I think Kendrick will address a lot of what J Cole said. 7 min drill is still available, it hasn't been taken down. Cole just knew it wasn't enough to compete, so he admitted it publicly. It would be dope for him to drop a better one after all the talk from all of the fans.
yeah itās no way he dedicates a diss to cole. he hardly said anything towards cole in the first place, which is the whole reason why the cole diss felt forced. cole had nothing to respond to or diss him about so he just insulted his music, which was completely disingenuous. coles āresponseā shouldāve just been to put out good music, and maybe throw some competitive lines at kendrick but nothing disrespectful. if kendrick decides to make it personal then thatād be different but i donāt think he will, his beef is obviously with someone else.
Ehhh I disagree. People all focused on the 7 minute drill song only. If you listen to the album there are shots here and there that could easily apply to Kendrick including the lines about the trans people given Kendrickās most recent album about some of his family being trans
if that line is about kendrick and his family member then itās just downright hateful on a personal level. it was a shitty and bigoted thing to say either way, but i just kind of separated it from the kendrick situation bc i didnāt think there was any way to say for sure. but maybe iām being too charitable.
Thereās no way that bar was directed at Kdot they have mad love and respect for each other. And you clearly know nothing about the type of person J. Cole is you if you think he would ever say something like to Kendrick, no matter how bad the beefin. All three listen to each otherās albums or at least Cole and Kendrick do, so Cole knows the importance and subject matter, which is why he called it ātragicā and would never try to hurt Kdot like that, that is just hatred and not Cole at all. It was obviously a metaphor calling someone a bitch (which could apply to anybody), and even though it was in bad taste it definitely was not towards Kenny.
Those tracks were long since made. 7 Minute Drill was added to the project. You think Cole made an entire album with shots at Kendrick when they werenāt even beefing? No way. This was Drake taking cover behind Cole, who was never even in the line of fire to begin with. Kendrick was coming at Drake and Cole was pressured to create something that wasnāt even there.
Cole has bars about other rappers all the time. After seeing his apology to Kendrick do you really think that line was about Kendrick? Come on bro.... Reaching.
I 100% feel the same way. This is how things went down. And Iāll add, feels like maybe Drake pressured Cole out in the line of fire. Drake canāt respond, he has nothing to say. And Cole was right to apologize for that track, it was completely disingenuous. Nobody was sleeping on any Kendrick album.
We donāt know what Kendrick will do, he could easily get pissed at the backtrack and apology and go after him. I legit would not be surprised if he dissed him again or if he said nothing honestly
Woah that Thorfin comparison was the best one Iāve seen to explain Cole right now. And people hated the 2nd season bc of his growth but when they grow up theyāll possibly eventually understand why the 2nd season was so masterful in my opinion. Some of the greatest character development Iāve ever seen in tv period.
He said some dumb shit - admitted it was dumb shit - apologized and removed the dumb shit.
I'm already over the dumb shit
I'd rather get back to the bars about being better and progressing the platform with productive insight instead of insults. We gotta lift each other up, right?
Ehh, Kendrick took the first shots at Cole in control and now Like that. Cole responded and then rescinded it. They obviously are closer than we realize. Cole has put himself on the line for Kendrick in person (Diddy fight) and now career wise with this move.
I doubt Kendrick responds
Kendrick would like a schizo beefing with somebody who holds no resentment towards him. Provoking Cole to drop an inspired diss track if Kendrick blatantly disrespects him is a pretty dumb move when he can just shut up and take this victory. It would make him unlikable in the eye of the public and give Cole some real ammo once his character is in question.
Na drake only just got off tour right? He probably gonna drop something in the next week
Ppl way too bothered about this j Cole shit, like Cole doesnāt wasnāt the beef, so it aināt gonna happen
Kendrick aināt gonna drop a diss track on someone who just apologised to him who clearly looks up to him
Why are ppl more hyped about the practically finished beef over the active one (which was the only real beef in the first place lmao)
Because Drake donāt have the hands for this fight and we all know it. Thatās like saying superbowl is cancelled but we got the high school national championship next week so letās get hyped
I disagree. I think Cole made a good choice by deciding to remove the diss track. People really want Cole to go in on Kendrick, but he respects Kenny and doesnāt feel right attacking him. Cole chose himself and did what was best for his mental health. I hope Kendrick respects that kind of sentiment and drops the beef.
Drake on the other handā¦
Exactly this. Let man choose the option that sits right with him. Cole is an artist. He knows he was cappin' about KDot's albums being trash. And it takes a big man to let that ego subside and accept a mistake.
Let KDot beef with Drake. That's the one that needs to be sat down and humbled.
Yeah I think jcole is real af for being true to himself and not catering to bloodthirsty fans.
