s*** i like Cole and i can't even fight this
I like Cole too. And I think his last 3 albums are all really good but this is what holds them back a little for me
No I just don’t Hear the similarities. Plus dreamville had other compilations. Too many holes in this. You reaching to make this work.
FHD was a loose concept like he did with his first two albums. It’s not s failed execution it’s just a loose concept. GKMC was different sonically and told more stories.
4YEO was built around him having a daughter and his friend passing away.
That’s totally different from TPAB and that production wasn’t anywhere in the same realm.
Kendrick has funk, jazz, neo soul, a little reggae.
Cole stuck to his usual guns.
FHD is way more conceptual than the first 2. I’ll give it to you that it’s not as obvious for those two albums but KOD and DAMN is the most egregious
I love Cole and anyone's who's denying this should search that Interview of Cole when he himself revealed he was inspired to make KOD after watching Kendrick play hits after hits in DAMN. TOUR.
A Tale of 2 Citiez is mAAd city for ed people
ATM>Humble
easily
gkmc birthed FHD
TPAB birthed 4YEO
DAMN birthed KOD
Black Panther birthed ROTD
Cole has been blatantly following every move Kendrick makes for the past 3 albums and a compilation. I like the albums and that’s probably my only problem with them is how transparent the influence can be sometimes. Is it possible that Cole is just sitting there waiting for Kendrick to drop something so he knows where to go next?
LMAOOOOOO

This thread hilarious lmao lowkey true tho 2014FHD, 4YEO, KOD all sound inspired by GKMC, TPAB, DAMN
Convinced nobody itt listened to any of those Cole projects more than once because these comparisons are a huge reach. Especially Damn birthing KOD man what the f***?

You can’t actually be serious lol, J Cole literally said DAMN inspired him to make KOD, I don’t think anyone would argue with that one except you
trash thread lmao yikes
You ain’t have to expose yourself as having poor attention to detail like that
This is an interesting take for sure
