According to Genius, “The album follows the story of a fictional character, James McMillian Jr, as he goes from selling crack, to falling in love and starting a family. If you listen closely to the lyrics, or you could just visit Genius, he tells an incredible story. Although skimping on songs, the album delivers on production and story telling. The musical arrangements are dope and his making-of documentary, Eyez, has allowed me to appreciate the production even more seeing all that went into the album. No doubt, the production for 4 Your Eyez Only is great. Just as Cole called out Wale in “False Prophets”–my criticism isn’t coming from a place of hate but from a place of love and appreciation for someone and knowing there’s greater in them. I despise folks who are unable to give their honest opinion on an artist’s work because they love them so much and feel like it’s some sort of betrayal to say anything that isn’t perceived as positive. Coming from a Cole STAN, this was not his best work and I’m not afraid to say it. With only ten songs, 4 Your Eyez Only is short and seems unfinished. In my opinion his sophomore album, Born Sinner, was better. I am currently in a place of appreciating this project and being a little underwhelmed.

Peep the featureless album tracklist below available for streaming via Spotify and Apple Music: I pre-ordered the album as soon as news broke and have probably listened to the album, at minimum, 10 times since it dropped! If you know me you know I have been waiting foreverrrr for the return of the real. Today, well last night at approximately 11:10pm (pre-order drop status), Cole dropped his fourth studio album, 4 Your Eyez Only. Cole or as I like to call him, Coley Cole, has finally returned with another featureless album following his double-platinum-with-no-features third album, 2014 Forest Hills Drive.
