    Cole obviously changed his tone and realized the materialism and the award show accolades s--- is fake. Haven’t we been over this before? Early on, Cole was deep in the life of wanting to be a huge celebrity who wins awards. His tone changed. He realized all that s--- isn’t worth it. Move on.

    These award shows are pampered celebrities who try to out-cool each other. The media loves it.

    You are confused with rappers and artists. I don't talk about hip hop. I talk about music. Everyone cares about that, it's the ultimate testimony to your impact on the music world. And it is comperable cause you have to have multiple skills and character to win. Making great music isn't enough, just like being the best player in the NBA isn't enough to win. Your management, business partners, people you work with play major part in your success in winning a Grammy and winning a championship. s--- is deep and so much more than putting out great music.

    lmao discrediting the grammys cause of cole is so lame. Theres still tons of artists out there that say f--- the grammys but actually win quite a few. Cole just seems like a hater. He didnt win so now all of a sudden they dont mean anything to him.

    These rappers got award shows that support the culture, but don't even support them lol. n----s weird, I understand the Grammy's get you more recognition, but they can get the hip hop awards more recognition if they support the s---. Aint hip hop the biggest genre right now? And I honestly think they get their s--- right with who deserve the awards. Macklemore wouldn't have won that award over gkmc if it was the hip hop awards. Forest hills drive won aoty in 2015, rightfully so. They don't show the nominations on tv probanly cause most of the nominees and winners don't even show up

    Y'all swear some of us don't f--- with the Grammys because of Cole, I don't f--- with the Grammys because they give over hyped artists awards that they don't deserved. There's no way Rihanna should have went home emptied handed last year. Beyonce continues to get robbed by the Grammys. Yes! And it don't matter how y'all feel about Cole but your lying if you think that he shouldn't own a couple of Grammys. Chris Brown and Drake constantly get snubbed too.

    I'm pretty sure this was in the Eyez documentary.

    Anyways, from what I heard, the tone in his voice sounds the same exact way as Come Through and Chill.

    Hopefully, this song get released.
