    Im talking in terms of either the beat, hook or the hype around it.

    Mine will ALWAYS be Berzerk. The Hook is 10/10 and the hype was real

    Bezerk had a GOAT calibre hook, and the verses just didn't justify it.

    All the beats on Encore have the most wasted potential.

    The Berzerk hook almost makes it possible to bump at parties

    Die Alone. I heard the solo original version by Luis Resto and it had so much heart and soul in it, and Die Alone feels like an antiseptic, synthetic rushed version of it completely devoid of real emotion other than the lyrics themselves. Song felt so rushed and slapped together, just really good em verses followed by an overly synthesized hook and bridge and some new age bs beat.

    I'm gonna say Our House. Good hook/bridge and a good verse wasted on a song with a horrible beat and a bad Skylar hook

    Stay Wide Awake would be a GOAT Em song if he didn't use the accent. Still great though.

    Agreed. But even that doesn't take away from the track much imo. Music Box is a top 10 Em song since his come back imo
