[Ziggiy]

[No1]

Thats love.

Just means Benny ain’t charging Cole for the eventual feature the other way around.

At Cole's financial level, what is discounting a feature gonna do for him? Might as well do it for free if you fukk with someone like Benny.

If you taxing everybody then you barely gone do features. If you at Cole level there ain’t many who can afford a feature like that

 

[Izanami]

Not only was it free, which I’m not shocked by but Cole name is attached to the song so it reads as “Benny The Butcher & J.Cole”. This elevates the track and put Coles fanbase on the track to give it a bigger boost.

I be thinking a lot of times when rappers and producers say they got certain features for free ..it’s cap

or purposely done so the other act (usually bigger than them) looks like he’s doing charity work for the sake of hip hop culture because he doesn’t need the money…it’s low key just a flex

I’m certain drake does it when he does these random appearances …but he just takes all the money once the song generates revenue

I’m just speaking from a broke nikka perspective bro don’t mind me lol.


I just feel like once you’ve grinded yourself to a certain level then you should get paid for your skill. If there’s ANY current generation rapper who I feel has truly put in their 10,000 hours honing their craft its Cole. He put that work in so he should get paid to drop a verse even of its heavily discounted.


But like I said Cole is probably good on the money tip and i’m just another nikka

 

[Mike Wins]

Cole still getting his points as a songwriter and performer from whatever sales and streams it does so not exactly charity. But showing love and not charging to hop on an independent release is a good look for someone of Cole's stature if he's cool with Benny or a fan.

Different story if it's a major label release. Collect your fee in that case

 

[BK The Great]

That Jigga stimulus

 

[AJtheOne]

Cole a generous guy

 

[spliz]

That’s love.

Not only is Cole like infinitely richer, his albums have infinitely bigger budgets, his verses are infinitely more expensive and he doesn’t have rap features


Other than that, Benny signed to the company that Cole was the first artist to sign to. I wouldn’t expect anything less.

Depending on who it is, and how small the artist is, the big rappers will usually give a feature verse for free or heavily discounted
