Well, J. Cole got his Jay-Z verse, and it centers around a classic Jay line from “A Million and One Questions.” Now, Hov gets on the track. Updated w/the dirty.

Didnt like it that much from 1st listen,you gotta do better than this was very unoriginal and bland ,thought the beat was too scattered didnt like that either
this fucking garbage. i was think that his album was gonna be dope, but from what i’ve heard thus far i’m not impressed. he had a couple of dope mixtapes. s
How the hell you people hating? He finally got his single. Jay goes OFF on his verse. Shut yall fuckin hatin as this plays on the radio and in the club. And im not even a cole stan
i dont get all the hating — beat is fire — cole does his thing — he is always a little different with his verses and thats what keeps his shit so damn good
really cole selling out man, was going to buy your album but after lights please, in the morning, work out, cant get enough, and this mr nice watch im going to just buy the few tracks that are good for 99 cents, thanks for the mixtapes no thanks for this selling out shit.
This is far from Dubstep. If you knew the basics of the sound then you would know not to call it that. This is Hip-Hop pure and simple. So-so track but this beat is snappin’ tho!
i like the chorus but he should have done another verse with he’s rapping not doing the chorus or say a word or two then stop.
beat is pretty good grew on me.
maybe yall dont like the track because you dont have a nice sound system to listen to it with. its fucking nice the beat and how cole raps with the beat like they were one i cant wait until his album drops
Somebody slap MCMASTERMIND since Black Album. Have you not listened to American Gangster sounds like a Jay Hater. You ran to listen so you can hate. You want his old sh@t buy his old album.
all of ya’ll hating on this are some backpackin faggots….I’m one of the biggest Cole fans on earth but what ya’ll want him to do? Part of being an artist is experimentation. Cole hit it on the head on this…how can u sorry lame ass muthafuckas hate on this shit?!
HAHA @ you cole stans
this is TRASH !!!
yall making weak excuses talking bout “maybe you dont have a good system to jam it in” GTFHO lol
and yall saying its a radio and club hit what about work out wasnt that the “Hit” he needed its was trash thats why its a bonus give up fuck cole world and his lame faggot fans
cole calls his album a classic. so far we have heard, in the morning, lights please, can’t get enough, work out, mr nice watch, cheer up all attempts at doing what the next guy is doing. thanks for the mixtapes but calling your album a classic, classical albums breath originiality and you homie are selling out.
Wow Im giving this a 1 because I expected so much from this but this is wack! When the hell will JCole get some real producers? Wow this album is going to be a fail…SMFH RIP JColes career
listen, j cole has made some of the deepest song and mixtapes in rap and hip hop, he doesnt get much money for those compared to what he will get for song like this that will be popular with “mainstream fans” he’s already said that theres some deep songs he’s probably releasing this as a single (if he is) because the man wants to get money … i dont blame him at all and the songs not bad stop comparing it with his deeper tunes.
Beat hot…flow was all over the place at first but i fucks wit the track. Jay verse was hot. Im a slap the shit outta the jackass that said Black album was last solid record jay came out wit smh…take ya ass to FYE and show u sumthin 4 stars cuz i cant give it 3.5
If you guys haven’t watch the J.Cole interview on this song. J. Cole wanted Jay-Z on a different song titled “God’s Gift”, but Jay didnt want to do it to that song and did a verse with this song instead.
Check the video out here.
Hmmmm. was really looking forward to this track, after a few spins not really sure if I’m feelin it or not. Beat is straight, Jay’s verse is solid, but my immediate reaction is with two MC’s with the skill and creativity these dudes have this collab should have been something a bit more memorable. Cole’s verses are ehhh, probably going to grow on me but Jay should have hopped on God’s Gift instead of this iffy, commercial track…not bad just was expecting something on the level of FNL or The Warmup…COLE WORLD
wtf is this electronic shit he keeps trying to fucken go for, its trash. cole release music like you been releasing, warm up, come up, friday nights, but this shit is just average
its alright lets be honest this isnt a classic or whatever. that being said cole needs to just put a verse where he raps not say 2 words then stop like he does in the song disgusting. still buying the album though.
