It's hard to believe it's been five years since Royce Da 5'9" released a solo album. Mainly because he hasn't been taking a break at all, between his work with Slaughterhouse and Prhyme.  Layers, that first solo album in half a decade, is now available for an early stream

Layers is the perfect title, because the project's lyricism includes both over-your-head punchlines and personal messages.

Stream Layers below, then pre-order on iTunes.
