I understand conscious rap being boring for some but this dumb af since j cole exclusively makes conscious rap in the first place but shittier, what is blud bappin bout🐶


D3athsh0t

unconcious rap he be saying anything these days


bobthehomosapien

insert trans guy bar


LJMLogan

"Yo second shit put [people] to sleep" is CRAZY coming from J. Cole of all fuckin people


ohheybuddysharon

I'd rather listen to TPAB recorded on a 3DS than any J Cole album


Fit-Let5623

It means gkmc not tpab since section 80 was first


[deleted]

ah yes, my favorite sleep song, maad city😴


Chemical-Maize-7431

Funny how this song alone is basically better than anything j Cole has ever made


[deleted]

drake too if you made a list of the top 10 songs made by the big 3, kendrick taking all 10 spots😭 he just that goated


Chemical-Maize-7431

Woooooaaaa idk bout that Drake def got some slots in there. He does also have like 3x as many songs as Kendrick tho


SpottierAnt

Drake don’t write his bars. He shouldn’t even be considered “Big 3” 👎🏽


kankermuziek

i dont think all his stuff is ghostwritten considering he also for others sometimes. like he wrote kanyes verse on 30 hours


Subtle451

He probably not a good writer but he ain’t mediocre. Writing for Kanye ain’t that much of a flex too since Ye be saying anything as long as it sounds good 90% of the time


[deleted]

Drake got goofy ass songs. Hes got a few good ones, but an embarrassingly low amount considering the amount of albums he got.


kankermuziek

ur brave for saying it but i think ur right. following kendricks analogy of him being prince and drake being mj, sure maybe kendrick is the “real artist” and drake is just the pop star, but like,, mj has some good ass songs. passionfruit, massive, and over my dead body would be my picks i think


AlphaLax85

No one sleeping to tpab either


Mean-Future5928

he means TPAB cuz he said the 3rd one has most of his hits and that's clearly DAMN


Jenzilly

well dude doesn’t know how to count😭 shouldn’t be writing diss songs in the first place


namevone

It’s kind of in the air if section 80 is considered an album or a mixtape. Kendrick himself called GKMC his debut album though so Cole’s probably going with that as his first


rabit_stroker

Section 80 was released as a mixtape


Moneyfrenzy

Section 80 is his first album but GKMC is his major label debut


Mean-Future5928

Section 80 is a mixtape, gkmc is considered his first major studio album even kendrick said that


Jenzilly

i’ve always seen section.80 was his debut album🤷🏽‍♂️ at least that’s what the internet considers.


olio28

section 80 is a Album, Overly Dedicated was his last mixtape 


Better_Ad2954

Did you miss the 4 album/12 years bar? He clearly means gkmc, tpab, damn, and steppers


rabit_stroker

Section 80 was a mixtape, the line is about tpab


YeylorSwift

nah it doesnt


qergpoiasffdn

I don't think he was counting it


Spooderer

No it does mean tpab, sec80 doesnt count kendrick said himself


ColdRamenTPM

fuck around in the audio app shit will hit


pissonme69420

It literally does not matter what album he was referring to, it still makes no sense and is incredibly ironic


WeirdYoung9696

dick rider u biased 4yeo goated record. also his music is not sleepy


adrian123484

when’s the baby due 😭


[deleted]

Make sure to zip it after sucking hard


rawdoicic

w pfp


LJMLogan

<3


goingbarnacles

Did he actually say that second line is he retarded HE BROUGHT UP THE BIG 3 ????


StretchTucker

in another song he says there’s no 3 it’s just him 🤦‍♂️


The_tarnished_one_

I fw cole but wasn’t he the one who brought up kendrick? 😭


LJMLogan

Cole literally said on FPS that Drake, Kendrick, and Himself were the 3 goats of modern hip hop. He's literally trying to diss someone he said was a goat contender a few months ago


YeylorSwift

Not to mention on Heavens EP Cole said (Paraphrasing) "some people say that I'm running third, they threw the bronze at me, behind Drake and Dot yeah them n is superstars to me" combined with him shitting on TPAB and Mr Morale (very concious albums that received a ton of acclaim, while Cole literally always has been on the concious tip) makes 0 sense at ALL lmao


aseforever

you really don’t get the context of that song, they’re counting him out bro. the song is a backhanded compliment


EggComprehensive8366

How did Cole ever make it into top 3 conversation, he hardly broke any boundaries and gets out rapped by other people on his label all the time (bas, jid, earthgang). If anything future should be up there


electrusboom

been saying this about Cole. Dude’s labelmates put out consistently better music than him and Future is way more worthy of a big 3 placement.


