    Disorderly Progress What's cookin?

    I think a lot of Em's songs though, even prime ones, were a bit like 'wait, what?' initially. A lot of his stuff... you have to spin it a few times to start catching s--- and for the sound to start to unravel. Because his raps are dense and he usually comes with a new style...

    So to a casual listener... Of course they ain't gonna hear s---. It's probably just like 'the f--- is this?'.

    I wouldn't say you have to be a fan of Em. Just a fan of rapping. If you enjoy rapping and deciphering a new dense rap song... s--- like this is fun as f---.

    But, I wouldn't even agree with "Untouchable". I heard it clear as day from the first listen. And I'm saying... that ain't always the case. I don't get the issue with production... it's clear and well done. And doesn't overpower Em's voice at all. ESPECIALLY in the second half - I don't know how anybody has a problem with that second half beat and his vocals. He's clear as day and rapping at a very normal speed, in little bursts of delivery flow.

    "We don't need all you crooked policeeee officers peeaceee oferrings". Really nice clear emphasis like the old days.

    You just have to want to listen.

    Anybody who just wants an instantly banging beat and a quick catchphrase... his s--- isn't for them anyway. Nor should it be, even though him and Porter wackly said 'something for everyon'e upcoming - art should be fascist. Why he even tries to appeal to people who don't want to listen to what he does is wack in the first place. Everybody is not supposed to be everybody's fan.
