The question of whether young children (boys, particularly) should be discouraged from violent make-believe has long been a subject of controversy.  Personally, though I’m the type of bleeding-heart who takes extra care to avoid stepping on anthills, I’m all for it—after all, how are American kids supposed to familiarize themselves with the all-important alveolar trill, aka the ‘rolled r,’ if not by imitating automatic weapons (“br-r-r-rap!”)?  Besides the fact that those who don’t learn it early will have a hell of a time speaking Spanish (and countless other languages), it’s simply one of the coolest sounds the human mouth can produce; if you need convincing, take a listen to this new leak off Royce Da 5’9”‘s forthcoming, digital-only EP.  On Gun Harmonizing, the Detroit rapper showcases his mastery of hip-hop’s favorite sound effect over Emile‘s punchy, old-school sample work, peppering the track with characteristically high-caliber lyrical ammunition in addition to some absolutely virtuosic onomatopoeia.  Fans can find this aggressively catchy cut, along with new tracks off the forthcoming Street Hop LP (due out Sept 22) and a previously-unreleased record by Slaughterhouse on Royce’s Revival EP, set to hit the online retailers July 7th.

This song first appeared on the Independent Chart on July 6th, 2009

“br-r-r-rap!" x5!!! :D
Royce's excitement during the chorus is crazy! "Braw, Brum, brr-gahgahgah-braw"?!? lol hilarious, catchy and... just crazily harmonizing actually!

Flow and lyrics are great, as I don't expect nothing less from a Slaughterhouse guy.

The beat has such a beautiful music that contrasts with the aggressive flow/lyrics but creating a perfect balance.
The sample is catchy and it's all so soulful... and then "braw"?! lol, classic!

Dope (underrated) emcee spitting dope rhymes. I am very excited about ALL the many projects this man is apart of in the months to come.

PS. Richard is sooo right about that "R" thing.

This was sick! He murdered this beat. Perfect flow and some dope lyrics. The hook was tight as well, so I pretty much agree with FredRico. I gotta give this a 5.

Flat out awesome, from the beat to the lyricism ...
Can’t wait, these 4 guys are talented (deserving of a much larger fanbase) ... The pure dedication and effort that goes into every single WORD each one of these guys spits is the reason why.

Royce absolutely killed this. I can not wait until the release of his LP, I will definitely be copping that. Along with the Slaughterhouse LP. Everything I've been hearing from them has been stayed in rotation.

I'd say Royce is one of the most consistant MC's out right now, and I am looking forward to his future projects.

Slaughterhouse!! 4 of the most gifted MC's this game has to offer. No argument. If I have one complaint about this song, its the production, and that is on point. Least the argument completely. This is complete.

I like the beat and the harmonizing, but the hook is something different...almost sounds like the tazmanian devil from the warner broters cartoon.

Royce brings his usual aggressive, lyrical best. Unique and talented as hell.

This is the definition of a solid banger. I can't give it five stars, because it wasn't classic in my opinion, but this is the type of songs that will have heads turning in Royce's direction (if they weren't already).