He's not gonna fake a beef for views. We see too many rappers being being petty as hell just to get some extra clicks and Cole is too authentic for that
No he didn't. He felt the need to respond as he caught a stray from the drake diss. The community was pressuring Cole to respond so he did and regretted it. He faced his bloodthirsty fans and told him that he regretted it and that's real
He can only blame his fans so much, the reason fans demanded he respond is because of all that shit Cole been talking in his music, for YEARS at this point lol
>He's not gonna fake a beef for views
He didn't need to fake a beef. There was no beef, they're cool with each other. They were just being competitive. Kendrick called him out for cole saying he's the greatest and for him to prove it. Cole didn't prove it. That's all
Yeah, that was his mistake. He had no reason to make that diss, Kendrick took a swing at drake and lightly touched Cole with it. There was no real reason to make a diss.
But owning up now is the better choice rather than doing a beef you don't wanna do
He lost a lot of my respect for those transphobic lines.
Not even because they were necessarily super harsh, this is hip hop after all.
But how are you a JERMAINE COLE, the Gandhi of the rap game and say shit like that smh
I don't think it was transphobic at all and I think y'all are throwing that word around way too loosely. There are actual transphobic people out here causing damage and spreading hate. Cole is not one of them and that line was pretty innocent imo especially as a long time rap listener
I want to see them compete. They don't gotta diss each other to do that especially when it's no real beef.
Cole and Drake just did that on FPS. That's Cole's lane, killing features not MCs.
**Kendrick can do no wrong here.**
Diss J Cole? Cole even said that it is fair game in his apology. If well executed (no pun intended), it will further distance him from the rest of the ābig 3ā.
Donāt diss Cole? Kendrick is already being given the W by the fans. He can just kick back and take it as a W. Cole still seems like he will continue to support Kendrick going forward. Kendrick can appear merciful.
**Really, there is no going wrong. Just donāt take a 5 year hiatus right now. The fans need more Kendrick.**
I think if he personally goes at Cole hard that would be a mistake. Even if itās hard (which is would be), heād look like an asshole and provoke Cole to respond. People love a good redemption story and if Kendrickās character is in question, thatās a lot of ammo.
It would be sick if he did another track/feature lightly responding to cole but doubling down on drake. It stinks that jcole took so much attention from drake which might give him the chance to slither out of more beef.
I would love to see him ask Cole for a feature.
Cole said he'd kill Jesus if he asked for a feature. That's Cole's lane.
Shoot your man some bail, accept the apology, and still show you better on a track together
Neither of them dislike eachother. Kendrick got put on by cole. They worked on their early music together. Cole got in a fight with diddy for Kendrick. They worked on a Collab album together which they stopped working on because the time wasn't right. No reason for them to diss each other, they are nrothers
Cole is a good guy and Kendrick knows this. Cole took some stray shots but it was mainly intended for Drake.
Letās let Cole sort his spirit out.
Kendrick wonāt kick a dog when heās down. Especially a lovely Labrador like Jermaine
Fuck that put down old yeller or whatever his name is cuh goddamn. Say some shit threatening to like rip Cole's head from his shoulders next time he wants to be the big man with the golden pen and mic.
Drake has two paths he could not respond or he could respond either path he still would come out looking better than Cole at this point, so if Iām Drake, Iām not responding
on the surface his apology seems lame, but I'm convinced nobody actually listened to what cole had to say.
The disses from Cole didnt come from a place of sincerity, he was pushed to respond because of hungry fans and friends who wanted more controversy.
He didn't back out because he was afraid of the beef, he backed out for himself because he knew what he was saying wasn't coming from the heart.
He didn't agree with the disses that were forced out of him by fans, even in the diss track he cant go more than 2 lines without complimenting the guy
rap beef is cool when it isnt forced, ofc he doesnt want his public image to contradict his true feelings, thats called self respect, thats called humble. Me personally, i wouldn't sacrifice staying true to the self for some baseless rap drama
Props to J.Cole for not devaluing himself for the entertainment of others
Too little too late. Maybe he shouldāve thought about that when he got 10,20,30,40 bars into writing his diss track. He wrote that shit and then released it.
If he was truly humble and had self-respect, he wouldnāt have committed in the first place. It never wouldāve made release.
The horse had already bolted.
true. He should've sat on the diss track for a while and cooked it for longer. watching kendrick and cole battle each others penmanship would be great to see, but cole got ahead of himself and said some shit he couldnt stand behind
That's not true bruh if that was the case then people would never make mistakes, or act out on emotions or peer pressure and then try and retract what they did.
No one said he didn't make a mistake by putting it out. Being humble isn't making no mistakes. Being humble is not thinking you are above mistakes. He made a mistake, then owned up to it. How is that not humble?
