Was Not Afraid a Good Single

[ChronicJon]

What yuu guys think about Not Afraid as a single not a track? Forget about the greatnes of it but think of it as a single and how it willl perform??

Thoughts ??

[UzaKING]

I think its one of his best first singles

[professor]

I think its a good single. Radio friendly and enough to draw crowds for the 'Recovery' release. It makes me really wonder, usually the less cussing and explecite words in ems singles the more controversial the album will be. Honestly, i think this album could go down as his most controversial album to date with SSLP and MMLP. I have this feeling. He'll have like 17 songs and not afraid probably be one of his last songs. Just goin out on a limb here lol

I was thinking the exact same thing

Absolutely the worst lead single he's had besides Just Lose It. I really dislike the song...which means it'll probably be a huge success, lol.

I'm glad Em can show his skill without cussing it up and talking about raping and murdering people, perhaps better actually.

thing to consider. Usually great songs arn't liked at the beginning and have to be soaked in until liked. Case in point, i didnt like 'H to the izzo' when it first came out and thought Blueprint wasnt gonna be any good. Once it digested for a while it became a classic. I have a feeling deep down in the future something will hit u that this song hits a nerve. Thats why Em and Jay are legends

Nope. This song is ridiculously corny and lame in so many ways. It almost makes Beautiful seem underrated with the way people are talking about it.

For example, he says he's going to "hold his ground" after just APOLOGIZING for Relapse...which was a good album. He's catering to the fans, which is so far away from what he's about (or used to be about, I guess.) Ugh. Hopefully the rest of Recovery is not filled with songs in this vein, with a lot less of the facepalm-inducing punchlines as well.

Great stuff that appeals to people and you can relate to it. It was an excellent choice for a first single.

I thought it was a pretty good song, reminds me on the eminem show times, like sing for the moment and say goodbye to hollywood shit... definitely dope

Damn son, I thought the exact same. NA sounds like a mix of SGTH, SFTM and Beautiful.

[gutawafang]

I think it would be very very underplayed in Singpaore. hence, singaporeanically, I'ma say it's not good a single.

[csg370]

Good single? Yes.

Good 1st single? No.
