If I had one complaint off first listen, it would be sequencing. the album starts off with good energy from the beats and the rhymes and then slows down and mellows out towards the middle. Overall I think it's his best album

please.....Lupe Fiasco has the most boring album I have ever heard....that shyt put my kids to sleep bruh....and it still does....
Drop some of Cole's quotes that caught your attention on this album. This is his 3rd album and I can't even come up with dope lines that he's dropped that made me go :ohhh:

It then dawned on me that Cole only does storytelling well. As far as just rappin', dude isn't doing anything special.

This might be his best album on 2nd listen. 7.5/10 right now :obama:

Cole ain't anything to write home about lyrically but I enjoyed a few songs on this.

The production is a step up from Born Sinner, but Cole himself is average to me :ehh:

When he called out Em/Macklemore/Iggy/Elvis :whoo:

...but he did that backtracking shyt right after :skip:
