Tee Grizzley wasn’t expecting to find out Royce Da 5’9 discouraged Eminem from collaborating with him — but that’s exactly what happened.
During an interview with The Breakfast Club, Nickle Nine revealed he told Em not to work with Tee yet because they didn’t want Shady to “get credit” for putting him on. On Thursday (February 27), Tee dropped a since-deleted video for his 3.8 million Instagram followers to address Royce’s admission.
“Bro, what type of shit is that?” he said. “You told this nigga wait. If anything that’ll help both of us. It gon’ make him look like a big homie in the city and it’s going to give me some more pull in this industry.”
He added, “I ain’t understand that bro” in the caption.
Tee dissed Eminem on his June 2019 Scriptures track “No Talkin” with the line “I run Detroit, niggas talkin’ ‘bout Eminem/Talking that shit, I kill you, him, and him/I made a M, then I made a M again, slow down,” which Royce explained ultimately ruined his chance to work with Shady.
“We were just sitting back watching him and then he came out with the diss,” Royce told The Breakfast Club. “Then Marshall called me like, ‘What the fuck? He just burned a bridge that he ain’t even know he had.’ I hate to see young’uns make those kind of decisions.”
Tee confronted that statement in another since-deleted Instagram video as well, revealing he had no idea he even had that bridge in the first place. Nevertheless, he said there’s no hard feelings.
“Make a 8 Mile pt. 2 and put me in it and we can squash this shit,” he captioned the video. “aye @eminem and @royceda59 I fuck wit y’all man it’s all love. #TheSmartest.”
Tee Grizzley is a clown that sucks at rapping! Type of guy to rob a jewelry store with a sledge hammer and get caught! (true story).
But I bet he’d outsell Royce if they both dropped an album same day haha. Nobody under 35 listens to Royce but you old desperate clowns always looking for “bars”. Them bars can’t even get Royce his own tour after 20 years lmfao sit down
His goofy a** homies probably gassed him to diss Em and now look… Smh! Got shot in the foot by his own ego!
Yea he’s trying to play it off now, but that was definitely a line meant to disrespect Em at the time. A very costly mistake but he’ll be alright.
WTF, THESE CATS ARE SLOW!
Fuck these young clowns, no respect
It’s obvious this guy isn’t very smart. He couldn’t even spell grizzly properly in his name. He also got caught robbing a jewelry store with a sledge hammer! Where they do that at? Didn’t he get his auntie killed over his rap beef? Didn’t he get an innocent bystander killed in a shootout with another rapper?
just stfu, stfu now
I dont think Tees line is that big of a deal. Just a bravado line, pointing out Em as the competition, just saying it in a Detroit manner. Em should still work with him. Be bigger, try to kill that crab in a bucket mentality. Doesnt gotta be just one on top in Detroit.
How is Eminem — someone who has a 20+ year career, at this point — Tee Grizzly’s competition? Statements like that are precisely what’s wrong with “young thundercats”. Muhfuggas don’t know how to stay out of their own way.
Tee Grizzly, same with every upcoming rapper, any upcoming anybody in any industry, should be looking at the top people as competition.
No one with less than 5 years in the “game” or “industry” should be looking at someone is 20 years deep and in their same metro area as a competitor. You should be looking at them as model and/or a resource, doof. What, now, Duke Deuce is supposed to see Juicy J as competition? Roddy Rich is supposed to see The Game as competition? Bruh, you aren’t making any sense.
It would actually be “bigger than beef” if they’d collab. We all know T Grizzley and Em don’t have anything toward one another, and just as Tee said, it would help both of them, on different levels, though
If they “don’t have anything toward one another”, Tee should’ve kept Em’s name out of his mouth. Simple as that.
Truth, he wanted some exposure. Young man move. But that’s what I meant by if Em swept it under the rug and did a joint with him, it’d be bigger than hip hop.
Damn damn damn. What a rookie mishap that was. That’s why it is important to hire people who know the industry if you’re super in the streets. You cannot be your public relation/publicist and your own manager at the same time and still focus on perfecting your craft. As my mom always told me, son a nation’s president is the highest position, yet still have advisors to steer him/her in the right direction.
Tee Grizzly has one, but she was murdered unfortunately. I’m sure he’s probably still trying to deal with that.
The irony in Royce defending Eminem after he spent more than a decade dissing Em and everyone around him at the time.
1) He didn’t diss Eminem for “more than a decade”. 2) The entire city was clashing at the time. 3) Now that the beef is squashed and they’re on the same wavelength is Em supposed to ignore Royce despite Royce being more in tune with what’s going on in the city?
That is correct !!!! A we have a winner……. finally. After the commercial break we’ll reveal your your prizes. An now a word from our sponsors……………………………………………..,…………,..,,,,,,,,,…………,..,.,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
Yeah a free side of banana pudding at the retirement home you old clowns lmaoo NOBODY outside Detroit plays Royce haha tee would outsell that old ass nigga Sunday of the week. Don’t @ me
His beef was with D12 not Em.
Sounds like he burned the bridge him-damn-self
Fat motherfucker broke the bridge
Tee grizzley needs to collab with a treadmill 1st.
“It’s gon’ make him look like a big homie for the city.”?! Is Tee really that stupid? He must be the Patrick Star of the rap game because he HAS to be living under a rock with that argument! He worked with/shouted out Royce, D12, Obie Trice, Trick Trick, Danny Brown, Dej Loaf, Big Sean, Pacewon, Young Zee, etc. & exposed how the Detroit hip-hop battle scene went down in the mid-90s to the public in “8 Mile” all WAY before Mr. Grizzley made even the slightest bit of noise in his own neighborhood, let alone Detroit as a whole! He’s already a big homie for the city when it comes to paying respect to other fellow hometown emcees. Fuck outta here with that shit! SMH
These new rappers just don’t have it lol. There will Never be another drake or jay, you need depth and intelligence to scale, this guy really went ahead and dissed em and they are both from Detroit….
Everyone is allowed to take shots at EM, but as soon as EM or one of his people say something back, they pout and complain all over social media. I’m surprised EM actually considered doing a feature w Tee in the first place. Tee is straight garbo.
Tee could pack a concert before Royce ever could lmao Royce got to bring em up in every interview to even get noticed. Imagine being 50 years old and still riding another mans wave lmao ouch
This isn’t news. Royce is right because he would know. He shitted on D12 with Malcolm X and that What We Do freestyle. He dropped Death Is Certain and the Bar Exams all without Eminem…Royce wants Tee to make the climb on his own because he doesn’t need Eminem for credit. Just like Royce came up on his own.
Why would you come out and say it’s BS instead of starting with… “In my opinion…..” Your evidence and conclusion were built on your assumptions that Royce and Eminem (of course) are never wrong. That’s not enough to determine a thing.
Royce came up on his own?! Own to what?! Lmaoo nobody bumping Royce cuh haha Royce been rapping since I been in pampers and still can’t even outsell artist like rich the kidd haha stupid old head shut up
Thats funny coming from a dude who had an Eminem feature on his debut album
You’re retarded. Royce was on eminem’s debut album. Lol
Of course Royce was cause he been riding ems coattail for 20 years lmaooo imagine riding someone’s wave for 20 years and still can’t get your own tour lmaoo ouch
Imagine being a fuck nigga, hiding behind the internet, talking shit about some rich niggas who will never pay this any attention. Your stepdaddy ruined you…. Or momma had a LOT of uncle’s around.
Imagine being an old head getting mad at something posted on the internet haha you old clowns are soft and crybabies. No wonder all the new youngins running the game haha clown
Yeah just on the chorus though really
…..That’s if you look at it from the perspective that lacks objectivity. Everything you’ve pointed out is what you’ve chosen to believe, …which is fine if you admitted as much. There, just about, zero chance of you arriving at the truth when you use biased logic. Eminem fans are notorious for a general inability to be fair. That was confirmed at the very start when you expressed frustration. Why?
