    Since we're reminiscing can we talk about the GOATNESS of Return of Simba.
    This track is absolutely flawless. Sampled 3 different tracks to perfection, and not a single bar is not A1.
    That is easily Cole's lyrical peak (with Dead Presidents II being a very close second).

    Like how many dope punchlines can you fit in one song... might as well quote the whole song.

    Cause this the summer that our life change
    Hov asked me, “Is you ready for it?”
    I looked around at all his nice things
    Told him, “n-----, you already know it”
    :wow5:



    "This next s--- is in no way to boast
    But my city love breakfast, ’cause n----s had toast early
    Coach had us doin’ jumpin’ jacks
    Then sent us to the water fountain after runnin’ laps
    My n----- went and grabbed his bookbag, threw it on his back
    And brought it to me just to show me he was f---in’ strapped
    We was twelve years old, how was we to know better?
    I analyzed his life and see that he was so set up"

    :weebey:


    Yeah, I stunt, but I’m a li’l more realer
    When it come from the heart, don’t it feel mo’ iller?

    Watch my flow go bananas, I’m a li’l gorilla
    So pardon me, man, y’all gon’ have to pardon me
    They say I rep that ‘Ville too much, but that s--- just a part of me
    It’s flowin’ out through my arteries, who hard as me? You JV, I’m varsity
    No field trip, ain’t hard to see, this real s---, you R&B
    Seen a movie wit’ yo’ b---- in it, and listen it, was starrin’ me
    [​IMG]

    And some food for thought, I can serve a plate
    With dessert to take, with dessert to take
    Yeah, I heard the hate, but the wait is f---in’ over
    It’s like I’m f---in’ Oprah, well worth the wait

    :woodson:


    Cause I only made classics, now what that take? Timing

    Cole under pressure, what that make? Diamonds
    :banderas:

    Word 'round town is you locked down
    Some older n----s snatched you up gave you a rock now
    d---, hey could it be, she like “if you was me you wouldn’t wait for me
    Living fast you wouldn’t mash the brakes for me”
    Big city slicker n----- on a higher track
    Bigger now but when she send a letter always write her back
    And time revealed, she feels that she settled too soon
    While she see me go for mines and she admire that
    We speak about time as if we could just buy it back
    If only it was that simple, d--- I miss you, can I holla at you?

    @Kold by far my favorite Cole track ever, everything about it is :emoji_fire::emoji_fire::emoji_fire: made me believe someday he will reach the top of hip-hop's Mt. Everest even with the stiff competition and doubters.

    I think Hov told Cole to cut it or i am wrong?

    I think Cole can tackle a FNL no concept Type of album even now based on those funkflex freestyles. :wow::feedme:

    Don't remember what happened exactly, but you could be right. I strongly believe Cole wrote those verses just for sake of that radio appearance which is funny af cause they're better than most of Born Sinner.

    FNL is 9.5/10 after listening 5000+ like @Bliss said. The epitome of a classic.

    Another classic track. I remember waking up on the Friday 21th, going on JCN and seeing Cole dropped this after months of starving. I had basketball scheduled for 11AM every friday as a part of my college program and the apocalypse was supposed to happen at 12AM. I literally played that s--- from 8AM til I arrived at the gym and not giving a f--- about anything in the world.

    Earthquakes and tsunamis and hurricanes
    You meaner than Katrina baby I gotta know your name
    Before this thing is over this might be the last song
    For the man upstairs put the lights on and shut this party dooooooownnnnn

    Those memories :wow5:

    Another 19,999 in sales for Coley Cole. He hasn't dipped off much the past few weeks.

    I'd start promoting more soon, though. Valentine's Day!!

    You guys underrate BS. That's my favorite Cole project, sounds mad cohesive and it feels more like an album rather than a collection of songs like FHD. Tracks are just so perfect to me, Rich Niggaz, Powrr Trip, LotS, Is She Gon Pop.... :sad2:

    Man, I remember when Cole FINALLY ended his drought (which felt like forever) by releasing The Cure.

    "How many Kanye beats do a n----- gotta murder?!"

    Is She Gon Pop is too underrated.

    So much knowledge.

    "I swear if n----s put half of what they put in chasin a---, into a craft by now you'd be famous and rich"
    I see this all the time...

    A lot of people dont rock with BS also because of their expectations. Putting out BS after those top tier TY tapes was a mistake. Like ive noticed the people that rock with Born Sinner the most are "casual" cole fans.
