    "I'm thinkin' of payin' Wayne what Universal owes
    My nigga spent a lifetime goin' platinum and gold
    He should own half of the label, s*** outta control
    Somebody get Larry Jackson on the phone
    I need some ownership if we pressin' go
    'Cause business is boomin' on behalf of me
    I need a bite outta the Apple like Adam and Eve
    We gon' have to break the billi' curse
    I need my paper long like "A Milli" verse
    Or too long like a sentence from a Philly judge
    F*** is the point in all the beefin' when we really blood?
    Nobody wins when the family feuds, nigga
    Everybody gotta eat, we can't exclude niggas"

    ^^^

    Thanks for posting that line btw. I forgot how hard Drake went in.

    Very powerful and prophetic verse.

    So he's in the crib with Puff?

    Always heard this narrative but always felt like Blu was his own artist & never connected the two them mentally

    They both storytelling backpack rappers but that’s about it for me

    Cole and Blu are more similar than ya’ll realize.

    Below the Heavens is p much a natural evolution of what J. Cole was doing with The Warm Up and Friday Night Lights, and where I’m sure he would’ve went if it wasn’t for label meddling on Sideline Story.

    Cole lyrically deals with introspection and personal growth like Blu. Blu keeps it more raw tho and J. Cole leans into a more polished sound

    I mean understand the comparison, i just don’t personally feel that way about their music that’s all. Especially nowadays

    Like Blu latest effort doesn’t sound like Coles latest at all really outside of the introspection you was talking about at times

    Oh for sure, past 5 or 6 years they’ve diverged a lot. But for the bulk of their careers they’ve been p similar

    It's a forced comparison, people been making for years. They haven't really been similar since the early 10s tho.
