J Cole’s Forest Hills Drive Album review
J Coles new album Forest Hills drive has the fire that could put him on the “throne” of rap. This new album of his clearly separates his new work from his old work going from a try hard main stream artist trying to please the music community on their taste of music instead of spilling his own sound kind of rapper, to a now self-pronounced “rap king” In his new album J Cole goes back way back to his childhood, life struggles ,relationships and reflecting on his life , as well as criticizing several other popular music figures from recent rap controversy’s , as well as working very well with other rappers in several of his songs that give his album a distinct touch that separates it from common rap albums that just talk about the fake rap life style or whatever the media wants to hear. Even though his album receives some negative comments and reviews. Hands down the way J Cole put together this album is sure to make his mentor Nas Proud.
Ever since J Cole dropped his new album a people have been slashing on his working saying that he is too young in his career to be claiming such big things as being a “self-proclaimed king” or that he has snatched the crown and made the next big sound. A lot of popular rappers on the other hand have been congratulating the young artist on the big success of his new album and considering him as an elite rapper and look forward to seeing what he can preach in the future. J Cole has come a long way from his first album he dropped in 2011 “The sideline Story” which was all about how he made it to fame and struggles in his life while he was rising to fame. This album didn’t receive too many harsh remarks for the most part it received positive ones on how to build on his young promising career. His second album “Born sinner” which dropped in 2013 focused more on pleasing the crowd, made a lot of radio friendly singles in this album to name a few “power trip” “crooked
