    fhd is not that good, calm down everybody. His previously released mediocre projects make it seem that way but in reality its nothing special. It's easily his best album but its good not great. If anything its his weakest album in terms lyricism in his whole discography.

    Yea ur right about that, but just about everything else improved.

    I'm thinking he finds that balance on his next album. And is hopefully able to carry it for 10+ songs

    My only wish was that St tropez and hello weren't on there, also I'm not a fan of long a--- outros. Last call was cool because he absolutely murdered the song for the first 3-4 minutes, but note to self, I dunno man.

    100% on the lyricism. But that's your opinion on the rest. A lot of people outside of here prefer Born Sinner to this album. Can't we just love it for what it is?

    This is probably Cole's first album that the masses can really relate to which is why it's doing so well. All his albums have been personal but he literally went back home with this one. I personally rate born sinner more than fhd (cue people on here to stop reading lol) partly cos I can understand and connect with his mindset flowing through the album and I can still bump it front to back without skipping.

    crazy how wet dreamz is low-key one of coles best b-----r beats

    that s--- bumps like crazy in the whip

    the song grew on me like crazy but i still think he cuda made a better overall song with that beat

    the chorus is mad catchy too tho we all know that so i wudnt really want that changed either

    and then again I'm still shocked at how good the reception for it is especially at the shows so wanting the song concept changed is really just something personal i guess

    If the Cole/Kendrick collab album isn't being worked on during this window that they both aren't on tour/heavy into making their own albums, then it will never happen.

    Tbh Kendrick has a perfect discog and there's no way this collab drops till he's 10000000% satisfied with it. If they kept those 12 songs they did way back and just re did them, I'd say we get that album soon. If they started from scratch then :idk:
