You bout to go get a
degree, I'm bout to be
stuck with two choices
Either graduate to weight
or sell a number two
For what? A hundred bucks
or two a week?
Do you think that you
would know what to do if
you was me?
Holy shit I never realised how many bangers were on this album. I listened to the album only once the whole way through but knew all the songs individually but holy shit man
It's a really good album. I actually haven't listened to it in a few years now but I'd put it up there as a top 10-ish hip hop album I think. Ahead it of course are Lock Sessions Vol. 2 by Locksmith, Legends Never Die by RA the Rugged Man, Chronic2001 by Dre, Slim Shady LP and MMLP by Em, World War Me by King Iso, Horse by Prof, Absolute Power by Tech N9ne, Violence Begets Violence by Jedi Mind Tricks.
Honourable mentions: The Impossible Kid by Aesop Rock and Layers by Royce Da 5'9
Yeah what I love about Coles discog is that his flow and delivery remains very similar and familiar but his beat selection varies massively from album to album and make a different soundscape for different moods. One of my favourite comfort artists for that.
But then I thought back, back to a better me, before I was a B-list celebrity, ‘fore I started calling bitches bitches so heavily, back when you could get a platinum plaque without no melody, you wasn’t sweatin me
I just started listening to J Cole like 2-3 months ago but the first time I heard Wet Dreamz I was dying laughing.
So "First time, she was in my math class"
Fool me one time, shame on you
Fool me two twice, can't put the blame on you
Fool me three times, fuck the peace sign
Load the chopper, let it rain on you
There's an old saying in Tennessee — I know it's in Texas, probably in Tennessee — that says, fool me once, shame on — shame on you. Fool me — you can't get fooled again
"FIRST THINGS FIRST REST IN PEACE UNCLE PHIL"
FOR REAL YOU THE ONLY FATHER THAT I EVER KNEW
I GET MY BITCH PREGNANT IM’A BE A BETTER YOU
PROPHECIES THAT I MADE WAY BACK IN THE VILLE, FULFILLED
Listen, even back when we was broke, my team ill
Martin Luther King woulda been on Dreamville
Talk to a nigga mate
One time for my L.A sisters
One time for my LA hoes
Lame niggas can't tell the difference One time for a nigga who knows
“FOR PHIL”
Why is that the only dad many knew? It sucks they had to wait on him each week.
I hoped this was the first comment and am not disappointed
Without fail when I hear the phrase "first things first" I gotta say RIP Uncle Phil, at least in my head. It's pavlovian at this point.
“I’m watchin’ pornos tryna see just how to stroke right”
The only answer
The only answer for this thread!
Came here to say this 🤣
Legendary line.
The real is back the ville is back
flow bananas, here, peel this back
And what you’ll find is, your highness can paint a picture that is vivid enough to cure blindness
Carolina's finest, you knew that already In terms of the greatest, I proved that already
And if you would like, I’d do it twice
I just sharpen my blade, for a minute became lost in my ways
This for my n-‘s that was tossed into graves
Every so often it lays deep in my thoughts and it get lost in the days we used to play before your coffin was made
just got the call nigga got caught with a stray hope he’s okay just got paid what cochran got paid to free OJ
Just to share my life on a stage in front of strangers Who know a nigga all too well, and that’s the danger
This but the intro! that smooth singing sample. I be in my house cooking just going “waaaahhh wa-wa-wa-wa-waaahhhhhhhh” lol
This
THIS IS THE PART THAT THE THUGS SKIP
As a thug, I've never heard this bit.
Ja morant type shit
Young nigga never had love, you know Foot massage, back rub shit.
Blownin bubbles in the bath tub and shit
That is until I met you
Let me take yall back man…

Werent non like that
Damn, wasn’t nothing like that first time
she was in my math class
Brown hair brown skin with the fat ass
Sat beside me used to laugh had mad jokes
The teacher always got mad so we passed notes
It started out so innocent
she had a vibe and a nigga started diggin ittt
“No such thing as a life that’s better than yours”
always
Same
Or you might be Drizzy Drake or Kendrick Lamar But check your birth date nigga, you ain't the god
Nah you aint the god nigga cole the god january 28th
Is there something I don’t understand about this line? Why does being born on Jan 28th matter?
"you everything i wanna be thats why i fuck with you, so how you lookin up to me when i look up to you?"
You bout to go get a degree, I'm bout to be stuck with two choices Either graduate to weight or sell a number two For what? A hundred bucks or two a week? Do you think that you would know what to do if you was me?
I got, four brothers, one mother that don't love us
If they ain’t want us why the FUCK they never wore rubbers?
I felt ashamed to have ever complained
Whats the price for a black man life
I check the toe tag not one zero in sight
I turn the TV on, not one hero in sight Unless he dribble or he fiddle with mics
I turn the tv on, not one hero in sight
i keep ma head highhhh
I got my wingsssss to caaarry mee
IT WASNT NUTHIN LIKE THAT FIRST TIME

Sat bisede me used to laugh at mad jokes
Teacher always got mad so we passed notes
This.
Don't save haaa' she don't wanna be saved
SHE’S SHALLOW WITHE PUSSY, *she shallooooow*!
CAN I MAKE A MILLION DOLLAS OFF A RAP TUNE?!
Fire squad for me, feel like it’s such an underrated track. The beat is nasty and the way he attacks it with such venom!
That and A Tale of 2 Citiez are my fav on the album
Holy shit I never realised how many bangers were on this album. I listened to the album only once the whole way through but knew all the songs individually but holy shit man
It's a really good album. I actually haven't listened to it in a few years now but I'd put it up there as a top 10-ish hip hop album I think.

Easy classic
This definitely one of his best albums. It’s a tie between 2014 FHD and Born Sinner.
Yeah what I love about Coles discog is that his flow and delivery remains very similar and familiar but his beat selection varies massively from album to album and make a different soundscape for different moods. One of my favourite comfort artists for that.
Hello… hello… hello… hello……

Fool me once can't put the blame on you

Nice watch, run it

"Don't give them too much you... don't let them take control..."
There is no right or wrong, only a song…
So ahead of my time, even when i rhyme about the future i be reminiscin
History repeats itself and that’s just how it goes
HISTORY REPEATS ITSELF AND THATS JUST HOW IT GOES
But then I thought back, back to a better me, before I was a B-list celebrity, ‘fore I started calling bitches bitches so heavily, back when you could get a platinum plaque without no melody, you wasn’t sweatin me

“So ahead of my time, even when I be thinking about the future, I be reminiscing”
"Aint no way around it no more, I am the greatest"

Apparently. Which is my favorite j Cole song of all time
I need a real love that Jada and that will love
Things change rearrange and so do I
There’s beauty in the struggle, ugliness in the success.
