Been stuck on "For Whom the Bell Tolls" for about 15 min now. Could've done w/o "She's Mine, Pt. 1"

 

[TEKBEATZ]

4th Quarter Cole?

 

[Throw Ur Hood Up]

I think it's a mixtape.

It's sad that She's Mine Part 1 and Dejavu are about his other women instead of his wife. & it's funny and a little annoying how you all think it's about his wife when it's clearly not.

Folding clothes was really cute and surely about his wife. She's mine part 2 was about his daughter and very cute.

My faves were change and neighbors.

Pretty sure this was a mixtape and not an album.

This isn't good enough to be an ablum, but it's fine for a mixtape. It also follows his mixtape trend of having a Z instead of S. Truely yourz, for your eyez only.

First half is different. Probably tracks that won't get getting much play. Starting with Change though this thing is starting to sound more like a Cole album.

 

[TheAnalyst504]

gotta sit with this one for a minute.

 

[JackUzi]

The album sounds great. Humane. It's gonna take some digesting.
Wow, Westside Gunn said that? Must be the truth then. If Westside Gunn ever makes it (outside of the 90's nostalgia male crowd that listens to him) this is probably one of the tweets he's gonna delete.

The mind of a female listener

 

[CarltonJunior]

Wow this shyt went over my head, this album deeper than I thought. I got to listen to it again from this perspective

Sounds about right, I had a feeling he was rapping from a perspective starting with Neighbors.

 

[Giselle]

Pretty sure it's an album.

I hope not. It's not good enough to be an album and it's short. He should just keep this as a mixtape. This wasn't what he had planned for releasing in feb. I can tell. Pretty sure he has better songs for later on. Maybe for the next one. I know he has more videos.

lol

I take some of that back. I knew for sure some of it wasn't about his wife bc it didn't match up. They say the whole thing is about his friend, but idk. How could he know all of that about someone else, especially the guys dating life.

 

[Lil Bape the PostGod]

I'm a cole fan...but this is kinda light

@ leaving off everybody dies and false prophets off this

Unforgivable

Making an album isn't just stuffing it with all the best songs. Those tracks were left off because they do not fit the album thematically and sonically, especially Everybody Dies. Listen to the album front to back and tell me where those 2 can be slotted in and both the father/mother/daughter concept and the heavy jazz + string + ambient sound would be kept in tact? You got the songs anyways, just add them to the playlist and hit shuffle stupid
