Asshole

Why is this song so underrated? Everyone is talking about Baby, that song with Em apologizing to his mom, Rhyme or Reason, but not too many guys are talking about Asshole. Even with Skylar on the song it's surprisingly great. Imo the best song in the album, been bumping it for a while.

Because the hate for the beat and the hook.
"There's darkness closing in, here it comes again
It controls my pen, that ain't me, it's my evil twin
(I step out and see my evil twin, he gives me an evil grin)
He's just a friend who pops up now and again
So don't blame me, blame him, my evil twin
(I step out and see my evil twin, he gives me an evil grin)"

The beat. Its so hard for me to not to skip this song, but after 20 or 30 seconds I'm beginning to feel it. Its just a fucking beat.

I really like the song.
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 don't mind the beat at all.
Ironically, all it needs is Rubin to reduce. Em rides it very well.

The beat is ass but somehow it just works. The hook is decent too. Definitely not a song I skip (only Survival).

I love that part. Too bad it goes downhill so much.

Because of that complete douche we all know would have the worst beat on the album.
I'm also not a fan of Em's flow here, or many of his lyrics, the writing and the delivery of it all just sounds fairly sloppy and it reminds me a lot of My 1st Single.
It also highlights one of Em's major problems in recent years and why he will probably never have the same lyrical effect of the original MMLP : his inability to remain on topic.
He starts out strong or with relevant lines but then quickly rambles in to aimless and generic female insults 'shorty this' / 'shorty you're...' etc. - original MMLP Em made all his verses in the song relevant and hard-hitting. Em still does this occasionally but in general he's always so much more willing to settle for rambling when he runs out of relevant lines.

I like this beat more than the Survival beat.

I love the beat and I love the song. Skylar wasn't necessary but hey, song is still great. And yes, I said it. I like the beat.

The beat is just sloppy for me.. It overpowers the vocals. I am not a fan of Grey but I don't hate her on the track, I enjoy Em's verses quite a bit.
