    That’s a top 5 song in my opinion. It’s a slow burner but once he starts that second verse it’s very very good

    Friends
    Once an addict
    Kevin's heart
    Motiv8

    Jesus just listening to this album makes me never wanna step foot into the field of music

    I couldn't keep up
    That's the good s--- I WANT to hear tho
    It's challenging to listeners

    And most of all this album is gonna be challangeing our favorite rappers and theirs
    Hip Hop is about inspiring and its art and I love that 1985 was more of a "come with me to the dark side"
    Rather than get outta here if you not gonna try to contribute

    Cause it's always been my humble opinion that that lil b---- lil pumps (or the people in his team) got some talent beneath his bs

    Cole

    thoughts after 10-15 spins:
    - cole's flow is ridiculous, he makes it look way toooo easy
    - favorites at the moment are Window Pain, Kevin's Heart & Friends
    - really cool to see the impact that this project is having straight away
    - the production on this is probably the most basic on any Cole project, but it's exactly what it needs to be so no complaints.
    - i think this might rank amongst FHD for his most popular album, but it's way too soon for me to rank.
    - i can't believe that Cole may legit have a top 5 single, I remember JCN getting gassed when Work Out made top 20.

    Loving this album so much.
    ATM, Window Pain, Brackets and 1985 are looking to be my favorites but everything flows so smooth.

    And please tell me has any other rapper had the intro to their next album on an album? Lol idk ...

    How do I stream Cole's album to make the streams count? And if I listen on shuffle does it count as album or single streams

    That's what it's looking like, more people are saying it as we listen more. The more I listen, the more I discover little details and just how good this project is. Honestly, my first Cole album that I don't skip any tracks because no song on here is "bad." I actually think this album is deeper than it seems to be. It's his best combo of storytelling, just rapping, and a concept maintained throughout an album by Cole imo. And this album's intro doesn't get enough credit for setting up the rest of the album. The length of the album is also perfect imo.
