    That was the only part I didn't like tbh. Music has no color boundaries.

    Word I think he was talking more about the culture though.

    Guess I'm biased cause I'm white and surround myself with black culture.

    I interpreted this the same as you. It just had a hint of hypocrisy in my opinion (since he talks about black stereotypes in a later track). I'm sure that's not what he meant but it came off that way.

    It's cool but I don't think Em will say something about it. That whole verse is incredible, by the way. That Iggy line >>>

    was so hyped for this album. finally got to listen to it today and i gotta say im extremely disappointed. very very average album by cole. only thought 3 songs were dope. wet dreamz, fire squad and no role modelz. the rest of the tracks are boring and forgettable, and some are just wack like hello.

    s--- album, gonna be a recycle bin classic

    Compared to my first listens with 'cw:ss' and 'bs' this tops both. On par with mixtape Cole. Only let down was note to self.

    Only listened once so far, but I'm liking the production a lot. It doesn't strike me as an album that I'm going to keep revisiting just because Cole can get a bit boring on his own, but I suppose we'll have to see on repeat listens.

    I have a friend who is a huge J cole fan, and he said he was very disappointed in the new album. He hated how it had no features and he said cole sang too much on the album. I liked Born Sinner but i'll pass on this album.