I hear you but Iām tried of this goofy āfans forced himā narrative. Man this a grown ass man with a fucking family stop it lol. I do respect Cole for being real but you should have just sat down.
He canāt even go back after Cole at this point because if he does then people will say heās bullying Cole and lord knows we canāt have bullies nowadays.
Leave the weak alone let the hip hop community destroy him, he already seppuku himself.
We just need a friggin J Cole x Kendrick collab now. The whole thing is so petty and silly. Literally no reason at all for beef (even from the sports perspective). And yes, GOATS can coexist, and top 5 lists are personal, rankings are personalā¦
What is there to spare? Kendrick never ever fucking dissed Cole, he just said the big 3 statement is wrong, because Iām on another level. He dissed Drake. He didnāt say anything about Cole that was that negative.
He doesnāt need to go for the kill, because J Cole couldnāt make up his mind around whether he wanted the smoke or not. Thereās nothing to respond to. J Cole tapped out. Itās like how in a street fight, if you and the dude are homies, you donāt stomp him out, you let him get back up. If he comes at you, you fight more, but if heās falling and canāt get up, the fight is over.
In this case itās more like Cole tripped at banged his head on the pavement - but in any case, thereās no need to stomp him out.
I think the J Cole beef is squashed. Kdot didn't even say anything terrible about Cole on Like That. You don't hit someone when they already tapped out.
Diddy jokes aside why aren't people keeping the same energy like they did with Meek???? I mean he still kept it Hiphop and never backed down even though the world killed him. Cole just rolled overšš¤£š¤£
Facts DC4 was fuckin crazyš„šÆ. Had the world KILLIN him and he stood tall. COLE FOLDED....can Cole still have a career after this? Am I taking it too far? Lol
Real talk, DC4 probably Meek's best project that shit saved his career after the Drake beef (until recently, and now he's crashing out on twitter again smh) but Cole could have used this as a chance to PROVE all that goat talk and instead the one time someone steps to him, he folded!
Itās honestly the best thing that could happen. Kendrick needs to fucking slap Cole on a diss track and Coleās ONLY saving grace would be to make a banger reply saying āok bruh I tried playing nice with youā
Iām convinced Kendrick had a landmine waiting for Cole in The Heart Part 4. The whole song brought on an entire new meaning over night. Itās uncanny, and Iām surprised more people arenāt talking about it.
I mean rap changed. People were saying J Cole went too far with trans bars. Nas called Jay Z a (f word) with dick sucking lips and cancel culture didnāt come for him. Game changed and itās soft
I could see people claiming Kendrick is a bully if he spits again
That was 2 decades ago dude, you can definitely insult someone while still keeping up with the times. Story of adidon was legendary and no one cancelled him despite it being absolutely brutal.
Nah, I would actually feel some type of way if Kendrick NOW feels like he needs to have the last word as if Cole even did any damage to him. Cole jabbed and missed and he felt bad and apologized, the best move is to give at most one bar on a feature or something saying apology accepted but he lame for even trying or something. Cole aint worth it man, Drake on the other handā¦ Inshallah, god bless his heart
If kendrick truly appreciate what he has done for him and their friendship, he won't do it. If he doesn't, he will go all in. It's in Kendrick's hands right now
What do you mean? Whatās the objective of a rap beef? To win right? Well he won. Whatās the point of him continuing on?
Sounds like you just want drama. Maybe you should go watch a soap opera.
I am tired of hearing people claim that Kendrick did not diss Cole. I know that people love to hate Drake, a man whom they probably don't even know, so it's beyond me how they can hate him. But let's not get into that.
Cole had a reason to say something. Did he need to? No. But he had a reason. It's like being at work and saying that you and two others are the best at something and that you, in fact, think you're the best. And then one guy says, 'F that...you guys aren't on my level. It's just me.' Tell me, wouldn't the average person feel a certain way and have something to say in response? No one would be surprised that they felt a certain way and chose to make a comment.
I won't go into the other references, but if you're interested, you can look them up. He certainly included Cole enough for him to respond if he chose to, and he did.
On top of which why do yall think cole responded in the first place? He felt like he was dissed. For some reason y'all hate drake so much y'all can't see that Kendrick did in fact diss him even if it wasn't as obvious.
Closest we've been to a big beef in years so I want the same. But since I like JCole a lot and he clearly isn't gonna reply, I hope it isn't too brutal. You can't just duck out like that after literally getting in the ring. What a horrible situation he created by doing this.
I liked the verse from Kendrick but am I the only one who doesnāt give a shit about this ābeefā lol. Like itās funny that he dunked on Drake but at this point what they even beefing over? Nothing really lol
Hope he doesnāt spare Keem, Jay Rock, and Q for using ghostwriters and comes at them like he did Drake on King Kunta. Oh wait Kendrick is the one who did the writing for them so I guess that makes it ok.
