J. Cole - KOD Album Review | DEHH

[@Patan_sito]

Getting myke to get colored dreads should be a patreon goal.

[@Leviathan_Art]

Scrubis Scrubmirez why that damages hair especially the bleaching process. Myke at his age probably doesn't want to do that.

[@ocampbell1954]

J. Cole is an above average rapper. J. Cole is a average producer. His pride won't let him reach out to other producers beside FHD. I can't say he's produced one classic beat. Maybe Power Trip. Dude would sound incredible over some Apollo Brown, Premo, Just Blaze, 9th Wonder beats, but his pride won't allow him to admit his beats aren't great.

[@crypto_Cold]

Oneil Campbell thank you

[@isaiahgooden9125]

Oneil Campbell Hell Krit got other people to help produce his album and it’s dope. Cole has all of those rappers and at least one singer in his camp and he refuses to collab with them on his own albums

[@yvngmatic4088]

Oneil Campbell he produced hiiipower

[@Talkinghead2k]

The one classic beat he has is hiipower

[@FlamencoOz]

I agree with your statement. I don't think as a rapper he is anywhere in the league of Nas, Kendrick, Cube, etc etc. And as a producer he is nowhere near in the league of Primo, Dre, etc etc. He is above average but no more than that, however he has a tonne of fans so why does he need to change anything? What he does works for his fanbase.

These Cole die hards are crazy as hell LOL

[@Slesaint17]

Jay Anderson I don’t understand how anyone can be a die hard fan of anything and just pretend like something isn’t sub par. I fucking LOVE Kendrick, Andre 3000 and Kanye easily my 3 favourite rappers (I’m only 21 so the older rappers don’t hit me as hard as I didn’t grow up with their music whereas Andre & Kanye were the soundtrack to my childhood and Kendrick was the soundtrack for my teenage years). But, if Kendrick or Andre were ever to release anything wack, I’m not gonna sit there and try and defend it...with Kanye, he’s released a bunch of wack shit in the past few years, and I never defend it...Ye and JIK were just not up to par and I’ll never try and tell someone that it’s great just because I like Kanye...I don’t get this whole die hard fan/dick riding culture tbh...the worst are easily Eminem dickriders tho...

[@augustrose5]

Jay Anderson That's how I feel about Eminem die hards. I'm an Eminem fan but I love Nas, Pac, Wu Tang, etc. too and without them you wouldn't have him. And some of the songs he's released over the past 10 years are a no for me especially the ones he did with Rihanna.

[@dre8463]

I feel like B. What don't people see about Cole's old projects? He was WAY better back in his mixtape days.

[@iansmart4158]

Naw. I love those projects but there is no way songs like LADIES, TIL INFINITY, and HOME FOR THE HOLIDAYS are better than songs like BRACKETS or CHANGE.

[@dre8463]

Ian Smart but Cole was more consistent then. Cole is barely giving snippets of the old Cole on his new stuff. His best bodies of work were his mixtapes.

[@iansmart4158]

See i don't. I listen to that Cole for a youthful energy. I get more out of how focused and consistent this new Cole is. His projects aren't just about his own insecurity but about his perspective on the world (and he structures his songs in a way that makes that even better). Maybe its just me, but I get WAY more outta Cole now than I did when I heard those mixtapes (i do love them tho)

[@NOBUJORDAN]

FHD is on par with FNL in my opinion. KOD is right under those 2 for me.

[@Thinkableness]

Cole is more like the average rapper you know from the block, who's nice, but the most you'll get out of him is steady improvement, which isn't bad, but by today's standards he's too slow and considered boring -he seems like someone who's music would be appreciated more in the in the early 2000s. You don't (at least I don't) expect anything mindblowing from him, his subjects is stuff my mother told me when I was a kid (don't do drugs, don't go around having babies, show respect, stay outta jail, etc) it's basic shit to me, but when I hear people say he's "Woke" I'm like damn, my mom told me this.

[@Flow349]

I’m a cole fan but do feel his flaw is it’s too much him. Him on the beat, him on the hook, him on the verse. This is a solid project but i always wanted to see him work with NO ID or just someone else and a few features just to see him spar with somebody. The project is cool but again it’s not great and i feel like he’s just missing 1 or 2 things

[@chrisringer5778]

F.L.O.W. I'm also a Cole fan and I feel like this album and the last one had a message he needed to get across that didn't seem right for features. TBH the only song that I felt that could have used a feature was Motiv8 and the Cut off.

[@Flow349]

Mon Gu Son he does just fine on it but i do think he needs a change of pace or just something different. This was different in the terms of trap beats but it still sounded like his sound if that makes sense. I just wanna hear cole over other production i think it could bring out an even better artist.

[@chrisringer5778]

F.L.O.W. What do y'all want from him. I'm so confused. Did anyone realize that he had something to say. This album is literally about addiction to, money, Hoes, social media and drugs ,but people still sound like they want Cole to hit y'all with double and triple entandres.