thought it would be more…..hiphop, didnt expect cole to do a techno-ish track, im a big j. cole fan, still cant wait 2 hea the full lp and ill be buyin it, BUT i hate jay-z nowadays, its like he breaths words, i cant really explain it, but it gets on my nervs, i woulda bin more than happy if jay-z wasnt on this lp…..i think this track would sound sik full blast in a club, but the reason why i like cole’s music is cuz i can chil out, bang sum headphones on and chill.
this track gets 3/5
so far…..this album isnt a classic, and i really thought it would be
breath his words… so u tell me u don’t like listening to lyrics, so u like listening to people with soft voices and cute little hooks bitch stfu the guy spits hard fucking bars this nigga has so many diffrent entendres that you prolly too dumb to even recognize the meaning, im not racist but ur prolly a white suburban scrub stop rating people based on stupid shit thats like me saying I don’t like mj because he likes to stick his tongue out during dunks fuckin prick
I havent heard jay on a classic status beat in forever. I never liked rappers rapping on beats like these cuz i feel like a techno dude would do a better job way to easily.
Whosoever wants to see J Cole make it in the Game you shouldn’t hate on a track like this taking nothing away from the track…thats why its called an album it has to be a musically balanced project not a mono tone collection of tracks plus this put him on the radio too..Cole Army lets educate these none believers….aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah nice watch…………….
the only person to really give J a run for his money on a track thus far has been B.I.G and Emininem. It’s so clear that none of these youngsters, got nothing for him, so clear.
Jay @ 26
“back when we first learned to use rubbers, he never learned, so in turn we’re kidnapping his baby mother.
Wayne @ 28
“talkin bout Baby money, i got your baby money, kidnap your bitch see how much you love your lady money.”
meanwhile im just choppin off doors, put the front on the back cuz im back and forth, put the front on the back of the BACH like a boss cuz im frontin on niggas when im backin off!!!#mandatstough
i am a HUGE cole fan. WHAT THE FUCK is going on here? This is not the warm up, even friday night lights. this is TWO WORDS and they clearly are SOLD OUT, or at least on the road to it.
mr nice watch? this is supposed to inspire me?
damn it cole. for the VERY FIRST TIME you gotta me contemplating whether i should buy this album anymore.
Cole is only playin the game to change the game even the cole fans cant get this smh his wwhole album cant be an emotional ride u have to dumb it down sometimes
Like I said in a previous post, J.Cole is talented as hell, BUT he does not have star power and cannot make HITS or commercial friendly songs. Plus he waited so long to drop an album that he built up too much anticipation. Now if its not a close classic its a disappointment and with songs like this he albums looking to be VERY UNDERWHELMING.
Come on people buy the album. This is the first luke warm song i have heard from the songs on the album. well 2 including work out. but these are songs for the radio. You can tell which songs are for the radio and for the album. Me personally i never listen to the radio songs on albums so it doesnt effect whether the album is hot or not. Its still gon be fire.
Sometimes I fucking hate hip-hop fans. Why the hell does everything have to sound the same, why can the genre of music that most of us Love grow? Why does it have to remain stagnate is sound, to what you think it should be? The song is hot, the lyrics are good and it pushes the envelope.
Miss me with the negativity. Firstly unlike most of you ignornant dudes who can not create an opinion for yourselves, I judge music based on music, not the artist. Am I a Wayne fan?, not at all but when he makes a good song, I give him credit. I…key word, I, like this song for the reasons stated.
If I was J.Cole I would be tight. Jayz gave Drake one of the best verse of his career on light up and he gave a half assed barly a sixteen for J.coles big debut. I would be pisssed
your sayin hes awful, based on 1 track???
so far, the album is not a classic, work out and this are easily the weakest cole tracks on the lp (even tho work out is a bonus cut)
listen to the come up, the warm up and friday night lights, then tell me j. cole is awful….fukin mug
This sounds like the first version of “Who Gon Stop Me?!” off Watch The Throne. They threw it to Cole… SMH! Cole gon lose all his fans. LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL!!!!! THIS AINT WHAT WE WAITIN FOR J COLE!!!!!!!!!!!!! YO ASS GON BE BACK IN FAYETNAM!!!!! LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL!!!!!!!! AND A DAMN COMET IS COMIN BETWEEN THE EARTH AND THE SUN THE DAY BEFORE YOU DROPPIN YOUR ALBUM!!!!! IT’S OVER MY GUY!! BACK TO THE BLOCK!!! 2 Star
there’s nothing interesting about this song, it’s just all generic shyt. j cole got some clever punchlines but he’s just another fuckin rapper, he ain’t no artist.