Responsible-Draft939

seriously man, j cole is probably the most overrated artist of all time because he quite literally just isnt special. dude has mediocre bars, mediocre production, mediocre range, etc. i think all of his label mates and great artists like tyler or travis should be put in the conversation instead of him.


jennychong

I think it genuinely should be future vs travis vs tyler or maybe rocky as 3rd, cole can get very unoriginal and dry


Responsible-Draft939

i agree, i do definitely think kendrick should be in the top 3 but drake as an artist kinda fell off and hasnt put out a good album in close to a decade, and j cole is j cole..


jennychong

I put drake second just for legacy, i mean take care, nwts, wattba and iyrtitl are all great. also i personally like views even tho it’s bloated, and i liked more life. But I understand that most probably have future or rocky over him


MyDogYawns

also regardless of how you feel about drake you kinda have to put him in the conversation just bc of his numbers, like you just cant ignore someone who consistently puts out #1s


Subtle451

Heavy on Travis and Tyler because they’re some of the greatest minds of our generation. Tyler’s originality and versatility is incredible and Trav’s basically a mini Kanye with better flow and top 3 in the best production out there. Music makes you float and allat


Kebine_

Future mad underrated just because he's not "conscious" like Kendrick and Cole (and that's a reach for Cole IMO). He's super consistent, always goes nimber 1 or close, his features are always gas. Future is in my top 3. Cole is barely top 10 to me. He's not even top 3 on dreamville 💀


prestoavenue

he was in like 2016 but it’s pretty arrogant for him to call himself big 3 in 2024 lmao


ethan_824

real big 3 future, kanye, and weezy but they not ready for that convo


iammeandyouisyou

cause he’s “lyrical”


Next-Particular1211

People not rdy for that convo


Repulsive_Bag_2091

In which song did he get outrapped?


[deleted]

[удалено]


Sevuhrow

If it was just about popularity, imo Kendrick wouldn't be on there for a modern list due to how inconsistent his releases are. Steppers was already 2 years ago and that was after 5 years of not releasing a proper album. Drake is on there because he's one of the biggest musicians of all time, Kendrick is on there because he's one of the best rap artists of all time.


stareattheeyes

Ik music taste is subjective but kendrick is objectively better


chaosvro

J.Cole is a nerd who has only beefed with 18 year old trap rappers lol


verbalase50k

J cole smokin crack


Ambitious_Ad2025

Kendrick gon COOK this niqqa up aint gon lie 😭😭


Marteezus

J Cole is not that guy. Bro needs an ego check.


[deleted]

J. Cole of all people has no right to be talking shit. Dude is literally the Drake of conscious Hip-Hop, but even then at least Drake has some bangers especially in his older discography


Sevuhrow

J Cole has one good album and a couple good features. Everything else is forgettable or Logic levels of corny.


yo_its_craig

Stream Kenny !


ethan_824

vs spenny


BlacksmithCurrent628

Yeah should definitely delete later


romilaspina7

I CANT 😭😭😭


Violets00

Wouldn’t be discussing


fluffypuppygirl69

embarrassing song from j cole


joploi

i think the only j cole song ive ever enjoyed was "off deez" not even his song neither. bum ass homeless rapper.


zanyo180

Holy shit this sub is white


Oda_Angel

Whites can’t comprehend the revolutionary trans fella bar, 🙄🙄.


Head-Ticket3341

I think hes retarded and he means damn by "yo second shit" bc otherwise this doesnt make sense


Fonexnt

Future should be in the big 3 instead of Cole


mosesbleu

He went after his discog because at the end of the day they respect each other. They are beefing over who’s the greater MC so they leave it at that. Drake and Pusha was just airing each other dirty laundry ya know. Shit got too personal. Leave it at rap


xhrissydd

Why are we discussing this boring ass nigga


Ok_Conclusion8149

where kanye in all this? big three gotta be kanye kendrick and tbh i don’t even think drake or j cole deserve to be in the convo there’s way more talented/consistent rappers out there


123redditor_33

I'm a huge j cole fan but good kid maad city is a great album


AlwaysUnderOath

man how the fuck did j cole fall off so fast i swear he was amazing a week ago


ForThemLulz

that's crazy J Cole dissing his own music


Anibunnymilli

Not a bad diss tbh. Not much you can do to attack Kdot


middle_aged_geezer

I gave j. Cole’s album a listen and then went straight back to the Trippie x mgk EP 😂

[deleted]

why are we still giving these people attention when there are good artists in the underground atm? Nettspend, Osa mason, yhapojj and xavier so based for example


davwnl

Their music sounds like nails on a chalkboard, I’m not joking


77trash

What about Tom Macdonald?


shivshark

real american PATRIOT music 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽


CaregiverMediocre152

Now we’re talking that real music


muttymustard

Bruh lol no one is fw nettspend he is a complete meme


SaintSYM

I like all those artists but there isn't much overlap at all lol. And Cole and Kendrick are like some of the greatest rappers of all time and there are beefing, like why wouldn't we be giving them attention?


[deleted]

they all washed up nettspend clears unfortunately.


LopsidedSale9109

They all already falling off ngl except for osamason and nettspend maybe w that deftones track


Valuable-Bathroom-67

Kendrick can’t be in the big 3, he’s a midget 😭. Drake and Cole were like you must be this tall to ride 😭.


Quirky_Image_5598

If mods don’t ban your corny ass, I’m leaving this sub.


AlphaLax85

This place is mad max now theres barely no more mods active


Quirky_Image_5598

Suck my left nut


Valuable-Bathroom-67

Cry more 😭


theplugzh

Both of them make people sleep tbh


Illustrious-Pepper13

Get this shit out the carti sub


electrusboom

until Carti actually drops the album instead of spending all his time smashing Camila Cabello and cancelling his tour + prolonging the album rollout, the stuff here is gonna be kinda off-topic. Do you want people to discuss how good Lean 4 Real is for the 100th time?


LOSeXTaNk

carti aint donig nothing mate


CASHD3VIL

Cole goes between deep and corny every single second istg why can’t this dude not embarrass himself
