Really fukking with this, album is really cohesive and coles rapping his ass off. Beats have stepped it up too. Not one skippable track.

That's my Cole :blessed:

Looks like Cole's gonna get Rick Ross'd. Which is a shame cause they're making it sound like Cole called Em whack when he didn't.

all he gotta do is not go to detroit tour everywhere but there

have a no fly zone on one of the shyttiest cities in america bruh

I disagree with the general sentiment in here that
he hasn't released GREAT stuff since Friday Night Lights.

Born Sinner KNOCKS and it features a much more mature J. Cole
on the production front. The Sideline Story is cool too but it was just
a "Good" release. I'm listening to the album right now and that marks
another good release for 2014, but I disagree that it's the first good release
he's had in a while. If anything to me, it's just another good release in a string
of good releases.

Forest Hills Drive
Cadillactica
PRhyme
A Better Tomorrow
36 Seasons
Run The Jewelz 2
and that's just a COUPLE of the release from the latter half of 2014,
without taking into account the entire year.
:laugh: @ "There's no good music coming out in Hip Hop :sadcam: ".

Its hard to place albums like this.

Its just kinda...vanilla.

You know Cole, but this is cole at or near his best.

it wavers between 7.5-8 for me.
There's an immense irony in a poster who openly champions an artist
who personifies "vanilla" and "safe" calling J. Cole "safe". :laugh:
