Album Rating: 0.5

the average is too high for this imo

Haven’t heard this but Cole has been on a bad punchline tear lately so unsurprising ratings

1.9 lmao

Album Rating: 1.0

J Cole is the Peter Molyneux of hip-hop.

Very nice review, this sounds like it's as shit as its title and cover, my god.

(the climb back is a wonderful track from Off Season xx)

Can't wait to listen and see exactly how cringe this is. Can't wait for Kendrick to dismiss the clapback with one bar

Am I witnessing the down fall of j cole

This is just so bland

I never knew why people put this guy in that top tier, he's top tier at yapping it up but doesn't really say anything and doesn't go to heights that these other top tier artists are consistently reaching on every release. But sure, he made a rap song and he sounds like he's good at rapping? Reminds me of Joyner Lucas, top tier yapper, but holy shit who is impressed by this nowadays? Who is taking this in and saying, "That's my goat." Do people get emotional listening to this?

Are there any highlights on this album? Nothing really jumped out at me.

I bet this is peepee poopoo lol, he absolutely sucks but I thought Off Season was good tbh

Loved the first two songs on the Off Season

Can someone explain the Jordan Peterson reference in the review? I am familiar with the book 12 rules, but not the man himself.

Album Rating: 0.5

Even taking Jordan Peterson's awful politics out of the equation, he is basically a dumb person's idea of a smart person

I’m like a decent-sized cole apologist and this is legit so bad I am reevaluating my stance

last time i heard j cole was a coworker playing him on a bluetooth speaker at work with some song about how he's sorry for having sex or someshit. meanwhile my 50-something yo boss stood there lookin annoyed and suicidal.

lmao

Was it the Sleep Token thread where someone described it as "coworker metal"? Perhaps J. Cole is "coworker hip-hop"

damn he's actually been pretty decent last couple of years (especially features) and then he does this

Ah J Cole, the luckiest fucker this side of white lyrical miracle rappers. The dude whose entire career sits on being kinda like Kendrick and just more profitable enough than AbSoul

Also

"J Cole is the Peter Molyneux of hip-hop." Is disgusting but also disgustingly true

J. Cole is the classmate who has just discovered Inspiration Tumblr and is quoting it daily.
Be careful, he's about to finish Infinite Jest.
