    not really much to say for now in terms of theories lol, for once cole did an album that has a concept that the general public can grasp and not something i gota reach through the clouds for lmaoo

    i do find it interesting though how his rapping from another perspective yet we find out he might have just had a daughter himself :khaled: ... he definitely drew upon that for the emotion in she's mine

    my thoughts on the actual music ...

    -while we on she's mine, that s----s dope as h---, both parts, definitely a key for the album
    -for whom the bell tolls is dope, especially second listen when you realize he's not rapping from his own perspective but as the guy who's seeing premonitions ... u all see it like that too right lol?
    -Change is amazing, one of coles best songs off top already imo
    -4 your eyez only as well of course
    -I like ville mentality, definitely worthy to be on the album
    -Neighbours is really dope and sounds really nice coming after change
    -of course folding clothes is extremely suspect its a decent song but why'd he have to put that s--- on a 10 song album, I'm sure he could have made a better song serving the same purpose of that concept
    -I like deja vu but i can't get over exchange, i heard that song too many times, maybe i will get over it at some point
    -Immortal is good but not great, I'm not sure I'm fully on board with that being the lead off song after the intro

    having problems with 3 songs out of ten (technically 9, she's mine 2 parts) is not great if were being honest ... this is the new, honest me lol, no more f---ing around thats what cole gets when he releases music once every 2 years ... but overall its a good release curious to see how the overall reception and sales will look like

    OVERALL: definitely a cool concept and he did a good job keeping a consistent, relatively unique sound throughout without it getting boring ... the singing is dope he definitely took another step advancing as an artist ... no reggae tho? maybe next album :khaled:

    still want to know what the h--- "this february bet s--- get scary" was and if he will take another 2 years off cause if were being honest this album definitely doesn't afford him another 2 years off lol ... hopefully thats the realization he came to like it sounds like in that "Eyez" documentary video ... maybe we get another release early 2017, lets hope

    their sounds are becoming more and more congruent ...

    Ari Lennox was basically a feature on change. Cole should've gave bae her feature credit, instead of uncredited credits
