Primo & Royce

After his mixtape „The Bar Exam 2“ which left parts of the community somewhat dissapointed (including yours truly) heavy spitter Royce Da 5’9’’ returns with his most prolific parter in crime, DJ Premier. Continuing their highly praised history of collaborating (“Boom”, “Ding!”), Primo and Royce team up for the equally fierce and fiery “Shake This” which will also be the first single off Royce’ upcoming album “Street Hop”, set to be released later this year.
