Ave is a Latin word, used by the Romans as a salutation and greeting, meaning "hail". It is the singular imperative form of the verb avēre, which meant "to be well"; thus one could translate it literally as "be well" or "farewell".
The Classical Latin pronunciation of ave was [ˈaweː]. In Church Latin, it is ideally [ˈave], and in English, it tends to be pronounced /ˈɑːveɪ/.
The term was notably used to greet the Caesar or other authorities. Suetonius recorded that on one occasion, naumachiarii—captives and criminals fated to die fighting during mock naval encounters—addressed Caesar with the words Ave Caesar! Morituri te salutant! ("Hail, Caesar! Those who are about to die salute you!") in an attempt to avoid death. The expression is not recorded as being used in Roman times on any other occasion.
The Vulgate version of the Annunciation translates the salute of the angel to Mary, Mother of Jesus as Ave Maria, gratia plena ("Hail Mary, full of grace"). Ave Maria is a Catholic Marian prayer that also has inspired authors of religious music.
Ryan Daniel Montgomery (born July 5, 1977), better known by his stage name Royce da 5'9", is an American rapper. He is known for his longtime association with Eminem and for his solo career, recording primarily with Carlos "6 July" Broady and DJ Premier, as well as ghostwriting for the likes of Diddy and Dr. Dre. Royce is one half of the rap duo Bad Meets Evil with Eminem and also a member of hip hop group Slaughterhouse. The editors of About.com ranked him #33 on their list of the Top 50 MCs of Our Time (1987–2007).
Ryan Montgomery was born and raised on the West side of Detroit, Michigan on W. McNichols & Wyoming Ave. He moved to Oak Park, Michigan when he was 10 years old, later acquiring the nickname "Royce" during high school after wearing a Turkish link chain with an R pendant resembling the Rolls Royce symbol. He started rapping at age 18, influenced mainly by Ras Kass and Redman. He signed his first deal in 1998 with Tommy Boy Records, after the label shut down, he signed a deal with Columbia where he started recording an album called Rock City, referring to Detroit's former status as home to Motown Records. When the project was heavily bootlegged, Royce left the label for Koch to re-record some of the album, eventually releasing it in 2002 as Rock City (Version 2.0). While the album did not sell very well, the DJ Premier-produced single "Boom" gained Royce some underground recognition and eventually resulted in the two working together more closely.

Plot: When Anita, the police commissioner's wife, is found dead and disfigured in the bathtub, Lieutenant Braque initiates an all-out manhunt to find the commissioner. But, soon it becomes apparent to investigators that nothing is as it seems. The victim's diary is full of shocking entries, including details to an unsolved hit-and-run case; an unsolved murder that seems to be at the core of this cold-hearted killer. Valerie, the surviving victim of the hit-and-run, has been distraught for the last five years, mourning the death of her sister in the "accident." Recently released from a mental institution, where she had been undergoing treatment for post-traumatic stress, she becomes the police's prime suspect in Anita's murder. But then the witness list is starting to read like the obituaries, and new evidence forces Braque to look inward, at his own department. Detective Phil Randall was there, the night of the hit-and-run. He thought he had tied up all the loose ends protecting him and Anita, and now it seems to all be unraveling. Lieutenant Braque is asking too many questions. Questions Phil doesn't have all the answers to. After his alibi falls victim to the Phantom Killer, he has to find Valerie to end the suspicions. Lieutenant Braque finds himself on a race to solve the case before Phil can get to his next victim. The chase leads Valerie and Phil into an underground bunker with no way out. Stuck in there, face to face, two killers find out the truth about each other. Who will survive? And who is the real Phantom Killer?
