I’ve watched a lot of reactions on this song and no one even talks about how this song dropped on Coles Birthday, which just makes the “ON THE NIGHT I WAS BORN” bar SO much harder !! “Check the birth date N****, you ain’t the god”
When Cole gets on a track with a spitter, he gives you an A+ verse. I appreciate that. I hope he reaches out to Alchemist and other producers for once. Maybe they will bring this Cole out more.
He has been working with other producers so you are objectively wrong on that but I do believe he subjectively should work with more producers like Al Chemist
he too inconsistant rather than getting better, when hits he hits but often his mediocre if this type of cole was there 90% of tyhe time then he would be in top rappers out but he aint,
@@coyfrasure I do know what am talking about. Truth Hurts for Cole fans. If he made more quality raps over quantity he would be Kendricks level.Dont get me wrong he is still better than 80% rappers out there but saying he is top tier level is getting carried away, if so what does that make Lupe Benny ransom roc Marciano, boldy j , Royce, black thought
Eureka was shouted by Archimedes when he got the idea of “Archimedes’ principle”… it’s a greek work that translates to “i have it”. Crazy how Cole used different physics references all over his verse.
@@teferra444 the crazy thing is Archimedes said Eureka while he was in a bathtub… relaxing… just how you are relaxed after getting out of a masseuse! lol this verse gets crazy the more you think about it.
J. Cole’s career in reverse of most rappers, he “sold out” early in his career, realized what he was doing and kept evolving and doing this music he wanted to do. Any beat, any feature, any flow, Cole has done it all, man.
his mixtapes before he blew up are some of his best in my opinion. then he sold out, but realized he fucked up real quick. He adjusted and has been killin it ever since.
This song reminds me a lot of Knock the Hustle. Every time I hear j coles voice i think of him coming in with “Death to the imposters. Label me a king, my dreams could win Oscars”
J Cole is one of my favorite rappers ever. Especially his mixtapes. But as much as I love his production just imagine what he would do using producers like Alchemist consistently. It takes him to a whole new level. Also shoutout to Benny and Griselda. Can’t wait for TT4 and God Don’t Make Mistakes
I love the play on words when he said "Cole(Cold) world the HEAT will blast through your speaker" I just like how he used the synonym of cold but still using it as reference to his name🔥🔥.slick line
That was beautiful- poetic and slick. Cole just exudes integrity. He feels real. I liked Benny's verses too. Great reaction. While I'm here, Thanks for Deaf2Radio- really, really enjoying it. You have some incredible talent on there.
@K'len growing up catholic makes this line what could be my favorite rap bar of all time. This was verse of the year, then Jay had to release that "God Did." Jay is my go to, but Cole's background and perspective is more aligned with my life tbh.
Didn't even realize that reference until you brought it up to his call back to his incident at 16 when his car got shot up but he says on a few tracks he was protected by a guardian angel in so many ways. The way he sprinkles subtle references to much larger concepts throughout his songs is one of the reasons I love Cole. It's honestly like reading a book. You find something new with every listen
Always enjoy a good Ancient Greek, historical and literary reference. J. Cole’s verse was really good. How often can you use The Last of Mohicans in conjunction with physics and math! Good Song.
This reminds me so much of the Thought collab; 2 different ppl who aren't know for underworld talk, yet who take the time to remind ppl that they are just as rugged as anybody. BEAUTIFUL track.
So many religious references throughout Coles verse. Cant agree that the Jesus feature line was a bonus. -Born God crying (birth was an act of god) -walk with lions around corpses ( walk thru valley of death/ Daniel lions den) -get bread in mass like catholic preachers -revive a sport that’s dying -Jesus feature
@@tommywintonjr2641 you ate with that analysis... It was tickling my subconsciously but I couldn't bring it to conscious awareness to articulate it... I almost thought I was tripping .. but yes aZ I am/on... Thank you for that affirmation
He basically compared himself to Lucifer’s fall because he said “god was crying LIGHTING STRUCK” (when Lucifer fell to earth it was like lightning striking) he also playing with duality a lot with referencing good and bad using the bible
Love both efforts! Cole’s verse was reminiscent of Mos Def’s verse a decade ago on the record “History” featuring Talib. One of his greatest entries. I think many will feel the same for years to come regarding Cole’s work on this track. In fact, the entire record is reminiscent of that “History”. Hip Hop is amazing…
Bar (conspiracy) theories: I'm on 10 not 9 (royce the 5'9) Got the "nerds" thinking yalls as hard as Iron/I am (Lupe calls himself a nerd in the royce diss) + revenge of the nerd mixtapes.

