B artist in a C climate
Might even be a D climate right now. So of course in a sea of Opp and thot rap he sounds like a God. But Cole on his soap box can't even box with the Commons, Mos Defs, and Black Thoughts of the world. He gets a pass by some of the old guard because he's basically a backpack rapper's dream but nah man let's be reality here.
I think Ye would see Travis as his protégé more than Sean. Sean was already crying about not getting enough attention when he was still dropping the finally famous tapes.
Sean definitely innovated some things early on with the swag on his first album and punchline delivery but I think he didn't update his style fast enough like KDot, Drake, and Wale were doing. Cole kind of updated himself with his production I'll give him that.

I still think something fishy on how
Dre- k dot
Jay- Cole
Wayne- Drake
Ye- Sean

All just happened to get four of the biggest stars in that era. All very safe anti “50 cent” type rappers

Edit
Sticking with the thread hell no J Cole top 10. He not top 50 imo
50 cent of this era Pop Smoke was killed prematurely breh :snoop:

I really think Drake is actually underrated, especially knowing most people dont know his Comeback Season days

the guy really was about to be on some back packer shyt until he met Wayne. And he'd have been just fine being the new Joe Budden.

Wale can rap until he's 50, IMO

Kendrick...seems cold right now because he's kinda in the wind and that post GKMC flair seems to be waning. People want to see whats next and lowkey his weakest project didn't resonate that well with Mr. Morale.

Sean is weird. it's like he's uncomfortable being the Wiz with swag raps but since the new Detroit is on the map he cant compete with that street edge so he's just gotta rap just to rap. He might as well become a Jhene Aiko feature act and keep it moving. Thats way safer than trying to record some shyt thats gonna move the needle when you got Travis and all these younger guys making new age shyt. How is Sean supposed to eat in an Uzi era?

Sean could be Wiz level right now but Sean wants to be seen as the new...Lupe. Its weird. But he clearly doesn't have the range.

When are ya’ll gonna realize this shyts all subjective and there’s no real metric that’ll change how anyone feels in their stance, whatever it is?


If someone feels J. Cole is the best rapper of all time and ranks top 3 of all time, and someone else feele he’s fukkin terrible and doesn’t rank near the top 200.. neither of you geeks are wrong. The keyword is “feels”


It’s literally an opinion. Just accept that the next mufukka doesn’t share yours and keep it moving. Trying to convince the next person that their opinion isn’t the right opinion is the silliest shyt ever
