    “Dark horse I’m a Nightmare” this seems so obvious but I’ve never heard it before

    Just to remind you that some here said the side B cover was fake and that no album would drop before 2021.
    Cover that comes from spotify

    Can someone please enlighten me. I see a lot of "Em doesn't say s--- on his albums anymore" which I can completely understand. There are a lot of songs where he doesn't say s--- and is just rhyming / goofing around. Discombobulated is, in my opinion, one of those songs. Someone please tell me something meaningful he's saying in Discombobulated. He doesn't say anything however he's having fun with it and goofing around on it which is great. Why then are people hailing this the best song on the album but then roasting other songs for "having no content" when Discombobulated has none and is just Em rhyming syllables / schemes? The inconsistency in some of these reviewers is absolutely nuts. I watched a review of Side B where the guy spent the whole time trashing Em for having no content on the album but then when he heard Discombobulated he asked for "a whole album of this". A whole album of a song that, conceptually, doesn't talk about anything new or meaningful.

    To be fair, Discombobulated is actually a meaningful song. Its' content is just hidden behind a playful form. Basically, he's saying that he is a hotheaded and unpredictable person since the very beginning of his life (the first verse).

    Then, in other two verses, he continues to draw that picture of himself:

    Long as I got these walls and these hallways I'm always
    Have someone to argue with

    So I act like I'm on a kayak
    with my back to Niagara
    No life jacket, man, I had like six psychiatrists, scientists
    Misdiagnose me with plaque psoriasis 'cause I asked 'em, "Why is it
    My eye itches?" so they gave me some diet tips
    And Viagra with side effects, I might end up growing spiderwebs
    In my head and dying a horrifying death, on my final breath
    I will tell you, apply your lips to my d-ck, it's one size that fits

    I just took an AIDS test and the doctor said to think positive

    Agreed - he doesn't need to pack songs / albums with bars that mean numerous things, sometimes it's more enjoyable just listening to his flow.

    ^plus the song is literally called Discombobulated - it being random content/nonsense fits the thematic goal of that song at least.

    “If you put Side A & Side B together...”

    Mental gymnastics to attempt to salvage this project’s worth in full context with the rest of his discography.

    Side B was recorded after Side A - in different sessions, so you can’t place them together as one to compete with other albums, that’d be unfair.

    Em knows this project wasn’t fully realised enough to be labelled a completely separate entity, therefore people seeing that it doesn’t hold a candle to other projects, shouldn’t be that controversial of a take as I don’t think Em believes that it should neither.
