Definitely piqued Coles interest

How bad is this mid

Crazy work

7/10 easy

That’s just so much lower than the hype and rollout suggested it would be though so I get it

Also The Fall Off Is Inevitable rewind jawn is so lyrically impressive it just felt like he was gonna fully take that leap and just be at that Nas like pen level the whole album and this is just not that

It’s personal and it’s a good vibe, kinda bluesy and folksy in spots which is a cool surprise but it also has some of Cole’s longtime flaws in pretty frequent supply (such as grating hooks on otherwise well written songs, questionable musicality, and general boringness)

2020 onwards he definitely f***ing don’t bro lmao be real with yourself

Easily a classic

Reincarnated is 10x more interesting and well written than any concept song on here

First listen of that s*** was so crazy

I understand if its non illmatic and cause production I’ve seen that a lot and can kinda see why despite me loving Nas

Reported, freaky ass nigga

Yeah honestly I really think he got to the point of just being tired of working on it and said f*** it

Nah it’s a 5

Yeah lemme clean my ears real quick lol

Paragraphs defending a 7/10 album where Cole’s whole marketing was

“This is my best album ever BY FAR”

I can't post a convo?

I guess you could say bro fell off

No he doesn’t have to bring you into his life. He’s writing stories and to say he is not is disingenuous. What if I a brilliant song but because he didn’t tell you who Jermaine is makes you think it falls flat? We need to stop these think pieces. Hip hop is more listening, less talking unless you the rapper themselves.

I never sleep cause sleep is the cousin of death is one of the most memorable lines in rap. log off, get a job (preferably something not fast food), get some black friends, and shut the f*** up, dweeb

The entire concept of the song is honestly just embarrassing from a creative standpoint. It honestly made me appreciate Taylor Made more, and I didn't even think that was possible because that s*** was ass too.

im fine as hell damn

The Fall Off is like Hov dropping Reasonable Doubt last

Were all listening to a album and someone ITT is on grindr talking about munching on poo poo like a hungry hungry hippo

Cole makes music in his lane for 15 years: bad

Cole tries some bullshit some works some doesn’t realize y depends on your actual tastes: still bad

Bonus track …

Damn J Cole’s white side peaking through on track 1
