1) Kendrick is the greatest of his generation. He seeks no validation and is far ahead of anyone of these so called hip hop peers.
2) Don't act like you didn't hear the Control verse. Ever since then there has been an enormous amount of rappers saying they're the best in NY. Matter a fact J Cole even said that on one of his songs Lol Kendrick is in Control of the game. (pun intended)
3&4)FHD is a breath of fresh air????

You act like he is the only rapper dropping music this generation. You are ignoring so much better talent. There are future classics out like MNIMN and GKMC. FHD is just your average J Cole because J Cole is just an Okay rapper. Sure he is better than Drake but that's as far as I will put him as of now. Dude was being hyped up like he was gonna be the next greatest yet here we are 3 albums in and no classic music to be found. It's disappointing to say the least. Don't understand how you Cole fans will go as far as to put this album over GKMC but hey just because a rapper is your fav doesn't mean you can deny what's the better joint. MNIMN is straight Push nothing about that is deniable dude sounds just as dope as he was on HHNF and that's a classic. But what else can I say. Guess mediocre is the new dope U_U
5) That's an album of this generation so yea recently. MNIMN is also recently that was just a year ago you act like it was over 10 years ago if it was I wouldn't have mentioned it. Won't even get started on MBDF by Kanye that alone kills anything released over the past 10 years.
6)I find it hard to show these Cole fans the light but I understand when watching a rapper grow you can grow attached so if that's your fav ight cool. He isn't better than Kendrick but he is better than Drake.
7) Let's see. Like I said he went after Eminem then tried to play it off for joking on some real b*tch stuff made me not even wanna listen to that track again. Then he went on to say he's going to shoot a guy for his watch Lol Not really gonna listen to it unless I want to hear some recent Cole other than that the new Wu Tang is out so yea gonna go listen to that yo.
1. Gods you really didn't listen or just don't know rap music. Rakim(whom J. Cole said in January 28) was born on January 28th. Rakim's MC name was God MC. J. Cole then proceeded to say all those other names aren't God MC's, because their birthdays do not fall on January 28th, like his and Rakim.
2. When did Cole ever say he was the king? He said he
snatched the crown, and destroyed it. There are no more kings.
3. You went this deep on my personal opinion. FHD will be a classic. Just because you don't understand what he is saying in it, doesn't mean it's not. GKMC was an amazing album. I have been listening to that shit for 2 years. I said FHD is a breath of fresh air because that is exactly what it is. After this horrible year of rap music, at the end of it, we are all relieved that the God MC has blessed us with some Coleworld music. Just because you fail to see it, doesn't mean it's not a breath of fresh air.
4. Lmao I'll just quote J. Cole here. "You sleeping on the one that you've been dreaming about".
5. Not even going to address this because I already have. ^
6. Quit trying to dismiss my opinion because it does not go with yours.
You said GKMC > FHD because... You said so? Completely dismissing my opinion of it being < FHD.
Now you're saying MBDTF > anything in the past 10 years. So you're saying even greater than GKMC or MNIMN? I personally like GKMC more than MBDTF but as I've continued to say, this whole thing is about personal opinion. I can't tell you for fact that something is better than something else(unless it's obvious like a Kanye Album vs a Ja Rule album).
7 Come on dog... You really aren't that good at listening to meaningful rap. He didn't diss Em, or anyone else besides Iggy. The meaning behind the 'diss' is that those white artist took the sound black people made and have made a fortune off it. Elvis did it, Justin Timberlake did it, Eminem did it(and even admits he did it on Without me). Macklemore took the best rap album over GKMC and as most people know, that was some bullshit.
Again, you don't listen, so you don't understand. The fact that you believed Cole was saying he was going to shoot someone for his watch shows you how in-depth his storytelling ability is. The song is called A tale of 2 citiez. Come on dog... It's a song about 2 different people in the same city and how they perceive life in it.
The first verse is about a kid who grows up wanting to go to school and have a nice family and get a white picket fence. His friend gets robbed at a light by a guy in a car telling him to run his watch.
The second verse is about a kid who wants to push weight and make it out the hood. He robs a kid at a light and tells him to run his watch.
How can you think albums such as GKMC and MBDTF are good when you don't even listen. This leads me to believe you are either a d*ck rider and just jump on bandwagons, or you really just don't like J. Cole.
