    This was a great read. I was thinking the same thing when I was listening to the tape this morning.

    I do feel like Groups like this will never work. I mean look at TDE when is the last time we heard new music from Q? Ab-soul is one of my favorite rappers and I never get projects from him.

    I think that label groups like this are not the best, they always exclude someone... I don't see us getting another Omen project anytime soon... and it's a shame cause EE was a solid project.. no jokes.

    of course i had to run through FHD today... album is still fire. The second half is def noticeably weaker (cuz the first half is flawless imo) but it's cool cuz they're all tracks to vibe out to. One thing you can't say about Cole is that all his projects sound the same. I'm expecting him to get better on the next one

    Out of everybody on Dreamville, other than Cole, I think Bas the only one that got the potential to make a hit.

    Lit
    Fiji Water in My Iron
    Night Job

    Bas got a hit in him, just got to know how to go about making the song a hit on the charts.

    This is probably the first album Cole has made and looked back a year later with no regrets.

    Cilvia Demo is alot like Acid Rap, a cult classic that didn't need a follow-up for a couple years

    he doesn't really say much but i have to say i think the decision to not make it a double album was actually a good one ... the fans like us would have loved it but i feel like theres no way u wudnt have had people saying theres some filler and that it shud be cut down to one disc ... i still wonder if theres some great songs that had to be cut but at the same time FHD is just so concise that u can't even be mad

    that's why maybe next album cole shudnt have a theme just the best songs he has available at the time, two albums in a row he had a theme and probably had to cut some great songs

    If you noticed, remember when they did the video for the intro? It was him riding his bike. That was just the cameraman following him one day. - Mez
