    For Cole's next LP, I'd like for him not to refer to women as b------s, hoes, or any other derogatory terms.

    I feel ya on that but maybe Cole should change up his subject matter to portray women in a more positive light. I'd like to see him get deeper without having to use expletives as lyrical fillers. That's too easy to do.

    He has. Gimme lyrics like knock the hustle mixed with the high points from FHD, and better production and he'll have his Magnus opus.

    Do you think its crazy that his lyrics have become more simple and his flow more fluid but now he has more success.

    Like he kinda had to dumb it down a bit to get more shine.... IDK if that makes sense.

    I'm not Black, but if this is his way of reaching out to the Black community....

    Nah that's not crazy at all. I love FHD but he promoted it like it was an album that he didn't care about what radio and mainstream thinks. When I listen to the album it seems like the opposite to me.
    Also, I just threw subs in the whip and Cole's production just aint hittling like it's supposed to. Even KRIT's mixtape hits harder.

    Yeah, he said he did that on purpose. He didn't want to make it super loud and wanted it not to Knock like radio hits and s---. I don't know where the interview is... think it was the Combat Jack show... but he did it on purpose.

    BUT... the new KRIT tape is fire man. My favorite track is Party Tonight... but the whole tape bumps.

    I'll just say this, I'm black and this doesn't appeal to me. This is a slap in the face to me. Using hip hop to get my attention is degrading. Ideals on policies and genuineness will get my vote not some lame a--- song manufactured to reach out to a particular demographic. Then again, I'm only one dickhead out of millions of African Americans.

    BAD LOOK for the boy.

    That's what I'm saying. I've said it for years... Hip-hop runs my life. I see things through a hip-hop lends on many things... at times, I resonate with what is essentially Black Culture. I feel like the whole world does. I know that being Latino means that I come from a different "community" but I see similar issues and situations for most minorities.

    If I as a Lover of Hip-hop see this as a cheap plug, I think that as an intelligent human being you can see the same thing. Our country is so f----- on party politics that some idiot in Carson's circle told him this would appeal to Black voters. SMH... could'nt be further from the truth. IMO...
