Now I'm going to assume your a fan of JCole so I believe your opinion is bias. J Cole been talking about hes the greatest and says he ready for a fight, so when Kendrick (The Students) calls out J Cole & others the teacher. Then not only did j Cole make a DISS Response fast imo, went back on his word and apologized to the world's and also admitted Kendrick The better MC with out putting on a fight. What great person you know thats still considered Great and apologized for his intended actions. Sounds like a lame to me who wanted smoke and backed out when his Peer called him out.

      ppl will flame on it even more if he made a track like this...although it is a "j cole way of response". The response wouldn't really sound like a response, and even if it was taken that way, it would sound as though he doesn't really think Kendrick is anything of a competition even though its the big 3 thing.
      in end of the day, Cole shouldve just not responded OR just rap rap just straight try and bar for bar take out Kendrick with emcee skill. I mean if there is nothing to ctritic without making it personal or knowing its complete cap bs, might as well showcase your lyrical skill alone in the diss.

      nothing wrong with showing off success after going through rough times making it big. Sometimes people just want bangers to bump too with simple lines that have a lot of substance. Sometimes people want no substance at all and just want to bump to nonsense. Kinda dumb you would inconvenient yourself to take a bus when you have the funds not to. Thats not real, that's an image youre trying to go for. Rap is evolving and if you think new rap doesnt have substance then youre mistaking.

      Free thinking is not voicing thoughts on serious topics based on no info other then you want to say the opposite of what people think you would say. Free thinking is having adequate knowledge of a subject a voicing opinions based on what you think about that subject after having a clear understanding of it. Which Kanye does not he has been qouted saying his words are based on feeling not thought.

    The reaction to his apology highlights what he’s saying on this track. People idolise rappers, their music becomes a big part of life, and they almost become an extension of yourself because you can relate to it. He’s telling people not to because eventually they will do something that disappoints you. Self awareness is what sets Cole apart.
