    I’m deeply saddened to hear about the passing of the incredibly talented singer from the sample Sara Tavares last night. Her soulful voice and heartfelt melodies touched many lives, and this song serves as a beautiful testament to her legacy. May her music continue to inspire and uplift us as we remember her. Rest in peace.

    J cole is one of the biggest images of never give up on your dreams. He was dead broke couldn’t afford his rent but still made music hoping one day he will be signed and become famous. His landlord believed in him and let him off without paying his rent at the time years later j cole signed took over the rap game and paid Mohammed back with extra and still shows him love

No doubt J.Cole is an Amazing artist.. and I love his positive outlook on life while still touching on reality, but you cant even compare or let alone say he is better than Kendrick because it is just an opinion.

      "one of the reasons cole is better than Kendrick doesn't scream but gets his message across in a deep way" vanity slaves, heaven & hell, faith, keisha song, kush & corinthians, sing about me/i'm dying of thirst, hiiipower and a ton of other songs i've heard from kendrick and i still don't get your point. kendrick's lyrics are actually deeper than cole's and he doesn't even sound agressive on these songs i've mentioned. plus, one of the reasons one might use when stating kendrick is better than cole is that cole's not as versatile when it comes to delivery.
