Song of the Day

Royce Da 5'9" - "Merry Go Round"
Listened to Success Is Certain in its entirety yesterday. It's pretty dope. Gotta give it a second listen, as I had heard a good portion of the album before it dropped so some of it sounded dated as "Writer's Block," "Where My Money" and "Second Place" all leaked earlier in the year. But all three of those tracks are nice, so at 12 songs long I already knew 1/4 of the album was going to be good. "Merry Go Round" dissects Royce's career from where he started to where he is now including all the trials, tribulations, beefs and speed bumps in between. Lyrics are of course above par here as Royce doesn't take a song off.
