What the internet is saying about Royce Da 5′9′’s new album “Street Hop.”

Drawbacks? Anyone that bought the Revival EP will give a little eye roll to the Rock City representer because all four songs are on this album. We also know that Royce can get a bit nasty especially with his scatological fixation, but the shit talk isn’t quite as pronounced on this album. Also, Royce spreads the “my mouth is a gun and my words are bullets” concept pretty thick at times. However, he manages to say it in a billion different ways. So at least you’re not listening to lethargic lyricism. Oh and there’s A LOT of features on this album. Too many to list.

Is it good? Yes. If you like sneaky metaphors and enjoy debating what exactly a rapper meant with all his cryptic bars, you will enjoy this. The production is provided by a who’s who list of top beat choppers including Premier, Nottz, Streetrunner and Quincy Tones and elevates many of the songs to cinematic status. Royce does retreat from his normal hyper aggressive, but it’s nice to see his layers and his fans already know wha’ts good with da 5′9″. Bravo sir. (Full Review @ Planet Ill)

Street Hop leaked and it definitely is a hip-hop classic, one of the best of 09
