Then dont.
Have you seen the thread?how can somebody come up with this much of a critique of an album that dropped 9 hours ago
Yeah. Its weird. Its like he keeps alluding to "The Fall Off" album and theres more like lyrical exercises on here than actual singles.

I feel like Forest Hills Drive is more layered. Feels more full.dope
forest hill drive is better, but this might top it over time
wasn't feeling his last 2 releases.

Carter 5 had much more substance than this.
I don't understand why when I talk about one artist you guys always go back to my favorite artists like that is supposed to affect me or something LOL
So, Cole really did have a scrap with Puff.
Puff was probably like the club promoter in Atlanta, like, “That boy is going to be a star”

All this did was make me want a new Kendrick Lamar and Drake album.
Cole cool but been ass since 2014.
I'm not a fan of these little baby and future sounding sounds he's making.
I finally like a Cole album.
do I see myself playing it like that ? maybe not, but it's the first Cole album to grab me.
Cam'ron Giles played a big part in that..hearing his voice first was nice perk your ears up, now you have my attention move from Cole.
its a full circle moment too in a way. Cam and Cole both have a hooping connection, Cam and Zeke did, lets say...activities there in Carolina (Zeke's is well known) and J Cole recorded his first mixtape in Jim Jones studio.
album is a nice easy listen. theres no real duds.
good production, good to hear other voices, Cole sounds good but....Cole tricks yall man;
apart from the first joint, the songs that are more of the "show how nice I am" variety don't do much for me. like I said he sounds good but the bars are like "yeah, ok ??" I think it that he's that not good at flexing at his audience. there was one were I felt it sounded like something a fan would say.
but overall, happy enough for it from artist I've struggled with and never really been a fan of.
theres a strong seven songs on here.
Lil Baby is on his bootleg Wayne run. he just sounds great no matter what he's on.
but yeah, speaking of 21..
outside of that Cole verse that tells us that he was p*ssy when younger and he mentions the fight w/ Puff, 21 might have my favorite verse on here.

i feel like this as well, but i've been listening to fhd'14 for a few years now.only gave the new joint 2 spins so far. i'll have to sit with this one for a while to see if it is as layered as fhd'14
it at least seems to have some replay value. like i said, i'm enjoying it so far.
haven't listened to a lot of hip hop so far this year, but this is already one of my faves so far