That was very eloquent but, wrong…..if you watch the interview, that’s exactly what he said….there’s nothing to be objective about….he said that. Maybe you have hate in your eyes at the mere notion of someone being on the side of Eminem….what he says makes sense….I don’t listen to Tee at all….don’t know one song….if he would’ve popped up on a song with Em, I would’ve immediately assumed he was an artist they signed.
I tried to respond to Mike and NOR AV….
Regardless of the situation Tee and Em should most definitely try to get past this for the fans sake. I’m just saying Tee`s dope, man. Honestly, I understand sometimes you gotta shine on your own, which is what Royce was saying, but Tee`s been shining for a while. It just don’t seem to me like anyone at this point would think Tee couldn`t be there without Em, Most everyone I know is listening, and half of them don’t even listen to hip hop at all.
I have never got into my car and said, “Hey, I’m gonna bump some Tee Grizzley today.” LMAO. Who tf is bumping Tee voluntarily?
Who tf is bumping Royce 2020?! Tee grizzley first day out did more numbers than anything Royce has ever done lmaoo stupid old head shut up
Get TG’s dick out your mouth!!!
Lmaoo look at this fruity old head talking about d*cks in the morning haha I rest my case. Mad tee is killing Royce in all aspects of the game haha must suck
there you go trolling again
I done heard more people playing tee than MF riding around playing Em
Lol..Royce wasn’t blocking him. People always want drama. But didn’t tee shoot himself in the foot by dissing Eminem?
Look at what happens when the youngns try dissing the legends of the game for clout. Now he crying wolf on social media cuz he found out that he would have secured a bag and a future with an EM feature before the diss.
He needs to apologise on a track.
I agree 100%. Putting it on wax for the world to hear would be a respectful move imo.
Ok he definitely fucked up
Succ me willy yuh
Anyone ever notice how Royce got to bring up em in ever interview he gets?! This man been “rapping” for 25 years and still can’t get his own tour or even outsell future lmaoo imagine being 50 years old and still bringing another man up every chance you get for relevancy. You old heads done lost it lmaooo
stupid nigga its the interviewer asking the quetions queerdo
And lil shitfucks like you gone keep pushing the culture forward, huh? I hate you lil crumbsnatchers, always concentrating on ppl downfalls, having no respect for the OG’s who paved the way.
“Lmaooo “OG” forget you old heads. Move along now so Migos, future, youngboy etc…. can pave the way for the youngins. Nobody bumping Royce in 2020 his time is was up in 97 lmaooo old head
You just ain’t got the brain to understand complexity…smh book if Ryan and allegory both are hard albums. Stick with your catchy tunes. Someone clearly only got the radio ???
sounds like pusha t
Nicki Minaj got more bars and credibility than Royce will ever have Lmaoo old head could never get his own tour and is only relevant when he brings em up. When Royce can outsell Gucci mane then ill interested. Let’s argue
don’t feed the trolls
Sad but true. Similar to how Pusha T is always brought up when Drake is involved. He is a great lyricist though…his song making ability is seriously lacking. I have never heard anyway say “Turn that Royce sh1t
Bro you sound dumb as shit Nick don’t get no credibility to me until Im sure she don’t have a ghostwriter
F outta here. These youngstas are disrespecting the ogs. What made this young cat diss Em in the first place? These kids think that 1 minute of clout is what’s going to last them forever in this industry. Stay in your lane kid stop the shenanigans and learn from the OG’s.
Fat dog faced motherfucker should’ve thought ahead instead of going straight for a diss in a desperate attempt to get attention, you done fucked up old yeller
Tee who the fuck ever he’s trash
Nigga looked confused in the picture so it doesn’t surprise me.
So he dissed someone for no reason and now wants to be salty after finding out he could have got a co-sign? Take the lesson like an adult and move on.
Eminem always supports his Detroit rappers he should have known that from the off ,know your roots
He dissed him that’s no support
Detroit’s underground used to b dope
Dogmatic
