Royce Da 5’9″ Bestows Kingship Onto Big Sean

Big Sean has been quietly plotting on his triumphant return, but that’s not to say he hasn’t been keeping busy behind the scenes. Forever a man of the people, Sean recently donated $100,000 to launch the Sean Anderson Foundation Production Studio in the Dick & Sandy Dauch Boys & Girls Club in Detroit. The fully-equipped studio is further proof that Sean is dedicated to doing work for his community, and a reminder that not every accomplishment need be musical; clearly, Sean Don’s legacy extends far beyond the booth.

It didn’t take long for tidings of his generosity to spread, and a fellow Detroit icon took to Instagram to pay his respects. Royce Da 5’9, a vocal supporter of Sean’s music, made sure to spread the love on his page. “Straight King shit,” he writes, alongside an image of Big Sean. It’s been a minute since the pair collaborated, but Royce’s words carry a lot of weight, and it’s cool to see him continuously riding for a fellow Detroit lyricist. 

Come to think of it, both men are about due for some new music – could 2019 bring about projects from both Royce Da 5’9″ and Big Sean?
