Royce has also been educating the masses who are so critical of Black people’s hesitancy to leap at every magic cure or vaccination, by highlighting some of America’s shameful past.

On Wednesday, April 8th, he posted information on the Tuskegee Study that used Black people as guinea pigs and injected them with Syphilis— under the guise of them getting free healthcare.

Royce is not doing one or two acts, he is incorporating into his life, ways to help his people through this tough time.

AllHipHop.com extends a heartfelt, peace and blessings to Royce as he and his family grieve the loss of their family member.

It is in tragedies like this that Hip-Hop as a community finds fortitude in not only the muse of our music but the shared camaraderie of our culture.
