I don't know if you all listen to music or just beats, but 4 Your Eyes Only was not lacking lyrically, at all. What is was...was personal. If you can't relate or vibe, I understand and people aren't going to all gravitate to such a personal album. But, whether you got bored or wasn't interested is one thing...calling it weak is another and lyrically is just not true.

I think Born Sinner is his best studio album. Gotta go back to that. Still mad he wasted Kendrick on that sample.
Friday Night Lights >>>>> Anything else he's put out.

That's his 3rd tape but I'd start with 'The Warm Up'. Dude was hungry as hell on that joint.

Boring album. But feel most of mainstream Cole has been a disappointment.

Cole set expectations way too high with FNL. Hasn't lived up to it yet.
4YEO was a snooze fest.

Idc what anyone says, SLS had some bangers too. God's Gift, Rise and Shine, and In the Morning still get heavy play.

J. Cole is pretty meticulous when it comes to his album sequencing, being that KOD has 3 different meanings I see it playing out as:
Kid on Drugs - first 3-4 songs about a kid growing up living the fast life, being exposed to things
King Overdose - 3-4 songs, the bangers/turn up music, braggadocios, “i got all i want” type of vibe, stunt
Kill Our Demons - 3-4 songs, introspective tracks, addressing regrets and damage that may have been done, demons from when he was a kid, and also the sinful “king overdose” phase of his life

^That would be a dope concept!
I personally think Cole doesn't need to start having rap features on his albums at all. When I listen to a album I come to hear the artist and for me the lest guest verses there are the better.
FHD is Cole's best and most complete body of work IMO. I do think he can do better as that album is a bit weak towards the end. I am hoping he can put out a certified classic that is strong from beginning to end. I think FYEO was a good album and under-appreciated actually, I just could have done without the interludes and a bit better pacing.
Wth all that being said I am excited for this project and what Cole has to say!
