Actually, the place where I've seen Recovery criticized the most is on this forum :whistle:

MBDTF, on the other hand has been called overrated by half of the people in the internet and in real life.


Yeah, Recovery doesn't have many criticisms outside of this forum. Most of the world loves it. 5 million plus worldwide is nothing to joke about, and triple platinum in the US alone is incredible for 2010-2011. But, if sales ain't your thing, then come to my town and hear how many people bump Recovery. I was pleasantly surprised when Recovery first dropped, everyone was bumping that shit, and a lot still are

It is underrated greatly on this forum, where people basically love to nitpick all the bad things that they ignore the plethora of good things about the album

Came back to annihilate, the game's in dire straights, as I await
Word on Satan, as I drop, fall to my knees before this Quija board and I pray
Now I lay me down to sleep
I do this shit in my sleep, I’m sleepin' now, imagine if I awake

@ Hiphopdane, I agree everybody listens to music for different reasons (lyrics, production, hooks, how catchy it is, etc) but outside of this forum I don't think, or I very rarely have seen people say Recovery is better than MBDTF, maybe thats because I don't visit too many other forums but this is really the only place I've saw people making comments, again I agree it definitely isn't a ridiculous thing to say, I just haven't saw that opinion being expressed too often

@ xxTrigger1989xx, I also agree with you and basically what I said to Hiphopdane is my same response to you, I wasn't being a dick when I said that, I just genuinely haven't, outside of this forum, saw people making comments about like that

@ Master Cheif, If you think people and reviewers overrated MBDTF then maybe you just underrate it?

Anyway, this a thread about Lasers, sorry for taking it off topic :y:
Same sword they knight you they gon' good night you with
Sh.., Thats' only half if they like you
That ain't even the half what they might do
Don't believe me, ask Michael
See Martin, see Malcolm
You see Biggie, see Pac, see success and its outcome
See Jesus, see Judas; see Caesar, see Brutus
See success is like suicide
Suicide, it's a suicide
If you succeed, prepare to be crucified

We've gone kind of off topic now but I don't think any forum on the Internet is a true representation of the world (not that it is what you exactly claim). Even if you can find 1000 forums that say MJ's Thriller is a bad album, it isn't necesarrily true.
