    What I got from this album is he is paranoid he will die soon. He been talking about this since Jermaine Interlude earlier this year. Gotta be a unpleasant feeling to feel that. Hopefully it's not true

    On first listen this album serves its purpose. Which is to make a album his album and expand on his growth. My only vice was more of a political song from him. Overall great emotional album from first listen, can't even imagine how afraid I'll be whenever I get my first child.

    pretty much agree with this, the growth is there but not enough, would have definitely like to have seen him taking on some serious issues with what's been going on over there recently.

    Kinda underwhelmed with this on first listen, will probably grow on me but it isn't seeing FHD, just lacking the couple of standout tracks that album had....'change' is quality though.

    Ab-souls album impressed me a lot more, dude kept on coming with the bars like a man possessed.

    ? I FORGOT ABOUT SOUL ALBUM

    They better album by the way.

    Almond milk good af. That vanilla or the chocolate milk with some donuts. ? !

    One of the closest things to perfection

    It's the only type of milk my 2 year old will drink, so naturally my wife and I drink it when we run outta our milk. We just had the chocolate milk for the first time and that ? is delicious.

    Curious....is his deal almost up with his label???

    Just asking because this album seems like something he put out just to meet his album obligations in his contact....I think he might have had ? on the ropes with last weeks single....but now that the album dropped I think ? gonna off the ropes with some shots at 'Folding Clothes Cole'

    He put it out on his own label, with Roc Nation as his exclusive distributor (UMG is RN's exclusive distributor), so technically, he's independent...

    It's ok. Still got complaints about the production.

    Yep sonically it's disappointing...even the singing ain't working

    Concept is cool...but it lacks emotion behind it

    Distribution... Interscope was already Dreamville's distribution home so it'd make since to join the fold, but this case is different as Interscope has no ownership of this album unlike Bas and the other dude (Omen's project was completely indie)... Of course this is speculation but I'm going off of the copyrights and other telltale signs.

    It's not the production, it's him. Cole is lyricist more than he is an entertainer, ala Nas. Nas beats don't make him, he makes his music just like Cole makes his. However u wanna take that....all facts.

    :joy: I didn't mean to compare him like that but it's the easiest way for this board to comprehend cause a lot of ppl dnt listen to Nas cause of his production(or so they say).

    I feel u... But even with Nas bs beats at times he still was a grade A lyracist with goat story telling. Cole is avg at times with lyrics and used hype to trick me lol. if we gonna compare to Nas Illmatic-Stillmatic had good production. And Nas aint sing... lol

    Ville mentality an underrated favorite so far

    I feel like she's mine pt2 and Neighbors are from Cole's perspective so it's not just his homie perspective throughout

    Problem is nas and others are so nice that you don't notice the bad beats as much....I didn't notice the production on born sinner or fhd

    But he doesn't carry this album like he did those and the beats don't increase the enjoyability at all

    2nd verse when he raps as his HS friend maybe it gave him the idea to make a whole project around that character

    Thats my theory

    Also in 3 wishes

    https://youtu.be/5TMtTtCZn9M

    He also raps about a similar character on the 2nd verse of "hold it down" from The Warm Up
