    Not saying this it is fact that Cole won 2014 but sources aren't my eyes. Drake and young thug had a great year as well but only one rapper released an actual album and went gold in 2 weeks.

    Right because rapping about the Shaniya Davis incident or Michael Brown are any less significant :comeon:

    Again I'm not saying Twitter is facts but no other project had more buzz or hype than Cole and that's because he's the only big artist that dropped.

    Who's talking about significance? I'm saying that moment during Kanye's track (and the following outro) are greater than anything I've ever heard by Cole. And that's not even questionable in my mind
    I'd quit while you're ahead. You're proving your own bias/ignorance

    Cole won 2014. Single handedly put artist development back in the game. Killed the labels and showed that building a fan base is way more important than a caychy single. These are all factual statements. One thing I will say though, coles music is predictable. One of the reasons be free was so loved was because it was so left from a typical Cole song. FHD was more of the same from cole, just better. Kanye always out here doing unpredictable things, everyone wanted a b-----r for New Years, instead he gave us one of his most personal songs ever. Beautiful.

    Honestly chill...

    You're completely overrating one sentimental line and some nice keys to follow...

    How you make that judgement after one day is baffling and I know you're being serious which is fine, but just stop. This isn't even a top 10 kanye song based off first impressions.

    >asks how im judging a song after just a day
    >judges song based on first impressions


    Everyone judges things off first impressions, you're just defensive because im use Cole's work as a point of reference.

    Also, my first impressions have almost always served me well, so ill see you down the road when this is a a top 10 Kanye song of all time

    thats literally all I'm saying. I like the song too and think it's beautiful. I'm just trying to understand how that's even THAT great of a line.

    How @Narsh? (Rhetorical question) You talk s--- about Cole and then when I call you out for championing an artist who 95% of the time you can't even understand what he's saying, I'm proving IGNORANCE? Ignorance means without knowledge. I'm completely knowledgable.

    He's singing from his late mother's POV. She's asking Kanye and Kim to tell their daughter about her grandmother. How the f--- is that anything BUT undeniably beautiful?

    At first, it sounded to me as if he was asking Kim to tell their daughter about what her dads actually like, not the media perceptions she'll grow up with

    But then I realized it was from his mom's POV
