Lmao basically

Don’t give them ideas

Because it wasn't that good. Outside of maybe 2 or 3 good songs it was forgettable.

Nor MJ neither Lebron are overrated but their rate is kinda the same

That same thing can be said about literally any artist ever

"JAY Z is overrated. Take away Blueprint, Reasonable Doubt and TBA and then hes just average"

Well but it's MJ, often regarded as the greatest artist of all time, so I would expect more classics

An example of some songs that OP believes are "unknown and unsuccessful";

• Remember the Time
• Scream (the highest ever debut on the Hot 100 until...)
• You Are Not Alone (first EVER debut at #1 on the Hot 100)
• They Don't Care About Us
• Earth Song
• You Rock My World

The real question in this thread is how much rent OP pays for the rock he lives under.

OP

tbh it’s a good album but it’s not even up there with history and dangerous nvm his upper echelon stuff

TDCAU is GOAT, btw it's way more successful here in Brazil than US because of the slums video. This song is like Thriller status around here

I'll give you Ben but nah Forever Michael is still a good album. It also marked the first real change in how he went about singing as his voice was changing around this time.

How many other artists you know with more than 3 albums on the level of Triller, Bad and Off The Wall?

OP got his ass whooped itt

That man made Billie Jean

imo I prefer Purple Rain and Sign O' the Time>>> but Thriller and Bad are more iconic

HIStory is the biggest selling double disc of all time & broke Hot 100 records twice.

Anyone else & it would be one of their biggest works. MJ and it's overlooked or disregarded.

Let's make one thing clear, I'm not calling MJ overrated. Those albums can't be touched, he set the bar like ultra high. It just impresses me that he didn't release more albums with the same level of those, not to mention Off The Wall, his first groundbreaking solo success, it's his 5th album

bc it's mid outside of like 3 songs

I was expecting more tbh, actually good discussion

"Don't mean to start no ruckus"

No you weren’t tbh you just wanted a hit thread

Dangerous and History are both better than Bad

WHAT

Edit:nvm I read it wrong
