Nah the way he delivered Legacy's last verse was dope

The delivery is what makes the third verse great. The whole built up feels like Lose yourself. He slowly starts and builds the song only to explode for the last verse. I don't like that particular metaphor either, but it fits, kinda. And the mom's spaghetti metaphor is equaly "bad"

I agree. His anger felt real and I didn't find it overdone.

Legacy's delivery is different from Almost Famous' or CWB's.

In the case of Legacy, it fits well the song.

Goosebumps basically the entire third verse and a boner on the bold part.

Legacy's last verse is one of my favorite on the album, if not the favorite. And I don't mind the flying saucer line, I don't get why people make such a big deal about it.

It just feels complete, I guess the production and the rhyme scheme has a lot to do with that.

Brainless.

Start of 3rd verse is in my top 3 'moments' on the album'

'I told you one day, I said they'd have that red carpet rolled out, yo
I'm nice, yo, fuck it, I'm out cold
Now everywhere I go they scream out go
I'm 'bout to clean house, yo, I'm Lysol, now I'm just household
Outsold the sell outs, freak the hell out
Middle America, hear 'em yell out in terror they were so scared
And those kids just about, belted out
Whatever spout that it fell out of my smart aleck mouth, it was so weird'

I loved both song off the album but for me I enjoy Brainless just a slight touch more. Both songs were terrific though .

Nearly tied.
Fuck top five, bitch, I'm top four
And that includes Biggie and Pac, whore
And I got an Evil Twin
So who the fuck do you think that third and that fourth spot's for?

I'm not, both are fantastic. I love on "Brainless" how he does the repetitive syllable sound like he did on the last part of the cypher, here:

"Still in my skull is a vacant, empty void been using it more as a bin for storage
Take some inventory, in this gorge there's a Ford engine, door hinge
Syringe, an orange, an extension cord, and a Ninja sword
Not to mention four lynch pins and a stringent stored
Ironing board, a bench, a wrench an oru winch, and an attention whore"

"And boy they did flock; can't believe this little hick locked
This hip-hop shit in his hip pocket and still the shit got
That White Trash traffic and gridlock, shit happened like a six blocks
From a Kid Rock, Insane Clown Posse Concert in mid Oc-tober"

whew!


Definitely a crazy song. I take that back, I can see how it is pretty close. I think Legacy is the better song though.
