J. Cole Goes at Noname in New Song, Update: Noname Claps Back

[Champagne Kudo]

I've been trying to understand the problem all day and for me it's come down to there is no problem.

First off she alluded to him and was totally in the wrong for that bc he was actually out there protesting. And then once he actually said something they got mad and said he was "tone checking" her or whatever. When he literally wasn't. She was alluding to him on Twitter tryna call him out. He was just giving his POV and then was basically saying "I'm out here doing my part but if that's not enough how can I do better?". But I guess that's still a problem for Twitter.

The man got called out for nothing and then clarified and didn't even hold a grudge against her. Like I do not get the problem.

[NaijaProdigy Redux]

Chance is such a fukking clown

 

[R=G]

I know he smarter than that...lol

 

[315]

See plenty of people (including women) defending him. Nobody's above reproach. fukk a "room"

 

[Hey_zeus]

This seems like a manufactured beef

 

[Mr Rager]

YooHoo!

 

[EarlyEarly]

Noname?

 

[⠀X ⠀]

This is why they’re mad?

You can but you also should acknowledge it's not a full representation of life.

I can go to a bar, engage in endless discussion with patrons there about how LeBron is better than MJ and get many of the people in the bar to agree with me.

When I leave the bar and go outside, that doesn't mean that everyone outside the bar now believes LeBron > MJ.

That's social media to me when it comes to situations like this. You can go there and debate ad nauseam about J. Cole's song, but when you log off, the outside world is still going on and there's countless other people who don't care or simply weren't in the "bar" to engage in the conversation themselves.

Exactly. Plus Twitter is for women, let’s be honest. Especially black women. Black men don’t use that shyt.

Man get this corny nikka the fukk up outta here

 

[Guess Who]

Ayo, imagine if the Muslim breh that helped Malcolm X in prison was like, “forget that brother Detroit Red...he ain’t down for the cause, he can learn this knowledge for HIMSELF!!”

All these holier than thou activist types end up creating echo chamber force fields where they feel like they can look down on ppl cuz they read more books or happened to have more mentors or some shyt. Imagine refusing to help your brothers and sisters get up to ur level and build stronger communities because of intellectual egocentrism. Whole shyt is counterproductive to the movement they say they’re trying to lead.

Like we don’t need all the numbers we can get.

i'm sure he is reachable too. it's not like noname is completely unknown

why did she publicly subtweet about him instead of reach out to him?

 

[NZA]

i can understand the tone policing accusation, but this is hip hop. she can make a song back at him. nobody needs plant the rapper to interject this nonsense
