I haven’t listened to Tyler/OF really at all, outside of The Internet (highly recommend), and a couple tracks from Tyler back in HS. I randomly heard Earfquake for the first time a couple wks ago, and listened to the whole album off the strength of that alone.
Dreamville is better than most of what Cole has put out solo imo. The production being out of his hands made a difference, and they got a lot of talent on Dreamville. Plus some good guest features. First listen I liked it alright, but it’s gotten better with more listens, a lot like Bandana. Except Bandana was also flames off first listen
the only thing I’d say is that he sounded hungrier on Piñata, he lacked a little bit of energy on this album in general. His writing on this one is significantly better though, he had some dope bars throughout. Caught that Jacka bar too
