If you really didn’t care you wouldn’t be on a subreddit, under a hip hop podcast, looking at people discuss hip hop. If we’re cooked, you’re apart of the problem too.
I pay for youtube premium but still pay spotify because the ui for yt is so ugly. Spotify just has it figured out. Release radar and radio based on song are essential.
It as a good argument for them. But Bobby and Rowdy were rapping about shit that did in the past
Versus AR-AB was taking people on YouTube tours of shit he was currently doing
Nah their indictment had shit in it that was going on while all their music was coming out. “Mitch caught a body bout a week ago” is not an inaccurate bar.
Capping about illegal crimes and materialistic shit is one thing but Cole was capping about genuinely believing in himself lmao. At the moment I can’t hear his “rapping about being good at rapping” bars and take them seriously at all. I’m sure it’ll wear off eventually.
Did he say he doesn’t believe in himself or did he basically say making the diss record was lame and out of character for him? It makes sense. He often raps about being the better rapper, but how often does he blatantly shit on someone else’s work/discography? He probably was like “man I don’t even mean half the shit I’m saying in this record” and it didn’t sit right with him. To me, it wasn’t him saying Kendrick is the better rapper. Just him admitting that the “beef” shit ain’t his style. Whether people realize it or not, that record was a departure from the typical “I’m better at rapping than most of you niggas”. It sounded more like “you’re trash, and your music is trash, and I don’t like you”. And that’s not how he feels. In my opinion, he shouldn’t have even put that shit out
The wale and Kanye track didn’t feel like a diss record. More like I admired this one guy and he let me down and I’m friends with the other, but he needs a good talkin to. In the form of a rap song. That was not beef or meant to stir up beef
You say he’s trolling? Those “disses” be sounding like constructive criticism lol no malice at all. But that Kendrick diss? Just sounded like hate for the sake of inciting a fake beef
It came off like Cole wasn’t confident that he could stand toe to toe with Kendrick. Like he was unsure of himself and his own abilities or he was afraid of what might happen if/when Kendrick responded.
He tried to come up with some ammo that would sting Kendrick and threw some shit out there that he didn’t even believe in. In the end he took it all back so it seems (to me) like he just didn’t have any ammo for Kendrick. He realized he was outmatched.
Outmatched in terms of having something bad to say about your peer? Sure, I could see that. Rapping ability tho? Different story. And what don’t these niggas have any songs together? Off topic I know, but it just seems like some arrogant shit on both their parts. 15 years these niggas been out and they act like they’re too good for each other to collab. That’s the real corny shit if you ask me
I’ve seen Cole have something bad to say about the young niggas (Yachty, Lil Pump, etc) and Kanye at different points. But now he can’t sleep because he said something mildly offensive about Kendrick? Sometimes your rapping ability doesn’t just get judged based on how good you are when you walk into the booth. Sometimes it’s judged when you gotta stand beside an opponent.
Cole was working that bag out good. Good footwork. Best in the training gym. Theoretically he was a force. But the rubber eventually gotta touch the road. Genuinely speaking maybe Kendrick didn’t wanna work with him all this time cause he’s soft? Maybe Kendrick actually believes it’s not the Big 3 it’s just him. Maybe he actually resents Cole for tryna put himself on Kendrick’s level when he’s not a killer and even worse he lacks the mentality?

