My guess is that this Diplomats influence is the reason for the American flag on the cover, referencing Diplomatic Immunity. Not only does it show his appreciation for one of my favorite groups, but I like hearing the BasedGod's different take on a lot of the beats. Another thing I really like about this tape is the usage of Dipset instrumentals for a lot of the freestyles, which I love. An introspective song will be followed by a cooking anthem over a trap instrumental, followed by a freestyle, followed by a "more lyrical" song, etc. The main reason for this is that Lil B really pulls out all the stops on this tape, and keeps things fresh by using a lot of different styles on this tape, and he doesn't clump a particular style together for the tracklisting. I was surprised that while the tape starts to drag near the end (around the 70's & 80's), overall, the enormous project is surprisingly enjoyable for such an incredibly long listen (6+ Hours). The "05" refers to a substantial amount of the non-original portions of the tape using instrumentals from the mid-2000's.
Overall I really enjoyed this mixtape, which gives off the vibe of a thug fed up with the ills of the world, hence the "Fuck Em" part of the title.
2013 was a somewhat slow year for the BasedGod, having released only a few mixtapes, but part of the reason was he was working on this massive 101-song mixtape, 05 Fuck Em, which he's been promoting since at least August.
