    Yeah, Cole can't really tour off this album. He's toured FHD records to death and this album only got like 3-4 songs that he can use for tour.

    I'm saying

    the s--- he playing on the bass at 15 sounds real smooth too, especially when they bring in all the elements like the guitar at 16:10 ... sounds like that cud make a real nice tune

    Ye.. hes saving s--- for the collab or for another solo project. At this point tho im pretty sure its the collab. Theres guaranteed fire that he left off this project solely cause it didnt "fit" the concept.

    Does the complete opposite for me. I understand the reasoning behind the album, so I am able to appreciate the methods behind the madness. Im happy while listening.

    I pretty much agree with everything you said, all that is fair, and the "execution" of folding clothes can be debated as well, the problem I have with the review is this; when it comes to Folding Clothes for instance he's not necessarily talking about how the song could have been executed better but instead harping on how "Cole himself" shouldn't see himself as some "great guy" because he's doing something millions of other men do.. except the song isn't really about or coming from Cole, and missing that shows a general lack of understanding about the album. Those are the kinds of things I'm talking about. Not that Cole or this album is "crazy deep and complex" or that any of this is hard to get. It just seems like people like this are so quick to skim through one time and put up a review that their reviews have clear holes on them.

    BRO ... how can you not see the beauty in a song like She's Mine Part 2 :lawd:

    Part 1 as well, but n----- this dude just had a daughter ... do n----s not understand this??

    "cause now you're here, and i just wanna be, right by your side
    on any night that you'll be crying baby il dry your eyes"

    its crazy cause for some inexplicable reason i liked she's mine part 1 better at first sonically, but now i just can't get over she's mine part 2

    :wow5:

    top 1 cole doa

    its crazy how much s--- has worked out in coles career tho

    Cole World was mediocre but it sold and he needed that

    Born Sinner still pretty nice to me but the takeaway is he got that s--- off his chest and made let bas down which resulted in made bas proud and all in all he was able to move forward with his career with less weight on his shoulders

    2014 FHD they always say how the timing was perfect for that with dropping it right at the end of the year almost not making it and then going double platinum with no features and it being by far his biggest album and getting him to a level we never thought he would get to

    4 Your Eyez Only he makes an album about a street guy for his daughter and then ends up having a daughter himself right before the album drops ...

    now it all sets up perfectly to drop the kendrick collab in the first half of 2017 and potentially drop the greatest album of all time across all musical genres in all of human history :kobe:

    Same. I feel pretty happy listening to it too. I think it just has different effects on people.

    thats just it, to me its very different from that song in particular

    only one is a good song i really like it myself but if you really listen you don't really feel the emotion ... its just mainly autotune ... its essentially a pop song you can tell what kanye was trying to do

    like glory by jay-z is good also but he just rapping

    She Mines part 2 you can't say you don't feel the emotion, its nothing but emotion ... you can't deny you hear it in his voice for every moment in the song and the instrumentation just takes it to a whole other level

    thats why i say i hope over time it gets its deserved respect
