Royal Entry

About Me

Royal Entry (born Harold Cottingham, 1986 in Milton, Florida) is an Emcee from North Carolina. He began his journey as a lyrical Emcee at the age of 6. Using the struggles he had to face as Energy, he found a way to say what was on his mind through music. At the age of 14, he developed the name of Royal Entry, meaning, overcoming struggles and standing aloneas a king. At the age of 15, he started a group known as S.Y. (Street Yungstaz) with members Jemini, Ace of Spadez, Ziggy Zel, and P.11. At the age of 16, the Street Yungstaz broke up and Royal Entry became a member of S.O.D. (Seeds of Deception) but it was short lived. Royal Entry Was Dropped due to creative differences. Due to the problems with his family, at the age of 18,Royal Entry was forced to live on the streets. During this time he began a friendship with a local producer named Loki. With Royal Entrys lyrical gift, and the passion Loki put into his beats, Royal Entry felt as if he found his calling. As the door to the hip-hop industry opens, Royal Entry is showing the world that he is going to be known as one of the illest emcees to step in the game.
