Asshole

Postby Evil Twin » Mar 23rd, '14, 14:54

Being playing this song quite a lot lately. Really digging it more and more every time I listen. Despite it being produced by Alex Da Kid, the beat isn't amazing but I like how it switches up in the 2nd and 3rd verses. And of course Em goes HAM on this shit and touches on a lot of things. Underrated track in my honest opinion.

Thoughts?

We're gonna rock this house until we knock it down
So turn the volume loud, cause it's mayhem 'til the a.m.
So baby make just like K-Fed and let yourself go, let yourself go
Say fuck it before we kick the bucket
Life's too short to not go for broke

Go Berzerk!

I actually like the beat, sounds good on my headphones. The verses are jam packed with MMLP1esque material. Classic Em tbh

At fist I didn't like it, especially because of the beat. It's much much better now when I ignore the beat and just listen to the verses. :y:

And comes again
That ain't me
He's just a friend who pops up now and again
So don't blame me, blame him

Singin' "Bagpipes from Baghdad" again
In my dad's drag draggin' a faggot in a Glad bag
Won't be the last time I make a dramatic entrance like that again
You thought I was lyin' when I said I think that I'm crossin' the line again
I've lost my mind, caution oh God I think I've just thought of another fucking line
Forgive me father, for I have sinned
But hip hop has left me brainwashed with a violent streak

Agreed. Super underrated track and people just write it off because of the beat. It sounds good with a good pair of headphones IMO.

"A pessimist who transformed to an optimist in his prime
So even if I'm half dead, I'm half alive
Poured my half empty glass in a cup, so now my cup has runneth over
and I'm bout to set it on you like a mothafucking coaster"

On headphones the beat sounds decent. In another setting it's mediocre but not so terrible it makes the track not listenable. I like Em's obvious touches to the beat, they make it better.

As for the verses, they are great but not among my favorite for some reason. Idk. I don't listen to this song very often so maybe I'm underrating the hell outta them but I enjoy his verses on songs like RoR and Brainless much more.

Always loved this song, been bumping it more recently.
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 agree. Skylar could do it much, much better. Her part doesn't even fit imo...

Oh yeah I forgot to mention Skylar. I like Skyar a lot but on this song she was terrible. Sounded so bored and robotic.

I got over the beat, but Skylar's voice on this one is just terrible.
