Tbh that’s all I want from this album
Incredible storytelling laced with stellar bars
If the album is just like this then we're in for a beautiful experience
Nah, not really.
Cole and Kendrick have never depended on hits to have a successful album rollout. They’re album-based artists.
Their fans primarily judge them on what the album as a whole sounds like.
Have they had hit records? Yes , but it’s not a requirement.
Ehhhh
Cole obviously doesn’t “need” anything at this point in his career
But id like to hear slaps, well structured songs with great melodies and strong catchy choruses, and s*** like that on this project.
Cole’s capable. I’ll be disappointed if that isn’t here tbh
Cole the type of dude to give you a secret earpiece and tell you what to say during your first date
If I’m getting dating advice from Cole I’m cooked

He’s given us that his whole career tho
He always has some radio friendly tracks
He really needs to just lock in on his core strengths imo
What are u talking about lol drake is guaranteed to stream more than Kendrick and cole first week
no one said anything about streams, im talking about quality and its impact on their legacy discography wise which means more for each of them coming out of the one of the biggest rap beefs of all time
video and single fire, cole rapping his ass off. im on board but i hope he doesnt drop anything else before the album. if i had to guess tho he'll prob dropping a song the week of release
two discs got me hype ngl
Such a good song man
Without a doubt, one of my most listened to songs in the entire 2010s decade.

Cole has several songs and features that are nominated for awards with hundreds of millions of views.
Whats the difference now?
This why I hate Drake fans, acting like them coming together to pop their s*** wasn't what made it #1 and all credit goes to Drake knowing if it was his solo song it probably wouldn't have did it
Song was overproduced coporeate garbage but let's be fr
Agreed.
So where’s his hit?
I have to admit....the beef really has hurt hip hop discourse to a degree.
Niggas online are literally pretending Cole's release isn't heat just because he bowed out of the beef.
That is insanely corny and I'm praying those people are just trolls or bots.

I'm really only seeing that take on KTT tbh

Nah. It's more of a Hip Hop Twitter thing.
But Hip Hop twitter is full of s***ty hot takes and contrarians so I guess I shouldn't take it too seriously.

You should be able to still objectively, evaluate the record, but there’s no question a big part of his legacy has been tainted imo

Your are missing it, but it’s okay. I understand that we all have different levels of logic and comprehension.
Read my original comment again, use a dictionary if necessary or phone a friend to help you understand.
It’s useless for me to repeat myself.
Be well.
How many tracks will this have
30?

Iceman cover is frying me
Nah, don’t change the rules now. Wale lowkey got a few bubbling right now too. Bills gotta be paid. If you want to be more than relevant you need to break the mold.
Cole can’t just rely on humility and skill when everyone else has to juggle all of these dynamics.
Cole needs a hit. Period.
Let me put it this way. If Cole doesn’t have a hit, he’ll have regressed IMO.
It’s not like he never had “big songs”…but he certainly needs something that has staying power. We’ve seen the rap exhibitions of skill.
Let’s get these hits.
Why are we comparing Wale to Cole
“Bills gotta be paid” yea man I’m sure he’s struggling for cash rn
