Jay was cocky and arrogant but he also dropped a brick house on Mobb and Nas. It would have ended anyone else, but Nas ate that shyt and we all know what happened next. Whether looking at it in hindsight in 2024 or in 2001/2002....Jay's move made sense. Drop a kill shot, end it with a preview of what's coming next, and if Nas fights back you drop another kill shot with the Carmen shyt. Point is I'm not docking Jay points just because Nas is superhuman lol.
Jay understood he had to annihilate Nas, and felt he had ammo. Getting back to this situation...Cole isn't a killer like that, and Kendrick only has one weakness (his previous album). Not a lot of people rocking with this "TPAB was trash" shyt. Even Cole fukked with that album at the time. So you basically got a dude with three classics, one eh album, no scandals, no real flaws as a rapper...where is the angle, besides some personal shyt we wouldn't be privy to? Surely not some relationship shyt. Both those dudes were cheating on their girls for years before confessing on albums lol.
You can't "don't make me do it" to a nikka who has no conscious, rap wise because he's gonna do it without hesitation. That's my problem with this whole shyt. It's the same criticism I had of Drake for a decade. You can't jab Kendrick, you gotta kill him. And you SURE as fukk can't let him go first, which is what Cole is doing here. Kendrick is gonna push the envelope, there will be no "I fukk with that nikka but..." shyt. And given the weaknesses Cole has...I just don't like this position for him.
Maybe Kendrick fukks up the diss and I look stupid. But I seriously, seriously doubt that happens.
breh this shyt has had the whole crib shaking...."monotonous" he says
and they talking THAT SHYT on every track
In terms of calling him out yes, this will be the first real rap beef between top rappers in ages, content wise, this is PG-13Am I the only one who thinks Cole actually went there? That wasn't light to me, he critiqued Kendrick in a way I haven't heard any other rapper do. For years, Kendrick has been untouchable, but Cole just shattered that perception in three minutes.
If this is just a warning shot, I don't want to see what Cole's going to do if he really tries.
he is just coming into his prime. That's why "everyone is a Cole fan now"The amount of retconning
Now everybody a Jermaine fan when I’ve been reading for years he makes NyQuil music for insomniacs
And a nikka just said he improves with every release
Y’all so damn disingenuous
It took a 5 foot 6 nikka from Compton to make you appreciate Jermaine
Go fold some clothes and drink some almond milk
All that gangasta talk this mulatto nikka doing ain’t moving shyt
You and Drake have white mothers
Stop it
Kendrick last output was pretty fukking great too I don't see what you're saying here...I mean yea cole is going crazy on this but he ain't doing shyt that kendrick isn't capable of. You stack their projects up and kendricks wins and it isn't close and this is coming from a lowkey stan of coleThere's no way nikkas can listen to his verse on Pi and think Kendrick better than this nikka right now. Wow.
This isn't what I'm talking about. Show me Kendrick's last verse better than that Cole Pi verse. I'm talking about rapping ability right now.Kendrick last output was pretty fukking great too I don't see what you're saying here...I mean yea cole is going crazy on this but he ain't doing shyt that kendrick isn't capable of.

He didn't violate the lil nikka forreal, he bigged up previous albums in the verse and called him his brotha, didn't really dig into his character as a person, could've REALLY talked crazy about TDE falling apart and his lack of leadership on that front,
Oh and how he saved this nikka from in real life
This is what nikkas mean when they say Cole gonna have to find a killer instinct to not get embarrassed cuz you know Kendrick isn't gonna have a single kind word in his response.
The difference between pushing a nikka at the beginning of a fight vs just stealing off on him
Kendrick it sounds likeproject is very good for a throwaway EP
only track i'm not feeling is Fever
can anyone explain to me who is the trans person he talm bout?, i'm lost lol
