    So some of you cats feel this is better than GKMC? I'll have to check this out but that is some hype to live up to.

    As someone that's not a Cole fan I'll be back with my non biased opinion.

    THIS ALBUM ISN'T ASS...BUT ITS ? ...CRAZY SOFT....
    I PROMISE ALL OF YOU THAT YOU WILL NOT LISTEN TO THIS ALBUM IN A YEAR...
    ? RAPPING ABOUT LOSING THEIR VIRGINITY & ? FROM BACK IN THE DAY
    AIN'T YOU 30 FAM? GROW UP...

    It's a concept album. Like a time line of his life. From his adolescence to present day.

    From that perspective it makes sense.

    Another ? who didn't get the concept of the album. It's his adoloscent years (virginity, chasing a girl), his teen years of moving to NY (Tale of two citiez) and his adult years when he found success and it's not what he thought it would be (Apparently,etc).


    That's like saying why was Kendrick rapping about stealing video games out of someones house and ? Sharane on GKMC. lol

    Well i definitely understand the concept of the album and it was dope. I liked the album alot it is his best album.

    But its the fact he seems to keep making songs on similar topics on all 3 albums now. He needs to grow.

    In the review thread, YoungGoldie's review hit it on the head. Listening to Cole you wouldn't think hes about to be 30.

    I'm interested to see where he goes from here, we pretty much have the full story of his upbringing at this point.

    All rappers rap about the same ? or have a topic. You can only rap about your experiences right?

    I was hoping with his freedom he had on this album that he would go more heavy on the context of the album.

    I wanted more of what he did on Be Free. I remember him popping up in Ferguson outa nowhere right after Browns death. I want him to talk about the issues at hand in the US.

    If seen Coles interviews and speeches at colleges on YouTube over the past years and i know hes deep and very smart. His music has much more potential.

    But i understand he had a concept for the album and i respect that... maybe his next album.

    Dont get it twisted tho, i think the album is dope
