now it would be start cole, bench kendrick, taken out in a wheelchair drake but all time i’d go start kendrick bench drake taken out in a wheelchair cole 😅
Me too .. Im not comparing drake and Cole but this album is probably Jcoles best album, just like Nothing was the Same was Drake's best album I just get similar vibes from both albums and both have timeless tracks
People always miss the fact how 'Wet Dreamz' highlights the pressure, anxiety and insecurities young men face before their first ever intimate experience. It's not just a cheesy song with a nice beat.
literally i loved the song so much cause it reveals how much our societies makes what should be a genuine and chill experience for boys into smth that requires lying anxiety and faking
When Cole says "Check the birthdate, you ain't the god," he's also referring to the legendary rapper Rakim who's called the "God MC" and was also born on January 28th! 😃
Jan 28th is also the birthday of Rakim who is renowned as one of the best lyricists ever. He was a pioneer of rap who emerged in the late 80s and is known for being the first rap artist to sign for a million dollar contract (can I make a million off a rap tune)
i get emotional every time i listen to forest hills drive. i was going through a lot with this album at the time and every song is a different memory for me. i love cole, i love forest hills drive. it was a journey again. i enjoyed it a lot. thanks for the video 🙏🏻
I've seen Travis Scott, Kanye, Kendrick, Mac, Future and many others in concert, but my favorite rap show was J. Cole on his tour for this album. Dude came out on the stage and just sat on a barstool for the first few songs. He proceeded to perform the album front to back. Just such a great and intimate show.
What's so impressive about No Role Modelz is that it’s the only Diamond song without a music video I think. You guys mentioned it being a single it wasn’t I think J Coles even said In an interview that he never thought that song would blow up the way it did. It’s truly a song that got 2 billion listens just because people enjoyed it.
no role models aged so well... was living in Chicago when he made that song... i moved to LA in 2018 and quickly found out everything he was talking about in LA about how women move was true... that and chris brown "loyal" so true
2014 FHD is one of my favorite hip hop album of all time and I can't tell how many times I've listened to the Live version of it, it's such A GREAT VIBE. It magnified the album even more I recommend everybody to listen to the live version
Same! Every time I’ve seen him he’s rapped every single word bar for bar. Kendrick the same. Drake doesn’t rap or sing shit, dude too busy jumping around and holding the mic for the crowd to sing.
fun fact! in january 28th when he says “check the birthdate, you ain’t the god” he’s referring to the fact that he has the same birthday as rakim, a rapper in the early 2000s who was nicknamed ‘The God MC’. i’ve always loved that bar.
This album saved my life, it is one I appreciate and listen to every December , it shined light in my darkest time in high school, thank you for the reaction 🤍
Love Yourz has always been my fav, but I still bump Apparently and Jan 18th. Dope Jams, dope video as well. J Cole with the bars, profound story telling,... Love the album! Cheers, Thanks for the upload!
Great album. Great reaction. This albums theme is that of Cole's life. Starts with him being born on Jan 28th and follows his life thru growing up in Fayetteville, NC and then moving to NYC to pursue his rap career and dreams. And then ultimately making it to the top to realize everything he always needed, he already had. Love Yourz.
As a non-born english speaker your vidéos are helping me to understand album you react to ! I often vibin to album but i don't really understand the lyrics...thank you !
so refreshing watching these videos, of someone listening to an album for the first time. brings me back to when i first heard them, capturing that fresh feeling of classics.
@@guitubagrips9719 Me and your girl have 3 kids and a very nice life. We have Yolanda’s Quinceñera tomorrow after Church and the Davis’ Memorial Day BBQ on Monday. I usually golf on Sundays but my friend is in Cancun for a bachelor party so my golf group postponed. Think we’ll just get home after the party, make some popcorn, and talk about how you’re a broke cuck with a cocktail weenie in your MeUndies.
Since you guys enjoyed this album, i would recommend his next album "4 your eyez only" . Its a lot more introspective and deep, with great lyrics and production .
As I was watching I saw that you noticed the two perspectives in A tale in 2 cities. He raps from the His perspective in Wet dreamz, but at the end it's from the girls perspective also when he sings the bridge/ chorus.
Man first concert ive ever been to was forest hills drive tour in tampa. Big sean also opened for him. One of the best nights of my life. Classic album. Honestly think 4 your eyez only is his other masterpiece!
A tale of 2 citiez: the story is that since his friend got robbed in the first verse, he’s decided that this is his only option to achieve the nice life that he’s dreaming of in the first verse (white picket fence with some trees). It’s kind of like describing how people come to the “kill or be killed” mentality in underrepresented neighbourhoods in America. If that’s all you’re accustomed to, then it’s easy to fall into that kind of lifestyle.
4 Your Eyez Only Reaction is needed. In my opinion, his greatest album, especially the whole storyline behind it! Would genuinely be great to see you guys react to it
The rest of his discography is a must also if you want singles to react too his freestyles on radio stations while not being full songs are so incredible
it's always super fun to react someone reacting to this album for the first time. takes me back to how amazed i was when i listened a long time ago. please react to the infamous by mobb deep (since you mentioned that other amazing album). loved the video! can't wait for the next uploads :)
This came out when I was in HS and when I just started driving so this was in constant aux rotation. Its an album that brings me back and helps me reminisce. Def his magnus opus Yall should Man on the Moon thank u bye
LMFAO “there’ll always be a bitch that’s better out there on the tours” “NOpe. Not true! Can’t relate” 😂😂 you guys are silly as shit, please do more reactions
i know it’s such a basic opinion but Love Yourz is one of the most beautiful and powerful songs i’ve heard. i wonder how many lives that song has saved.
I live in Fayetteville. He doesn’t own the 2014 Forrest hills Dr house anymore. The government condemned the property due to the tourist activity and trespassing. It has a gate and cameras surrounding it now… IMPACT
I don't think I've even listened to that whole "Hello" song before and again... Avid J. Cole fan and favorite rapper (alive Biggie is the GOAT) so don't feel bad Molly
Would love if you guys shouted out the producers of the songs you react to. I realize this is a huge personal nitpick lmao so I'm sorry in advance but since the production is such a huge part of the listening experience and yall put a lot of appreciation into the production, it would be cool for the people behind it to be recognized
i feel like i acknowledge producers a lot in other videos but youre right, not so much in this one. its hard to keep stuff in mind at the moment but will try better. thank you bro 🙏🏼

