I think the song is absolute genius. It's a perfect first single for an MMLP sequel. Think about it... he's making fun of people. He's calling out the shit rappers. He's being clever. It's all pointing towards a sick album; MMLP-esque.
Verse 1He's arriving at the party (the rap game) and it looks wack. Okay. So Em's like "I'm 'bout to kick it"... It's his turn. He's about to turn these critics to crickets. He's about to bring back the vintage Slim (bitch!) - Shit's about to get real with this album. This song is just a fucking teaser for the bombshell that is the MMLP2.
HookHe's gonna rock the house (again, the rap game) so turn his shit up loud. He's about to go berzerk.
Verse 2He's going after the people who attack him for his image. Simple enough. But he's attacking back. His stupid lyrics in this verse are
intentional. He's making fun of those shit flows and stupid lyrics in mainstream rap. He's like "dumb it down, I don't know how, how" etc. He can't. All he knows how to be is dope. And he admits he doesn't know how to dumb it down. But then he asks if "you bozos" (mainstream rap) are smart enough to feel stupid that they don't know how to be dope? He hopes so... I think this verse is fucking brilliant.
Verse 3Last verse of the song, or the teaser. Why not give us a little extra taste of what's to come? Reference after reference. Joke after joke. Subtlety after subtlety. Vintage Slim.
Berzerk is fucking clever as fuck, catchy, smart, and dope. I love it. Don't view this song as a single, view it as a little glimpse as to how awesome MMLP2 will be. He's just letting us know ahead of time.
