it’s a good album man

KOD is so terribly executed man

been like that since ktt1 at least

Dudes rich and successful can’t feel bad for him

but I also really don’t understand the level of vitriol that

What i never really got, even if you dont like his music or fans and think he's overrated and dont belong in the big 3. The level of hate he gets you would think he's a completely unlikable person

Beef brain leads to rot

Lying >>>

I've said this before but how Cole managed to set our expectations so high without ever meeting them before is the most self-defeating s*** I've ever seen.

But I got over that quickly and just enjoy the stuff I enjoy on there. Same as the EP. His flaws are at least interesting.

tbh carti thug future all get s*** on these days lol

Future gets glazed 24/7 man.

And niggas saying that MUSIC was a good album with replay value.

I think Thug is getting rightfully put in his place.

Most unremarkable rapper to touch the mic in a min.
I'll give him credit for milking a 10+ yr, commercially viable career tho.
"Big Three" push was all label propaganda to give niggas like him legs...

we not hating enough then

I felt this way about this Cole album that I felt about all the other ones

Cool album. Some tracks I’ll go back to. Some trash. I wish Cole had more energy and variance in his delivery and a better ear for beats

But if you’re a huge Cole fan already I’m sure you love this s***. And ultimately he has a fan base that’s big enough that that’s all he needs

With all the hype I thought he’d make an undeniable classic that Cole critics/skeptics would enjoy but he made a Cole album for Cole fans and that’s fine. There’s more than enough music in my phone. Anything new is a bonus atp

Probably the most regular mainstream rapper out. Sometimes I side eye peeps that have a personal issue with him

Don't feel for Cole, feel bad for the ones that need to retell the same jokes. They're the real losers

Ye Cole hate still hilarious

It’s because he sells enough records, and has enough loud annoying fans in media that he ends up in conversations he doesn’t belong in

That’s basically the long and short of it

If he did Big Sean numbers (which are still fantastic, mind you) the hate wouldn’t be there

I feel like the album isn’t even bad
The perception of Cole after that battle is making the album seem worse than it is

facts well said

just wish he didnt hype this album for so long

I just wanted him to rap and really go in. It’s some good songs on it though.

Cap

The album is being received poorly because it was hyped up for years and years, and it’s being billed as his final album and because Cole said it was his Reasonable Doubt. Most people have moved past the battle/apology

Drake got the same treatment when he dropped CLB (overhyped album that wound up being a solid standard Drake album)