Effortless how I'm skating on these records is proof - (Lupe made Kick push) ....outro conspiracy bar cole said and "And he'll say he never lied," The hook on Lupe's song instrumental says: "He never lies. He never lies no, He never lies he never liess...."
@@dashkenshin9748 SHEEESSH. That’s a tall order but Cole is one of the few active top tier MC’s that Lupe CANNOT play with. The hip hop in me wants this to be true lol
Also this song was dropped on Cole birthday so he prob written them first bars describing when he was born bc he knew it was dropping on his bday which I thought was fire
“Collectin' his bread in mass like he a Catholic preacher” I think this one of the most underrated lines Cole’s says. Bread is the food catholic people would eat at church, Mass is another word for church… once you put it together 🤯🤯🤯
God that no MC equal line was insane. I love catching bars I didn't hear on first listen, it just gives it another layer and you appreciate the music more.
I think a huge thing for me with this song was simply hearing Cole say Griselda. Coming from the buffalo area it’s so superficial to hear one of my favorite rappers ever recognize and even put himself under that when I’ve spent so much time pulling for the Griselda boys. Made me so happy man.
I enjoy your reactions slot because you guys don't just love hip hop but out love music. Its not just a reaction, sometimes it even becomes a lesson. Love your channel guys. Keep at it.
I love they way you guys broke down Cole's verse. I just wish y'all would've spoken about the production behind him before his verse hit. The thunder creeeping in giving that much more imagery to his words. This song is great tone to the rest of the year for both camps! i love y'alls reviews can't wait to see what's coming next!!
As a Buffalo dude who saw Benny around for years, was in clubs in the background during video shoots. I get proud to see him elevate. Also as a dude who bangs Cole heavy and skips over most other mcs as of recent, this collab was top tier.
To verbally illustrate how you are feeling and project that onto a listeners ear and for that listener to be engulfed by the scene Cole is painting by mouth, just speaks volume on his skill . There's no need to debate if he's one of the GREATS , we need to enjoy it and live in the moments when cole paints his verbal portraits! 😌 Barrier breaking skills.
Cole officially top 10 All-Time in my opinion this year he put in work and always been one of the Greatest lyricist of his generation if not for kendrick he would have been the greatest of this generation.
I cant be the only one that thought of the Lion King when Cole come on, the scene when Simba returns and its raining, and sparks are flying during the fight with scar
Something about these vibey tracks brings out Cole's best bars. He got loose on "Bablo Boat" w/ Royce just like this...well NOT this hard, but it was a fire verse. Alchemist is a god. That is all.
ive seen many reactions to this song but many people keep missing that line where he says "where the corpses was 'laying' " coles pronounces it as 'lying" implying that the "cops were lying" this ties to the police brutality in the states. and he continues to say "the young boy that walks with lion. this one ties to that butcher line about 'feline agility', butches lives the thug life and many people die in the process and cole be on the outline of the chalk where the corpses are lyin' coz he's not really into thug life but since hes on a feature with benny, he is walking around some lions
Benny the butcher man.This guy is what real hip hop needs bro,he respects the craft so much and that's what I actually like him bro.for cole,always giving top-tier verses bro.He literally can't miss and I'm happy he got someone who cab give him the same energy of rap.Great collab🔥
Cole said it himself having him on your track is a double edge sword, he gone bring the fire but you gone get torched too. What makes him a goat is how he will say some slick shit but it be the truth though.
Cole keeps getting better and better to me, and unlike some who are seen as among the very best, Cole always sounds good! He’s rhyming entire sentences throughout and holds for example the “er” scheme forever.. I even like how he throws in the “really, Coles pen be lethal” real quick near the end to keep that rhyme scheme going.. and while the “really-E no mc=“ bar is cool, same with the bread in mass, etc.. his ability to paint a picture like he does to start his verse is what separates him for me, that and the fact he always sounds good! it is music after all…

