His last great album was in 2014, he followed it up with not 1 but 2 disappointing albums and a lukewarm label album. I highly doubt 7 years later he'll suddenly come back but we never know I guess

Gonna be great

I’m not sure if Off Season will still come out, apparently that’s planned before the album. I’ll be ticked off if that ends up being better than the album, like man learn to pick better songs lol

He’s been contemplating retirement for a while now plus he’s been building towards this album for a while (Everybody Dies and False Prophets initially being meant for The Fall Off, him crossing stuff off with his feature run and ROTD 3 bringing more eyes and ears to his artists)

At the least he’s pulling a 3 Stacks and we’ll only see him once in a blue moon

I'm curious what's "It's A Boy"

I pretty sure that’s his Kill Edward project unless he put another baby in his wife

From this point on it seems like it'll be a while till we get The Fall Off, at least those 2 projects should be good

Jermaine can keep the Kill Edward project

I agree, never cared for it

Is everybody dies and false prophets going to be on the album?

At this point I don't think so, they're practically 5 years old. I consider them as bonus tracks

bruh.... false prophets came out in 2016 and it's over a Joey Badass beat... why would it be on his new album?

Well he said it was meant for the album

J cole wanna be blu so bad lmao

I wouldn’t mind if he came close to topping me

Coles biggest issue is his production to Me. He links up with a flying lotus and he has a great album.

So

Eh sometimes you get in a zone on someone's else best and can make it your own.

I mean look at Land of The Snakes

People really forget the purpose of music forums lol

Dont see how their styles would match
Cole just needs some good simple soulful beats, that's where he shines the most

Check this out. Flying lotus def has that soul beat, boom bap in his cannon. I think Cole would sound great over some of these

These are cool but he probably can do better with some 9th wonder beats

T-Minus killed the beat for Lion King On Ice imo, need Cole to work with more outside producers too. If he gets Just Blaze, David Banner, London On Da Track, 9th wonder, etc. it'll be legendary