[@chrisringer5778]

[@lax398]

I feel like conceptually this was Cole’s strongest project, and it had all kinds of flows and beats on it. The only two songs I’m not really fuckin with sonically are The Cut Off and Photograph. The way he explores different facets of addiction and brings it all back around at the end with FRIENDS and Window Pain hit me hard, and it’s particularly relevant to this generation of young black kids who don’t talk about their problems and just self medicate. It handles the topic of addiction respectfully, offers J. Cole’s personal solution to doing drugs, and sounds good while doing it, so I’m fuckin wit it

[@kobe42085]

Listening to Feefo praise Cole while shitting on pretty much every album post 2000 on their classic hip hop reviews, is so on brand.

[@darriongarrett7236]

too be honest this is more well put together than anything he has done. the album has a nice amount of consistency for his message about drug addiction and vices. He dropped on 4/20 for a reason. Once an Addict (interlude) was an amazing song. It's main stream but it's cohesive. I needed something different and I like it.

J. Cole’s fans over sell him. J. Cole hypes himself up too much for his own good. No one else is good enough to feature on your album? What about his flow, lyricism, or storytelling is amazing? He is not a conscious rapper. He only has a handful of songs with very impressive themes or topics. Good album. Not great.

[@CodysFavorites]

UNEXPECTED DROP LETS GO edit: by the way this is a good album idc what anyone says

[@guccidonbuzzflightyear4440]

"Its a thing great but who gives a fuck" probably the best description of all the popular cole songs

[@NOBUJORDAN]

I'm not gonna talk shit about anyone of you guys. Ya'll are the best. But I do have to disagree. This is one of Cole's best albums imo. Sure what he's saying isn't necessarily "mind blowing" but since when did a concept have to blow your mind in order for you to learn something and enjoy it? I will say the first half is the weakest in terms of production and repetition, but the other half is some of Cole's best work. The way he flows on the tracks are amazing to me. Tbh, I think a lot of people downplay his wordplay as well. And whether you care about the concept or not, this is the most cohesive he's ever been with every track sticking to the topic of being addicted to something (with the exception of KOD. I just think he made that track to flex.) Yes, Cole can definitely benefit from a few features. I'm quite tired of it just being him too lol. But I still respect him for being himself. All in all I'm not mad that you guys don't like the album. (It's not very surprising. At this point you either like him or you don't.) But I just wish he got more props. Respect to all of you and no hate from me.

[@lastdonuts]

Honest question because I don't understand: Are you saying its one of his best because hes sticking to a concept better than he has in previous works? Because imo you can have the most cohesive album ever but still have it be boring. A weak first half and a good second half puts an album in average territory for me and the album concept wasn't executed so well that it elevated the album further beyond that ranking imo. Don't get me wrong, I like Cole, but just like with 4YEO I'm sitting on the sidelines wondering how people repeatedly call him the best yet are satisfied with what I think are only OK albums. If we praise his OK content as great what reason is there to get better? But that may be a different conversation

jaymmira Well while I said the first half was weaker due to the production and repetitiveness I don’t necessarily see it as bad. I still enjoy listening to it. But music is subjective so trying to convince you to like something you don’t enjoy is pointless. Now the reason I say this is one of his best is because of the consistency of the concept and the second half being so good that it outweighs the negative in the first half. But like I said, it’s subjective so we’re probably not gonna see eye to eye no matter how long we go back and forth.

I love the album and Cole. Y’all reviews of mainstream artists always seem to be the funniest.

[@bobaaacat]

I always get a laugh out of you all. I always go back to your videos. Your videos have been my working white-noise and I can quote some of your videos at this point.

"He dun freed out da trap!!" 😂😂😂🤣

[@notforvideos]

This is probably Cole's best album, my favourite is still FHD though. I feel like he's playing it safe and not branching out to work with others that could make him a better artist. I've said it before and I'll say it again, Kendrick's Untitled Unmastered was a bunch of TPAB throwaways and it's still a better project than anything Cole has put out. Cole needs to go back to the drawing board if he really wants to have real Hip-Hop heads fuck with him (He probably doesn't care though).

J cole does have good ideas but something about him does come off as boring.

[@armer3398]

Congrats on the studio! I remember the days of y'all meeting up on lunch break to review projects in the park #dehh4life

[@Jmart786]

Here come the cole stans disliking the video for no reason. PEOPLE, just cause they disagree with you isn't a good reason to downvote. Music is subjective, if they didn't like it they didn't like it, no need to get but-hurt. And its not like they said it sucked and thats it, they gave their own points and reasoning which I felt were viable.

I will NEVER tire of Myke destroying J Cole

[@nmj530]

I agree with Myke 💯 I first listened to this album at night and I swear it literally put me sleep it was so boring.

Romy Taylor This whole comment section biased.

J Cole's biggest strength is his ability to be relatable in a creative way

[@Bartholomule01]

People say Cole's biggest strength is being relatable then get mad when you say he's average. To relate is to be average. Too far above or below and you lose people.

[@bizarrenrugged3370]

Eminem is above average MC but is super relatable. Thats not an excuse.

[@light492]

@Romy Taylor well GKMC isn't relatable to the common person at all, and same with Section 80 IMO

[@gkay8889]

@@bizarrenrugged3370 was relatable..not is

[@Slesaint17]

Bartholomule01 relatable and average in lyrical CONTENT not in the lyricism, flow, rapping and Beats...JID’s two albums are better than anything Cole has ever put out and I love mixtape Cole...

[@loclapm]

KOD = Cole’s best project If you didn’t like Cole before. You won’t like him now.
