So, what do y'all think about people saying maybe Jay Z sent Cole at Kanye?

 

Dec 4, 2016

Jay Z is J Cole's daddy

 

Dec 4, 2016

Honestly, don't care. I just hope Cole's new album is his best work.

 

Dec 4, 2016

Wasn't even a diss tho. Just like Control wasn't a diss..

Cole just a concerned fan about Ye and wants to be someone who doesn't just blindly stan Ye like every other yes man in music. Just like Kendrick didn't wanna say hip-hop was dope during Control..

He just trying to help the man realize he's lost his way.

If this album were to have features, who do yall think they would be?

Only potential one I can see would be Kendrick maybe. Anything else I honestly don't know.

We Interrupt Your Regularly Scheduled Programming to Bring You This Very Important Public Service Announcement​

[Intro: Gloria Carter]
Shawn Carter was born December 4th, weighing in at 10 pounds, 8 ounces. He was the last of my four children. The only one who didn't give me any pain when I gave birth to him. And that's how I knew that he was a special child


They say "They never really miss you 'til you dead or you gone"
So on that note, I'm leaving after the song
So you ain't gotta feel no way about Jay so long
At least let me tell you why I'm this way, hold on
I was conceived by Gloria Carter and Adnes Reeves
Who made love under the sycamore tree
Which makes me a more sicker MC
And my momma would claim
At 10 pounds, when I was born, I didn't give her no pain
Although through the years I gave her her fair share
I gave her her first real scare
I made up for birth when I got here
She knows my purpose wasn't purpose; I ain't perfect, I care
But I feel worthless ‘cause my shirts wasn't matching my gear
Now I'm just scratching the surface
‘Cause what's buried under there
Was a kid torn apart once his pop disappeared
I went to school, got good grades, could behave when I wanted
But I had demons deep inside
That would raise when confronted

[Interlude: Gloria Carter]
Shawn was a very shy child growing up. He was into sports, and a funny story is at 4 he taught himself how to ride a bike. A two-wheeler at that, isn't that special? But I noticed a change in him when me and my husband broke up


Now, all the teachers couldn't reach me
And my momma couldn't beat me
Hard enough to match the pain of my pops not seeing me
So, with that disdain in my membrane
Got on my p---- game; f--- the world, my defense came
Then DeHaven introduced me to the game
Spanish Jose introduced me to 'caine; I'm a hustler now
My gear is in and I'm in the in-crowd
And all the wavy light-skinned girls is loving me now
My self-esteem went through the roof, man, I got my swag
Got a Volvo from this girl when her man got bagged
Plus I hit my momma with cash from a show that I had
Supposedly, knowing nobody paid Jaz wack a---
I'm getting ahead of myself, by the way, I could rap
But that came second to me movin' this crack
"Gimme a second, I swear," I would say about my rap career
Till '96 came, n----s, I'm here; goodbye!

[Interlude: Gloria Carter]
Shawn used to be in the kitchen, beating on the table and rapping until the wee hours of the morning. And then I bought him a boom box, and his sisters and brothers said he would drive them nuts. But that was my way to keep him close to me and out of trouble

Goodbye to the game, all the spoils, the adrenaline rush
Your blood boils you in the spot, knowing cops could rush
And you in a drop, you're so easy to touch
No two days are alike
Except the first and fifteenth, pretty much
And "trust" is a word you seldom hear from us
Hustlers, we don't sleep, we rest one eye up
And the drought will define a man when the well dries up
You learn the worth of water without work
You thirst 'til you die, yup!
And n----s get tied up for product
And little brothers' ring fingers get cut up
To show mothers they really got 'em
And this was the stress I lived with
'Til I decided to try this rap s--- for a livin', I pray I'm forgiven
For every bad decision I made, every sister I played
‘Cause I'm still paranoid to this day
And it's nobody's fault, I made the decisions I made
This is the life I chose, or rather, the life that chose me


If you can't respect that, your whole perspective is wack
Maybe you'll love me when I fade to black​

As much as I love Cole and artists like him who are about lyricism and what made rap, rap... I really wish he would work with some contemporary artists... A Future and J Cole song would give me a boner

 

Dec 4, 2016

f---ing classic!!

 

Dec 4, 2016

with j cole's unibrow its really getting...

 

Dec 4, 2016

My hype for 4 your eyez only no where near my hype for FHD. Not in a bad way, just not hype, which could be a good thing.

 

Dec 4, 2016

That s--- is childish af. Like Cole made this song, because Hov told him too? Come on bro. If that was the case, which I dont think it is, that would literally make the song trash to me, because then it would be ingenuine.

 

Dec 4, 2016

On some real s---.

When FHD came out I was finishing out one of the most stressful semesters of my life. I had just gotten my heart broken and was swamped with school. The introduction into January 28th made me legit cry. s--- was poetic and it just made me want to succeed even more.

I'm on my last semester of school and struggling to meet these final deadlines. It's beyond me even being excited for the album, I need this again.
