ROYCE DA 5’9 blessed the masses this past week with his new release The Heaven Experience Vol. 1. HipHopDX reports in a recent interview with Nickel Nine that he’s moving away from the previous content he’s released with this eight studio project.
“I’ve been mulling over some ideas,” he revealed. “I think I know what I’m going to do next project-wise. I don’t necessarily want to say right now just in case it ends up changing. But I have been working in a couple different directions.” It’s dope to see that he is doing the work mentally to produce better music.
WHAT TO EXPECT
The 15-track project is a nice blend of Nickel’s greatest hits including 5 new tracks. The new songs include features from Black Thought, Big K.R.I.T. and Courtney Bell. THE also contains “Hip Hop,” “Tabernacle” and the Eminem-assisted “Caterpillar.” The span of the MC’s 25 year odyssey is well documented and it’s refreshing to see him with a new take on his craft.
“I don’t want to do another dark album. That’s what I’m not doing. The world does not need another dark album from anybody.
