    Also sounds like in parts of the album Cole has come to terms that s--- happens in the world and he can't get depressed at every little thing & making music that helps counter acts it

    Riding a wave. It would have been different if Future wasn't the hottest rapper out at the moment.

    How many albums do you guys think Cole will do before he retires? I strangely feel like he'll do 2 more solo albums and then might disappear. Still holding out hope for the K.Dot collab.

    drake x future were and are still the hottest rappers out JT so from what your saying if they dropped it now it would still be riding a wave

    honestly being out of lane and riding wave are both the same thing

    Too good. Anyone else feel like he's using both Biggie and Pac flows in two different layers in the Deja Vu hook?

    Don't even know how people don't see the story behind this album.

    It took me a while to figure it out but I finally got the story behind it and it aligns what you guys said.

    future has never been bigger or hotter than drake, that's ludicrous to think

    WATTBA was the best thing to ever happen to future as a mainstream artist lol

    okay, next listen through... this is officially my favorite project he's done.. not because of the "hits"...not because of the punches and metaphors... not because i rewound the s--- to understand the lines.. ("she only f---s with hymn like a choir in the church -- good god!)... but because the man is telling a story that connects to so many people in this world. a story that is near and dear to him. he's painting a picture for the world....


    I don't think he cares how this sells, i don't think he does a major tour for this. I think this is something he just had to do and its quite beautiful.

    Just because drake helped elevate future'a status doesn't mean Drake didn't ride futures wave on WATTBA and I'm a drake fan. You can't tell me that wasn't a Future ft. Drake project.
