"It’s a good album and for the most part, it’s a solid project. Is it the best J. Cole project? I think Friday Night Lights is better but this one is up there. He was smart to make project without any feats. I personally don’t like feats, when I hear a hip hop album, I’m there to hear it all from ..." [+] Reply

"Phenomenal first half of the album, stylized electro pop perfectly executed with a great mix of voices and really interesting arangements, the second half is not as brilliant although it stills has a lot of class..." Reply

"This album present to us something we would never think about. the good side of the sad breakup of Oasis. On his gigs, Noel always starts with "(It's Good) To Be Free" and this contrasts with the freedom of his talent with the end of Oasis. The best songs of Noel Gallagher since the end of the 90..."

"This is just Tom Waits doing what Tom Waits does best. Making incredible music. He’s never been one to soar across the radio and be incredibly well known, but those who do know him can really appreciate his genius. He’s got a voice that one may call an acquired taste, but if you can look past tha..." [+] Reply

"It isn't my thing. I don't enjoy this type of music much, but this album excels at what it does, so I would highly recommend it to anyone who enjoyed the xx or this genre of music. I'll be sharing it with my friends who I know love this type of music because it is excellent for what it is, but pe..." [+] Reply

"I have to say, major kudos to The Roots for taking on the challenge of a rap concept album and doing incredibly well with it. Black Thought really amazes me with his rapping, it truly can be poetic. There’s even a short little instrumental suite at the end of the album that really finishes off th..." [+] Reply
