Song battle of the day: Drug Ballad vs. Role Model

[Stanforever]

"I'm going to attempt to drown myself.
you can try this at home.
you can be just like me"

classic eminem message

As in, just... my favourite?... damn that's hard.

If I was really pushed I'd probably pick "Drug Ballad". As in, to listen to, or musically maybe, but, I LOVE "Role Model", love that aggression, the style and the concept.

I can't really make sense of comparing them though or any two things which have different intent from one another and, are at different tempo and pace etc. because of it.

"Drug Ballad" is an ode to drugs and irresponsible behavior and "Role Model" is sort of a concept song and excuse for battle lyrics. So I don't know what I'm comparing... you could compare like the rhyming or flow in each etc. but doesn't really make either one... okay, I am high. And rambling.

Role Model is no doubt a fucking great song, but Drug Ballad is on another level. The beat, Dina Rae's vocals, and GOD the rhymes...

everything's spinnin' you're beginnin' to think women are swimmin' in pink linen again in the sink then in a couple of minutes that bottle of Guinness is finished

That's like one of my absolute favorite Em lines.