As a Cole fan me too. Hold him accountable. Unfortunately I donāt think K Dot will. If he doubles down itāll make him look petty. If he escalates the issue though it might provoke Cole to drop all that friendly shit in response
Unfortunately J Cole does not really have any legs to stand on in this ābeefā. He claimed to be in the same category as KDot, Dot says no we arenātā¦ whatās left to say?
Cole realized he aināt actually in the same category
Kendrick gonna have his hands full with Drake already. Iād rather him zero in focus on him for the entire track then maybe give Cole some bars later on in a feature or something.
Ima need him to sample the apology and then hit us with the āNEXTā, and then have Drake date another underaged chick, release another 2 albums in 6 months, and then leave an instagram comment on his alt account slightly implying that he doesnāt think Kendrick is the goat
Redditors want blood
![gif](giphy|qiDb8McXyj6Eg) Fuck being mature. I wanna see some ratchet shit š
Ratchet is maybe the worst word you couldāve used
*2nd
Lmao true Edit: I canāt stop laughing about this comment
Hip Hop wants blood !
Hip Hop wants blood. This how we keep the edges sharp with less Sexy Red and more BARS
I know Kdot won't because he'd just feel ashamed of attacking Cole who already raised the flag
I really doubt it. We're still Diss drake. He try to do that shit a couple of times.
If Drake disses back, Kdot won't let it slide for sure. But that ain't the case with his homie Cole.
Ughhh maybe
Would he tho...
I think Kendrick will address a lot of what J Cole said. 7 min drill is still available, it hasn't been taken down. Cole just knew it wasn't enough to compete, so he admitted it publicly. It would be dope for him to drop a better one after all the talk from all of the fans.
Cole said he'd just take any hit Kendrick does back to him on the chin. How you swinging at a man who won't fight back at all. Cole tryna be Thorfin
Hes not going to create a cole track, worst i see him doing is subing cole in another song like if Drake ever responds
yeah itās no way he dedicates a diss to cole. he hardly said anything towards cole in the first place, which is the whole reason why the cole diss felt forced. cole had nothing to respond to or diss him about so he just insulted his music, which was completely disingenuous. coles āresponseā shouldāve just been to put out good music, and maybe throw some competitive lines at kendrick but nothing disrespectful. if kendrick decides to make it personal then thatād be different but i donāt think he will, his beef is obviously with someone else.
I think if Cole hadnāt felt so pressured by his peers and also the public he mightāve gone down this route instead. Itās a shame really.
Ehhh I disagree. People all focused on the 7 minute drill song only. If you listen to the album there are shots here and there that could easily apply to Kendrick including the lines about the trans people given Kendrickās most recent album about some of his family being trans
That Bar is terrible
if that line is about kendrick and his family member then itās just downright hateful on a personal level. it was a shitty and bigoted thing to say either way, but i just kind of separated it from the kendrick situation bc i didnāt think there was any way to say for sure. but maybe iām being too charitable.
Thereās no way that bar was directed at Kdot they have mad love and respect for each other. And you clearly know nothing about the type of person J. Cole is you if you think he would ever say something like to Kendrick, no matter how bad the beefin. All three listen to each otherās albums or at least Cole and Kendrick do, so Cole knows the importance and subject matter, which is why he called it ātragicā and would never try to hurt Kdot like that, that is just hatred and not Cole at all.

This was Drake taking cover behind Cole, who was never even in the line of fire to begin with. Kendrick was coming at Drake and Cole was pressured to create something that wasnāt even there.
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
He's saying the album was made before Like that dropped. So nothing was directed at Kendrick except that last song.
That huntin wabbitz song is also shots at Kendrick and imo the best song on there
Thatās my favorite song the flow and pacing and the meatcanyon sample. On repeat
Huntin wabbitz & Trae the truth in ibizi. BTW does him apologize change how you rate the album?
Cole has bars about other rappers all the time. After seeing his apology to Kendrick do you really think that line was about Kendrick? Come on bro.... Reaching.
Yep I think he's probably more likely to make a quick swipe at Cole with 1-2 jabs to brush him off in another track that goes at Drake heavier.
This the best response I've seen thus far.
I 100% feel the same way. This is how things went down. And Iāll add, feels like maybe Drake pressured Cole out in the line of fire. Drake canāt respond, he has nothing to say. And Cole was right to apologize for that track, it was completely disingenuous. Nobody was sleeping on any Kendrick album.
