One of the best lyricists of his generation. I listened to him and Weezy the most growing up and while re-listening this mixtape after so much time I find it so much fresher than I thought in both sounds and content. Cole season incoming.

Another medicore Cole project but definitely bigger step up front the other projects I’ve review so far from him
