J. Cole - 2014 Forest Hills Drive (Discussion Thread) *Stream*

[Jimmy ValenTime]

Rapping good but his production always been competent at best

hook are so so - a trey songz ... missy elliot.. Miguel .. K dot.... Corinne Bailey .. hooks (people he done songs with ) could gave a little sonic variety

born sinner better produced .. this is better raps ...

 

[Jimmy ValenTime]

oh shyt he rapped over give up the goods ...

 

[onelastdeath]

:

Drake is better

 

[Romey Rome]

I love everything about this album. Seems like he made an album that's perfectly him. AOTY and I hope he wins a Grammy doing it his way

 

[Darealtwo1]

He album is boring. And the content aint saying nothing as a whole. Rapping about ignorant shyt over soulful beats doesnt make you deep or any better than a lil boosie for example. And i prefer lil boosie to cole anyday. kendrick is better. Drake is better. Nas is better..

not sayin cole is the worst but he is over rated like big krit on here. They both can make decent songs at times or drop a witty line in a verse but their albums are repetitive, uninspired, and boring.

So its just the production you don't like...oh okay. Well the majority of the world does. Just saying

jan 28th

[Da King]

Damn, this album solid as fukk


Only rapper with guts to call out Cacinem

 

[Professor Polo]

Just bought my copy on my lunch break.

 

[blackslash]

my nikka anthony fantano destroyed the album haha

This dude hit the mufcking nail on the head when it comes to how bland and uninteresting Cole is

 

[GhettoNintendo]

Same nikka that said Kanye's topics on racism on MBDTF were "forced" and "unnecessary" then gave MBDTF a 6. :blackcamby:

 

[GhettoNintendo]

To all my nikkas out there living in debt
Cashing minimal checks
Turn on the TV see a nikka Rolex
And fantasize about a life with no stress
I mean this shyt sincerely
And that's a nikka who was once in your shoes
Living with nothin' to lose
I hope one day you hear me
Always gon' be a bigger house somewhere, but nikka feel me
Long as the people in that motherfukker love you dearly
Always gon' be a whip that's better than the the one you got
Always gon' be some clothes that's fresher than the ones you rock
Always gon' be a bytch that's badder out there on the tours
But you ain't never gon' be happy till you love yours


Always gon' be a bigger house somewhere, but nikka feel me
Long as the people in that motherfukker love you dearly
it don't get realer then that b

Finally giving this a spin. Put on rotation. First song that came on was G.O.M.D.

 

[duncanthetall]

im expecting the cole stans will hype this to be AOTY.
just like Sideline story

Breh. You were hating on this shyt like 2 pages in. Why the fukk are you still in here talking about some shyt you dislike?

 

[lakinta]

after living with this album for a week -- walking to class, hitting the gym, eating lunch, etc. -- i gotta say, cole really got one here.

my favorite part of the album is the excerpt of George Bush on Role Modelz and the transition to the next verse.

"Fool me one time, shame on you
Fool me twice, can't put the blame on you,
Fool me three times, fukk the peace sign, load the chopper n' let it rain on you"



thank you cole.
