Born Sinner was disappointing because he sampled a lot of classic beats that he didn’t do justice too. That nikka had the AUDACITY to sample Da Art Of Storytelling and told a wack ass story:scust:


Forbidden Fruit was another one. Classic sample. Lazy execution.


The highs on the album were great (Power Trip/ Mo Money/Let Nas Down/The title track. But the corny shyt was next level bad (What the fukk was Villumimati?!?!)


The best thing that happened regarding that album was him dropping it the same day as Kanye. Because Yeezus was so terrible that it made Born Sinner look like a classic in comparison
Forbidden Fruit was gas flames :gucci:, and Yeezus is not terrible at all man yall just be saying anything

Just my opinion but I thought Born Sinner was generic as fukk. First track really turned me off. You could tell Cole thought that beat was some next level shyt but it's just busy and weak. It's not a BAD album it's just forgettable and was miss #2 in my eyes. Cole got shyt together after that so I don't really dwell on it.

Yeezus is classic and pushed the genre. :yeshrug:
