I feel like somebody pressed him backstage and put a gun to him…
Doubtful...I thought about it like
he didn't check in, but I look at the reality of it all.
Maybe....just maybe J Cole is a lame from day zero and this pop shyt/apologize tour finally allowing heads to see what folks like this marsupial seen from day one.
- Dude vocab always focuses on heavy cursing, NBA themes, trying to get coochie and having dreams
- Suddenly he becomes big headed due to collabs and a cult following (500k without features meme)
- Always emotional as hell (but nevermind that, he's SOOOOREALLL)
- Became a stinky beatnik and bought his old house because "real"
- Eventually pop shots and spoke on Kanye being a lost prophet (admirable but such and such stones and glass trees)
- Dreamville come up, and now he's acting like Suge:
- Starts feeling himself a bit too much (even though his albums are starting to decline sales and popularity wise)
- Sees an opportunity to go against Kendrick with a short jab but wai...
The reality kicks in...he was never a battle rapper or a rapper of such calibers. Kendrick been to the moon and back content wise, while Cole's peak was rapping about losing his virginity. Not in the same league or talent bracket. Plus, he is such an easy lick with the memes (melatonin albums) and the grim reality is that he's not saying shyt on the mic. Kendrick gave a genuine love tap that stings a bit, but you can walk it off, and somehow Cole realizes that the love tap actually hurts in the long run, now the real dilemma....
If I keep this going I'll be exposed....if I cop pleas maybe my fans will understand.
Catch 22 and quite frankly it was long overdue. He needed to be humbled and it sucks he had to do it to himself, instead of circumstance
