It's certainly an important record...but that doesn't mean it is a great record. I listened again and definitely think it has some very high highs (no pun intended lol). Kevin's Heart and Once An Addict are the type of tracks I've waited years for Cole to make. It's also an album that suffers from Cole's trademark condescending tone and arrogance. And "social critiques" that are just too on the nose for me (Photograph especially). Add in some weak hooks/singing and I give this a 7/10. Probably his best album.

This album is only condescending if you’re an addict

ATM a classic vid. Very well done.

Reminds me of one those old Busta Rhymes videos.

Video deserved a better song

The song deserves better production

This is his best project. Easily. Dropped all the corny shyt. Finally.

 

[Standing on business]

This is a really good album. I didn't think that many people wouldn't like it in here

Is it me or is ATM some sort of mockery song?

Yes it stands for Addicted To Money. Relates to chasing money instead of happiness and the lengths people will go through for the almighty dollar while glorifying it

 

[KravenMorehead™]

Perfect.

 

[Jimmy ValenTime]

It might be a fun idea for someone to add elements to the beats or remix the tracks a bit

 

[DaHNIC82]
