The reactions for this album are literally confusing as hell to me
I'm assuming a lot of the people saying that this album is amazing/great have not heard the songs he released over the last year. Wale is one of those artists that doesn't know which songs to let go for free and which to keep for his albums.
Example...
Yal really thinking "The Middle Finger" is dope? Really? I can't even cosign that when this song could of had the same name as that and sounds so much better...
"If it's fukk me it's fukk you toooooo"... I mean, I don't get the shyt at all.
Album is good but it could have been really dope if he replaced some of the meh songs on there with these.

Im coppin too..
Album reminds me of a merge of Drake's So Far Gone and Wiz's Taylor Allerdice which is crazy
There are some soulful songs on here, some of them he's singing the hooks though which I'm not feeling as much as others are though

Excellent analogy. Perfect merger.

I get where you're coming from in terms of your belief that the dude needs to stop dropping album worthy cuts in bulk a month before his albums drop (he's literally done that before every album he's dropped on Ross's imprint), but this album is still spectacular to me. shyt is the fulfillment of the promise this nikka showed as an artist back when mixtape about nothing dropped. Sonically, lyrically, thematically and flow wise I think it's his best album IMO. shyt is tough.
I don't like this better than Kendrick's album but I think it's every bit as good or better than Cole's album and I'm a Cole fan.

Wale pulled a Cole ''Born sinner'', no rap features just hooks, even the rappers ala 50 on ''New York Times''
album version of ''Girls on Drugs''
