    Because of the story/concept of this album, I feel like it will be relevant for a very long time. That's why I feel like I don't have to overplay it today, next week, next month.

    It's one of those albums I can stop listening to completely and pick it up again in a few months and listen all the way through and it still be amazing.

    I know this s--- is going to sound hella cliché but this album has made me feel things I've never felt before. That's something I can't rate or explain it's just happening

    this intro is a dope window in to depression tho, i like what he did with it

    the delivery is filled with emotion, but the writing is cyclical enough to really mimic what depression actually is.

    it's not quite "i feel like that" but cole will never be as good as kanye so haaaah

    Word, but I personally listen to the albums for the beats also, and the production on this is deep. Pretty sure I ain't caught yet all the sounds and melodies after 10 listens. But we shouldn't be having this discussion on day 1 fam, this becoming another TPAB or Untitled isn't excluded as well :laff: I played those two projects 20 times combined.

    Iffy about the whole album on first listen as a Cole Stan... 3rd time and I absolutely love it. d--- near shed a tear while listening to 4 Your Eyez Only.. ain't jumping to conclusion to saying it's a classic quite yet tho

    Kind of underwhelmed by the album but I can respect what Cole was trying to do. Hope the collab with Kenny drops soon..

    Word I listen top down too, but there's just not enough compelling "moments" on this album. I think that's why we were all underwhelmed first listen, until we figured out the story on 2nd listen and it came together.

    I think this album is almost like a 45 minute long song (because they're so clearly interconnected) rather than 10 individual tracks.

    I'm proud of him for making this album, but I think if I had to pick one major draw back, it's that.

    FHD was the one, if he rapped the way he did on here for FHD we'd be having a different conversation.

    ones things for sure that can't be denied is Cole put together something which critics might like ... although he definitely didn't do it for that reason

    what i mean by that is just like the cohesive sound throughout the album which also happens to be a sound which we haven't really heard from him or anyone really before (he brought a new sound + used it throughout the album)

    and also the theme of course

    its a definite PROJECT but like you guys are saying is it one that will stand the test of time?

    i really think he has to follow up with another album pretty soon tbh, imo

    perfect time for kendrick collab to come in febraury 2017 if you ask me :khaled:
