    Mix of both I think. I’ve said before how he should’ve handled the “beef.” Release MDL as a 7 cut EP. No 7 min Drill at all. No cancel culture and trans bars. Then fall back, let his music and skills speak for itself. Let Kendrick and Drake tear each other apart. Cole comes out clean. Unfortunately hipster dweebs rule the internet and control the narrative on Twitter and that hurts Cole.

    And Dreamville gotta promote more all around. Idk what their marketing budget is but Top Dawg and whatever machine is behind Kendrick spend way more $$ to promote

    Here's a fun question.

    What song(s) on TOS do you think TFO will be the most like?

    Hard to answer cause I have no idea on what the fall off will be on.. is it going to be introspective or what? He said he wanna show his skills, but I don’t feel like that is what a last album should sound like lol. I wanna hear some close, hunger on hillside , the climb back type s--- , but the way he describe the fall off it seem like it’s on some might delete later type s---. . I just hope to hear some introspective s---, him saying something, cause as dope as might delete later was, won’t much of that on there other than Trae the truth in Ibiza and pricey .

    I wanna hear some CLOSE type s---, flexing his skill and saying something. I feel like cole still got stories to tell, some s--- majority the fans don’t know. I feel like cole be dropping lil nuggets in his music, on some if you know , you know type s---.. like the lyric I mentioned the other day from stealth mode , majority of the fans do not know what or who he was referring to, only reason I know is because I randomly ran across some s---. That whole s--- is a story to tell and lesson in it self he can go into detail about.

    I'm with you 100%. I was gonna say Close too! And Let Go My Hand too.

    But fr I think it's gonna sound more like amari and price is the devil.

    I think TFO needs to be more 2014FHD than TOS. He needs for TFO to be impactful and not fadeaway quickly

    Agreed. I just say off season because it was recorded in the same period.

    Close is so good. Storytelling, emotion, and wordplay.

    Yep.. whole song is one rhyme scheme , tying every thing back to CLOSE. and he ain’t go off topic, that s--- take some skill to do . Your mind got to be on a whole different level to sit and write some s--- like that and make it all one rhyme scheme

    It’s just played out and lazy. Nobody famous truly gets cancelled for jokes or saying “controversial” things. Only if you r---, physically abuse or murder someone

    I saw a dope freestyle from her on genius open mic, that was hard, but havent really checked out her music, from the snippets I heard she sounded like a female Tyler. I don't listen to female rappers because of the content thats mostly unlistenable for me.

    What female rapper would fit on Dreamville? I could only think about Rapsody

    she better than Tyler to me.. seen a few interviews, she said she was influenced by him, I can hear it in like the beat selections and hooks, but flow wise, and rap wise she better than that n-----.. she a lil weird, I can tell she was a odd future fan coming up lol. , but she got a few decent cuts on her latest mixtape..

    And I’m saying they should sign an unknown young female rapper, I know it’s some dope ones out there for sure. At one time I felt dreezy could’ve fit, but she got her own thing going. I think she signed directly to interscope. Remember she was on ROTD 3??? Dreezy dope

    I just looked, dreezy ain’t dropped no project since 2019.. she would actually be dope on dreamville, plus she a cole fan and she already got a relationship with the label.. plus she already on interscope, all they got to do is put her on dreamville , it’ll create a lil buzz for her, cause it seem like interscope got her shelved..

    In a perfect scenario, Dreezy, cordae and morray would be on dreamville, they all fit imo, and all already got relationships with dreamville and cole.. cause all 3 kinda stagnant right now, dreamville kinda stagnant, that’ll create some buzz for them and the label.. I know it ain’t happening, but that’ll be a dope scenario

    Would y’all want ROTD4?

    Or is there enough Dreamville group projects? They also did D Day and Creed 3…both different and good in their own way.
