    Exactly. the intro sound smh. And like you said the hook is horrible.. I like the first part of the first verse a little but after that I can't stand the song tbh. Doesn't make the album better imo

    I'm glad we got Fine Line and Gof, other than that I don't listen to anything (maybe dve/pk sometimes) anymore

    I think if they weren't so safe with the songs and made tracks like Eminem featuring Joe Budden, Slaughterhouse & D12 (w/ Em) it could've been a little better and feel like more of a collaborative effort like The Re-Up did. It feels like they just went into the vault and got some throwaways and made it an album. The effort putting it together felt half-hearted but it would be pretty stupid to waste 15 album quality tracks on a compilation album. It served it's purpose to hold fans over before 2015, celebrate the history of Shady Records, and get the Shady artists some exposure.

    We did get some decent new material and the CXVPHER because of Shady XV so I'm satisfied

    He should've just kept the original Luis Resto chorus/bridge, lyric's are clear as day.

    My ears usually aren't good for interpreting certain parts of songs but I am glad I am not the only one who couldn't understand a f---ing word of the bridge and chorus.

    And make a Ricky Ticky Toc type song but here talk about Slaughterhouse and Yelawolf and how they aren't selling like 50 but he still keeps them around.

    h---, if he re-made some songs from Encore like Spend Some Time, Never Enough, Yellow Brick Road and one shot 2 shot, that would've bumped the album to an 8, at least for me.

    1.) Swap out all of the artists with Young Thug
    2.) Swap out the entire tracklist with the Barter 6 tracklist and its respective features
    3.) Change the name to Barter 6

    Instant classic.

    My mom thought it said salt in my coffins. Lmao.
    I've always been able to understand it though, strange but when I'm listening to rap a lot of my friends don't know what the f--- is being said and I can understand it perfectly.
    Also, I really liked die alone, don't get the hate, but I guess that's cause I can understand it.