I’ll be honest if it plays in the club, it might get some run. Other than that, Its a corny track that sounds like a throwaway from “Watch The Throne”.
I used to think that but then i heard “Reasonable Doubt, Vol. 2, The Blueprint, The Black Album, and American Gangster” and I realized he’s one of the best. I’ll admit since 2009 he’s fallen off though, but he’s still decent.
And to think people at the listening session wanted to hear this track again, you would’ve at least though it would be alright but damn this was disappointing. What was he thinking 2/5
Lupe had a better Jay-Z collab, Kanye had a better Jay-Z collab, 50 Cent had a better Jay-Z collab, Drake had a better Jay-Z collab … EVEN LIL WAYNE HAD A BETTER FIRST TIME JAY-Z COLLAB.
sad day. you speak the truth my friend, had high expectations for this kid was going to buy his album because he was humble and spit hard real shit, but ill onyl buy single tracks now.
Jay Z is CLEARLY more advanced than this dude. He was even trying hard. Doesn’t mean Cole is bad but anybody who thinks Cole is better than Jay is buggin’.
After hearing this I’m scared. I really hope the album isn’t gonna be like this. J. Cole has way to much talent for it to be put to waste like this. Production is ok but J Cole being the artist and poet that he is, I expected way more. This is a dissappointment. I’ve waited 2-1/2 years for this album. If this isn’t a classic I give up on modern day hip hop
SMH, looks like this guy is one hit wonder! this is pure garbage and him having gay-z on it is even worser than i thought it would be. i give this 1/5 rating..this shit is _________ fill the blank hint(wackness)
RELAX GUYS J COLE SAID HE KNOWS WHAT HES DOING HE SAID HES TRYING TO WIN OVER MAINSTREAM AND MAINTAIN REAL HIP-HOP LOYALTY IS THE BEST SUPPORT AN ARTIST CAN RECEIVE
man if you done watching this sorry ass J, Cole come back and watch me some more, if you done watching the throne, come back and watch me for more, if you done watching that Bi-polar mothafucka, come back and watch me for more, if you done watching carter IV, come to me kids.. LUPE The KILLA and Nasty NAS are running this game sucka!! Food & Liquor 2 = classic Life is Good = Classic peace God
What a waste of a beat. Cole should focus on becoming a full time producer and leave the rap game alone. YMCMB got the game on lock. Drake or Wayne wouldve showed you what to do with one of ya beats man
what happened to who dat…yo cant cop if your joint sounds like this…I know u wanna get on the radio but nah son….Drake aint doing this Bs and he shining…oh yeah shout out to Gay Z
so your telling me lupe’s song cant get you out of my head is better than j. cole’s career? so im guessing the come up, warm up and fnl weren’t shit right. listen i like lupe and agree with the other 4 statements but the first one i really doubt it.
major dissapointment..crazy thing is that im sure Cole didnt even want jay to throw a verse in on This track..i think Jay was still in watch the throne mode, and was really diggin this wack ass beat lol… this joint will get radio play, and im still positive this album will be well worth the wait. (tracks like this make it hard to use the word classic, but we’ll see). Oh, and jay actually Killed this track..cole was decent on the second verse. But I think everyone, including Cole were hoping for more of that classic hip hop vibe to come from this first collab, but jay thinking marketing right now.
Jay Z is ill, he said:
Meanwhile I’m just chopping off doors
Put the front on the back cause it’s back and forth,
put the front on the back like the back of a porch,
so I’m frontin’ on niggas when I’m backing up
Pussy u were never a Cole fan to begin with. hate whn yall niggas tlk shit on here. ur gona tell us ur no longer a cole fan cuz of this song? who the fuck cares. Us real cole fans know this dude is the real deal. this song mite be average which jus shows u how good cole is cuz his average is way betta thn most a the shit out. so plzz with all respect buy ur self a britney spears CD one song dnt change ntn #cole world 9/27
I’m a huge Cole fan. But this song feels like waking up early Christmas morning, and after putting “Classic Collaboration” down on my Xmas list, I came downstairs to find nothing but Coal under the tree.
This is a long way off from what I expected. Doesn’t even come close to “Pressure” off Food N Liqour.
