fukk it, nikkas on this bird hate Jermaine too much. I’m not even a huge fan like that, but the way this forum downplays this man’s skills, and success is mind boggling to me. Cole doesn’t have a “classic” album but news flash does Jada or Fab have one? I’m taking some of Coles albums over any Fab album to keep it a stack, FHID is arguably better than any Jada or Cam (excluding Dipset work)album idc.He has classic tapes like the others. Has a string of consecutive platinum albums, seasoned veteran, A-/B+ spitter, more content in the music than Jada or Fab. Idk I got Jermaine top 25 OAT, bros the rap Chris Paul ..no ring but you can’t argue the output

No the fukk he ain’t lol. Maybe to y’all young suburban cats. J Cole lacks the skill of putting words together that stick.
Fam Cole has multiple quoteables lmao that aren’t even him trying to have bars, you say “First Things First”, and a mf will just randomly repeat to you “RIP Uncle Phil” lmao. Let’s no do this like the most memorable Fab lines aren’t corn, also in no technical rapper form is Cam on his level, and that whole punchline shyt from Fab is not on his 16-present Cole rapping level. Cole has stepped his bars something serious, Fab doesn’t have a song that makes you feel something like “03 Adolescence”, there’s no emotion in this music of these nikkas in all honestly compared to Cole

Your letting nostalgia cloud your mind, Jada/Cam/Fab none of them can give a powerful performance like this with that content, Cole even had Letterman old ass impressed

Who said the song was sappy, and why isn’t it good to you?
I’m sorry but y’all new age dudes fall for this woke shyt all the time. A Dude get on the stage with a dark back drop. Make their voice sound emotional. Close their eyes. Step away from mic. Harmonize some Bs. Close their eyes. Say generic shyt with no style or cleverness. This shyt ain’t no different than generic street shyt. It’s just different content. Cam, Jada and eventually Fab had their own lane and style. J Cole a wack version of Nas

He’s a better rapper than Cam and Fab stop it.

Cole is better rapper than Cam for sure. I'm not familiar with most of Fab's music so I don't know about that.

I think Gen Z, and some Millenials to an extent, as a whole rate rappers more on their artistry as opposed to what theyre actually saying like past generations. Great performance but it doesn't impress folks who came up on Clue Tapes. It's also not a good example to prove Cole is a superior MC.
