    I know y’all would not believe me if I told you I have legitimately only listed to the album once.

    Disorderly Progress What's cookin?

    Yeah it's weird af.

    Even though I don't care for either... the production and just how they still sound fine and in-tone with the album... would mean, they wouldn't ruin the s--- for me at all. It's mostly the sequencing for me too like...

    How you gonna go from Head Honcho, okay.. to Temporary... okay, but then back to Bad One & Tobey, then that ridiculous skit, then Save Me lmao.

    Nah.

    Coulda (baked) been (I LOVE YOU BEAN!!)...
    13. GC2
    14. Head Honcho
    15. Guess Who's Back?
    16. Tobey
    17. Temporary
    18. Somebody Save Me

    < This makes WAY more sense conceptually within the album too. As GC2 / kills Shady, then Em is the 'head hocho', then 'guess who's back?', Em's back... then a lil gloat / Em track @ Tobey... then end off with Temporary & Save me / emotional notes, which flow so much better right after 'Tobey' / Em's verse + back-to-back, and it's then... 4 'Em tracks' in a row to end off after GC2.

    Way he structured this segment is a mess.

    (n put 'Bad One' up where 'Road Rage' is / get rid of that)

    Amazing how sequencing alone changes s--- so much. Like, those tracks probably needed to be back to back because they're in such contrast of content to the rest.

    There's no drums, and the entire verse is an ABAB scheme... it's the same "poetry style" he tried with Walk On Water but much better executed here in my opinion

    Walk on Water is GOATed and Castle/Arose are LIGHT YEARS better than whatever these Kmart tracks are on this album.

    I expect the Somebody Save Me video to be one of his best and clarify/add to the story of the album

    Nah, I think the lyrics are problematic as well, he wasn't pouring his heart out imo, he wanted us to s--- his d-ck when he puts out mid like it was some MMLP s---
