The Warm Up

The warm up is a massive step up from his debut mixtape in my opinion. He stepped up his pen game so much from one project to another and there are less corny bars scattered throughout, more fleshed out concepts and songs, and better flows and better production. The first half of this mixtape is truly near perfect for me and I think the second half has a bit less memorable tracks but I still think every single song on here is great! I think a few songs are a bit underdeveloped or have some moments here and there that are a bit weaker just in the books, singing, or writing but for most of this mixtape I thought this was amazing. I thought this was a massive step up and I’m upset that I didn’t listen to this sooner tbh. This might be one of my favorite Cole projects I’ve heard from him.
