Bad Meets Evil has a new video out, in name only. Really, this is the Royce da 5’9″ show, as the duo’s “Writer’s Block” of Royce’s Success Is Certain gets the video treatment with Eminem conspicuously absent. While the song is undeniably a certified banger and Royce holds his own in the pretty straightforward video (luxury car driven slowly through city at night, shots of rapper performing, drinks being poured, lather, rinse, repeat), the absence of Mr. Mathers really makes the video sort of pointless. The video just feels empty with Royce forced to awkwardly pantomime Em’s rhymes, a presentation that’s just too uncomfortable to merit repeated viewings. Sorry guys, but next time do it right and create something worthy of the RESPECT. cover stars.
EDIT: An earlier version of this post incorrectly stated that “Writer’s Block” appears on Hell: The Sequel from Bad Meets Evil, not Success is Certain, which is a solo Royce effort. We regret the error.
