    He's too big to do meet and greets. Ye, Drake, Hov, Nas nobody does meet and greets lol and that isn't the way to get his message across. He just needs to be more active, do more interviews, post more on his socials and more importantly drop music more frequently and actually promote it with music videos and interesting documentaries. The 5 part HBO doc for FHD really dope but this Eyez one was completely boring.

    IB is managing Cole well behind the scenes though, Cole owns his own masters now which not many artists do.

    Is Cole even signed anymore? 4YEO was released under Dreamville with exclusive license to Rocnation.

    Cole is in a spot in his career where he can do whatever he wants. If you go back and listen to his old interviews during his press runs for albums, he always talked about wanting to do more, but he couldn't because the label wouldn't let him. He wanted to do a doc or some type of film for Born Sinner, he always talked about these random ideas he had for music videos and s---.

    But he was too busy trying to find something to please the label or please his peers and always got shot down by the label. Let Nas Down was evident of that and he was really concerned about album sales and felt a ton of pressure to be very successful as Jay's first Roc Nation artist.

    Now he has creative freedom and really does not give a f--- about anything. He doesn't even put out singles or try to push his songs lol. He got tired of all the fame. His verse on Neighbors kind of hinted at that and FHD was essentially about him hating Hollywood. He's been an open book the last few years, we know so much about him to where it's kind of crazy, though I wish he would do a few more interviews and speak on social issues, I'm fine with him being away and quiet like this.

    This might have been posted in the forum already, but not sure how many of y'all in here watching Insecure, but on the season finale this song played. I had never heard of Childish Major before that. I've been hooked on this song since I heard it and I just found out Cole produced this.

    This beat is good and another example of Cole giving out his best s---.
