and tbh i dont even know if this is his last
between the hov dropping reasonable doubt last line and other lines in this album that sound like cole isnt finished yet, i dont know if he's just gonna drop eps in the future or lil mixtapes on his website or whatever
i personally never understood the idea of saying "this is my last album" or even implying that--because I can easily imagine this nigga when he's 48 or something, having lived plenty of life since this album and wanting to do another one, but effectively shooting himself in the foot by marketing this as his last full project
Yup, similar to Jay-Z marketing "The Black Album" as his last album, only to come back a few years later with "Kingdom Come".
I think Cole will be back too.

good catch
tho hov was in his 30s so i feel like we might get some 4:44 typeshit from cole in a few years
id be cool just to hear cole drop loosies over his remaining years or another clue tape or 2--doesnt even have to make a real comeback

Jay retired because of 50 and was a lot younger. it's not the same even if cole comes back tbh
they not cool
well yea i meant that in a scenario where they were

Jay retired because of 50?
Jay retired because of 50?
uhh yeah? 50 came thru and crashed the buildings, became the face of ny, and the face of rap. jay couldn't compete with that.
Feel like Off Season is gonna increase in value after this album
I ran that album and FHD back last Saturday and tbh those 2 albums are the ones I think might age the best out of his discography to people who donāt care to dig deep through everything and just want to get a grasp of who Cole was to the game in his prime

Nah he was planning the black album for a minute before 50 blew
hes from the south. every1 loves T.I down here. arguably top 10 DOA
I really hate how similar to boosie people be tryna downplay tip just because heās a dumbass

T.I is an intelligent dude but makes a fool of himself sometimes
Love the guyās music but he would have a completely different perception in the world if he just let the music speak and didnāt try to do too much public speaking
I didnāt like the tems feature, song dragged
Tbh
I feel like even the Burna Boy feature was kinda tacked on and didnāt contribute to the song that well, just felt like a completely different song
And youāre right that the song drags.
As someone with Nigerian heritage, I shouldnāt feel like these Great artists are just padding time on your album
Brother I would gladly listen to some good upcoming rappers if there were ANY
Thereās plenty, whether they be lyrical, street or the zoomer underground stuff. Thereās good/great young artists everywhere youāre on a music forum you should be ahead of the curve on this stuff.
Are there any disses on here?
no but a lot of general braggadocio and Iām the best type raps without saying names or being too specific. This is allegedly his last album, and Iām sure he doesnāt want it to be overshadowed by him falling into a beef. Especially with how the last one went.
Never thought Iād be hearing Youtube sad guitar type beats like Life Sentence and Only You on J cole retirement album
