J Cole The Fall Off 2/6 Anticipation and Discussion thread

Wale's album is better, regardless of the genre. Hip hop is a musical genre.
You're taking the conversation out of context
His initial statement implied that high level lyricism required metaphors and entendres, hence my reply above.
And for the record, i believe Kendrick is closer to a Nas than he is to a Jay in terms of their styles of lyricism. And I don't think he's that far off of the level if at all.
But yeah I probably got busy or just plain didn't feel like continuing the back and forth lol

Cole is terribly singing and wailing all over this. The number of song starting with some Spanish guitar and him “whoaaa whoaa’ing” ain’t hip hop
funny the let out is the only song i enjoy on this album

Just realized this album didn't make it to a 3rd listen from me
Gotta go through this again and see which songs are playlist worthy

I don't think an album has ever grown on me as much as this has. I was lukewarm on it at first, but I enjoy it more with each listen - first listen I had it at around 7-7.5/10, at this point it's like a 9/10 for me. It has grown on me to an insane degree.

This is how I feel
I REALLY sat with it for weeks and it got better every listen.
Like this is a LEGIT 4.5 mic album
People trying to digest and judge this the first weekend it came out was insane. 1 hour and 43 minutes is a lot of music to consume in one sitting. I like treating this like I have it in physical CD form and have to choose which disc to listen to at a time.
