Jul 6, 2022 It would be a lot worse. Being sober and clear minded helps with any aspect that demands you to concentrate and have the intricate rhyming and writing that he does. How Em sounds on Emshow to now has nothing to do with drugs. so many reasons why “He was better on Drugs” does not make sense at all. That’s just a few reasons why.
Jul 6, 2022 Without a video? https://youtu.be/qy7sci2az88 the song gained attention bc of the Pete Davidson lines/murder in the music video
Jul 6, 2022 I disagree. He was high when he made what most consider his best work from '99-03'. Drugs, especially psychedelics, enhance creativity. I believe it enhanced his musical abilities until it became an out of control problem '04-'08.
Jul 6, 2022 I love Darkness, just wonder why he chose to release it as a first single. The video is also very well done.
Jul 6, 2022 Pretty obvious…. It’s a serious topic to cover which would cause discussion and wanted that to be the first visual and sound of the album, as it fits the theme. Add to the fact, it is a great song.
Jul 6, 2022 It is, Supsuck, but it kinda went under the radar for non Stans, just like Walk On Water. I don't get dropping something sad/depressing as a first single.
Jul 6, 2022 So that they get some word of mouth. After the video dropped, a lot of sites started publishing articles saying Em had dropped a song about gun violence. It is something concrete, specific, everyone has same opinion on. What would they have written about Godzilla if It had been first? What this song is actually about?
Jul 6, 2022 I would have released the fun one first and then Darkness once everyone knows he dropped. But it's been 2 years anyway. They need to drop the CC2 cover.
Jul 6, 2022 He should go an easy route and release a Without Me 2. As Simple as that. Like, he's already made songs with Rihanna and Pink for views and sales, so why don't give the mob what they want. Would It be a worse move than his pop collaborations?