i get so much nostalgia with this album
Hello dat 🐐

Me too .. Im not comparing drake and Cole but this album is probably Jcoles best album, just like Nothing was the Same was Drake's best album I just get similar vibes from both albums and both have timeless tracks
JCOLE?
JERMAINE?
COLE?
2014 Forest Hills Drive is a great album, arguably his best depending on the person 👀
😂😂
facts my guy... 2014 FHD, off season are incredible bodies of work ever
There is a documentary to this album, he had on HBO. Worth watching and will make you appreciate the album even more.
Everyday of freshman year 💯
4 your eyez only will never be top
People always miss the fact how 'Wet Dreamz' highlights the pressure, anxiety and insecurities young men face before their first ever intimate experience. It's not just a cheesy song with a nice beat.
Tell that to Fantano 😂💀
@@JuniorHandleong😭
literally i loved the song so much cause it reveals how much our societies makes what should be a genuine and chill experience for boys into smth that requires lying anxiety and faking
@@emanuelekunkler7789 eh, it ain't that serious.
@@youcallmejr4683 did you speak to j cole?
When Cole says "Check the birthdate, you ain't the god," he's also referring to the legendary rapper Rakim who's called the "God MC" and was also born on January 28th! 😃
Fun Fact : Forest Hills drive was recorded using a sock and earphones . NO professional equipment was used in the making of this whole album
im expecting you to drop fun facts in every video moving forward
Dang! That's inspiring as heck
REAL BRO
rumours say cole kept that sock from wet dreamz days
@@vazsa7387😂😂😂
Jan 28th is also the birthday of Rakim who is renowned as one of the best lyricists ever. He was a pioneer of rap who emerged in the late 80s and is known for being the first rap artist to sign for a million dollar contract (can I make a million off a rap tune)
Also referred to as the god mc adding to your point!
Thank you for writing this one down, saved me the hassle.
Y'all are such a pleasant couple. A breath of fresh air on youtube. Both of you are very insightful and calming, too.
Completely agree with this.
i get emotional every time i listen to forest hills drive. i was going through a lot with this album at the time and every song is a different memory for me. i love cole, i love forest hills drive. it was a journey again. i enjoyed it a lot. thanks for the video 🙏🏻
I want to see JID - The Forever Story so bad man
YESSS
Pleaseeee
This☝🏽
"J.Cole f*cks with me", thank you J.Cole 😂
This is my favourite album of all time, every song is a classic.
facts even the outro, not a single miss
we can tell from your pfp
This album helped me through a lot, it was my little brother favorite album as well. Glad y’all enjoyed this album.
"You know how you sound right now, if you weren't my mans i would think that you're a clown right now" that line and what comes after is pure mastery.

