As much as I loved Coles first 3 mixtapes, they aren't classics lol.... I mean just imagining those mixtapes being bunched with projects like Illmatic, Reasonable Doubt, The Eminem Show, The College Dropout etc. doesn't look right at all lol

Dont try to bring bring peace and logic into this s---, I'm out for blood.

You pretty much nailed it. I've been a Cole fan since his mixtapes days and literally he's shown minimal growth and it's really turned me off from him. I mean the fact that Wet Dreamz was from a recording session for one of his mixtapes (or at least that's what I read) and yet here he is slapping it on his 3rd studio album says it all. It's like he's scared to venture out of his comfort zone or something.

Ranked well above Rashida Jones

Yeah that gets out of hand lol in general I hate comparing any new releases to monuments like the ones you listed for instance. I'm trying to avoid using "I relate heavily to this" since that can cloud objectivity and whatnot, FNL brings back a ton of nostalgia for instance & FHD came out just as I finished college. Different vibes and time setting with hip-hop essentials for sure.

but TPAB is easily better than any cole project

well if my review counts, Rashida Jones is sitting a comfortable 4/5 at least if i remember correctly haha

but but he's singing now! his albums have concepts man! like, BS was about sins you see, and FHD actually tells the tells the very complex story of his journey from being a relatively privileged suburban kid to a relatively privileged college student to a relatively privileged (in the sense that he gets a lot of leeway from his fans) rapper!

just check rap genius Jan 28th is actually his birthday!!

Heres my input into the cole and kenny debate.

Firstly fhd sucks. Had no replay or production value. A few good songs on it, but overall, its a piece of s---.

Secondly, tpab >>>>>>>>>>anything cole has done.

That is all.

Jake Hole equals the people's champ!

C'mon you pretentious music snobs! s--- on me and Cole!! Show me the Metacrtic stats!!

 

Mar 24, 2015

two pretty reasonable points tbh

i liked fhd tho

 

Mar 24, 2015

lol Cole isn't in the same league as Kendrick and never will be

 

Mar 24, 2015

FNL is a classic, it's a shame that s--- wasn't his debut album. Outside of that, kendricks discog >>> coles Discog. Also, gkmc and tpab >> FNL. Cole is where he is because of his relatability, a lot of his s--- is very simple but people relate to it Everyone in the Cole section knows kendrick is "better" but a lot of them prefer Cole.

Man i honestly dont care they are both great artist both have different kinds of styles of rhyme and flow i just honestly cant wait till they drop that collab im tired of hearing that ghetto version of tempation

 

Mar 24, 2015

So yes I'm still quite confident in my assertion that this is a good album but not a truly great one

 

Mar 24, 2015

I'm huge Kendrick fan but i don't want that collab bs tbh!!! Kendrick is wayyyyyyyyyyy better than Cole. I prefer another Dot album or Kendrick/Jay Rock collab

 

Mar 24, 2015

it seems like u came a long way? no?

The Cole hate is kinda unnecessary though. The guys about to go platinum off an album with zero features and he dropped it with zero promo. Big Sean and kendrick both followed suit and used his promo tactic and had great first weeks. Cole sold out madison square and staples center in a day. His music falls short of the goat kendrick but some of the s--- he's doing is really impressive

 

Mar 24, 2015

why? (asking this in the most 5 year old kid pestering an adult way possible)

k. thots are worst.
