Albums J. Cole - The Off-Season (Discussion Thread)

[Izanami]

Cole applied pressure to Drake and Kendrick. He leaped frogged them. He’s officially numero uno.


This is the album I envisioned False Prophets and Everybody Dies was the precursor for. It’s a rappers album no filler. No clear flaws off first rip. Might go down as his best. I kinda wish Middle Child was on this it would fit perfect imo.

that applying pressure beat got that 90s NY sound

If it was said that Premo did the beat I wouldn’t blink an eye. shyt was that good.

[King Ming]

Cole produced both Applying Pressure and The Climb Back. Both bangers


Applying Pressure is that NY STREET shyt

Applying pressure a Jake One joint breh

Like Iv been saying, that Kendrick & Cole collab album if it was to ever be made now, is nowhere near as one sided as it was 10 years ago, Cole can fukking RAP

only thing I’m not liking about this album is some of these songs too short, Applying Pressure, Punchin The Clock & 100 Mil all need another verse

 

[Conscious Pilot]

Put an M on your head , now you a Luigi brother now

nikkas can’t see me One on One, that’s Word to Kyla Pratt

 

[Busby]

This album is…damn near….perfection.

Not ONE skip..

for a second, I thought Cam was going to have a verse, but then I remembered J Cole doesn't do rapper collabos

 

[Spidey Man]

Had to run applying pressure back. I can hear the goats spitting on this in 96

 

[JayStarwind]

On first listen

Gotta listen back later on but I've been waiting on Cole to rap like this for a min. That hunger that he had on The Warm Up and FNL is what's been missing and we got a lil bit of it here.

 

[Wandissimo]

95 South his hardest intro.

 

[HiiiPower]

Leg Go My Hand only one verse too

Hunger on Hillside

 

[jensyao]

If you broke and clownin' a millionaire, the joke is on you

damn...J Cole just dissed the whole online commentary community including thecoli

 

[FruitOfTheVale]

lol wtf this is actually good

Never heard a J Cole album I liked. First time for everything I guess

 

[Illuminatos]

Swear to God when I saw the tracklist the first thing I thought was “Thank god this shyt isn’t 30 songs long” and in the first song dude drops a bar about rappers dropping albums with 30 songs.