Dude came out on the stage and just sat on a barstool for the first few songs. He proceeded to perform the album front to back. Just such a great and intimate show.
Yes!! Cole is one of the best live artists in rap

Keep saying wow we love it! It’s your signature never change that!
She is gonna love "4 Your Eyez Only"
2014 FHD is one of my favorite hip hop album of all time and I can't tell how many times I've listened to the Live version of it, it's such A GREAT VIBE. It magnified the album even more I recommend everybody to listen to the live version
I’m not the biggest J Cole fan in the world but this is a modern classic in my eyes
His flow and the mood he sets up in his album is unmatched
Damn If I were a J. Cole fan I'd be screaming in excitement rn 🙃...
(has J. Cole as his phone wallpaper rn 😳)
2024 and this album still sounds more fresh than anything thats come out since... J.cole 🔥
My first ever concert was J Cole's Forest Hills Drive Tour, this album is an absolute classic. Really enjoyed your reactions!
Same! Every time I’ve seen him he’s rapped every single word bar for bar. Kendrick the same. Drake doesn’t rap or sing shit, dude too busy jumping around and holding the mic for the crowd to sing.
Great video. Loved watching this on a Sunday morning. Seeing people experiencing Cole for the first time is a great reaction series.
we need a man on the moon reaction
Frfrfrfr the motm triology as whole 😭😭
YESSSS
YESSSS
Agree!
Yesssssss
modern day CLASSIC. one of the best albums of the 2010s, one of the best rap albums of all time. perfection in my eyes😮💨🐐
33:38 Seamless transition here. Excellent editing 👍

L'accent révélateur

He chooses good albums with good lyrics. Perfect to learn
@@Josh-dy4lq Yeah, that's what I think too !
j’ai vu le “é” j’ai dit à archie “il est francophone c’est sûr” et voilà haha very cool d’avoir des viewers francophones 🙏🏼
This album had such a huge impact on me. Thanks for the reaction I love reliving my first time hearing it through others.
This album is a masterpiece it's up top with illmatic and graduation
And reasonable doubt

I usually golf on Sundays but my friend is in Cancun for a bachelor party so my golf group postponed.
Think we’ll just get home after the party, make some popcorn, and talk about how you’re a broke cuck with a cocktail weenie in your MeUndies.
Calling Ye Mid is so fucking ridiculous
Love you guys. Glad Molly enjoyed Cole on this project and the album as a whole. Please do 4 Your Eyez Only and The Off Season! 🙏
4 your eyez only is a must
I like the fact that your videos are like movies because they have amazing replay value.
Man this album saved my life from friends, depression, etc I played in my whole senior year in 2016 ! It definitely wholes a special place in my heart
Since you guys enjoyed this album, i would recommend his next album "4 your eyez only" . Its a lot more introspective and deep, with great lyrics and production .
my favorite cole album
Oooh, so happy you listened to this. One of my favorite albums ever! 🔥
Goosebumps 10 years later , idk where the time went
I’m 4 minutes in and this is my new favorite channel
One of the most influential and defining albums of my youth. Still holds up today.
Loved how your wife kept laughing cutely at the Wet Dreams lyrics, she's so gorgeous
We need more J Cole
I love seeing your reactions. Y’all are so well spoken. Keep it up. Also she is GORGEOUS. No disrespect lol
dont watch alot of reaction videosusually, but you two have a very genuine and cool vibe. Was very fun! Please keep it up, much love from germany
As I was watching I saw that you noticed the two perspectives in A tale in 2 cities. He raps from the His perspective in Wet dreamz, but at the end it's from the girls perspective also when he sings the bridge/ chorus.
tried to catch you slippin @50:15 lmaoooooo
😭
Man first concert ive ever been to was forest hills drive tour in tampa. Big sean also opened for him. One of the best nights of my life. Classic album. Honestly think 4 your eyez only is his other masterpiece!
This is the album that got me into rap back in 2014
Platinum with no features and barely any advertisements in the era of CD's!
St. Tropez is my fave off 2014FHD, mostly due to the attachment of a deeply personal experience i have with it
A tale of 2 citiez: the story is that since his friend got robbed in the first verse, he’s decided that this is his only option to achieve the nice life that he’s dreaming of in the first verse (white picket fence with some trees).

