    Folding Clothes kind of has that Andre 3000 feel to it

    i think this s--- kinda starting to grow on me y'all

    i could kind of see it becoming a hit with a video of cole just running around his house sliding on the wood floor in his white socks and folding clothes

    lmaoooooooooo :drakelaugh2:

    srs tho :ehh:

    This is easily the most inspired Cole has ever been. We've heard him hungry but his pen game so dope on this s---.

    the thing is folding clothes doesn't even really fit with the concept tho if you really think about it ...

    it more fits with the concept for cole, deciding to be cool with his fame and just fold clothes

    but in terms of being from the perspective of the guy who's seeing premonitions of his death ??

    that i don't really know about lol

    Its a trap/street n----- forcing himself to act like the good husband that does s--- around the house. Fits perfectly imo.

    true true ye i could see that

    just the fact that he has had premonitions of his death that throws me off

    all these songs that are very existential and "I'm scared of death" "I'm not scared of death anymore" and then folding clothes ...

    i guess thats kinda the point tho to just be present in each moment no matter what

    just not a great song tho lol

    My final thoughts for now ...

    i really do like that cole finally did a true concept album

    but n----- you gota release them s----s more, u in the prime of ur career ...

    now is the time where he should be releasing like a bunch of different concept albums

    we've always said storytelling is his best strength which he wasn't using to its full potential .. start exploring more stories and concepts ... why the h--- not ??

    album every 6 months for the next couple years

    It's a nice detail, the first songs begins with a tape recorder starts playing, and the last songs ends with the tape recorder stopping.

    I love the Ville Mentality hook

    thats the type of s--- that shows coles growth ... using his voice in different ways, not even just singing but actually experimenting with different s--- in terms of singing

    Yeah was just about to say. I think it's actually like those old school film players that they use on projectors. Fits in with the theory that he's telling the story of someone else
