    To be completely fair to kenny though, albums were in every store by friday. Thats 3 whole days of sales missed. I get that they were trying to counter the inevitable leak with an official release but they dropped the ball

    They were already in some stores though they were just confirmed in all stores 3 days after. And also he got an extra day of sales. And if he was drake level like y'all were saying he still should be doing great numbers even if it was just digital available.

    I picture Dale rolling up in a 6 horse carriage at the bonfire, drive-by-shooting the horsemen and saving Cole and the slaves.
    Then Dale peels out at the end of the video and rides away from the camera, and there's a big "88" on the back of the carriage with the Mountain Dew logo underneath it.

    This GOMD video is crazy, I wrote up a little interpretation on YouTube.

    My quick interpretation: This whole video represents J. Cole's career as a rapper. At first, he enters the white man's house and takes a role as his servant. This represents him entering the rap scene and now being a part of the "system". As time goes by, the slaves outside are angered by his choice to stay committed to that role, but little did they know that Cole is only there in order to break into the cabinet for guns to provide them with. This whole scene represents when Cole put out his first album and compromised his inherent sound by releasing songs like "Work Out", which angered a lot of his core fans, much like the slaves. Although Cole knew he was there to "break into the cabinet for the guns", the oblivious fans had no more trust left for him. But as time progresses and his fans slowly lose hope in him, he comes back with 2014 Forest Hills Drive (the guns) which finally regains all of their trust.

    It can never replace what JB would have had to say though...
