Royce Da 5’9” comes through with his new album called Book Of Ryan.
After dropping Caterpillar with Eminem and renamed after his government name Ryan Montgomery, the American lyricst delivers 21 songs in total, the follow up to Layers features guest appearance from Eminem, Boogie, Pusha T, Fabolous, Jadakiss, Logic, T-Pain, J. Cole, who appears on the previously heard single “Boblo Boat,” and more. Meanwhile production is handled by DJ Khalil, Frank Duke, Cool & Dre, S1, !llmind, and 808-Ray among others.
Dubbed as Royce’s most personal album ever, the Detroit emcee said he put everything he had into this album, spiritually, mentally, physically, and financially.
“Everything that I’ve learned, that I went through in life up to this point, I put that all into this album,” he told us in an exclusive interview. “Along with everything from my childhood that made me the kind of person I am. You’ll get a sense of why it took so long to develop on that level, why I started drinking, everything. I pretty much put everything. I financially exhausted myself. Physically exhausted myself. Mentally exhausted myself. I finished this album, and damn near banged my fist against the track board, in tears. This shit is finally out of me. It was that type of feeling.”
