So Much Better (than what, exactly?)

Postby ladelsofgravy » Oct 31st, '13, 04:22

Perhaps the only song I have serious complaints about. It feels more like a painful retread than an inspiring revist like the rest of the album. Rather than say or imply anything meaningful or funny, he just goes on a long misogynistic rant against women. Much like the the "batter the women; make a cake" line in Rap God, this is a deja-vu that's overall yawn-inducing and cringe-worthy at times.

Yes, I am a feminist. Deal with it. I'm not offended; moreso just underwhelmed. I had no issue with the "choke no whore/vocal chords" line in Kill You because it served some purpose. But this song has no satirical value whatsoever and is just a diatribe with very little to emphasize any comedic or cultural value it could have.

And, it's not as lyrical or catchy as most of the other songs.

i did like the hook in concept. it reminds me of something Reel Big Fish (my favorite band) would do. though the delivery of it is so-so.

em has bashed women so much it has become routine rather than anything of shock value or humor. he must either do it more creatively or stop doing it.

Well, there's your first mistake. Women's equality I'm all for. Feminism, this neo sorry excuse for women to act out and be self-centered whores with no sense of humor, is a joke.
Predominantly, predominantly, everything's always predominantly
Predominantly white, predominantly black
Well what about me? where does that leave me
Well I guess that Im between predominantly both of em
I think if I hear that fuckin word again Imma scream
While I'm projectile vomiting, what do I look like, a comedian to you?
Do you think that I'm kidding?
What do I look like some kind of idi- wait a minute, shit, don't answer that..

This is my thoughts too. I'm for equal rights for women, fuck, everybody. It's just people don't have a sense of humor.

Semantics. I'm not the humorless judgmental type of feminist you're thinking of

It's true. Some of them get heated over a sandwich joke. Shit, if I tell you a sandwich joke, that means I trust you enough to not poison my fuckin food or get any crazy ideas in a room full of knives. :whistle:

Feminists dot want equal rights. They want to hate men and be treated different, just in a good way.

Take a feminist on a first date and don't pay for dinner and watch her look at you like you're the biggest piece of shit ever.

Like bill burr said, women only want equal rights when it benifits them. They pick and choose.

Put a girl in a coal mine work 70 hours a week and watch her start saying how's she's just a girl. :(((

To me it just sounds like another act in this play.

It's like he's taking everything to the most dramatic extreme... it may be a 'female song'... but its need to exist here is in it being that piece to the puzzle... it's thematiclaly expected but musically speaking it's epic. He's totally letting loose and giving us a glimpse in to a crazy subconscious...

This is really like his beautiful dark twisted fantasy. That title would have been so fitting too.

That chorus is hilarious too.

He's got the confidence to totally max-out the dramatic extremes in his musical ambition on this album, rather than being insecure with little lines like "told you can't sing" and all this 2nd guessing... he just decides each song is a piece of him and fucking lets it all out. Belting drama.

I actually thought that there would be a 50 Cent sample in this track at first. XD
