When they say Survival sounds like Recovery, it doesn't mean its "bad" like Recovery. Its just a sounding thing...

And I just noticed the adlibs at 2:58. It seems like its the same exact ones he did on Go To Sleep.

however the mmlp house at the end was great, that was a perfect shot. :y:

The skulls is the COD Ghosts logo.
are you fucking serious right now?

jesus christ em this is... how could he agree to that? :facepalm


The skulls being spray painted in the Survival video is the Call Of Duty Ghosts logo. You are either retarded as fuck not to know that or you are drugged up like me atm.

It's a song written around a video game. What did they expect?

Just the beat, hook, and overall theme. His vocals, I think, do not fit and that's what we're all arguing. Just because he raises his voice (it's not even fucking yelling :facepalm ) doesn't mean it's "like Recovery" It COULD go on Recovery, but everyone would hear this song and hear the others and clearly tell they were made for 2 completely different albums. Just stylistically, his voice and his flow, is NOT RECOVERY. Really, it's not. He raps a lot differently on this track. He forms his rhyme schemes tighter on Survival and the structure is different. Not the mention the lyrics of Survival >>>>>>>>>> Recovery's that everyone would be scratching their heads why he had such shitty punchlines then goes to great ones.

It's different, please please believe!

It's def. not a throwaway.. I think people say that cause Recovery is out and they want to be negative. So rather than saying this would fit on Recovery, they gotta throw a negative spin on it.

I like the video, but I don't love it. I think the Berzerk video is highly superior, but DAMN! That shot of Em at his old house. :flutter: :worship:

People want him to shatter everyone else's sales records without big name marketing. Somehow...I don't know how...but he's supposed to do that without ever appealing to the masses. You know, the masses that buy all of the albums.

Someone raised the point in another thread that seeing as this album is less accessible to his "new fans" that came on with Recovery, it's being associated with big brands like Beats, COD and the VMAs to blow the hype out of proportion.

My point is that Survival is tied to Call of Duty, so of course Call of Duty themes and logos will be present.
