Did we ruin him by making him want number one, he's always been competitive but he was always about his positive and relatable s***, chilled back and good then he started for the crown and got repetitive

He’s never made great music

isnt he doing some weird method acting thing trying to be on a 'fall off' for the next album ?

people hyped up a mediocre rapper as if he was better than his peers for too long & the unrealistic standards were never met

that’s all it is

he lacks the personality or creativity to really be that nigga

talented and driven tho

Ive been a defender of him for the longest

i was always holding onto how good 2014FHD was (undeniable classic)

but every single album since has either been terrible from release or aged terribly

cole always been 90% cringe. got some gems in his discog tho

He's on a fall off even before the fall off album

eww a cole hate thread

u spoke too soon.

The Fall Off on the way !

which gems are we talking about ?

4yeo out now

Off Season is a good album imho.

2009-2010 cole
everything since

bro is super-average

Cole still really good

Was a huge fan of Cole growing up, still think he's a good guy. But this is it tbh. He benefitted from blowing up in an era where new niggas weren't really rapping like that and the "next Kanye" narratives

Like the worst one you could've chosen to refute that

Still bump TWU, FNL, Truly Yours, Born Sinner, FHD, some of KOD, some of 4YEO, OS and MDL.

Think you guys just hate to hate cuz he’s a rapper who raps.
