Berzerk VS Not Afraid - After 5 days... how many listens?

[Kill You]

Not Afraid was fine, but as others have said, got really stale after multiple listens. Berzerk is awesome, and just gets more and more awesome the more you listen to it. Just listen for all the small little sounds, this album is gonna pay a lot of attention to detail I think. I have listened to Berzerk so many more times than Not Afraid.

The lyrics on Berzerk are such fucking trash. The song itself sounds gayer then One Direction.


Not Afraid with all its cornyness still at least has some clever metaphors. And the flow is actually tolerable to listen to. Berzerk sounds like an encore track that was too shitty to make the album. Havent listened to it since the 2nd day it came out.

how do you function throughout the day?

last option...i must have listened to Not Afraid over 100 times...Berzerk maybe 20

[Eedee]

I still listen to both.

So both.

"Berzerk played more times than i did in 1st 5 days of Not Afraid (Berzerk >> Not Afraid)"

I actually dont really like Not Afraid, and I genuinely like Berzerk

[kkaniff]

Never voluntarily listened to Not Afraid. Berzerk by miles.

I love how the lines in Not Afraid are bad......but Berzerk lines aren't bad....????

C'mon. Berzerk has some straight whack lines too. Toe jam, K Fed on the chorus, checkmate bang bang, etc.

[Monster]

Berzerk destroy Not Afraid, Not Afraid is for sissy faggots & wimpy girls who try to stand up for a fight against a bully so they use that gay song for motivation. Lmao.

Once again, second verse was intentionally bad. You don't have to like it, it's cool. It serves its purpose. The K Fed line was out of the blue, but while it's outdated, so are many of Em's references. Who cares? Toe jam is the one line I will say is bad, or at least was delivered terribly. On the other hand, Not Afraid had some of the worst lines in Em's career. The problem is that Berzerk is a fun laid-back single, while Not Afraid was a serious comeback single. And you honestly think the lines you listed EVER get as bad as THIS?

He's married to the game, like a "fuck you" for Christmas
His gift is a curse, forget the earth he's got the urge
To pull his dick from the dirt and fuck the whole universe

or this:

Ok quit playin' with the scissors and shit, and cut the crap
I shouldn't have to rhyme these words
In the rhythm for you to know it's a rap
You said you was king, you lied through your teeth
For that fuck your fillings
Instead of getting crowned you're getting capped

I only don't see anything wrong with this, what didn't you like?

Well, the first line is absolute shit, obviously. Second and third are just retarded. Eminem is LITERALLY saying NOTHING in those lines. Fourth, fifth, and sixth....who exactly were they aimed at? Out of nowhere, Em decides to insult....the thin air. With some rather confusing and badly delivered wordplay.
