    Headlights is good.

    You're on crack if you think it's better than Only One.

    Both are about the same tbh.... Both of them are probably around a 7/10 for me.

    shocked the poll is so close

    is anyone going to actually post any criteria?

    does the goat headlights video get factored in?

    em rhymes circles around ye so we can't really go there

    both songs lack solid storytelling

    the autotune sounds ridiculous and eminem's santa line demolishes every single punch in only one

    obviously paul's keyboard accompaniment here is lightyears ahead of anything em could produce, and nate doesn't sound his best even though the hook is very well written

    starting at tell nori about me, only one is much more enjoyable, but that doesn't even amount to half the song

    overall, headlights is the better hiphop record

    - headlights beat is meh
    - hook is average (imo)
    - verses are very good except for a few lines (the writing I mean)
    - execution is good in some parts, average in other parts

    It had potential to be a classic, but now I would say 7/10

    only one could have easily been so much better though

    and headlights is an actual rap

    I've admitted that the hl beat and hook are worthless compared to paul but the verses s--- all over kanye's nearly incoherent at times rambling

    tell nori about me brought a tear to my eye
    but so did a half dozen lines in headlights

    how many of you actually read the unbelievably positive responses headlights got when it came out on tr and in the basement?
