro
I was a runaaaawaaaay, I was a runaaaawaaaay

Royce gave it all in this album

 

[MarcP]

Love this album, I was impressed with Phryme 2 already but this quickly took over as the better of the two, for me personally it's competing with the Black Milk joint for album of the year