J. Cole’s career in reverse of most rappers, he “sold out” early in his career, realized what he was doing and kept evolving and doing this music he wanted to do. Any beat, any feature, any flow, Cole has done it all, man.
He played the game that the has so much money and such a dedicated that he drop whatever he wants. Boss shit.
his mixtapes before he blew up are some of his best in my opinion. then he sold out, but realized he fucked up real quick. He adjusted and has been killin it ever since.
He adapted well and unlike other who had to go with wave he just found his spot and went with it
Nobody talks about nas telling him don't fold. Via let nas down. Changed the whole trajectory if coke career. Nas a real one
@@emmanuelmondesir1314 No that's Drake. Cole drops quality for the most part. It just happens to coincide with what he genuinely wants to drop.
This song reminds me a lot of Knock the Hustle. Every time I hear j coles voice i think of him coming in with “Death to the imposters. Label me a king, my dreams could win Oscars”
Preach my dude
Real talk
Factual
That was🔥
J Cole is one of my favorite rappers ever. Especially his mixtapes. But as much as I love his production just imagine what he would do using producers like Alchemist consistently. It takes him to a whole new level. Also shoutout to Benny and Griselda. Can’t wait for TT4 and God Don’t Make Mistakes

Those mixtapes are something else man.
Need a tape with them 2
He is my fav rapper of all time and i agree 100%, he should mix it up a little
@@storm7617 FAX. CLASSICS
Benny killed it and Cole buried it
Well said 👏
Aint no other wat to put it 💯
holy shit great analogy 💯
Fire 🔥😂
You summed it😂
Can we talk about the imagery cole used to opened us his verse..reminding me of the beginning of a jk rowling chapter book
I love the play on words when he said
"Cole(Cold) world the HEAT will blast through your speaker"
I just like how he used the synonym of cold but still using it as reference to his name🔥🔥.slick line
Mannnnn I didn’t realize this until now lol
The line about “never living civilly” was a reference to him getting shot last year in Houston I think.
Damn that went over my head. Good catch
The song dropped on Coles birthday too, guy even tied that into his verse
Wowwww that’s why the introduction makes sense. Dangggg
Wait… did you guys notice the sound fx right before Cole comes on, it’s a sonic experience of what he’s describing on the first part of the verse🔥🔥🔥
Insane!!
Griselda is unmatched. Unbelievable quality in every verse they spit!
Great reaction and love from Germany.
That feline agility line was dope
SO slept on 😤
💯
That is what Cole does man!!!!!!! Verse of the year so far

I would love to hear the true number of entendre associated with this line. There are at least 4 different meanings...its wild.

@K'len growing up catholic makes this line what could be my favorite rap bar of all time. This was verse of the year, then Jay had to release that "God Did." Jay is my go to, but Cole's background and perspective is more aligned with my life tbh.
Not sure if this is obvious but “in mass” is a play on “en masse” which means as a whole or large number.
Crazy how the triple entendre into a quadruple entendre went straight over their heads
Which one?
there is no quad in that verse..
I know recency bias exists and all, but this Cole verse is just the most impressive I’ve ever heard. Just a moving verse.
It’s definitely a bias but it’s still a dope verse
I’m a huge Benny fan but even I know that Cole’s verse was flawless
🤔🧐
Beautiful bliss and looking for trouble up there too
exactly...Cole's verse the most impressive
Cole did his thing. Shout out to both artistes. Great reaction as always. This is a dope track. 🔥
this verse from cole had some really good bars, one of coles best verses as of recently. props to benny for his verse too
The explanation of Benny bringing old rap back was heaps on point, much love. You got another sub.
Crazy I was searching earlier to see if y’all did this. But glad y’all did now❗️

This reminds me so much of the Thought collab; 2 different ppl who aren't know for underworld talk, yet who take the time to remind ppl that they are just as rugged as anybody.
BEAUTIFUL track.
The beginning of coles verse and how he puts the mood in the verse and paints the picture for the rest of the verse is pure greatness.

You gotta check him out you won't regret it one bit
Do yourself a favor and go download or stream Tana Talk 3 or the Plugs I Met ep. Great bodies of work by Benny The Butcher.
