[BornLegendTV]

J. Cole the next rap Genius!!!!

[LightDarknessHero]

this is what I call real hip hop, not what you hear on the radio or at school. I'm 16 and I hate listening to Wacka, Gucci, etc. They say the same thing sex, drugs, money, cars etc. Rappers like J. Cole, Lupe, etc say things that the common person can relate to or who actually has "A Dollar & A Dream" meaning being successful in life without going the whole rags to riches concept. It's sad that my peers don't think this is real music and just a bunch a noise but they got it backwards.

[tubularguppy]

thank you for this jay-z!!!!!!!

[GFABTHEKING]

I got next on RocNation!!

[Maejaisrap561]

[rubikscube79]

Hmmm.....If this is what we have to look forward to from Roc Nation then a million thumbs up. If Jay can find a roster to match this kid then he's about to create a real dynasty unlike that shit him and Dame had going. lol

[ricojhb8]

the 2 people that gave this thumbs down must be mentally retarted , or just a dick sukin hatin as nigga cause this shit gooo harddd this tht real hiphop i been waitin 4 for so longggg , JCOLe da Mudafukin truthhhhh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!

[JaYFrEsHk60]

This nigga hard!!!

[1JohnCash1]

This beat is hard, and J.Cole is "THE TRUTH"

[vlashell06]

Nobody in the game is better than J.Cole.....NOBODY!

[theREALpromised1]

this nigga is the truth!

[TheRealMattC]

Go to my channel and check out the nigga tht roc nation ready pick up...and hes only 16...spittin the real...son is the truth...real talk.

[AsheyBlack24]

lyrically J. Cole cant be touched my niggas his lines compliment the flow jus sayin man cole is gunna push hip hop to the next level it should be at

[watitdookie23]

people saying he used "nigga" alot look at tupac, J Cole reminds me of a Tupac meets Hip Hop

[Tcbigman32]

cory gunz

[BossyGirlEnt]

a nigga nigga nigga nigga nigga nigga blah blah a nigga blah and nigga again nigga nigga that is all he is saying and jiberish in between

[ZayShady]

J.Cole is better than drake and gay z combined

[Master553300]

@ZayShady nah jay z used to be real good

[kidfight1]

lmao you guys are zoooked j cole kills drake no matter what

[DonMurcielago2010]

I see lil wayne going to roc nation in a few years!!

[thizhypy3000]

thizz song and the song "I Get Up" motivate meh when im down

[KillaCam4eva]

my favorite j. cole song

[boom122111]

he said he dont slipt dat fake shit rapper get us pump on 4real like wayne,gucci,drake,luda,soulja lame,an other rapper but there good but come on now j cole may not be hot now but his shit killed drakes even through there both good j cole is best - in cudi better know!

[garisonboy]

j cole use the N-word too much a bad habit that diminishes the substantives of his songs

[WeezyDrakeYoungMoney]

@garisonboy

Exactly, another reason why Drake is better. Drake doesn't have say nigga once every 3 lines

[ninehundredhiphop]

@WeezyDrakeYoungMoney what? drake os ok but cole is a better lyricist and producer. no exaggerations there kid

[LDU23]

@WeezyDrakeYoungMoney first person i heard say that drakes better than cole. j. cole's drake's master. drakes far behind j. cole and will never be at the level. this kid is a combination of all the greats combined. he's got lyricism that nobody has, a flow that's incomparable to others, his production is fuckin good, and his concepts in his songs are something that no one else does. he's the best in the game and he hasn't even come out yet.

[stryfetc]

@LDU23 all that's fine and dandy but here it is a year later from your comment and j.cole still sitting on the shelf wasting away under jay-z while drakes about to come out for a second time after already dropping a platinum album!!....you could say third time if you count "so far gone"....I mean he did get nominated for a grammy off the strength of that one and that was a mixtape!!..first dude to get nominated for a grammy off a mixtape!!...cole should leave jay,because he only put's out jay!!

[LDU23]

@stryfetc Cole World: The Sideline Story coming out September 27th just in case you didn't know. His albums dropping and he's on the Cole World Tour. So he's not on the "shelf" anymore. Of course Drake's gonna be on his second album. He's been out since 08. Does he want a cookie for that? He's gone so commercial, just look at who he makes music with. J.Cole deserves the most props because he does everything on his own. Barely features anyone and uses his own beats

[DSwaby21]

To Sick this some real shit

[DSwaby21]

To Sick

[platinum108]

l0l, some real shit right here

[meechamaka411]
