    I actually agree with this but thats why I find it weird that Wet Dreamz is my least played on the album. It doesn't have that replay value. I even play Hello more :manny:

    Lmao. I'm not hating on the quality. I like the song, I'm just saying its the only skip on the album. I know I'm not the only one in the thread thinking this.

    Agrred. Even though the reason i really mess with FHD is cause the storytelling and the plot of the album develops so flawlessly I wouldnt mind a bunch of classic tracks thrown into an album, i feel like this type of album would open him up to collaborate with more people too.

    Maybe because it was different from your first experience and it ain't that relateable :idk: I don't skip it, I usually skip St. Tropez and Hello if I'm skipping something. Album is still 8.5 and it probably won't change.

    St. Tropez is very close to be a 10/10 track. Dead serious. I thought it might be filler when the album started settling in but the vibe is incredible.

    Cole on some Lauryn Hill meets Mos Def with a sprinkle of Bob Marley :whew:

    But since we talking about Wet Dreams, that's the perfect example of Cole's strenghts as a rapper and songwriter. Dude made a 3 verse song about losing virginity that 85% of the world can relate to without being corny. His brain was on another level back then. Ain't saying that he still doesn't have it, but the concept is f---ing great, from having elements of humour to being realistic af.

    I think you can make a great album only off those unreleased songs like 'It wont be long' 'song for the ville' 'show me something', even unabomber could make it. Cole was really lost making his debut and searching for a single.

    Oh and he should s---t himself in the foot for letting 'Nothing Lasts Forever' go like that.

    I still have that version of CW:TSS where Nothing Lasts Forever is a bonus with Daddy's Little Girl and Who Dat. Although it ain't official, I've always considered it as a part of the album. I agree tho.
