I think he got out of line with the guy that’s putting money in his pocket. So he had to be put in place.

Is this what it feels like to be in agreeance with Nate's hot takes😲
Which one did you agree with? 🤣
@ DRETL HOE!😂

Seeing people get oppressed is the whole reason you have civil rights. The idea is to see things you don’t agree with and show people in power you agree, not shut up cause it’s become common life.

yves, what about a 4 bar? a jay z esque flexing intro?
I appreciate pods like this. Lightning Rod takes to draw listeners in. If Cole makes music for cats that walk to work, who does Kodak, Youngboy, the Migos, & Tyler the Creator make music for? I’ve never been in a scenario in my entire life where I said: “you know what would be good right now, some Tyler the Creator…” LMAO. I legit laughed at the zzz reaction. Because the first thing that came to mind was “what does this potato built bastard listen to” and the thought alone drew me to ya’ll channel. I’ll give it a few episodes. Kudos guys.
😂😂 We're sure if you tune into the long form conversation, you'll appreciate the discussion! Thanks for tapping in
The amount of Cole slander is crazy
Cole: ♟️
Teach your mans how to squabble
Mfs will call Cole trash then say gtx is a great album smh
Thank you for the apology Rob 😭 MFers said I was buggin for pullin back - still threw rocks and ran but I lowkey still don’t blame him ma nigga really wanted to just bar out , niggas wasn’t tryna get called a pedo or get the fam involved! dawg he knew it was finna get disgusting
Yves, you gotta at least do the intro to the cypher?
AT LEAST!
Y'all trippin
Fans of Kendrick are people who think they know hip hop because they listen to Kendrick.. Cole’s music still better/easier to listen to than
Added to Our New England Culture Playlist🏆
yall funny
Like this is very unobjective do they even listen to cole
These niggas crazy
Bro the hate is crazy for your eyes only and Friday night lights are the deepest albums I heard in a minute
This rapping abt rapping narrative getting annoying
The conscious drake great way to sum him up
Not at all, especially if we are talking rapping. Drake does more than just that.
Ngl most of y’all’s disses on Cole weren’t really valid tbh. Sure some of them but half the stuff yall said you praising Kendrick on the same stuff you hating on Cole. Like at one point you criticize him for being a “high school rapper” when talking abt a track that is specifically talking about high school nostalgia and wanting to be a kid again so you don’t gotta deal with all the problems of adulthood
He definitely should not have entered that beef tho. And grippy was terrible
@@Rsmith21125 chill out bro the beef is not relevant now. Just learn to appreciate good music. One bad song doesn't make his whole disco bad. Y'all just fucking kdot dick riders who never listened to any jcole album and even started listening to kendrick while the beef and now come to speak about real rap. Keep your mouths fucking shut if you don't respect any other artist's art.
she’s CLOSE she’s definitely SECOND to michael ❤
Just re listened to “Might Delete Later” and it don’t hit the same, also realized there’s 12 tracks on the project, “GNX” also has 12 tracks, I feel like Kendrick did that intentionally with how calculated he is.
Might Delete Later > GNX
After how Cole moved, it can’t be…
I could drop 2 classics right now
@@angelgonzalez6966Pi > GNX
Yall are just haters😂that’s why this podcast ain’t poppin
Thanks for watching!
given the year kendrick had and the decisions he made plus being so offline all helped his aura even more, and this album was the red bow on top. i’m perfectly satisfied with this project being the intended release.
Respect! Which song from the album are you most excited to hear at the Super Bowl? 🍿
@@BadForTheCommunitytv off of course. n but my personal fav is heart pt 6

i think 25' is going to be the axis of this world 🗺️ ,like for real 💯 💯 to be honestly what stuff ,that Kendrick spoke about , i peeped this back like 3 years ago ,age ,to be honest ,Kendrick isn't wrong , to be honest with you Drake can do whatever he feels like, but that's going to come a time when he's going to really need to like just fall back and just fade away for a minute like he needs like take a vacation seriously

Trump he got more black vote more woman vote younger vote he increased in everything area Kamala is a puppet her polices goes with you pays her the most
Great interview!
Great interview 💎
Ghost of racism- Nate Nics😭😭😭
Another one for the books
I fw the album and Tyler but this is a stretch
I would put tyler ahead of drake in terms of raw talent that we have seen in at least the past few years. Old drake was good, but if we are being honest nothing he is releasing nowadays is big 3 material. I would keep cole in the big 3, especially with his new album yesterday. Kendrick, Tyler, Cole for this gen
Trump saved America
"STICKY" is a hood anthem, not a club record. Would bang at a school lunch table. Update: Nate said what I was thinking.
"Chips" is an extremely wild take. 😂
Better rapper than Cole? Eh... Maybe in a delivery aspect. Not lyrically, but definitely has more artistic range and versatility. So yes, better rapper, not better lyricist.
Tyler literally said "if you can't face it, my nigga you can ass it" He CLEARS cole
I believe so. 🤌🏾 Like, in the conversation, at least.
