The two rappers last made news together when Lupe asked Royce for permission to replace Joe Budden in the Slaughterhouse rap collective.” Royce quickly turned down the request, but for good reason, as he laster explained. “He’s no ‘group replacement guy.’ He’s great. He’s not just an MC, he’s a ‘master,'” Royce said in an interview with HipHopDX. “That’s something completely different. They’re two totally different kinds of rappers and people. So that’s not a swap.”

The The Lupe & Royce Show announcement comes days after Lupe shared his Tape Tape double-single with Soundtrakk. He also teamed up with Florida producer Kaelin Ellis for their House EP which they released back in July.
