    It’s number one on YouTube and it’s good. Positive, catchy and feel good message with social commentary that has radio appeal. You don’t see a lot of hip hop songs like this anymore. Everyone tries to be so hard it gets tiring

    But they are catchy or by bigger artists. No way this will go number 1. Specially when Cole feat Drake is about to drop :khaled2:


    It is what is, good message, corny song. One The Streets was way better and it didn’t stay around:kanye3:

    Cole has way better songs with a positive message. And having Durk on this type of song is just funny.

    Glad to see Marsh has moved from arguing in the Eminem thread to arguing in the J. Cole thread.

    Even though they don’t have projects that I like as a whole, you know I was excited for this one :hmem:

    never liked a whole Cole project. So I can’t say I’m excited for that. Durk’s, it depends, if it’s trap music everyone else can make, nah, if it’s drill, then it might be good. Chicago drill died with Von, maybe he can bring it back a bit.

    True, he does. Doesn’t take away that All My Life is good. It’s different than 99% of mainstream rap songs out right now. It’s got bars and a positive message. So Durk can’t grow and evolve? Oh, alright.

    He can, but 10 minutes ago he was rapping bout wanting his opps dead. You want evolution? Listen to Keef lol dude has only shot at people on Xbox for over a decade.

    Cole killed it, still think it’s not a good song tho

    Maybe. The year seems very dry and he's the only one from the Big 3 who hasn't dropped lately

    Cole is great at knowing when it’s time to Rap Rap and when it’s time to dumb it down.

    Watching ll cool j interview with Angela ye, and he was talking about how you got rappers talking bout retiring, but they thinking of retiring not because they tired of making music, they really don’t know what to do next and they trying to figure it out. … Made me think of Cole lol… s--- lowkey sound bout right tbr…. Think Cole done figured it out lowkey.. that n----- ain’t bout to retire, that s--- goofy, what rapper really retires lol. Might fall back for a lil bit, but the creativity in you and live for rap never go away
