So what J Cole's path forward from here? Does he have one?

[Neo. The Only. The One.]

My thoughts.

Only way forward for Cole is for Kendrick to throw him a lifeline by going at him VICIOUSLY on his next track. I mean vicious vicious. As hard as Nas went at Jay. Give the streets a body vicious. He gotta go at his neck as hard as he goes at Drake or even harder.

That and that alone would clear the way for J Cole to retract the apology and then he gotta come out with another diss record where he spitting for his life.

That's the ONLY way he can be redeemed.

I wonder if Kendrick likes him as a friend enough to help him like that tho.

And then on top of that, this is a competition for Kendrick so he might just count Cole's self defeat as a notch on his belt cause tagging Cole back in does nothing for him personally.

Although... it could dent the narrative that Drake obviously wants to run with, which is that it's him against the world. Which would be good for Kendrick if he puts Cole back into it and then it no longer looks like it's Drake having to face a bunch of folks alone.

It would be a crazy strategic move.
