Just listened to Born Sinner and stopped listening after his bit about f*ggots in "Villuminati." He sounds wack like Cam'ron but at least Cam'ron is enjoyable.
Ooh, I just tied it. :x
I voted Born Sinner. I'm not a J Cole fan, but just before Yeezus leaked, I heard Forbidden Fruit from Born Sinner, featuring Kendrick Lamar, and after Yeezus leaked, I listened to the rest of Born Sinner, and I think it has better repeat value already :x
Yeezus. Born Sinner is a corny snooze fest as a whole, Let Nas Down is one of the worst songs I've heard in a long time, and Land of the Snakes has one of the most unintentionally creepy lines of all time. J. Cole has literally nothing to contribute to the musical landscape.
It's really hard for me to choose. I love Born Sinner for the lyricism & Yeezus for the production. I like them both equally. Born Sinner is much more of a traditional hip hop album to me while Yeezus is more of a mood piece & comes across as a soundtrack.
Though Yeezus' lyrics are very unimpressive, Born Sinner is just way too bloated.
