ROYCE DA 5’9″ TALKS SOBRIETY, LAYERS, DR. DRE, EMINEM AND MORE WITH COMPLEX

Royce 5’9″ stopped by the Complex offices to sit down with our Editor-in-Chief Noah Callahan-Bever to speak in-depth on his career, getting sober, and more. The inimitable Detroit rapper is currently gearing up to release his next album, Layers, next month, and spoke on the journey towards his new album, which includes his decision to get sober back in 2012. “I just woke up one day and I felt like I was up,” he says. “I made the necessary phone calls. I called Marshall [Mathers] and said, ‘Yo, I’m stopping drinking.'”
