    “When that fuel exhaust is coolin' off
    'Cause you don't got nothin' left to prove at all
    'Cause you done already hit 'em with the coup de grâce
    Still you feel the need to go full tilt
    That Bruce Willis, that Blue Steel, that true skill
    When that wheel's loose, I won't lose will
    Do you still believe?”

    4th verse of Bad Guy starts off epic both on his voice and beat....It starts to drags after the polyops on the back of your tonsils part and I start to lose interest.

    Believe has a great sounding bridge, the beat changes in the beginning and carries throughout the verse and the song ends on some great sounding strings and basically reminds us, that unless Em is producing all of the songs, you’re not ever going to get a perfect 10/10 Em record ever again....

    The first 3 verses of bad guy are so bad and off beat that it ruins the last verse. Also the whole toilets clogged part pretty much ruins the only half decent part. And believe is decent at times but too many cringeworthy lyrics like the world force fed me a turd. This guy is obsessed with talking about s---.

    Both unlistenable tracks tbh. And there’s a reason I’ve never heard anyone play either of these tracks in public or any music stations. They both s--- overall. A 20 second part where he actually rides a beat doesn’t make the song great.

    Nah that vote was there last night. Hopefully it was a mistake.

    Believe will still come out on top but the fact that ice got 43 people to admit that Bad Guy's final verse IS NOT THE GREATEST VERSE OF ALL TIME!!!!!!! means that my work here is done.

    f--- me that verse is so corny. Even without the clogged toilet lines it still sucks. Ohhhhhh, he's retiring! This is deep! Goosebumps!

    f--- off lol.

    I get what you mean.

    But honestly, first time I listened to MMLP2 I skipped through Rhyme Or Reason after the first 2 verses lmao. I was like f--- this boring song. Afterwards I saw people on SL talk about that epic beat change. So when I listened again I was blown away.

    Sure, years later and also if you read the verse on paper its not THAT good but at that time, he made a sequel to Stan and it didn't s--- (talking about the 3rd verse now). And then the beat changed and honestly I loved how he sounded and how great the beat/background music was.

    Listening to this song now its clearly not his best verse ever but I'm not gonna lie I love how it sounds. However, Believe is amazing from start to finish and that 3rd verse .. I f---ing hate him for doing this album after album. People who say he can't make good music or rap at all are wrong, but honestly rather have eminem not making good music anymore at all than make f---ing Deja Vu, We As Americans, GTC, Believe and then make songs like Big Weenie, On Fire, Stronger Than I Was, Offended etc etc on the same d--- album.

    He proves everytime again he CAN make incredible songs.. just not for a full album (or, even half)

    Tough choice, but I'll go with Believe. I love everything about that song. The lyrics, flow, hook and delivery. Vintage Eminem. There's so much passion I feel into the song itself, let alone the third verse.

    "When that wheel's loose, I won't lose will. Do you still BELIEVE?"

    Believe.
    That said, I don’t get why you guys think the one line f---s up Bad Guy, it has a legitimate meaning, when you talk s---, you have to be able to back it up or you gonna get f----- up and knocked the f--- out. So he’s talking a lot of s--- and backing it up. Just don’t see the hate for it.

    Lol come on. It makes sense but it's soooo soooo bad. It's not like it went over our heads.


    That line is right there with

    I'm so done with this s--- that I may as well wipe

    And

    Why do I hear the sounds of toilets flushing? Some s--- is going down.

    So unnecessary, so bad and they take aeay from otherwise pretty decent verses.

    I've never been a fan of bad guy. Yea final verse and beat change was really cool and all but Believe 3rd verse is way better

    (Plus Believe is a better song overall)
