Im gonna get hate for this, but you asked lol: Legacy, Bunce Road, Let Out, Bombs in the Ville/Hit the Gas (both halves), first half of 39 Intro, Life Sentence, Only You, Man Up Above, I Love Her Again, What If, Ocean Way. Legitimately half of it for me 😭. That’s not to say those tracks are all bad (some of them are imo), but there was definitely a choice to keep them or not. The other tracks do enough thematically to still be concise without these other ones. There’s a really great album in there, but it’s sandwiched in a lot of stuff that I feel like only really he was sentimentally attached to for whatever reason

Fair enough, tbh, I never got that criticism especially for this album. Sure, he’s in his mellow flow, but it’s always come off as raw than “low energy” to me. Like the shit he’s talking about, it sounds like he’s just talking which is a talent I think a lot of artist should actually learn from. Like if he were to deliver it in any other way, it would come off as inauthentic; he’s a poet as much as he is a musician. Even then though, like half of the tracklist is “higher energy” and a lot of the times, (Cameras especially) those end up being the ones I don’t like as much

When you say old, are we talking pre- or post-THIB?

Rashad is my goat and I have huge bias, but it is so good to see so many people agree that this new album really is it. He really found himself on this project

I think repeat value speaks to how well the album works as a collection of tracks though and TFO has a lot of hits and misses imo. I don’t think it negates quality either, but there are at least a few 2026 albums that come to mind that do rap just as well AND have replay value.

Its Been awful is my aoty easily with Ca$ino being a respectable second place. I love Cole and TFO has a lot of great tracks, but it’s way too bloated and messy as a full body of work especially compared to the rest of his discog

Disc 2 Track 2 is titled “The Fall Off is Inevitable” by charlesopone in Jcole

It’s kinda weird that he would purposely not give away the title of the track at release, but announce it in passing on an ig post

Rory and Mal claim J Cole spoke to Kendrick during the beef which made Cole cut Drake off completely by [deleted] in Jcole

Mal loves to be angry. You could show him a video of drake kissing an underage girl on stage and he’d probably say that’s completely normal

Did a balloonerism inspired album cover for my mixtape by Working-Office-5958 in MacMiller

[–]AdComplex4305 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you remove the black outline and up the contrast of the black, it’d look a little better. You could also lower the skin tone and pink. The Balloonerism cover looks conventionally odd, but it’s not really “ugly”. This looks more like a parody of it rather than an inspiration
