Royce Da 5'9" 

Rapped with Eminem. Pretty decent. What the hell happened to him?
'Cause this is what happens when Bad Meets Evil.
And we hit the trees till we look like Vietnamese people.
He's Evil, and I'm Bad like Steve Segal.
Against peaceful, see you in hell for the sequel.

Royce da 5'9" 

By far one of the most slept on rappers in the game. He's been around since 1995 and has 7 albums, the most recent being Book of Ryan at the time of writing. He is most well known as one half of the duo Bad Meets Evil with Eminem. Dre almost signed him to Aftermath, and he wrote a couple of songs for 2001. He used to have beef with D12 until shortly before Proof was killed in 2006. Since then he has released Hell: The Sequel with Eminem as well as a few other collaborations. He seems to be getting a little more recognition recently though with his most recent 2 albums Layers (2016) and Book of Ryan (2018). In my opinion he is one of the only emcees alive who can outdo Eminem on a track.
Royce da 5'9" had the best album of 2018. Seriously, check out Book of Ryan.

The striver is an interesting phenomenon that is seen across college campuses. In essence, the striver is an over-achiever who comes from a working or middle class family. He may be an immigrant. He may have been a slacker in HS who was "born again" into an academic wunderkind. Or he may just be an over-achiever who is keeping at it.

The striver is willing to sacrifice his social life at the expense of Phi Beta Kappa and Summa Cum Laude. The striver is the guy who stays at the library long after you are gone. The striver is the guy who takes 30 credits/semester and considers anything below an A/4.0 failure. The striver doesn't work on campus, he is too busy finding ways to pad his resume instead of working retail or workstudy. The striver lets his grades pay his education by applying to ten scholarships a year.

The striver is a future Soros/Fullbright/Rhodes/Gates/Marshall/etc. fellow. The striver lives to study. For the striver, their fun comes from the rewards they expect to receive in return for their diligence. Be it Law School, B-School, academia, or politics. The striver seeks to find the American Dream through academic success.
Anthony was a striver. He transfered from a TTT to an IVY and graduated in 2 years. He studied his ass off and went to Penn Law. He got a Biglaw offer. But lost it all because of an unmoderated mesasgeboard.

Successful strivers:
- Barack Obama
- Harold Koh
