[:: J. COLE THREAD | DREAMVILLE's ROTD3 ALBUM OUT NOW!! ::]

[sonunox34]

THAT OUTKAST SAMPLE

 

[melo0115]

Hopefully a better quality leak comes out tomorrow.. I wait a few days though...

 

[ill steelo]

Land of the Snakes is basically an Art of Storytellin freestyle

He went beyond sampling

 

[shoeking2101]

Born Sinner is a great album.

The joint with James Fauntleroy

Trouble

Villuminati

Obviously Power Trip, Crooked Smile

Chaining Day is dope too.

They could have kept that Forbidden Fruit record though. How can J. Cole and Kendrick produce that :x

Would have loved to see a few leaks on the album like "Cousins" and "Can I holla at ya"

Overall, I think this joint is an 8/10. Sucks that he won't win a Grammy off of it though. IMO GKMC is better than this, and NWTS will probably end up being the AOTY.

album is solid, but **** i knew i shouldnt have had high expecations

How I'm currently feeling, and I'm a huge Cole fan....

Few of the Truly Yours Tracks on this would have been instead of some other tracks, and I'm still not done my first listen.

Like Gone in 60 said.... It's cool just not what I expected

 

[thatmartiankid]

None of the download links are working for me

I'm getting my deluxe copy with Truly Yours 3. Guess It wasn't meant to be, so I shall wait until the June 18th. I really hope it meets my expectations, a new form of art, with lyrical visuals. I'm so faded, I was so ready for this. I just couldn't get my Tony Montana in check, to skip class and head to listening session in New York. I had my beats and I had

but noooo, I just couldn't do it.  

 

[rico x hood]

Just like Sideline Story, I can already tell this album will have little replay value for me.

In a week's time Kevin Gates will be bangin thru my speakers again. Solid effort from Cole though.

 

[illvine]

Love it on first spin, will run it through again tomorrow in the whip with two 10's

 

[heliumclinton]

Born Sinner and Let Nas Down .. I appreciate the most

everything else will have to grow on me

 

[cronicmolemolereturns]

He's streaming the entire thing on his Youtube page.. I think its okay to listen now..

 

[k town trash]

VERY boring album. Let Nas Down, Trouble, N's Know and She Knows are the only track that stands out so far. First spin and seems like replay value is already out the window. Production is super average.

 

[k town trash]

I just listened to Forbidden Fruit and Let Nas Down. I couldn't help but notice Cole borrowed a couple of lines.

"What you eat don't make me ****zz" and "No I.D. my mentor now let the story begin". The first one off Heart of The City by Jay and the second off Kanye's Big Brother.

Any who, album just finished downloading, brb when I'm done listening!

are you surprised? cole always "borrows" lines from ye and jay...

Been a fan of homie since 09...but this **** is boring as hell.  I'm starting to think dude peaked at Friday Night Lights

 

[jumpman2314]

This album was very dope off my first listen 

Didn't disappoint at all..

Listening to an album with specific expectations or presumptions rarely end well...

 

[waka flocka]

This album is straight up doodoo

 

[gllahone84]

Crazy because all I've been hearing for the past year or so is how Cole's production has improved. 

Will give it a listen today. 

Who else feels the same about the production?

@ The reviews here.

Have you listened to it yet HTTB? 

 

[trynafeelmink]

NT says album is trash and boring = the album is probably one of the best of the year.... But most will wait until someone else says it before changing their opinion

*Raises hand*

Production is a step back (IMO). Beats are really simplistic.

Nope, trying to hold out. Not liking what I'm hearing here, though.

 

[gone in 60 seconds]

My problem w/ it is he didn't come w/ anything new, it's like I've heard all these songs before (from him).

Also he name drops Jay so much on this album, you'd think he was his son. The name dropping on this album is Game(esq) & that's pretty annoying.

Nobody's gonna call this rap AOTY & I'm gonna go out on a limb & say Wale's joint will be BETTER than this & Ye's joint is gonna be epic!!!

It's the weekend so I'll prb cave in and dl.
