    I agree, I think he needs to do something to get fans back excited.

    I googled some whole other s---, and this just popped up lol. But d---, this is exactly how I’m feeling… this whole situation just made me realize even more how corny these hip hop journalists and YouTubers are lol, I don’t take none of them n----s serious. how is you mad at a man for making his own decision?? I can see feeling some type of way at first, but to still be in your feelings bout it, that’s some goofy s--- lol

    One of the comments…..

    IMO the main issue is that the online obsessed nerds view Cole (and other rappers) as a product and feel entitled to getting entertained by them. So when Cole makes a mature and human decision, they lash out at him for "robbing" them of further entertainment by trying to drag him into the mud. Like if we take a step back and look at this situation as real people, making a whole song about how much you hate someone else is the corniest s--- I've ever heard of and if 2 of my friends started doing that to each other there's no way I'm joining in

    Cole should post about it. He’s the biggest piece of Dreamville and should help promote it. He could’ve put a lil verse on there, too.

    Probably independent from under interscope maybe… on Spotify it says “since the80s , dreamville and united masters”.. so yea, they off interscope look like.. united masters is Steve stoute s---, that’s who big x the plug release his albums and s--- under. They give the artists more freedom, and they own their masters under them

    I feel like interscope main priority on dreamville other than cole is JID.. that’s just me on the outside looking in at it tho… I feel like cozz , lute and omen need to branch out and do what earthgang did and go under United masters to release their music.. bas idk, I don’t really see him saying too much, he might be good under interscope..

    in earthgang breakfast club interview they said dreamville tell them they can drop whenever they ready, so when they get the ok from dreamville, I’m guessing the artists got to run it by interscope people too, and that’s where problem come in for them..

    At work listening to this earthgang album.. these n----s dont rap about nothing but p---- lmfaooo . I mean I get it, I like p---- and pretty b------s too, but gottdamnnnn. Freaky a--- n----s. They like an artsy version of dababy, cause that’s all that n----- rap about these days too..

    The production is nice on here tho, after this play through, I won’t listen to this s--- again tho lol

    Ari went on a lil rant today, said she want out of interscope and dreamville, said they playing with her lol., mannnn, idk, I feel like dreamville need to get from under interscope, so they can thrive.. told yall something ain’t right, and cole need to promote them n----s more, idk why bruh don’t post his artists when they drop, before might delete later he was posting everything he was featured on and dreamville drops, idk what he got going now.. tbr I don’t even think that’ll help them blow or nothing, but it would show he putting in effort lol. That s--- just weird to me, it don’t take much to post s--- on IG.. I know the n----- be online and s---.

    Then on the other hand, shiddd, jay z ain’t promote cole , we ain’t see cole behind jay everywhere, cole got out here and got it on his own, and put in work , plus his s--- connected , if your music just not connecting ain’t s--- the label can do about it.. the blow up got to be organic imo lol

    Listened to new Tyler. Sticky is the worst attempt at a b-----r I’ve seen in awhile from a high profile rapper. Awful. Tyler couldn’t make an anthem or good quality hit to save his life. Hey Jane is probably the best song. Storytelling is great and it’s genuine. The rest is wack. Production is what I expected. Over produced faux artsy fake hard but really soft s---.

    Cole needs to go back to making anthems and hits. Can’t Get Enough, Middle Child, GOMD, Work Out, No Role Modelz type s---. Everyone knows he can rap his a--- off. We want that plus more hits! Hip hop needs s--- like that again. Too many fake artsy rappers out there. We need more bob your head s---.