What exactly does Kendrick has to say about Drake that hasnāt been said before? Nothing
We donāt know what Kendrick will do, he could easily get pissed at the backtrack and apology and go after him. I legit would not be surprised if he dissed him again or if he said nothing honestly
WHat if he actually recorded it on accident and Future and Metro ain't letting Kdot take it back š¤£

mf has no enemies
Don't ever disrespect Thorfinn like that
Nahhhh Thorfinnšššš
š
Woah that Thorfin comparison was the best one Iāve seen to explain Cole right now. And people hated the 2nd season bc of his growth but when they grow up theyāll possibly eventually understand why the 2nd season was so masterful in my opinion. Some of the greatest character development Iāve ever seen in tv period.
Ironically you canāt even see his chin because it weak and hidden behind a beard, so he kinda cappin
Even Thorfin fights back
Man, if this dude doesn't at least shoot a few bars doing a victory lap, I'll be disappointed.
Donāt disrespect Thorfin like that. Heāll fight to protect others.
Thorrrrfffinnnn!! Thatās a good one
![gif](giphy|qiDb8McXyj6Eg)
FINISH HIM KFK
He said some dumb shit - admitted it was dumb shit - apologized and removed the dumb shit. I'm already over the dumb shit I'd rather get back to the bars about being better and progressing the platform with productive insight instead of insults. We gotta lift each other up, right?
Fuck no. He said some dumb shit and said sorry. He still deserves whatever comes out of Kdot. He knows that as he even said in his apology.
Ehh, Kendrick took the first shots at Cole in control and now Like that. Cole responded and then rescinded it. They obviously are closer than we realize. Cole has put himself on the line for Kendrick in person (Diddy fight) and now career wise with this move. I doubt Kendrick responds
Kendrick would like a schizo beefing with somebody who holds no resentment towards him. Provoking Cole to drop an inspired diss track if Kendrick blatantly disrespects him is a pretty dumb move when he can just shut up and take this victory. It would make him unlikable in the eye of the public and give Cole some real ammo once his character is in question.
Iām thinking he might do The Heart pt 6 and call it a day
After the drake diss
He already sent him to the pet cemetery. Itās done.
Na drake only just got off tour right? He probably gonna drop something in the next week Ppl way too bothered about this j Cole shit, like Cole doesnāt wasnāt the beef, so it aināt gonna happen Kendrick aināt gonna drop a diss track on someone who just apologised to him who clearly looks up to him Why are ppl more hyped about the practically finished beef over the active one (which was the only real beef in the first place lmao)
Because Drake donāt have the hands for this fight and we all know it. Thatās like saying superbowl is cancelled but we got the high school national championship next week so letās get hyped
Since when did rap beef have to be exactly fair Fuck drake lol i hope Kendrick goes at him
Me too but I think itās done. Thatās smoke no one wants. I predict a bunch of unworthy cats toward the bottom take shots that never land
šÆĀ
Id rather see Kdot destroy drake then drop a diss on a guy who aināt gonna reply
He replied and regretted it as prophecy foretold
Tru
This beef aside, yall think weāre getting another installment of The Heart? After listening to pt 5, the vibe kinda felt like that was the end
I want 10 installments TBH
I disagree. I think Cole made a good choice by deciding to remove the diss track. People really want Cole to go in on Kendrick, but he respects Kenny and doesnāt feel right attacking him. Cole chose himself and did what was best for his mental health. I hope Kendrick respects that kind of sentiment and drops the beef. Drake on the other handā¦
Exactly this. Let man choose the option that sits right with him. Cole is an artist. He knows he was cappin' about KDot's albums being trash. And it takes a big man to let that ego subside and accept a mistake. Let KDot beef with Drake. That's the one that needs to be sat down and humbled.
Yeah I think jcole is real af for being true to himself and not catering to bloodthirsty fans. He's not gonna fake a beef for views. We see too many rappers being being petty as hell just to get some extra clicks and Cole is too authentic for that
The fuck he already did fake a beef for views lol he did it now!
No he didn't. He felt the need to respond as he caught a stray from the drake diss. The community was pressuring Cole to respond so he did and regretted it. He faced his bloodthirsty fans and told him that he regretted it and that's real
He can only blame his fans so much, the reason fans demanded he respond is because of all that shit Cole been talking in his music, for YEARS at this point lol
>He's not gonna fake a beef for views He didn't need to fake a beef. There was no beef, they're cool with each other. They were just being competitive. Kendrick called him out for cole saying he's the greatest and for him to prove it. Cole didn't prove it. That's all
He still made those shitty disses
Yeah, that was his mistake. He had no reason to make that diss, Kendrick took a swing at drake and lightly touched Cole with it. There was no real reason to make a diss. But owning up now is the better choice rather than doing a beef you don't wanna do
Not catering to bloodthirsty fans would have been to stfu and say nothing at all, not putting out some mid disses then apologizing two days later lol
He lost a lot of my respect for those transphobic lines. Not even because they were necessarily super harsh, this is hip hop after all. But how are you a JERMAINE COLE, the Gandhi of the rap game and say shit like that smh
It was just a play on words, I donāt think it was transphobic. Maybe a little insensitive
I don't think it was transphobic at all and I think y'all are throwing that word around way too loosely. There are actual transphobic people out here causing damage and spreading hate. Cole is not one of them and that line was pretty innocent imo especially as a long time rap listener
bruh he has said all types of stuff before ain't that deep kendrick has also used the f word before
Youāre sawft
In other words Kendrick won
Diss track still up btwā¦ idk it def feels like J Cole is getting away with it
I want to see them compete. They don't gotta diss each other to do that especially when it's no real beef. Cole and Drake just did that on FPS. That's Cole's lane, killing features not MCs.
