    Alright man, thats your opinion i guess. I'd say almost universally most podcasters, bloggers, youtubers and internet discourse seems to think that it's an amazing song (not just J. Cole fans). I dont think this song was meant to show much of his personality it was a throwaway song which was a lyrical flex and probably the best lyrical display from a rap song to come out this year so far. Theres also very few rappers who could make a song like this.

    I think your sentiments might be tainted by your arguments with someone in this thread as well but i dont know.

    Been looking for that notification as well. Guys are genuine, don’t play favorites, they don’t overdo it and put on an act like it seems some reactors do. They called out Cole for using Disney beats on the song KOD:') they have their criticisms but also know when s--- is good

    Yea, I respect anybody who is not biased when it comes to these rappers, and I can tell when a n----- biased and got a hidden agenda to what he saying..

    and I think they wait to drop reactions on purpose, they be trying to wait til it die down and everybody else done reacted to it lol. I feel like we gon get it either today or tomorrow

    And that’s just word of mouth.. n----- ain’t posted it on none of his socials.. I’m pretty sure it’s ppl who still don’t even know he dropped it. Everybody don’t follow hiphop blogs and sites

    TIL this day I feel like cole could be bigger if he pushed his s--- a lil more.. shidddd flood the game one time at least.. if I was in control of it I would’ve shot a vid for it and all lol, all that s--- would’ve been done and dropped the same time of release.. might delete later ain’t do what it could’ve because of lack of promo imo. All them lil videos he was dropping on his burner account should’ve been dropped on his main s---. I’m ready 24 would’ve been my lead single, a month before release, with a video shot in Harlem with DIPSET… let the people decide the second single, after release , what ever song was streaming the most..

    Shiddd, I think even down to artwork is part of promo and can determine how a album do or is received.. might delete later artwork was bland, no thought went into it.. think about forest hills drive.. classic artwork , thought went into it.. same with the off season.
