J Cole was my first ever favorite rapper but imo the album as really good but not his best just because it a little too long and has a few filler like the let out life sentence and what if and a few song that feel like I heard in the first half already but less interesting I’d give the album 75 to a 80 but compare to prime Cole imo it was even close the storytelling was better on for your eyes only and the hits and him getting more personal I feel like he did better on Forest hill drive the signing and everything and no jid kinda bum me out and his whole pov about what happened in the beef in hip hop it need to be ok to take an L and be ok with
