    Man at the Garden and Reincarnated are more original references to Nas than this is. This is like a soft reboot

    song wasn’t even out 30 minutes @Beach_kneega they was hating yesterday off rip with the reference, I’m just saying

    plenty of people made that connection when it came out

    watched a ton of reaction videos when it dropped to see what people on

    and 80% of them said ā€œoh this sound like one micā€

    ima be so honest i don’t like conceptual j cole he just not cerebral enough, his greatest talent is having one of the best rap voices of all time and penning some s***. But he cant pull off a 4yeo

    Dude was taking songwriting classes with Cozz and s*** when he was in his 30s and 6 albums deepšŸ’€

    hype for the album tho

    anyways, that Ensoniq ASR-X looking tough on the cover! that’s what Kanye used to make Love Lockdown! really wonder what all he trying to do on this album man, the hype is immense

    I later commented on the rhyme scheme being retained and then expanded in the back end while adhering to the subject matter. Also made fun of him for talking about Twitter in his biopic song.

    But yeah, the first observations is comparing it to the one other song using their story structure. I also looked up the producers and their other work. I've engaged with the song on a few levels.

  • So glad this looks like it’ll be a double album and not a 12-14 track album given how long the wait has been. Hope that he includes tracks he genuinely worked on as far back as the 4YEO-era too, Javari deserves a proper release.

    Excellent track and video. Didn’t need the extra stuff (intro text screen or the preview of the other song).

    Cole’s Achilles heel is his letting his indecisiveness overshadow his art. He’s still haunted by the lackluster reception of Cole World and we don’t care as much as he does at this point in his career. No need to mention it in the context of the Fall Off rollout.

    I haven't seen anyone say this reminds them of Rewind in a negative way. It's a forum of hip hop enthusiasts; they're gonna catch something because they love the genre, not because they hate Cole

    Nah there was a lot of them. Saying cole can't come up with anything original or that he's ripping the reverse thing from Kendrick

    But if that’s legitimately what put the fire in his back to make this album then I get it

    he ā€œworld buildingā€ the project for us tbh, welcoming us into why the album took 8 years. I f*** with it, can see how it’s unnecessary too at his level