4 Your Eyez Only Reaction is needed. In my opinion, his greatest album, especially the whole storyline behind it! Would genuinely be great to see you guys react to it
The rest of his discography is a must also if you want singles to react too his freestyles on radio stations while not being full songs are so incredible
Definitely gotta do Friday night lights and the warm up by Cole
it's always super fun to react someone reacting to this album for the first time. takes me back to how amazed i was when i listened a long time ago. please react to the infamous by mobb deep (since you mentioned that other amazing album). loved the video! can't wait for the next uploads :)
lets go! i've been waiting for this one
This is a top 5 album ever for me, it means so much to me and the lyricism is brilliant, love the listen!
CLASSIC ALBUMMM!!
hands down best j.cole album and top 5 albums oat imo🔥
I have to say Forrest Hill Drive is my favourite of his Albums.
The constantly little “mmm”’s are so funny LOL😊
new favorite channel discovered!
obligatory Reasonable Doubt by JAYZ request
This came out when I was in HS and when I just started driving so this was in constant aux rotation. Its an album that brings me back and helps me reminisce. Def his magnus opus
Yall should Man on the Moon thank u bye
The woman’s Wet Dreamz reaction was so real. The story of the song is so funny which is another reason why I love the song
But true this what half men go through in there first time
Great reaction, some brighter lighting would be nice but I love audio quality! Thank you for making this 🔥
We need a 4 your eyez only reaction for J Cole next pls!
Such an important people to so many my age, nothing but good high school memories with it
the perfect girl sample in the song a tale of 2 citiez. I love
You guys should check out “For You Eyes Only” - it’s a concept album he wrote about his friend. It’s very incredible.
Amazing reaction, love y’all
LMFAO “there’ll always be a bitch that’s better out there on the tours” “NOpe. Not true! Can’t relate” 😂😂 you guys are silly as shit, please do more reactions
Easily on of my favorite rap album to listen to very relatable. The body of work was amazing from start to finish.
I loved this reaction, new subscriber!!!
The writing on this album is as top tier as it gets
One of the greatest artists oat 🛐🔥
THE REAL IS BACK,THE VILLE IS BACK
need a college dropout reaction its my favorite ye album and it has such a great story and so many bangers and funny bars
2014 changed my perspectives on life along with 4 your eyez only
Y’all should react to Vince Staples- Summertime 06’
or his self titled album "Vince Staples" my personal favorite of his!
I’m really fuckin with these reactions of albums that I loved as a teenager
My favourite Cole album hands down
love you guys!
Just stumbled on the channel and you gained a new sub, great video and great production! Keep up the great work!
the only thing that's been missing in Cole's music lately is THIS type of production, soulful production.
January 28 is also the birthday of Rhakim, lengendary rapper also known as the God MC. So yes, J. Cole is implying that he was born for this.
Awesomeness, this is great! 😊🙏🏾💯❤️
i know it’s such a basic opinion but Love Yourz is one of the most beautiful and powerful songs i’ve heard. i wonder how many lives that song has saved.
