AllHipHop has published a Royce Da 5′9″ interview originally conducted by Biba Adams for the Michigan Citizen. A few new questions surface in this one.
AllHipHop.com: It seems like your career has had so many ups and downs, why do you think that is?
Royce da 5’9”: I’ve been in situations where I haven’t been able to put out music that best captured me. The only album that I ever really sat down and crafted was Death Is Certain. I grow so fast as an artist that by the time the label gets around to looking at Soundscan and radio and the marketing picture and this and that, that the music is old. It’s like it’s good, but you should hear what I got now. Most of my problems with labels have all been creative. The best situation for me to be in would be to be signed to another artist.AllHipHop.com: Speaking of, have Diddy and Nas contacted you?
Royce da 5’9”: I talked with Diddy while I was [writing for his Play album]. He likes me as an artist, and expressed that when I’m ready. he is interested in listening, but I wasn’t ready at the time. And Nas has made public comments about me, but he hasn’t contacted me personally.
AHH: Do you want another major label record deal?
Royce da 5’9”: I’m going to get one. That’s the plan with this album. We are going to finish it, shop it and find the right place for me.
I don’t want the interview to be like I’m hanging my head like there is so much that’s bad for me. I’m good. You know, I mean, Proof, God rest his soul, I feel like that could have been me, because I’ve been in that situation so many times. I feel like everything happens for a reason. I’m at a point where I’m standing on my own two, and doing for myself.
