Truly offensive to say he solidified himself in the industry with “Middle Child” in 2019. That’s a WILD TAKE when this man had 3 platinum albums and countless classic singles dating back to 08!
Can’t believe this guy actually said it was middle child that nailed J.coles spot in hip hop 🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️, as if he wasn’t putting out bangers before that
It's weird to talk about the evolution of J. Cole without mentioning the empire of Dreamville that he has created. Great vid tho much love. All hail King Cole the GOAT
Cole's verses on A lot and Pretty little fears just impresses me. That man's take on life and the sheer amount of lyrical skill that he has just hits differently. Especially A lot 's verse. That is so real and flows sooooooo well.
@@johnagyiri8362 You can like Travis and Cole at the same time you know. Just cause I got Rodeo as my profile pic doesn't mean I can't support other albums. I just have Rodeo as my profile pic cause 2014 Forest Hills Drive is already my Desktop background. No hate, its all love, I respect y'all opinions. But at the same time, I love and appreciate my Hip Hop, my beliefs. Peace.
I still remember when most people called J. Cole boring. It wasn’t until he dropped 2014 Forrest Hill Drive, that he turned haters into fans. I never understood why they called him boring in the first place
Shit Kendricks album 'C4' is him just rapping on mainly Wayne beats while tryna rap like wayne. One of the craziest musical evolution is Mac Miller's though.
My step-dad really changed my taste in music ever since he came into my life. He introduced me to J.Cole, Kendrick Lamar, Drake etc. I'm quite young and not many people in my grade know about J.Cole. J.Cole is by far one of my not only favourite rappers but also music composers. For Your Eyez only being my favourite with 2014 Forest Hill Drive being close behind. Coles lyrics in For Your Eyez Only really changed my perspective of the world and I'm forever greatful for it. Thank you Dad. Thank you J.Cole.
@@brashadcarr6759 It's one of the best albums of our generation period. MBDTF, TPAB, Good Kidd M.A.A.D. City, 2014 Forrest Hills Drive. Those are the 2010s Illmatic, All eyez on me, Enter the Wu Tang type shit.
Born sinner mannn, that album is SO underrated! Change my mind. Listen to chaining day, born sinner, land of the snakes, land of the snakes, LAND OF THE SNAKES, forbidden fruit, is she gon pop, and RUNAWAY! Those are all underrated but so good!
He's going down as one of the greatest of all time. He was instrumental of changing the trajectory of hip hop and music in general in the early 2010's.
I call that the Forgotten Renaissance because the Oldheads were so focused on trashing the worst of Hip Hop back then they missed a brand new 90s Esque wave... now look at the game
Kendrick, Cole, Drake for sure A$AP and Meek are close to great so they aren’t there yet Nicki is, but doesn’t carry herself like one. Sean isn’t close to great in any regard

Say what you want about him....he's himself, he's real, and he loves hip-hop. He's a student, OG, and master of the game. He's the reason why I love hip-hop. He embodies every element. He's one of the greatest.

I have so much respect for this man. It's wild people out there that discredit him because they think he's "boring"
J cole first songs (0:50) sounds just like Eminem in the Slim Shady Lp. That style is legendary and it it always be after these 2 legends.
Say what you want about him....he's himself, he's real, and he loves hip-hop. He's a student, OG, and master of the game. He's the reason why I love hip-hop. He embodies every element. He's one of the greatest.
This got me more excited to see him for the dreamville festival

Cole will forever be my favorite artist. He's also you favorite rappers favorite rapper can't wait for the fall off when it drops
This aged well
I remember following J Cole when he dropped The Warm Up. Figured he'd be as great as he is now. Wonderful to see a young rapper make it to the top and still produce top hits
I've been following him since before anything. To see him progress makes me cry. Like i knew him personally
mad respect, a truly inspirational artist
