In many ways I got the idea of, and he was right; one listen reviews are fucking up hip-hop, and no one knew it better than me. I've been writing hip-hop album reviews since the days when major labels would send me a CD.in the mail.weeks before the album dropped.

EDITORS’ NOTES. Cole's third album is a huge leap forward, offering his most personal and willfully independent release to date. Titled after the North Carolina address where he grew up, 2014 Forest Hills Drive presents unflinchingly deep examinations of the rapper's coming-of-age years (“03’ Adolescence,” “No Role Modelz”).

But in recent year,s the album review game has mirrored American culture at large—faster and louder. Whether it's a rap song or an international political crisis, the media is now in an arms race to get an opinion up NOW and MAKE IT A HOT TAKE before the internet's toddler-level attention span wanders to the next topic. So is it really any surprise that we now get reviews calling an album a classic or complete trash the same day it drops? But the more I thought about J. Cole's tweet, the more I realized that it wasn't one listen album reviews that were fucking up hip-hop, not exactly. There's a first listen for every album (no shit), and everyone, whether you're a fan or a critic, has immediate reactions. Immediate reactions aren't fucked up, they're human.

What's fucked up is immediate reactions masquerading as in-depth, long-term analysis. So what if we stopped fronting? What if we were as transparent and open as possible? What if we pushed the 'one listen' concept to its extreme and forced ourselves to listen to an album straight through, no repeating tracks, and wrote our first take, gut-level reactions? Then we could do a follow-up review weeks later after we'd had time to really sit with the project. Maybe that'd be the best of both worlds, give people a place to talk about their immediate reactions too and give an album the time it deserves before we issue a more permanent pronouncement on its place in history.