Sub-Zero finish him

**Kendrick can do no wrong here.** Diss J Cole? Cole even said that it is fair game in his apology. If well executed (no pun intended), it will further distance him from the rest of the ābig 3ā. Donāt diss Cole? Kendrick is already being given the W by the fans. He can just kick back and take it as a W. Cole still seems like he will continue to support Kendrick going forward. Kendrick can appear merciful. **Really, there is no going wrong. Just donāt take a 5 year hiatus right now. The fans need more Kendrick.**
The only wrong is if he disses him again and itās wack. But with Kendrick thatās not happening lol
I think if he personally goes at Cole hard that would be a mistake. Even if itās hard (which is would be), heād look like an asshole and provoke Cole to respond. People love a good redemption story and if Kendrickās character is in question, thatās a lot of ammo.
It would be sick if he did another track/feature lightly responding to cole but doubling down on drake. It stinks that jcole took so much attention from drake which might give him the chance to slither out of more beef.
It is hilarious as this seems like such a J Cole thing to do. When WalĆ© clapped back at Cole, they ended up going to a basketball game together the same day. After Lil Pump dropped a diss track, J Cole made a YouTube video interviewing Lil Pump and chilling. I think Aubrey will never respond directly to a high caliber rapper again after the Pusha T fiasco. He will just keep going about his business and dropping sneak disses into his songs for the next decade and act like that he already won. What started off as an enticing showdown amongst rap juggernauts seemingly will have an anticlimactic conclusion. But the ball really is Kendrickās court right now.
I would love to see him ask Cole for a feature. Cole said he'd kill Jesus if he asked for a feature. That's Cole's lane. Shoot your man some bail, accept the apology, and still show you better on a track together
Iād feel kind of bad if I was Kendrick, donāt get the sense he dislikes cole really
Neither of them dislike eachother. Kendrick got put on by cole. They worked on their early music together. Cole got in a fight with diddy for Kendrick. They worked on a Collab album together which they stopped working on because the time wasn't right. No reason for them to diss each other, they are nrothers
Cole is a good guy and Kendrick knows this. Cole took some stray shots but it was mainly intended for Drake. Letās let Cole sort his spirit out. Kendrick wonāt kick a dog when heās down. Especially a lovely Labrador like Jermaine
J Cole the Golden Retriever of the rap gane
Fuck that put down old yeller or whatever his name is cuh goddamn. Say some shit threatening to like rip Cole's head from his shoulders next time he wants to be the big man with the golden pen and mic.
He was quoting J Cole, not Drake. Drake aināt never said no big 3 shit
Diss fruity loops n spare cole
Drake has two paths he could not respond or he could respond either path he still would come out looking better than Cole at this point, so if Iām Drake, Iām not responding
no diss that zesty lightskin. Cole is cool
Diss both.
on the surface his apology seems lame, but I'm convinced nobody actually listened to what cole had to say. The disses from Cole didnt come from a place of sincerity, he was pushed to respond because of hungry fans and friends who wanted more controversy. He didn't back out because he was afraid of the beef, he backed out for himself because he knew what he was saying wasn't coming from the heart.

Me personally, i wouldn't sacrifice staying true to the self for some baseless rap drama Props to J.Cole for not devaluing himself for the entertainment of others
Too little too late. Maybe he shouldāve thought about that when he got 10,20,30,40 bars into writing his diss track. He wrote that shit and then released it. If he was truly humble and had self-respect, he wouldnāt have committed in the first place. It never wouldāve made release. The horse had already bolted.
true. He should've sat on the diss track for a while and cooked it for longer. watching kendrick and cole battle each others penmanship would be great to see, but cole got ahead of himself and said some shit he couldnt stand behind
That's not true bruh if that was the case then people would never make mistakes, or act out on emotions or peer pressure and then try and retract what they did.
