    I'd like us all to pause from this Kenny and Bassy hype for a quick PSA:

    Make sure you do something live this weekend, but make sure you don't do too much.

    Don't think Cole is interested in dropping an album without songs aimed at the mainstream audience (like THTR for example). It sucks from a listening standpoint imo but it's also those songs that's made him rich so can't really be too mad at him

    you just mean like rapping/lyrics wise tho? because songs like january 28th, 03 adolescence, tale of 2 cities, fire squad ... aren't really for the mainstream ... especially if you compare them to work out, can't get enough ...

    or do you mean experimentally like with a new sound ... because in that case watch out for the reggae album :hehehe:

    no, those songs aren't mainstream at all. I mean an album without songs like Apparently, GOMD, and No Role Modelz. Not that these are wack songs or anything but I think they're def aimed to be played on the radio and get him more mainstream attention.

    i dunno if he was really chasing mainstream attention he woulda pushed no role models as a single and wouldent have put out the GOMD video that he put out i feel like those songs came naturally i dunno i think its just good songwriting tbh and they ended up sounding radio friendly

    You're one individual. This thread is comprised of a variegated bunch from different backgrounds. ****** is taboo on this forum or any other social media. It won't be tolerated. It's just crass. You could've used n-----.
