Last night, 5’9 jumped on Instagram to speak big facts. He acknowledged how despite Nelly getting overlooked with ample anthems to his name on a demo tape, he still pushed forward and became a superstar.

“Imagine your value being based on what “They” think…. They don’t mind showing up to the party late, either because this isn’t the “Integrity Game” .. So, Take it easy. Don’t take things so personal. Have some fun. Create some memories. Do cool sh*t that benefits more than just you and your agenda. Respect the culture and you’ll be just fine… 🌹” -Royce Da 5’9’s Instagram