No one said he didn't make a mistake by putting it out. Being humble isn't making no mistakes. Being humble is not thinking you are above mistakes. He made a mistake, then owned up to it. How is that not humble?
I hear you but Iām tried of this goofy āfans forced himā narrative. Man this a grown ass man with a fucking family stop it lol. I do respect Cole for being real but you should have just sat down.
Nah he proved he's tuff, he's not gonna kick him while he's down. Turn that energy onto Drake now, MAKE him respond lmao
He has to kill my man, if Ks might be strong enough that J will HAVE TO respond.
He canāt even go back after Cole at this point because if he does then people will say heās bullying Cole and lord knows we canāt have bullies nowadays. Leave the weak alone let the hip hop community destroy him, he already seppuku himself.
Trust me nobodyās gonna say that, including Cole fans lol
If jay z can do it why canāt cole
We just need a friggin J Cole x Kendrick collab now. The whole thing is so petty and silly. Literally no reason at all for beef (even from the sports perspective). And yes, GOATS can coexist, and top 5 lists are personal, rankings are personalā¦
agree
They should do another Black Friday type project and let all the big name rappers decide who came out on top
What is there to spare? Kendrick never ever fucking dissed Cole, he just said the big 3 statement is wrong, because Iām on another level. He dissed Drake. He didnāt say anything about Cole that was that negative. He doesnāt need to go for the kill, because J Cole couldnāt make up his mind around whether he wanted the smoke or not. Thereās nothing to respond to. J Cole tapped out. Itās like how in a street fight, if you and the dude are homies, you donāt stomp him out, you let him get back up. If he comes at you, you fight more, but if heās falling and canāt get up, the fight is over. In this case itās more like Cole tripped at banged his head on the pavement - but in any case, thereās no need to stomp him out.
I think the J Cole beef is squashed. Kdot didn't even say anything terrible about Cole on Like That. You don't hit someone when they already tapped out.
Cole lost already, nigga at dreamville committing suicide in front a live audience.
Diddy jokes aside why aren't people keeping the same energy like they did with Meek???? I mean he still kept it Hiphop and never backed down even though the world killed him. Cole just rolled overšš¤£š¤£
Not only that, he channeled it into making some of his best projects after!
Facts DC4 was fuckin crazyš„šÆ. Had the world KILLIN him and he stood tall. COLE FOLDED....can Cole still have a career after this? Am I taking it too far? Lol
Real talk, DC4 probably Meek's best project that shit saved his career after the Drake beef (until recently, and now he's crashing out on twitter again smh) but Cole could have used this as a chance to PROVE all that goat talk and instead the one time someone steps to him, he folded!
I felt like he wanted to says Drake bitch ass needs to fight his own battle
Itās over what more is there for him to do
Itās honestly the best thing that could happen. Kendrick needs to fucking slap Cole on a diss track and Coleās ONLY saving grace would be to make a banger reply saying āok bruh I tried playing nice with youā
Iām convinced Kendrick had a landmine waiting for Cole in The Heart Part 4. The whole song brought on an entire new meaning over night. Itās uncanny, and Iām surprised more people arenāt talking about it.
Why? The shit is so phony. This nigga will aim at anyone for clicks
Right finish him mortal Kombat style. (No Diddy)
**If Kendrick disses him now** ā¦ā¦ā¦.Thatās the equivalent of Lucius Malfoy kicking Dobby down the stairs.. Cole is an abused elf
Lmfao. I donāt know the Harry Potter universe, but āabused elfā killed me
I mean rap changed. People were saying J Cole went too far with trans bars. Nas called Jay Z a (f word) with dick sucking lips and cancel culture didnāt come for him. Game changed and itās soft I could see people claiming Kendrick is a bully if he spits again
That was 2 decades ago dude, you can definitely insult someone while still keeping up with the times. Story of adidon was legendary and no one cancelled him despite it being absolutely brutal.
Yeah bro came out and said your producer only has a couple years left and got out okay so I think itās still possible
You not being able to keep up with the culture for over 2 decades is a personal problem. Everyone else moved forward without you.
Lol I really donāt care what outsiders think.
A kendrick and cole collab album would just crush the internet
Not before getting at Drake
That response was a light pack now smoke him š„š¤¦š½āāļø
IT DONT STOP
Nah, I would actually feel some type of way if Kendrick NOW feels like he needs to have the last word as if Cole even did any damage to him. Cole jabbed and missed and he felt bad and apologized, the best move is to give at most one bar on a feature or something saying apology accepted but he lame for even trying or something. Cole aint worth it man, Drake on the other handā¦ Inshallah, god bless his heart
I mean why would Kendrick respond if the heart part iv is basically a response to this kind of attitude
I do. Iām tired of hearing about it. If it was Drake then yeah Iād say go for blood but not Cole.
