J Cole has finally replied Kendrick Lamar, after the latter took shots at him and Drake in a guest verse on Future and Metro Booming’s “Like That.”
According to Kendrick, Both rap superstars should have refrained from including him in the big three on their duet “First Person Shooter,” released last year.
Replying to the diss, J. Cole took a direct shot at Lamar, with the surprise release of his new project “Might Delete Later,” responding to the diss on the concluding song “7 Minute Drill.”
On the track, the Fayetteville, NC native opened by addressing Lamar’s diss. “I got a phone call, they say that somebody dissing / You want some attention, it come with extensions,” he raps.
“He still doing shows but fell off like ‘The Simpsons’ / Your first shit was classic, your last shit was tragic / Your second shit put n—s to sleep but they gassed it / Your third shit was massive and that was your prime / I was trailing right behind and I just now hit mine.”
He continues by referencing Lamar’s five-part “The Heart” series that he’s rolled out in pieces throughout his career.
“He averaging one ‘Heart’ verse like every 30 months or something / If he wasn’t dissing, then we wouldn’t be discussing nothin’ / Blood don’t make me have to smoke this n—a ’cause I fuck with him / But push come to shove on this mic I will humble him.”
J. Cole gifted listeners with 12 tracks included on “Might Delete Later.” The project features guest appearances from Ari Lennox, Gucci Mane, Bas, Central Cee and Cam’Ron. He last released his sixth solo album, “The Off-Season,” in 2021.