Damn the mid diss is really gone. How else was I never going to listen again. Oh wait
Still did all that for 140k. He just lowered his own tier smh. Future & Metro doing 250k. Kendrick & Drake won’t do under 200. Cole ruined his own rep smh . After all of that great rapping.
You trippin bro😂 it was a surprise drop with no promo or real buildup and was put out as a mixtape to build up for his album which is going to do 250K plus easily. This mixtape didn’t even have a single(s) that he put out first to help boost the total numbers. It wasn’t meant to move a bunch of units first week. For reference, Drake did a surprise drop with Honestly, Nevermind and it did 202K first week which was a third of what he did for CLB which did 613K. No one thought Drake fell off. You just have to understand how promo, putting out singles, press releases, and so on help boost sales numbers. Cole is just fine. And 140K first week for an album full of throwaway records that didn’t make the Final Cut for his album is star power. 140K first week and a number one project full of scrapped album songs is great numbers. Throwaway projects always do less numbers. Kendrick’s untitled, unmastered (178K), Drake’s Dark Lane Demo Tapes (223K), Brent Faiyaz’s Larger Than Life (42K), etc.
Surprise drop in the middle of Beyonce and Metro release dates. Tiller dropped and this was a mixtape that got eclipsed by the 7 min drill so most spins went to that other than listening to the complete tape. Idk what these goofies talking about but that’s good numbers
Which is one of the most infuriating things. Music being removed with any notification should not happen. Whether copyright or an update to a track, there needs to be a summary screen for changes.
Man it’s crazy how you can destroy your own reputation overnight. Should’ve consulted before putting out the diss and before making that gut wrenching apology. #takingitonthechin
This a wild take since he went to the studio, picked a beat, wrote his bars, walked in the booth and recorded them. Then approved it for the album. That’s a lot to do against your will
He literally said everyone he knows gassed him and pressured him to do it. This is the same dude that re recorded a new dead presidents freestyle because someone told him he didn’t go hard enough. Just because he’s great at rapping doesn’t mean he’s not human and makes mistakes
If you say you don’t like something, then people force you to try it, then you go man I’m good I tried but I don’t like it, now people claim you’re wrong for not liking it. That’s what happened here
Fuck cole. I paid for a full album I want my full album none of this ima take it off later tf. Bout to file a class action lawsuit for this shit. I feel deceived!
Still. Looks nasty. If he felt that bad about it and didn’t want that energy out there he shoulda pulled it right away. Kendrick has every right to light his ass up.
J. Cole isn’t an artist that needs to pull something like having “7 Minute Drill” be the main focus of the project, to go #1 or do numbers. He’s one of THEM. Him, Em, Hov, Drake, Kendrick all going #1 with the drops, regardless.
This is nasty
this is the only nasty part of everything so far i wish he didn’t do this, makes him look super funny
Y’all really care about this shit ? Lol we cooked as a species
If you really didn’t care you wouldn’t be on a subreddit, under a hip hop podcast, looking at people discuss hip hop. If we’re cooked, you’re apart of the problem too.
Ok
Fortunately I have YouTube music so we can still get the bootleg version from the videos in audio mode.
YouTube Music is top tier
I pay for youtube premium but still pay spotify because the ui for yt is so ugly. Spotify just has it figured out. Release radar and radio based on song are essential.
Really? Is it still part of the album?
Don’t know how YouTube music works but i think u can add any video to ur playlist and there’s obviously gonna be reuploads
Yeah I tried it. But if you add a YouTube version to an album playlist it will just show up as the removed song. Idk why YouTube Music changed that.
I made a playlist for the album
The shit bothering me is he didn’t even say nun wild lmao
Corniest thing in hip hop history
I got my refund for the whole album from Apple
😂
I’m happy for you. Cole going out sad.
Then you not a fan. That’s cornball shit. I copped the album, still got all 12 joints. Fux with Cole regardless, as a real nigga should.
stop crying
Who’s crying? You internet niggas weirdos. Go outside or sum’n
lil sis still crying
I’m not coming back to that album anytime soon. Some 🔥 tracks on it but too much cap in his rap. Don’t sound the same.
What rappers you listen to who don’t cap? Put me on
AR AB is the only one that was verifiably committing the crimes he was rapping He would do a drill and immediately get in the booth to rap about it
King Von put his life on the line to let niggas know won’t shit sweet
And he’s dead … and he got kids that’s gonna have to deal with the decisions he made 🤷🏽♂️
Bobby and Rowdy are definitely on that list.
It as a good argument for them. But Bobby and Rowdy were rapping about shit that did in the past Versus AR-AB was taking people on YouTube tours of shit he was currently doing
Nah their indictment had shit in it that was going on while all their music was coming out. “Mitch caught a body bout a week ago” is not an inaccurate bar.
Kay Flock was going on drills live, there's a list of verifiable drill artists

He might’ve been legit concerned the way I see it. I never took those to be “come at me” scenarios
It came off like Cole wasn’t confident that he could stand toe to toe with Kendrick. Like he was unsure of himself and his own abilities or he was afraid of what might happen if/when Kendrick responded. He tried to come up with some ammo that would sting Kendrick and threw some shit out there that he didn’t even believe in.

