    Finally listened to this album and it's undeniable classsic and best rap album of the year period!

    This album really lost its replay value for me fast. I haven't listened to it since late December.

    Good album. But it hasn't got many great songs that would give it better replay value.

    Let's all remember that J Cole was puttin out album quality mixtapes from the beginning and its dope to see him drop a surprise album with no features and still do well without Jay Z..only a few real emcees can actually do that...All the hard work paid off

    Haven't listened to FHD in forever and holy s--- this album is being slept on. Definitely a classic. If you haven't listened to this you need too! Every song is great.

    After conclusive listening after it settling in I think the final score would be a 7.8/10.

    Tickets for the tour went on sale today, but there's no Toronto announcement yet. I'm thinking that Cole & Sean are part one of OVO, because there's no date set for Sunday August 2nd, which would be the first day of OVO. That would be pretty amazing and would definitely solidify me going.

    Isn'ts the song 03'Adolenscence some sort of plagiarism? The intro looks very similar to the song 'Who are you', from Mr.Probz.

    But is it allowed to make a song on a album so familiar with an other song?

    Love this album and cole. After listening to Kendricks tape I gotta say both are undeniably great. I need to give a spins after bumping Kendricks tape the other day. I will say this as of now kendrick >>> as great as cole is kendrick is just on another level lyrically that's not to knock cole because very few people can match kendrick

    that's what they sampled. If they both cleared it with the respective owners, everyone's legal here.

    Kendrick is an impressive artist and lyricist, but Cole is more relatable and easier on my ears. I just connect with Cole's music more.