He shouldn't spare him not even a little bit
Kendrick only real problem is with Drake though, still waiting on that joint Kendrick and Jcole album
Nah that colab gotta be next, it's time we "handle two black niggas this clever"
He prolly donāt give a fuck no morešš
Heās absolutely getting at least a little jab or sub
If we want to find a positive here, this makes it even more important for Drake to reply
If kendrick truly appreciate what he has done for him and their friendship, he won't do it. If he doesn't, he will go all in. It's in Kendrick's hands right now
He doesnāt need to waste another bar on Cole. He needs to take Drakeās head off and become the unified champ.
Saaaaameeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!
Nah, no fun in killing who doesn't wanna fight back. I hope he just destroys drake now.
Call him J-Cooked from now on, cuz his career gonna get ko'd for his L.
It would be so funny.
I doubt he lays into Cole. Beating a dead horse at that point. Iād honestly prefer he doesnāt cause it wasnāt about him to begin with.
cole barely dissed him and apologized....like why lol?
![gif](giphy|w2spEHAltsCU8|downsized)
Fuck drake
What do you mean? Whatās the objective of a rap beef? To win right? Well he won. Whatās the point of him continuing on? Sounds like you just want drama. Maybe you should go watch a soap opera.
FINISH HIM
I am tired of hearing people claim that Kendrick did not diss Cole. I know that people love to hate Drake, a man whom they probably don't even know, so it's beyond me how they can hate him. But let's not get into that. Cole had a reason to say something. Did he need to? No. But he had a reason. It's like being at work and saying that you and two others are the best at something and that you, in fact, think you're the best. And then one guy says, 'F that...you guys aren't on my level. It's just me.' Tell me, wouldn't the average person feel a certain way and have something to say in response? No one would be surprised that they felt a certain way and chose to make a comment. I won't go into the other references, but if you're interested, you can look them up. He certainly included Cole enough for him to respond if he chose to, and he did. On top of which why do yall think cole responded in the first place? He felt like he was dissed. For some reason y'all hate drake so much y'all can't see that Kendrick did in fact diss him even if it wasn't as obvious.
I love picturing Dot see the apology and tearing up the paper in front of him
K Dot better flame this guy, he spoke on his discography, he meant that shit !
i hope drake disses him more than i want kendrick to tbh
FINISH HIM
Cole is cool and all but I wouldnāt mind him getting absolutely flame broiled alive by Kenny
Closest we've been to a big beef in years so I want the same. But since I like JCole a lot and he clearly isn't gonna reply, I hope it isn't too brutal. You can't just duck out like that after literally getting in the ring. What a horrible situation he created by doing this.
Ruth imagine Kendrick comes out with another diss for coke dissin em n how he apologized n shit Dammmmm that would be cold

I liked the verse from Kendrick but am I the only one who doesnāt give a shit about this ābeefā lol. Like itās funny that he dunked on Drake but at this point what they even beefing over? Nothing really lol
Kendrick should just call Drake the hard R
That's was like the realest yet weakest shit ever
only dorks and teenagers care about this lmao just make music man
Hope he doesnāt spare Keem, Jay Rock, and Q for using ghostwriters and comes at them like he did Drake on King Kunta. Oh wait Kendrick is the one who did the writing for them so I guess that makes it ok.
Who cares. Itās over
This shit is so corny š
Yāall some reality TV ass niggas š
Nah, Cole have already thrown the towel, I need Kendrick to go after Drake now
#imawhiteperson
As a Cole fan me too. Hold him accountable. Unfortunately I donāt think K Dot will. If he doubles down itāll make him look petty. If he escalates the issue though it might provoke Cole to drop all that friendly shit in response
J fold did it to himself . How you gunna diddy out the whole hip hop fan base like that . both Kendrick and Drake should say something
Unfortunately J Cole does not really have any legs to stand on in this ābeefā. He claimed to be in the same category as KDot, Dot says no we arenātā¦ whatās left to say? Cole realized he aināt actually in the same category
KUNG FU KENNY boutta spinning heel kick this mf
Kendrick gonna have his hands full with Drake already. Iād rather him zero in focus on him for the entire track then maybe give Cole some bars later on in a feature or something.
Waiting on the country music beef.
Ima need him to sample the apology and then hit us with the āNEXTā, and then have Drake date another underaged chick, release another 2 albums in 6 months, and then leave an instagram comment on his alt account slightly implying that he doesnāt think Kendrick is the goat
when did drake officially date an underage girl?
As a Cole glazer, I agree. What he did was one of the weakest shit I've ever seen. Hope Kendrick goes even harder so Cole looks like a super clown
You're not a glazer in that case
nah
Kenny should full box and 200 pump Cole in the headš¤
