Yeah the whole.situation is getting of hand. From the song it seems Nas and Dion aka producer No I.D. were having a conversation about workout and Nas told No I.D. he hated the song who then runs and tells Cole. (Possibly to shyt on him for not taking his beats) :russ:

Yea..that was type.wrong for No I.D to tell Cole that...and now Cole went and aired the whole shyt out..lol..

I never understood the hate for Work Out, it just seemed like an obvious radio single. shyt, the nikka even used a vocoder, not autotune, a vocoder

He could have made a
"say the same thing twice/
say the same thing twice/
say the same thing twice/
say the same thing twice (TURN UP)"

type single but he chose another route. To me it was like he was trying to make a 90s single but it just didn't work out :yeshrug:

I never liked it...and the songs that I was FOR SURE was gonna be hit singles didn't go nowhere..Workout was one of the wierdest single situations I've ever witnessed..lol...In The Morning shoulda been certified and didn't go anywhere...

i gave in and listened to it... decent little album even though i know i will rarely listen to it.

improved his beats, made songs i actually want to hear again and tightened up his skills even though he says a ridiculous amount of corny/poor shyt when you consider the pedestal people put him on..not his fault, i guess.. i can see why he has no rapping features on there he most likely would have got washed but on the other hand it might've made him step up a bit.

i give him some credit for sampling The Cults on She Knows.

he's done well for himself for someone who probably went from internet text rapper to soundclick rapper to where he is now.

:salute:

but when he raps....i just don't care. :yeshrug: but, atleast on this album, it wasn't as much of a chore.

i could never consider myself an outright fan but i'll stay checking for his music since i been doing on that 2dope to sleep on shyt on 2dopeboyz.

I notice anytime the last song on the album bleeds into the intro of the first song I end up listening to the album over and over again...same with GKMC

goddamn.

Villuminati sets the mood/tone for this album SOO well. Anyone that plans to give this album an unbiased listen, listen to the intro intently 3-4 times before you proceed to the rest of the album.

My stand out tracks other than the intro, to name just a few:

Runaway
Rich nikkas
Forbidden Fruit
Let Nas Down
Born Sinner
 

Sad Bunny

let the hype die down fam... I ran in back twice attentively and it is trash. Those beats are pretty bad to amateur status. Friday night lights seems to be his peek so far.
