Cole been singing
and doesn't chance have a backround singer in that song? obviously the "harmonizing" would be better
I actually prefer sideline story to born sinner.
Warm up is still his best work though
I know he's been "singing", but he def wasn't to the extent that he was on FHD. Is this even debatable?Cole been singing

I've heard every single Cole project, so I'm aware of his content. He wasn't singing on his previous stuff as much as he was on FHD.
Yeah, maybe he likes the collab projects? Dude is funny dude. Dude was on tour and my cousin was the dude supervising that shyt. THe first thing Chance asked him was where the loud was at. He was like....j/k...but for real thoJust cause he not signing don't mean he can't release albums tho
And that's why COLE should get some vocalists in the studio as well. Not denying that he can write a good song, but he hinders the sound of the records when he sings over them. I never understood why people thought it was so great that he didn't have any features on this album, after you hear some of the songs that would have clearly benefited from a vocalist being on them.
It's like Nobody's Perfect from Sideline Story. Yeah he penned the hook, but the song sounds WAY better with Missy doing the hook than if Cole would have gone in there and done it himself I imagine.

First song I ever heard from dude, he was harmonizing.
The second one too.
now you wanna tell me he's "attempting" to be like someone else cause he's harmonizing?
People like it cause its personal. It works better on a personal/emotional level if hes saying the lyrics himself.

Same reason people liked that letterman performance.
and yall wonder why he's selling out stadiums.
Cole is a a solid rapper who I will continue to support but hes yet to put together a memorable album. All 3 albums are okay,with some great songs but thats about it.At this point I dont even know if he is capable of making a great album,let alone a classic.
I want to believe he is,Id like to see him let someone else produce an album for him.

if anything I hear mos def in coles singing
Each of those songs have 2 to 3 verses of rapping, now are you saying those songs and his "singing" on those songs is similar to these?
I'm talking about the structure of his his songs, you're just winding it down to, "he always sung and harmonized"... well he never really had more of that over rapping like he did on this album on songs. Where he would rap like 1 verse and sing a verse and the hooks.
And those old songs are exact examples of why old Cole >>>>>>>>> New Cole
Actually, I understand 100% why he's selling out stadiums.People like it cause its personal. It works better on a personal/emotional level if hes saying the lyrics himself.

He's essentially the Taylor Swift of HipHop where he's made a real personal connection with them. AT this point, his diehard fans will be there for life.
Given the success of FHD, I don't think he has reason to venture outside of his comfort zone. I honestly want the Cole/Kendrick collab to come out, because I feel that would force Cole to come harder with the lyrics.
He's doing the same sing-songy rapping he's always done. Difference now is, in having a larger budget and actually trying to make songs as opposed to just rapping, you get a little bit more of that stuff.
yup, you just sounding like a hater now.
Taylor swift, really?
I said he's singing more on FHD than he has done before, meaning yes he's sang and harmonized before, but not like on FHD on some songs.He's doing the same sing-songy rapping he's always done. Difference now is, in having a larger budget and actually trying to make songs as opposed to just rapping, you get a little bit more of that stuff.
yup, you just sounding like a hater now.

How am I hating with the Taylor Swift comparison?
Cole has made a concerted effort to connect to his fans via other means than the traditional ways of doing things. He's had dollar tours, he's gone to fans graduations, he's had fans come through his childhood home, he's linked up with fans on their lunch breaks to sign autographs... It wasn't a diss, it's why his fans are so "in" to him, the same way Taylor's are all into her.
