But he killed Miguel in the video though
lmao
that's gonna hinder his success. remember that?
maybe he would have done 500k had he not killed miguel in the video
If J. Cole really does the projected numbers, he's officially a rap superstar

Sean sold 87k first week and tapped out at 400k on his debut album and wasn't even a big artist at the time. Wale did 28k and tapped out at 200k on his debut than finally went gold with Ambition. Y'all nikkas kill me with this fanbase shyt

J Cole is not a Superstar in any form of the word....superstars transcend the music.... nobody gives a fukk about J Cole in any capacity other than rap.
Wayne,TI,Jay,Ludacris,50,Kanye,Snoop and possibly Em are the only superstars in hip hop.
J Cole is just a rapper, nothing more.

so what that say bout them

That will not happen for a rapper unless you sell a million in the first week, do movies, have 3 #1 tracks in a row or if you are controversial.
Rap is like country or rock, if you don't care for the genre you don't know about cats until they move insane numbers (that didn't even help Taylor Swift, she wasn't world famous until controversy helped her. She would blow up in any event but before controversy struck she had 2 albums that had moved like 3-4 million and motherfukkers still didn't know who she was), controversy etc.
His songs chart very high on the HOT100 though, his albums sell a lot, his tours sell out what more do you want? Him to appear on The View?

Breh. He isn't saying Cole is irrelevant. All he is saying is that he isn't a superstar. Which is true.
He might be a rap superstar...but an overall superstar? Nah.
I said rap in the title
i ain't out here claiming J. Cole is Justin Timberlake
i know better than that. but that boy moving units in the city like shawty lo

My bad.Rap superstar is what I assumed we were talking about here. That's what the thread title says?
Obviously there is different levels to this shyt, there is Snoop Dogg type of people who everyone knows (even though nobody cares about him). But what's the lowest level of superstar? Drake?
Superstardom is obviously not only about record sales and shyt, or otherwise Big Boi and 3 stacks should be ahead of every rapper except Jay and Em.
The term star is kinda obscure, just like producer.
I remember being
on the 
when BP3 leaked and someone was like "
J Cole is a singer?".Back when I heard that track I wouldve bet money that dude would never be where he is at so salute to him. Whoever mentioned him and Kendrick doing numbers is good for the culture I agree.
