    The word Mid is so reductive when it comes to discussing music. I just want us to champion what we actually LOVE about music vs being quick to try and label something as mid. Especially when videos like this show us that the word doesn’t really mean anything at all

    I think the whole “j cole is mid” resonates from the lil pump era. We forget how fast pump came up and had a legit movement against cole. He may not have many fans now but those same kids are in their 20’s and they probably gravitate more to carti style as opposed to that “hippity hop ya don’t stop” type songs. Pump found them at the most impressionable time. Even with the interview thing there wasn’t much cole could have done to win over that section of fans.

      @@hadjitube I havn't watched yet - but I always took it to mean mid = 5/10 which often used for attractiveness as a diss. And often in rating terms for forms of media like on IMDB a 5 wouldn't be considered good (or even average). * now having watched :D I also agree that a simple rating scale is pretty useless, Some music I can really like only suits my mood every now and then, Some doesn't appeal to me but I can see why people hold it in high regard and some only really works in the right setting.

    “mid” meaning has always meant the same thing. which is in whichever convoluted medium/genre of whatever it’s describing is Neither the Worst or The Best. It’s just “Mid”. Now how people react to whatever is “Mid” is purely Subjective given the circumstance. Mid can be considered good and Mid can be considered bad given the appropriate context.
    More often the younger generation reacts to “mid” negatively because they are infatuated with the Hyper sensationalized tier of any general Medium.
    I’m 29years old and mid just means mid to me. It doesn’t mean something is inherently bad or even subpar. It just means that it didn’t earn the Title of “A Timeless Masterpiece” and it Didn’t earn the Title of “Absolute Garbage”.
    For Instance, I can Say Kendrick Lamar’s GNX album is by far his worst album but his worst album is better than most people’s Best Album so overall I would rate it as a middle tier album or for short I can just say “it was mid for me personally”.

    to me, mid just means a generic ass song. no interesting lyrics or story, using popular production styles, using similar flows and cadence, etc. it makes the song sound like every other song and therefore it doesnt stand out.
