Royce Da 5'9" jumped into the heated debate over whether vaccines cause autism on his Allegory track 'Tricked.'

"From day one at the hospital they target our children/Say they gonna immunize 'em they somehow get autism," Royce raps.

Royce, who has a son on the autism spectrum, addressed his Anti-Vaxx views, saying it's the pro-vaccine crowd which are trying to impose their views on others.

"I have a child on the spectrum. All of my kids have been vaccinated. Within the last couple of years, I started being just real, real information junkie," he told Complex. "I found that I was able to draw a correlation between autism and vaccination. I found vaccinations link back to autism in many ways. "

When pressed on whether it was dangerous for a public figure like himself to discourage vaccines -- which have saved millions of lives -- Royce pushed back on the premise.

"It's not a danger, because I'm speaking the facts. People who are against the anti-vaxxers, where are their facts at? What facts do they have? Was there something that America told them? Because I operate under the edict that America is guilty until proven innocent," Royce argued

Do you buy Royce's argument?
