If there is, I missed it too. I guess it's a reference to Reebok dropping him, but it still doesn't make sense.

It kinda makes sense...

The Nike logo is "Just Do It" i.e. don't think about it, if you want to do something, just do it...So, the rapper that said that, woke up one morning and "just did it" by putting on his Reeboks...And he did give a f_ck if his sneakers were Nike or not...He just did whatever he wanted to...

It's a little jab at Nike, because the "Just Do It" slogan is suppose to make people "Just do it" and wear Nike instead of any other brand...But that rapper kind of dumped on Nike, by "Just doing it" with a different brand...

If that makes sense...

Why would he be throwing shots at Nike? They weren't the company that dropped him. The line sounds like he just mixed up slogans more than anything else.

No every rap line is based on reality...

85% of the time, rappers are just saying things that sound good to them and the people around them...

Do you believe J Cole was trying to throw Autistic people under the bus...?

That's my thinking. I thought it was a pop at Reebok, like he didn't remember their slogan correctly instead got it mixed up with a better brand/Reeboks competitor.

I actually took it as even though, he was dropped by Reebok, but he still rocks them and using Nike's slogan "Just Do It" as a clever way to boast about it showing his allegiance to the Reebok brand regardless of his failed sponsorship.

Lol he went to deep... I think he was sayng, he wear his reeboks regardless of whether they sponsor him or not. (cleverly giving the opposition just as much shine and promotion in the free punch line)

Did reebok really even drop dude, he still promotes them heavy, and never said a bad word about the company.

I could be wrong but why rock reeboks all the time if they dropped you, it's not like they Nike why shout them out.
