I wish you could see the look on my face right now, listening to this shyt, jesus fukking christ.

I didn't even like U.B.R., and i hated big brother, this shyt is like a combination of both.

It's like damn he's not horrible but it's just...i almost feel like somebody should be paying me to listen to him, he's a chore.

:pachaha::pachaha: You like that BASURA monotone ass nikka Roc Marciano but got the nerve to say listening to Cole is a chore? :lolbron::lolbron::stopitslime::stopitslime:

Don't know if this has been posted. But Cole explained this song, and the trouble of making a single at the Listening party. Good stuff.

That's what I'm saying, these airheads can't catch the underlying meaning of the song. Of those 17 minutes of talking about the song only the last minute was about Nas.

Cats can't connect references and sentences to anything else than the words.

I think its just the cheese factor of the hook and its overall forced-guilt that kills it for people. Instead of being a confessional "Dear Diary" type record, he forces this "disappointing Nas" (who cares) element to it

He's using corny new-age hip-hop baiting tactics to get an extremely simple message across. Artistic compromise and guilt, are nothing new however. Basically stretching out Hov's "forgive me, Hip-Hop" hook-line-and-sinker on Moment of Clarity. He shouldve named it "Cool Story Bro" and called it a day.

NY all day..Da Stead & BK..
Different concept,I woulda liked see him turn the tables on Nas and show him to be a hypocrite in front of the world liike Hov did:mjpls:....he coulda been a fan and then a emcee and gave Nas the :childplease:....instead he acted like Nas son too much...if Pac is Jesus Nas shoulda got the :pacspit: in a verse on this song

The song is weird to.me cause it's not like Nas even came to dude directly and shytted on him...No I.D came to Cole and told him Nas wasnt feelin the track..he expected more..but No I.D shoulda kept that convo between him and Nas instead of runnin his mouth about a non issue...u can't be a hypocrite for not liking a song or thinkin someone ur a fan of can do better..people turning it into some shyt like Nas shytted on Cole for makin a commercial single which ain't true...

Which is why this nikka is trash.

He just doesn't get it.

Even the way he approaches rapping just sounds corny. :beli:

His team ain't worth shyt either. They ain't helping him elevate.

Nas's criticism is just the vehicle to make said record. Which is more about label politics, making radio friendly records that goes against what you really want to make, and competing with your idols.

Listen to Cole explain the record...





What he says here in this 15 minute story, is the record condensed into 4min.

Replace "vehicle" with "gimmick" :takedat:

Dude, am I suppose to give a fukk about your opinion? Your batshyt crazy ass has been posting non stop about this album, rambling on about what you think is wrong about Cole. The fukk you trying to prove?

Sorry bra, you just seem like a weirdo. I really don't give a fukk about what you think J.Cole should do or not do.

I got your point 50 posts ago. And I don't give a shyt about what you think. Take your crazy somewhere else..
