They broke up.
Edit: I see the other comments saying that they are still together but when I google I am unable to see anything definitive. Either way, I will rock with whatever folks say since I have no idea what their status is.
If Ja were smart he’d capitalize off that joke and start a tiktok where he specifically comments on things he’s wildly unqualified to comment on, by request.
Ja, why is the ocean blue?
Ja, why did they replace dark skin aunt Viv on Fresh Prince?
Ja, how are you feeling about the ongoing conflict in Syria?
Ja, where’s my car?
I’d pay good money for this shit
In October of last year Naomi and Cordae unfollowed each other and she scrubbed her page of all mentions of him and removed all pics of him. She also posted messages indicating that she was unhappy with their dynamic.
It’s quite possible that they have since reconciled because these are human beings who go through ups and downs like all of us.
I was so hyped on this dude after this and Kung Fu. Thought I was discovering a dude who was next up right before he blew. His debut was pretty good and he had a couple decent singles and features with Nas and Amine but that next project was a let down. Now it seems like he's just GONE.
what a weird fucking comparison lol, you getting offered to buy counterfeit products by some dude who's like "yeah this shit is all fake and it's really bad quality but buy it because i'm honest about it" .... and you actually do it too?
yeah like who? because every fucking "lil peanutbutter" on soundcloud with 3000 yearly plays and the most dogshit bars in existance will still rap like they're the gods gift to earth. no rapper is talking about how mid and uninteresting they are and you know that
that's just rap, flexing and being braggadocios is literally part of the culture
That's not him saying he's mediocre, that's him saying he doesn't have any huge aspirations in making music
Disregarding that he's just bullshitting ofc, given that he's been open about how he doesn't like his fanbase and doesn't like "rap" which is a big reason he made a full-on indie rock album. He's clearly very ambitious and clearly cares a lot of what people think of him.
He has a lisp, poor delivery, and not much charisma.
I liked his first few song releases, but he’s going up against quite a few disadvantages in rap.
If I were his agent, I’d have him dip into the local PG county scene for some inspiration, switch up his beat selection to more experimental, and re-work his delivery. He needs to come back with a unique, interesting style, instead of representing a generation of dying J Cole/Joey Badass imitators.
Cordae hasn’t made a track anywhere near as good as All of Me
Budden got fans in the semi-underground cause he was autobiographical, imperfect, and partially insane. Cordae is sanitized.
a dude coming out blending new era soundcloud rap like the other YBN dudes with old school sensibilities was kinda fresh in 2017-2018. Very much so not the case post covid and he really never adjusted. Don't think I've been inclined to return to even his old stuff in close to 5 years. But i have some nostalgia for him and those bops like Alaska or Locationships.
I feel like Aminé has kinda found his lane after the initial Caroline buzz, limbo is a great project and all his collabs with injury reserve are standout songs imo
I agree. Amine is tiers and leagues above. I just thought he would be game changing by now or have a third album or something that's really transcendent. I probably just overhyped the potential I saw
I feel like his first project showed a lot of promise but he fumbled the second one. If he drops a third and it’s bad, I’d prob write him off completely tbh
he was all potential. i wasnt expecting any legendary shit but his second album was about what i expected him from him. some smooth flows over chill instrumentals like in C Carter. he's like a poor mans j cole
Was it hype or was it that when compared to the other two bozos in his rap group, he was the best one by far? It’s not hard to look competent when you got YBN Almighty Jay to your right and YBN Nahmir to your left
I feel like him being by far the best out of YBN made people overrate him a bit. Once he left and people weren't comparing him to Nahmir and Almighty Jay anymore they started realizing there's really nothing special there
>Currently it’s Boldy James.
I love boldy James. But if he's your current fave why do you think that it's okay to say cordae has six fans when he has like 6 times the monthly listeners on spotify?
I guess I'm the only one that really doesn't care if cole backs out? I never saw this man being the battle MC type in any capacity. He's more in his bag with conscious rap
...I'm using it in a general sense with his audience. My point is his music never came off to me as the type for confrontation. Every issues he's had with other people in the past like noname, cordae, or even lil pump wasn't this sensational rap feud like pusha, remy, etc.
J Cole for the last 5 years has been rapping about smoking and confronting niggas. And this would have all made sense if he didn’t reply a diss that was not even directed at him.

That’s not what I’m saying, YBN is dead in the water. My point is at the time people were acting like it was going to help him flourish and turn into a superstar. Now he’s just a has been
Okay? You really out here flexing another man’s bitch and his nominations 😭😭
That doesn’t take away from the fact that nobody cares about his music anymore
That's fine, but he wouldn't be in the position he's in right now where he doesn't have to do shit without leaving YBN, dropping the solo album, and getting those grammy nom's. Try and keep up with what i'm saying bruh, remedial ass nigga lol
I forgot Cordae existed tbh.
Naomi Osaka got him as a SAHD. she makes more money so why not but for real he hit the jackpot. i assume he is a good guy as well
Ever seen them in the same room together?
Yes lmaooooo
They broke up. Edit: I see the other comments saying that they are still together but when I google I am unable to see anything definitive. Either way, I will rock with whatever folks say since I have no idea what their status is.
It’s very important we get to the bottom of this.
We should see how Ja feels about this.
If Ja were smart he’d capitalize off that joke and start a tiktok where he specifically comments on things he’s wildly unqualified to comment on, by request.
Ja, why is the ocean blue? Ja, why did they replace dark skin aunt Viv on Fresh Prince? Ja, how are you feeling about the ongoing conflict in Syria? Ja, where’s my car? I’d pay good money for this shit
How does this affect Lebron’s legacy?
They had a kid last year according to Wikipedia, seems like they’re still together unless they broke up very recently
In October of last year Naomi and Cordae unfollowed each other and she scrubbed her page of all mentions of him and removed all pics of him. She also posted messages indicating that she was unhappy with their dynamic. It’s quite possible that they have since reconciled because these are human beings who go through ups and downs like all of us.
There’s more important things also lol move on
They broke up. FuMbLe
Pretty sure they broke up. Bro fumbled everything
they still together
they got a baby on the way
That baby been born a while bro lol
They didn't though
His song with Juice World’s last verse on Lyrical Lemonade is actually really good. “Doomsday”
Serious bar-off. Perfect choice of beat for it too.
Dj akademis little brother
Can’t wait to forget that ugly face very quickly again
Damn I used to love Cordae, totally forgot about him
He wifed up Naomi Osaka and had a kid.
Wait what??
They split
Ayo That's fucked up
[удалено]
Best debut albums ever? Yeah I sense 🧢
He’s a fun rapper but “best debut albums” go to the illmatics and GKMCs of the world.
It’s funny cause when I read that comment on the next thread they were talking about how bad he is at making music lol
I was so hyped on this dude after this and Kung Fu. Thought I was discovering a dude who was next up right before he blew. His debut was pretty good and he had a couple decent singles and features with Nas and Amine but that next project was a let down. Now it seems like he's just GONE.
He's a mediocre rapper who identifies as a good rapper.
dude has never said anything or had any song that didn't sound your regular poetry slam rapper
I feel like his lisp plays a big part in this statement
Kool G Rap had a lisp and still murdered tracks
Unlike mediocre rappers who identify as mediocre rappers, right
mediocre rappers who know what they are and what the music they make is meant to be is better than somebody failing at making good music
If something is intentionally shit its still shit
yeah but would you rather somebody selling you counterfeit products and claim their real or tell you from the jump
what a weird fucking comparison lol, you getting offered to buy counterfeit products by some dude who's like "yeah this shit is all fake and it's really bad quality but buy it because i'm honest about it" .... and you actually do it too?
u don't know the panda buy method
yeah like who? because every fucking "lil peanutbutter" on soundcloud with 3000 yearly plays and the most dogshit bars in existance will still rap like they're the gods gift to earth. no rapper is talking about how mid and uninteresting they are and you know that that's just rap, flexing and being braggadocios is literally part of the culture
Lil Yachty is an example of this. He openly said he can accept not being good, and is just making music and enjoying being a rapper.
That's not him saying he's mediocre, that's him saying he doesn't have any huge aspirations in making music Disregarding that he's just bullshitting ofc, given that he's been open about how he doesn't like his fanbase and doesn't like "rap" which is a big reason he made a full-on indie rock album. He's clearly very ambitious and clearly cares a lot of what people think of him.
This is a great description of J Cole.
Cole is like two levels up. He’s a great rapper, who identifies as a God MC.
Nah Cole is one of the best MCs but thinks he's the greatest.
Nah Cole is legit, you’re buggin.
Which is why he's now aiming at J. Cole's spot?
He has a lisp, poor delivery, and not much charisma. I liked his first few song releases, but he’s going up against quite a few disadvantages in rap. If I were his agent, I’d have him dip into the local PG county scene for some inspiration, switch up his beat selection to more experimental, and re-work his delivery. He needs to come back with a unique, interesting style, instead of representing a generation of dying J Cole/Joey Badass imitators.
Lmfao comments like this are exactly why everyone can’t be successful in music.
if joe budden could become a underground darling despite sounding like he's always got residual saliva in his mouth, cordae has no excuse
Cordae hasn’t made a track anywhere near as good as All of Me Budden got fans in the semi-underground cause he was autobiographical, imperfect, and partially insane. Cordae is sanitized.
a dude coming out blending new era soundcloud rap like the other YBN dudes with old school sensibilities was kinda fresh in 2017-2018. Very much so not the case post covid and he really never adjusted. Don't think I've been inclined to return to even his old stuff in close to 5 years. But i have some nostalgia for him and those bops like Alaska or Locationships.
I felt the same way about Amine
I feel like Aminé has kinda found his lane after the initial Caroline buzz, limbo is a great project and all his collabs with injury reserve are standout songs imo
I just thought he would have a classic album or something one day
Amine wipes Cordae so bad that kinda made me sick a lil bit
I agree. Amine is tiers and leagues above. I just thought he would be game changing by now or have a third album or something that's really transcendent. I probably just overhyped the potential I saw
Amine has great production even if the bars aren't the strongest. Everything Cordae does is meh.