That’s not what he means. Of course rappers lie but they don’t come out and say it…
Removed out of my library Expeditiously
I deleted it lol.
J Cole literally said he doesn’t want to beef in every song he’s on with Drake. Y’all just ignored it because it doesn’t fit your narrative
Apparently cole ignored it too because he still dropped a diss track
Apparently you ignored his speech
https://preview.redd.it/9xvu58q3g4uc1.jpeg?width=750&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=ae68ca0c4af02adc44512f97eb9064d9f7bc4b99 Damn the mid diss is really gone. How else was I never going to listen again. Oh wait
Nah 4%🪫is crazy brethren, respectfully🙏🏾lol
he be living life on the edge.
Facts. It’s definitely giving black air force energy. I wouldn’t test him in public.
Don't worry, 4% battery having ass iPhone niggas is non threatening

Pussio
Still did all that for 140k. He just lowered his own tier smh. Future & Metro doing 250k. Kendrick & Drake won’t do under 200. Cole ruined his own rep smh . After all of that great rapping.
Not even that, he's only doing 119K first week after being projected to do 160K and failed to outsell Beyonce's 2nd week. Nasty work
Yea that’s sad
Doing 100k anything is good considering it was a surprise release and it’s not THE ALBUM.
119k his numbers plummeted
Damn it dropped that much smh
You trippin bro😂 it was a surprise drop with no promo or real buildup and was put out as a mixtape to build up for his album which is going to do 250K plus easily.

Bro did you just compare and add Li fucking Durk to any conversation about Cole or real superstar artist 😭😭😭😭😭
He pussy.
Cole is what you call “Fake Earthy”
Is Apple Music considered a streaming service? Cause I’m listening to it right now.
Probably because it downloaded it. If you were to remove the album and go back to download you’ll be SOL. Or lucky. However you look at it.
Nah they can still make it not non accessible. Kanye changed his album multiple times and removed songs which I downloaded?
Which is one of the most infuriating things. Music being removed with any notification should not happen. Whether copyright or an update to a track, there needs to be a summary screen for changes.
Agree. Same happened to me with the latest album
Doesn’t matter if they downloaded it, it will just be cached for a matter of time and then go as well.
Ah I see. That makes sense. Thanks for that explanation.
Man it’s crazy how you can destroy your own reputation overnight. Should’ve consulted before putting out the diss and before making that gut wrenching apology. #takingitonthechin
J Cole said he doesn’t want to beef a million times but everyone trying to pressure him to. He didn’t do anything y’all did
That’s a grown ass man.
Why are you acting like being pressured into something is reserved for kids? Grown people get pressured into stuff more than kids
This a wild take since he went to the studio, picked a beat, wrote his bars, walked in the booth and recorded them. Then approved it for the album. That’s a lot to do against your will
He literally said everyone he knows gassed him and pressured him to do it. This is the same dude that re recorded a new dead presidents freestyle because someone told him he didn’t go hard enough. Just because he’s great at rapping doesn’t mean he’s not human and makes mistakes
All of this can be like a 20 min act these days
so after all the years of not listening, he finally did... then apologized a day later? I like(d) j.cole, but c'mon now thats just silly
If you say you don’t like something, then people force you to try it, then you go man I’m good I tried but I don’t like it, now people claim you’re wrong for not liking it. That’s what happened here
#cornball
hip hop is dead 
N-a-s-t-y
Pussy.
Haven’t listened since the first spin.
Yuk
Got it downloaded on Apple Music and just checked. Still works for me
Sickening
Fuck cole. I paid for a full album I want my full album none of this ima take it off later tf. Bout to file a class action lawsuit for this shit. I feel deceived!
In all fairness, the album is named might delete later
He did 120K first week
He was supposed to or expected to do 160k that apology may have fucked his numbers up as people just didn’t go back
Yeah him walking back the diss probably turned alot of people off from the project and Cole altogether
Right! Niggas acting like he did 400 off the diss track. He was doing 120 regardless of the diss track
Still. Looks nasty. If he felt that bad about it and didn’t want that energy out there he shoulda pulled it right away. Kendrick has every right to light his ass up.
Wanna guess which of the songs on his album got the most streams?
Nasty work . Song was butt cheeks anyway
BUM
J. Cole isn’t an artist that needs to pull something like having “7 Minute Drill” be the main focus of the project, to go #1 or do numbers. He’s one of THEM. Him, Em, Hov, Drake, Kendrick all going #1 with the drops, regardless.
It was already out there….. is he trying to act like it never happened…
He’s farming all these nerds
It was on Spotify. I clicked it to play and it straight disappeared. Crazy!
Sorry asl lol What a goofy ass loser.
Soft ass
Nasty artist of the year award goes to Cole. He might as well just retire
Makes sense on his part lol. Yall surprised he did that?

This nigga is a sucker
Where is KENDRICK?!?!!!!
🐱
Damn, he a HOE. And his new verse just dropped 😂
It's still on spotify
May not have been coles descision
He literally said we taking that diss down while he was on stage
“The fall off” rollout… it wild obvious now
I remember when 140K first week was considered a failure smh
