The real is back the ville is back🐐🥶🌎🔥

Do you agree with Complex on this??

well deserved hope he drops an album this summer

Should be required to drop a project to win this award.

better than when they gave the 2022 spot to 21 Savage i guess…

Cole deserves it

He killed every feature this year. If this award required an album it would have gone to Drake or Travis.. rappers who have both been on the decline.

Lie to me and act like there was any current mainstream act rapping better in 2023

By a wide margin too. Bro smoked everyone.

Cole didn’t even drop last year man

the correct answer is me

For What? A couple of features, no singles and no album?

He only had 3 features reach top 40 in the H100 and 2 of them were features on Drake songs...

'All My Life' was the only feature that did well commercially.

And I say this as someone who likes Cole, I respect him a lot and can't wait for his new album.

Been a great couple of years for Cole, on top of his game right now. What's wild is that he said his features were writing exercises just makes you even more excited to tune into his upcoming album. Gonna be crazy, can see him doing 300k with his new album tbh he's more popular than he's ever been

Passport Bros fans get ITT

Can’t wait for the goat to drop his next album

He is currently the best rapper alive it's no debate. He has earnt this and I don't understand people having a problem with this decision 2023 was a dry year for hip-hop who the f*** else would you give it to?

Shoulda been Drake. Scary Hours 3 was crazy

Or even Doja Cat

i think paint the town red verse 2 might've been better than any verse cole dropped this year

gunna robbed again

I was about to take a nap j cole over benedryl it is

Their selection for this award always sucks

Glazing J Cole in 2024 is insane