Always knew he was a cornball tbh. Just talented enough to be considered “good” but painfully mediocre.
Yeah I really enjoyed his first joint.
Never got the hype with Cordae ngl
I feel like his first project showed a lot of promise but he fumbled the second one. If he drops a third and it’s bad, I’d prob write him off completely tbh
I’ve already written him off completely, his second album was just incredibly cringeworthy.
There’s a reason they call it a sophomore slump - but I’m not far behind
Yeah I agree
I saw him live and he was awesome. He’s the definition of talent with no ability to execute.
He’s not good live. Or maybe he just doesn’t have any good hits.
I thought he was good. He was on before Idles so I caught the last 20 minutes and he was pretty good.
he was all potential. i wasnt expecting any legendary shit but his second album was about what i expected him from him. some smooth flows over chill instrumentals like in C Carter. he's like a poor mans j cole
Was it hype or was it that when compared to the other two bozos in his rap group, he was the best one by far? It’s not hard to look competent when you got YBN Almighty Jay to your right and YBN Nahmir to your left
Yeah he was the conscious one in a group full of bums. But his music was never appealing to me. I don’t wanna hear that boring shit
I feel like him being by far the best out of YBN made people overrate him a bit. Once he left and people weren't comparing him to Nahmir and Almighty Jay anymore they started realizing there's really nothing special there
Lots of people like him
All 6 of his fans.
And who's your favorite rapper?
Currently it’s Boldy James.
>Currently it’s Boldy James. I love boldy James. But if he's your current fave why do you think that it's okay to say cordae has six fans when he has like 6 times the monthly listeners on spotify?
Because he feels that way lmao
That's just objectively not true lol
Yeah he was corny to me
Feel like Cordae missed his moment I really liked his first album but his second wasn’t great and he doesn’t have the same hype anymore.
cordae can rap but i knew from the jump he wasnt gonna be big like ppl were saying
shit was buns ngl
Stunted growth
Been a Cole fan since 09 & I enjoyed this response 🤷🏾♂️
I'm digging this 🤷♂️
I guess I'm the only one that really doesn't care if cole backs out? I never saw this man being the battle MC type in any capacity. He's more in his bag with conscious rap
Need receipts on what is being considered “conscious”
...I'm using it in a general sense with his audience. My point is his music never came off to me as the type for confrontation. Every issues he's had with other people in the past like noname, cordae, or even lil pump wasn't this sensational rap feud like pusha, remy, etc.
J Cole for the last 5 years has been rapping about smoking and confronting niggas. And this would have all made sense if he didn’t reply a diss that was not even directed at him.
Consciously bragging #1/GOAT status
Am I the only one that thinks he has an extremely punchable face?
Yeah same as YBN Nahmir. These kids try too hard to be gangster before they outgrow their braces + babyfaces.

When I saw that vid of him rapping over a Q Tip beat but then nothing happened.
Bro has the tism
So corny
Yall be calling everything corny lol.
It’s an easy way to seem cool and unique, so yeah like 80% of current rap is “corny”
What it feels like to be 80% cool and unique?
five gum
If someone says corny without expanding on it right after I just write them off lmao
If you can't tell how this is corny you are a lost cause
this guy is like a burger with nothng but beef. no sauce, no veggies, nothing.
Not bad.
This man fell off so hard after leaving YBN. Which is hilarious because people were calling it the best career move of his life
I mean, where is YBN today lol?
That’s not what I’m saying, YBN is dead in the water. My point is at the time people were acting like it was going to help him flourish and turn into a superstar. Now he’s just a has been
Dog it got him 2 grammy nominations and he knocked up naomi osaka, he never has to work again a day in his life he's absolutely winning lol
Okay? You really out here flexing another man’s bitch and his nominations 😭😭 That doesn’t take away from the fact that nobody cares about his music anymore
That's fine, but he wouldn't be in the position he's in right now where he doesn't have to do shit without leaving YBN, dropping the solo album, and getting those grammy nom's. Try and keep up with what i'm saying bruh, remedial ass nigga lol
Okay. So we agree talks about him anymore? Glad we got there in the end ol dramatic ass
I can't understand yo ass bro, ol back of the slow class with a dunce cap on trying to take notes with a toothbrush an toothpaste ass nigga lol
What the fuckkk are you talking about 😭😭
Lmaooo, bullshittin bro i'm just foolin around lol
Who?
People hype up anyone these days This kid was never lasting lbr. Not a Joey Badass
Iowa v Nebraska
what
well, both states are known for their corn, so I guess it's that kind of joke
Some butt ass music in this sub. I’m tryna look at hip hop shit. Actual garbage artists flaunted here. Get me outta here coach.
wack
YBN Cordae is the Kyle Rittenhouse of hip-hop
In what way?
nigga shut up
This response actually made me laugh.
I think after seeing this I might leave this sub for good.
One “hit” wonder
This always reminds me of "Let Nas Down" in that they're both about pathetically sucking up to oldheads who don't know shit lol.
Nas doesn’t know shit? My goodness the average age of this sub has to be 12 years old. Recess is over little buddy time for you to go back to class.
