A-M-A-Z-I-N-G. --Damn, you can just tell how much this song meant to both of them. The original Let Nas down (which was great in it of itself), the reaction from Nas, then the twitter convo they h

Well, Hip Hop is such a diverse genre, I'm pretty sure you can't narrow it down to a contestation and social critique even though most of what was hip hop in the early 90's actually stemmed from it.

Last year I was at an after-party of Jay Z's in London which I got into since my mum's younger cousin DJ's for quite a few hip-hop moguls and was hosting this particular party. (I just stood awkwardly

J Cole's 2014 Forest Hill Drive is v gd imo.

Yr opinions?

It's like a album/mixtape-hybrid, largely down to an absence of manufactured singles and the generic album formula's that usually plague them. Cole kept it relatively safe though, no moments of madness lyrically or sound-wise 'bar one line', which is a slight let down for me; fully justified though, considering where he's at after 1 and 2.

03' Adolescence, Fire Squad, G.O.M.D & Apparently stand out for me, it's not really that type of album though. On Born Sinner.. Villuminati & Let Nas Down stood out like sore thumbs from the rest, which wasn't a good thing. On FHD the rhymes, production and hooks all pack a punch and sync well together, they feel like one organism.

I think it's his best album yet. Some songs really caught my attention, unlike on his first 2 albums.

I thought it was his best album yet. Solid from beginning to end, personal, lyrical, but he wasn't trying too hard. I really don't like "Let Nas Down" I felt like he was trying too hard. I heard J Cole for the first time the day The Warm Up dropped, this album is what I expected, he reached his potential with this album, imo.

What do you think of Big K.R.I.T's new album? I think it's one of the 3 best albums of the year.

Cole's FHD album sold 361,120 with no single and low-key last minute promotion. Whilst Nicki Minaj's 'pink print' (huge marketing budget, + a bunch of singles) sold a mere 106,000, wow.
