    He raised the bar high even for himself. I can't imagine his next album

    Naw, FNL and TWU are better, but barely.

    But yeah, Jan 28th is some good s---. In Cole's top 10. I'm sure you already have, but check out Cole Summer if you haven't. Very similar vibes.

    I've heard everything by Cole.

    FNL and FHD are really hard for me to say which one is better.

    Yeah, I agree. Part of the reason I give the nod to FNL is the nostalgia. The time and place I was at/in when that was out.... I miss it. But then again. FHD was my freshman year of college, which was the most fun I've ever had in my life haha. It's so f---ing hard to pick, especially when you literally like everything Cole puts out and have been there since day 1.

    Timing of your life and music can go a long way.

    Fnl came out before one of my Friday night games. Literally doqnlaoded it and listened to it on the 2 hr bus drive to my game. Bruh. The intro had a n----- in the zone. Perfect timing in my life. Still think the warm up is better though :kobe:

    I relate a lot of the mood of songs on this album to different times of day (while the album also shows a general progression of time over years).

    January 28th is great. For me, it's like a very early dawn. Back when I was having trouble sleeping and would watch the sun slowly rise and the sky slowly lighten, it was my favorite time to listen to it.

    Definitely a fav from Cole.

    Good things come from Japan.

    And that song is so Japanese it's ridiculous.

    J. Cole has great samples honestly.
