I Mean I hear he is boring but he is outselling others like wale and meek mills but in the same breath i hear that Rocnation do not put any money behind him.
Why Is J. Cole selling gold and up? But others cant?

He has a core fanbase
Miguel
And dropping the same day as Kanye
The only way you're selling records today and you're not Jay-Z, Eminem, CACLEMORE, Drake* or Lil Wayne* is dropping the same day as one of them or creating singles that have an R&B SIMP nikka overtone
Its that simple.. Kendrick will only go gold next album if he doesn't swallow his pride for that DRAKE feature
Rap game is drying up brehs

He actually has a fanbase. A lot of rappers are mostly hype and buzz. Hype and buzz doesn't move units, having dedicated fans does. I'm talking the type of fans that will cop an album that they downloaded for free.
Him having the features on the singles isn't moving units either. His album sold more than Miguel's, which implies his fanbase is bigger.

Nah man. J cole clearly got the support of young average black nikkaz like no other. Before he released his shyt, all I saw on fb and twitter from dudes back home was Cole World this and that. Go on WSHH and the comments talking bout how he "bringing back the real, relatable stuff."
Remember the Who dat/Work Out blunder which resulted in album delays and the repositioning of cole with Miguel on ALL I WANT IS YOU?
He dropped a simp anthem single that feature MIGUEL and his album was released on the same day as Kanye West which resulted in Cole and eating good. He would've done Wale numbers had he dropped the album the following week

"Work Out" helped him get his album released and that song was still bigger than "All I Want Is You".
I agree that him dropping the same day as Ye helped him, but it's not the entire reason he sold. At one point, Born Sinner was performing better than Yeezus.

His album has sold MORE than Kanye, MORE than Miguel. You pulling out BS to fit a narrative. Idk when it happened but guys like Kendrick and Cole somehow became saviors of hip hop for the average, boring wanna be down relatable demographic of nikkaz and saddity bytchez.
