Ryan Montgomery, born and raised in Detroit, Michigan, moved to Oak Park, Michigan when he was 10 years old, later acquiring the nickname &#;Royce&#; during highschool after wearing a Turkish link chain with an R pendant resembling the Rolls Royce symbol. Royce and his best friend Jah Da 5&#;9&#; (also known as June or June Bug) began rapping at 18, and were the two shortest players on the basketball team, both standing at 5 foot and 9 inches tall.
Royce signed his first deal in with Tommy Boy Records, who was to release his much anticipated debut album Rock City. Royce left Tommy Boy Records, citing creative differences. He signed with Game Recordings, an independent label who helped him to negotiate a deal with Columbia Records. Columbia repeatedly delayed the release of Rock City, which was subsequently heavily bootlegged. Despite this, Columbia released Rock City, which quickly went out of print once Royce left the label. After leaving Columbia, Rock City was edited and re-released through Koch / Game Recordings as Rock City (Version ). The album credits Eminem as executive producer, thou
Ryan Montgomery, also known as Royce Da 59, is an American rapper from Detroit, Michigan. Voted as one of the most underrated MCs in the rap industry, Royce has three full-length albums credited to his name, despite being through more career upheavals than most artists experience over their whole careers. He is better known for his freestyling skills, purportedly not having lost a single rap battle.
A helpful boost to his career came when Rockstar Games hired the Game Records label on for the rap music radio station "Game FM" in Grand Theft Auto III. Several artists from the Label, including Agallah, Sean Price, Black Rob as well as Royce Da 59 were featured on "Game FM". Royce himself contributed three singles: "We're Live (danger)", "Spit Game", and "I'm The King".

In the ultra-competitive world of hip hop, the goal is to be Batman, not Robin. But some emcees, whether they like it or not, are more Dick Grayson than Bruce Wayne.
Big Boi will always be second fiddle to André ; Lauryn Hill clearly outshone Wyclef Jean and Pras, and Havoc was—you have to admit it—slightly less infamous than Prodigy.
As for Royce da 5&#;9&#;, he&#;s a different story.
While the Detroit veteran has gone on record to say that his partner is better than him, Royce doesn&#;t view anyone else in the rap game who can possibly match his lyrical powers.
Think about this: even if Royce says that he&#;s the &#;second best&#; (as he did so on the smash hit &#;Lighters&#;), he&#;s still positioning himself above&#;well, everyone else.
Make no mistake about it:
