Favourite tracks
- 01 Wet Dreamz The most honest song about being sixteen and pretending you're not.
- 02 No Role Modelz The one I know every word of whether I mean to or not.
- 03 Apparently The pep talk I give myself on the bad days.
- 04 Love Yourz The closing argument the whole album was building toward.
My note
The title comes from the house Cole grew up in, and the record keeps returning to home, ambition and what success is meant to fix. There are no guest verses, so it feels like one long conversation.
I came for the singles and stayed for the whole album. I play it when I want company without being hyped up or told everything will be fine.
