I don't really get the negative reviews by some, yeah parts of the production is definitely simpler on some songs but he also has expanded his repertoire and uses ...I'm up to Chaining Day now, it's really smooth so far. Definitely several steps up from Sideline Story :smokin

Lol was just about to quote you.

Must be true tho.

Been thinking that for awhile now tho.

I'm usually swayed by NT opinions but I really enjoy this LP.

Thought that was the only logical reason why it was getting so much bad reviews from Cole fans.

I mean its not at all frequent that you get an instant classic like GKMC anyways.

I feel bad for anyone dropping an album after GKMC

GKMC set the current bar IMO

stupid mindset.

I undetstand tho Kendrick made a classic :smokin

You need to look at it in terms of the artist.

Cole is different than Lamar and he made a veryyyyy solid album

-__- You do realize they plan on dropping a collab...

so why wouldn't I expect a classic?

Maybe my expectations are too high for Cole and he isn't capable of making a classic any time soon....

Or maybe his label isn't giving him the freedom he needs to produce a classic

whatever it is, only time will tell...
 
These NT reviews are hilarious... Dont believe the hype this is a very good album. What I learned after several listens is that he is regretful of the compromises the forces that be put on him on the first album. He doesn't seem to thrilled with that album. Shots a Jay throughout the album :nerd: ???

I hate when people compare mixtapes to albums. The rules of the game are completely different for mixtapes.

Exactly.

People just ignore the fact that the Record Label has invested a lot of money in these artists.
They want a profit in return.
Even though he is his own producer, like he said in a few interviews there are a lot of rules and research that go into single choices that most of America doesn't know about. There are things behind the scenes that we just dont see. People that make decisions that we'll never know about. Samples that don't clear for songs we'll never get to listen to.

A lot of factors that go into albums.
None of that matters for his mixtapes.

But all in all even though this album isnt perfect, and i understand its lack of appeal for people looking for catchy radio type tunes... its still very solid rap, and very solid hiphop that we just dont hear much of anymore these days.

Kendrick has spoiled America :lol:

Listened to the whole thing in the whip. Decent. Kinda boring. Will get old very fast, But there are some nice songs on it. I let bas down is dope. She knows too.
 
It sounds better in the whip I'll give it that.

Funny because huge Cole fans like myself dont really like the album. I told a lot of my friends (who aren't Cole fans find him boring, etc) to listen to it and they actually liked it more than I did.

QFT...except I think its better than decent its pretty good. And GKMC has nothing to do with my opinion on cole's album. It would be foolish to compare the two bodies of work imo.
 
Off first listen, I was actually really impressed.

I'll have to listen to it a couple more times before I give it a final review.
 
This thread is torture, still holding out and skipped pretty much every page since the leaks dropped. The 18th cannot come soon enough
