    Which one do you prefer and why. I'd always honestly preferred Royce's verse on the original.

    Honestly if Royce's version would've been officially released then surely Eminem couldn't have "renegaded" him. Royce's verse was far better than Jay's.

    Id go with Royce's verse personally..

    Whats more interesting is Royce's verse on Renegade and Em's verse on Dead Wrong Remix.. Anyone know which came first? Both from '99 I think..

    [Verse 1: Royce]
    It's several different levels to picking up shovels and dumping you
    In ditches under sea level front and you can witness
    Let me refreshing you n----s tell you my position in this
    Beef! Leave you under Venice, opposition finished
    There it is, we invaded created a Pyramid
    Of a Haven of names, so blame Dre, and that ear of his
    So.. breathe, I'd rather reach for your neck
    And I never heat you for respect, unless you greet me with less

    I've got a skunk in my trunk, I'm lying
    I've got a pump in my trunk, you're dying, how many lumps n----s want?
    Who's ready for y'all? We ready for y'all
    We too incredibly raw, for any artist that said he would draw

    I stand firm, and it hurts to live it
    You open that can of worms, I hope you ready for the dirt that's with it
    Slap a ho, snatch a mic, being brought to y'all in black and in white
    (It's the new) Joe Jackson and Ike, we renegades

    [Verse 3: Eminem]
    There's several different levels to Devil worshipping
    Horse's heads, human sacrifices, cannibalism, candles and exorcism
    Animals, having sex with them, camels, mammals and rabbits
    But I don't get into that, I kicked the habit, I just
    Beat you to death with weapons that eat through the flesh
    And I never eat you unless the f---ing meat looks fresh

    I got a lion in my pocket, I'm lying
    I got a nine in my pocket, and baby I'm just dying to c--- him
    He's ready for war, I'm ready for war

    I got machetes and swords for any fa---- that said he was raw
    My uzi's heavy as yours, yeah you met me before
    I just didn't have as large an arsenal of weapons before
    Marshall will step in the door, I lay your head on the floor
    With your body spread on the bedspread, red on the wall
    Red on the ceiling, red on the floor, get a new whor-
    Met on the second, wed on the third, then she's dead on the fourth, I'm dead wrong

    I'm flabbergasted.

    In every category, Jay Z kills Royce on this track. How is this even happening? lol.

    You can't even say Royce beat him with "multies" or one liners or flow or overall message...

    Like.. how?

    I'm not a fan of Jay Z's music this is obviously a well known fact but not even i can deny him being the greatest ever MC and Lyricist because he simply is

    And me not being a fan of Jay Z or Royce's music is based on me not being a fan of Rap like that it just doesn't appeal to me like other genres. If i was a fan of Rap and MC-ing and Lyricism i would be fan of Jay Z and Royce's music

    As is well known by now the hip hop i do like is mainly based on the singing and melodies rappers i am a fan of do be it Eminem, 50 Cent, Future, Young Thug, Max B, Z-Ro, B.o.B. Their singing especially Eminem most of all out of all of them is the biggest draw for me
