Didn’t expect old kanye on the second track, the whole album feels like an old kanye pastiche from some alternate reality, somebody hadda do it when even new kanye can’t i guess. Incredible album might even be better then Be, which i thought was his peak. Common might be similar to Nas with how despite there age there still making some of the freshest hip hop. Managed to capture my attention throughout n I remain throughouly impressed

surprisingly fresh

lightyear is amazing literally 10/10 skits aren’t bad too

underrated ah project

this album is insanely underrated on here, this is one of my favorite albums of all time

didn’t listen to all of it but the cake parody with mario a la kart was hilarious and there best work

Nokia is gas the rest of the album a pass

ik this album boutta get overhated again like the last one but sky city was dissapointing and honestly vultures 1 is better

I liked more of the album than I thought I would but the amount of tracks I’m not returning to or forgot is staggering. For an album released from prison it is pretty impressive tbh despite a lot of the tracks feeling incomplete at there core. The production was definitely a big highlight as it felt pretty fresh for a trap album released in 2023

Best: Oh U Went, Hellcat Kenny, Parade on Cleveland, Money On The Dresser, Mad Dog

Worst: Abracadabra, Uncle M, the auto tune and mixing on ... read more

I liked it but the people calling this album of the year must’ve not heard any other albums from this year

So underrated it’s kinda crazy

Spotify just recommended this album one day and it did not disappoint

Good but I don’t know what that avocado is doing and what it has to do with an israeli salad

Good to great performances from Freddie with some incredible production from The Alchemist. Pretty good album

Classic. Nothing more to say💙

Best J. Cole album idc what anybody says. Incredibly but subtly engrossing and puts you in this soulful world.

Thank Hedrick for putting me on this artist, he got some great taste

I don’t think any other album has ever really grabbed me front to back like this one has. I was engaged the entire way through which is kind of a rarity for a lot of these longer albums I’ve heard, even my favorites

I know this is a really unorthodox release but I kinda wish more artists like Max would release these big throwaway projects of just stuff they got in the vault
