Thought it was a solid chill album. FRIENDS, The Cut Off, Window Pain are my takeaways. The commercial cuts are cool, just more of the same as whats already out there. Hate hearing BRACKETS during NBA promo. Song is too low energy for a high energy event.

PLEASE I hope none of you nikkas really believe that Cole purposely made the hooks and verses trash to prove a point or fulfill the concept, or whatever juelz'ing y'all doing.

Cole always been bad at singing and hooks. His label even knows this. He was supposed to sing the hook for, "Power Trip" (one of his biggest hits to date), but the label was like, ":whoa: we got enough in the budget for Miguel fam, you good..."

Cole isn't bad at all, but he isn't the GOAT like others say he is, and that's totally ok.

He's a B+ player with an A+ core fan base.

His real problem is that he doesn't even live up to the B+ standards, which leads to caping from his A+ core fan base

I listened to it once, and never want to hear it again.

Same feeling I got from Pimp a Butterfly.

Idk what’s up with these new crop of “god MC’s”, but the replay value on their projects just not the same as Jay and Nas shyt.

I’d rather have quality music I can listen to over and over, than shyt with a “deep” message I just wanna listen to once.

Oh Well.
