Like we can theorize all we want about how the battles would've went if he ain't start namedropping niggas girls but he did, so that's all we have to go off lmaoo
I made the mistake of debating with a Drake stan post-beef
They’re still healing i see
he said in his apology he got peer pressured by those around him and by fans
he said in his apology he got peer pressured by those around him and by fans
but if you that close and you ain't wanna lose a bro why let fans peer pressure you into hopping into the situation lol the fans don't know these niggas he does lol
thats the point dumbass, there is no song thats done those numbers ever before, oh, apart from every single kendrick lamar diss record. are you that f***ing gullible? or just stupid. maybe both? it's both isn't it.
Songs aren’t dropped exclusively on YouTube dummy. Don’t you understand that?
If Kendrick dropped the songs on streaming along with YouTube it would be less likes.
You are getting cooked with logic.

i'm ngl i had to block some accounts cuz they were just doing too much lol
the number of people that believe Cole’s bs is crazy
bro might be the best gaslighter the world has ever seen lol
“I could have won the beef” headass
Naming the song Port Antonio may mean he wrote this while in Jamaica, signaling he’s out of reach, or probably both.
Musically and lyrically, the song is great. The message itself was a self-serving voice note of him coming to terms with his actions or lack thereof. That’s fine, but part of the message is how it’s released in today’s digital age and he knows that.
Cole might have dropped this loosie because he did not want the beef to follow his next project, if that actually ends up being the Fall Off. Ironically, I think this kind of record could’ve been slotted in his next album and would’ve been fine. If anything, if the theme is correct, it might have helped it.
Biggest issue most Cole fans, like myself, have with him is his indecisiveness. Again, this is a rapper who gave an unsolicited apology record to Nas, has teased a final album for 8+ years with multiple full releases since, and reneged a lightly-jabbed diss track with a public apology attached.
No need to double down on his explaining why he’s sticking to principles over positions on a loosie. At this point, we get that Cole struggles with any fall out from his art stepping out of his perceived, normal character, but that’s exactly his fatal flaw as an artist. He stays within bounds.
So even Cole who wants to be cool with both sides and not be involved in the beef is admitting that they used bots. jesus christ
this is what I dont get and won't ever get.
Why rap like you did for years asking for smoke, saying you'd kill anyone and when the smoke comes to your door, you bow out.
He made a whole diss song too and then wanted to back out. no stand on that.
Friends with both sides simple as that what is the point him beefing with people he likes
Nah that's a fair take, I can get not rating him, personally that album is way too entrenched in my teen years to not consider it classic tho, not even the biggest Cole fan that record takes me back tho
i got loads of friends who like him so idc if people do but for me personally i feel like it’s frustrating getting told that you’re crazy for thinking he’s simply average.
like he isn’t terrible he can rap to a pretty decent level and can chop up a good beat. however i just never feel like i’m listening to undeniable music.
he has touched that undeniable raps level a few times like neighbors or 03 adolescence but i feel like it’s quite rare he touches those heights
People here just talking same s*** if he didn't really want beef with friends what is a big deal
its not the final result thats the issue. i can see kendrick beating drake in numbers, its unlikely but i can see it being realistic, what is not realistic however is bro was putting taylor swift numbers to shame if you go off the first hour. you would need to put taylor swift and ed sheeran together to even come close to his first hour
Kendrick and Drake beefing + the two dropping back to back disses at each other is 100% bigger than Taylor and Ed combined
The beef is a cultural phenomenon
Waking up to Twitter killing Cole for this
He f***ing killed this tho regardless of narratives
Like this is objectively good rapping
Smh would this hoe ass nigga shut up lol
Just another moment of him d***riding drake that’s what got him in this mess he’s been doing this for years

YE was NEVER scared of drake
He was more so jealous that the industry favored Drake more after the taylor swift incident than him
Lmao a text message, so threatening. The nigga went on multiple interviews glazing Drake and how his team can’t even equal one Drake. I’m just going with what Ye, his peer and dude who would know, has said multiple times. It’s cool to not like him, I don’t like him, but we gotta be honest lol. It’s too much music and it’s already aging fine
Kendrick won the beef but cole could have been a problem if this track is any indication
