WALE FOLARIN 2: 19,700k first week

[No1]

Let’s not forget the features like All I Want Is You by Miguel, Party by Beyoncé, No Sleep by Janet. Shorty buggin. Lol. Women were literally a HUGE part of Cole’s fanbase.

You and @JustCKing are tripping claiming that Cole makes better songs for women than Wale. Half the songs you just listed were not in the same atmosphere of popularity as the songs Wale made for women. Power Trip is the only one. This man named Crooked Smile which is a song for kids.

Wale is a much more clever lyricist.

Nobody caressssss shyt don’t be hitting like that

Look man. I ain’t saying Cole makes better songs for women or none of that. Cause that’s Wale’s thing he’s prolly best at for himself. But Cole indefinitely has plenty joints women play still till this day. I’ve heard women more recently play All I Want Is You and Party over any Wale song. Women love Cole more. And always have. Work Out was another one.

For a talented as I think Wale is, I can’t figured out why his music typically sounds so blah to me. Outside of Fluctuate, the album is a snooze fest to me. I genuinely feel he could make great music though, just don’t know what the disconnect is.

I can tolerate him on a feature here or there, but I'm not listening to an album of dude.

Yall gotta let this sales thing go..

Elton John just sold 12,000 first week.

Elton John will still get 100 milli of his upcoming tour.

Sales go away the longer you in it.

We really comparing wale to a dude who's sold over 300M albums

Hes overly pretentious and his bars are nowhere near as good as he thinks they are

yall are so literal. Elton is on the list. At some point in his career no matter how big he was, HE LOST SALES. So what is the fuhking point of this thread is my point. THINK sometimes. my gawd...

Cole is NOT a better rapper than Wale

And I'm a fan of Cole, but c'mon now

Yes J Cole is and its not close at all

 

[L. Deezy]

Drake a huge consistent seller, at some point he wont sell as much. But you nyggas are waiting for that shyts and giggles moment. No matter how long his run was, yall gonna say he flopped when that time comes. Its stupid..

You can’t be serious



You don’t believe this .

If you wanna say he’s a better lyricist that’s your opinion .


Women don’t play jcole songs at parties or when they get ready .


Y’all love to play dumb but wale has a huge female fan base because he’s great at those songs .

J Cole doesn’t make better soulful songs than wale .

Ive literally never heard a female put on a wale song EVER

Ive never had a female walk up to me at a party and say "play some wale next"

 

[L. Deezy]

jsut to clarify

you are comparing Wale to Elton John ?

Im comparing Wale to anyone. From Elton to Soulja Boy.

the fuhk

see this is what makes me convinced that rap fans dont know shyt about rap which they swear they do.

voice is literally a HUGE part of the art of rapping. saying otherwise is just you being a idiot.

i bet you cant even explain to me using examples and bars/verses what makes Wale a better lyricist than Cole right now. You prolly dont even know shyt about lyricism(which you seem to see as the end all be all) .

Its the reason why Quentin Miller couldnt blow up off his own songs but Drake went nuclear with the exact same material

Delivery matters. And i say that as a person that doesnt even fw drake like that

The difference is that there will always be a point in drakea history where he was going platinum CONSISTENTLY

The same CANNOT and WILL NOT ever be said about wale
