    Young thug stans are officially 7x as annoying as Eminem stans. Yelas song is miles ahead, in literally every way possible.

    Bcuz.


    No seriously tho in no way is thugs song any better than yelawolfs. Thugs is a lot of incoherent nonsense pitted up against yelawolfs which has sound structure and 3 good verses

    All this does is reveal what your preference, stylistically, is and there's nothing wrong with that. But this has 0 merit as an unbiased critical reading of both tracks.

    This is true.
    Although critically I don't see an area where thugs is better either. Apples to oranges tho

    Young Thug doesn't have Stans, he has Slimes. Checkmate.

    But yeah, yelawolf's best fried is pretty bad lmao. The trite content about "walking through h---," with one or two reference to the south so you think it's a unique perspective (although he didn't really say anything unique or poignant). how he tries to live a better life but if use a hater he'll send u to his best friend so watch out!! :laff: f---ing tone deaf

    The instrumental sounds like timberlakes "what goes around" :'(

    He says "behold these lyrics" on the hook :'(

    Em's balls are his best friend :'(

    Unless ur my belly button don't tell me nothing!!!

    U guys are kinda r-----ed man :laff:

    Possibly the most one sided ignorant critique I've ever read. If you were serious when writing this you're beyond help

    If you pay attention to thugs lyrics it legit sounds like a 5 year old with Down syndrome attempted to write something.

    Why do you sound so angry. Like you've never made any actual attempt at understanding or processing thugs music. I reviewed yelawolfs entire album (positively) for this sites blog when it dropped.

    Go sit in the f---ing corner

    You continually make yourself sound stupid and arrogant because you're too simple minded. Get off your obnoxious high horse, take a listen to both songs. And if you still think young thug rapping about his sister eating lucky charms is better than a coherent song that took moderate skill to create I have nothing for you. There's a reason you argued with like 5 people in this thread.. Guess we're all wrong and King narsh is right once again. You seriously sound like a 4 year old trying to win an argument by belittling another sides opinion/views.

    He seriously said
    "Take them boys to school, swagenometery
    b---- I'm bleeding bad, like a bumble bee"


    That is one of, if not the worst line I've ever heard in my existence
