    All this just makes me wanna go back to The Off-Season. Great album and I haven’t heard it in a while. Hopefully It’s A Boy is more similar to The Off-Season.

    This shouldn't have been a double album. Rarely has anyone besides Biggie put out a classic like that. This is better than GNX though since we want to do the Kendrick Cole comparison. That's not saying much though

    I’m happy to talk s--- about TPAB and Mr. Morale any day. :emoji_upside_down:

    Cole is talented enough and capable of a masterpiece like GKMC. I want that for him. I wish he wanted it for himself as well.

    Y'all just repeating what ya heard in pods. Biggie and PAC both have several skips on their double albums, especially 2pac and he's my fav artist of all time. This has about the same AMT of skips, it is too early to call it anything like a classic or up there with those two albums, but don't pretend like there ain't any skips on those.

    If this was only one disc we'd lose good songs. Bonus tracks could be dropped but this is a tight package and the theme of each carry their discs 29 and 39.
