    Oh ya? So have you realised the album is conceptual and he is telling a story from the perspective of one of his dead homeboys from back in the ville to his daughter that he left behind? You got all that on the surface?

    Nah FHD is better forsure. This might even be better idk yet. Born Sinner gets a lot of hate so I'm glad to see someone likes it but there's quite a bit of filler. If you're excluding FNL and the TWU because they're mixtapes that's understandable, but they're easily his best projects.

    There's no way Born Sinner is J Coles best album..
    20+ tracks and J.Cole don't really do well together

    Don't get me wrong I really like it I'm just saying it ain't his best. That's cool if you feel that way tho. Speaks more about how good Cole is than anything. Kinda like the argument you hear over Kanye's best. It's a good thing.

    At the moment FHD vs 4YEO is like Take Care vs nWTS one is just a more compacted version both very equal albums overall and hard to really choose one over the other. Definitely his best two albums. His albums have gone up in standards as his career goes he's slowly gotten back to his mixtape self. Admitting the fame really just messed him up a lil bit but now his head is right the music is coming better. It's like he is a less hungry and bitter version of his mixtape self. More spiritual . More calmed

    Ight Change might be the best song so far. Once again, on his FNL s---. Sounds young and hungry.

    Tbh we lucky he spitting as much as he does on this album. I mean look at the Gambino tragedy. I was scared Cole might come out post BlackLivesMatter and make a full on Be Free type album.
