    it was the best opening track since my name is though.. evil deeds 3.a.m. bad guy (stop & go flow, can't stand it, only good part is towards the end) & the others are a piece of s--- compared to it, plus it has some really nice lines

    the song is powerful, I'll give it that. not a huge fan of all the punch lines (YOU CAN GET THE d-ck, JUST CALL ME THE BALLSACK........ I'M NUTS is pretty ehhh) but as a song it's not bad.

    That's still no match for Bad Guy's worst line. "So I sneak vengefully and treat your bedroom window / Like I reach my full potential, I peeked [peaked]"


    just sayin yo

    yeah they both have their share... but CWB is filled with them.

    not denying they are decent songs lol. I like both. I'm just thinking in terms of opening up an album. Having a stan sequel to open MMLP2 was perfect

    there's definitely a lot of bs on CWB but it isn't all bad. I still smile at “Homie I'll be nicer to women when Aquaman drowns and the Human Torch starts swimming”

    can u imagine if he did it in reverse, then he transitioned it into a "skit" sorta like parking lot, would make alot more sense since hes rapping from someone elses point of view

    The opening of CWB is great, untill he starts rapping. White America/k--- You are the best songs of those (and it's not even close) but Bad Guy was a great way to start MMLP2

    White America is the best opening track but since his comeback Cold wind blows is a great opener

    don't mind him, he's just a bitter fan who hates literally everything post-hiatus, with the possible exception of Deja Vu