I still have faith in the other 10 songs I haven’t heard though. And I’m still gonna buy the album.
hmm, maybe there is something to the idea that really lyrical rappers can’t make albums. Not only is this song garbage, it sounds like J COle was messing around in his basement when he made it. My guess (and I hope) is, this is an old song that was just put out to extend the buzz. Its a demo.
Jay Cole is still a rookie, yawl need to fall back on the kid. I want him to do well too but you guys are being a little UNFAIR at this point with new artist and the numbers game.
after “Workout” and “In the Morning” being announced as album cuts i started to get worried and i said to my self the chances of this being a classic album are slim … now this.
NO MORE CLASSIC, ITS OVER. You could have made another Illmatic, Slim Shady LP or Reasonable Doubt but its waaay too late now. The album so far sounds like some generic mainstream shit.
hahaha are you hearing yourself talk? lmao..no way in hell J Cole would eva make another ILLmatic..Only emcee that is as good as Nas would be Lupe and he made Food & Liqour now thats a classic LP.
this shit is not bad as most of yall say it is …it may not be what you expect from a collab from j cole one of the best up and coming and Jay z one of the all time greats but its sstill a ok song just listen to it a couple mo times
Technically this nigga has already mastered failure n moved on to the level that comes after failin tho. This nigga has developed his own science when it comes to that shit….its “quantum failure” nahmean. This nigga can fail without even having his album out. The nigga can inception fail his way thru his sorry ass rapping career. Think its a game yo? This nigga takes his failure very fuckin seriously son and brags about it in every song. smh this nigga only one word can summarize his rap careers = #FAIL
you guys are being waay to fuckin hard on cole! drake can autotune his shit and sell millions while cole can make a original beat and excellent wordplay and sell nothing? Thats fucked up!
It’s whack, but rather this shit than the Carter IV, which has one good song, of which he removed his verse. That’s already sold a million records. Shit-Hop is the thing it seems.
The hook part is cool but the shit is wack as a whole… This dude is fucking overated…..People only feel dude cause he a “safe” lookin light skin nigga. Nothin he put out has justified all the hype. He don’t deserve none of this real talk
LOL prime example of when hating goes wrong…this nigga doesnt like the song so he’s living in the comment section so he can attack people who like it
when i dont like a song i dont obsess over it and hate when other people like it
i cant wait to see what hater has to say about my comment cuz i know he’s still in here listening to this song he hates and refreshing the comments like his life depends on it LMAO
ummm no..Lupe got in the game with a classic #lp = Food & Liquor, Game got in the game with hot album. even 50 got in the game with hot album too.. Cole aint rookie, his just wack lets face it. So i dont see yal stans point? his no rookie, he’s a ONE Hit Wonder
agree cosign 100%..and to those of you who thinks Cole is taking over the game lmao yal niggas fall back..Nasty Nas and Lupe/Black Thought running this game 4real
“Technically this nigga has already mastered failure n moved on to the level that comes after failin tho. This nigga has developed his own science when it comes to that shit….its “quantum failure” nahmean. This nigga can fail without even having his album out.

Its normal to hate something when its unexpected and different than what you thought it would be. With that said, I really like it. Has an infectious hook and the tempo is crazy. Great lyrics too. The sound is different but if this was on WTT it would be one of the best songs.
ayo this shits wack. at least to me. it’s like all these beats cats are choosing these days are wack. game’s album had wack beats with game name droppin. carter iv had wack beats with lil wayne telling knock knock jokes. and it looks like cole world is gonna be average at best. i’m not losing hope yet. im checkin for the new jay electronica the new elzhi the new nas the new phonte and the fashawn. best album released since august was random axe. even jay and kanye were barely above average. we in a drought for good hip hop and yall desparate mofuckas is drinking the sand
its a good song ill give it a 4 some people act like it was suppose to change the history of rap music talking about they disappointed and the album gonna suck ahah stans

I got a Hublot I call it Tebow
I strap that bitch with a Gator band
Y’all niggas ball half time ya’ll niggas like the gator band
Y’all niggas need a timeout, who got these niggas all wind up
Cocksucka I’m 7.30, y’all know where you’ll niggas gon wind up
No more Mr Nice Guy, hello Mr Nice Watch
Only but a matter of time ‘fore I hit ya’ll niggas with the nice shot
Y’all niggas, better not call the law
Get no blood on my Audemar
Meaning ya’ll better not waste my time
When y’all ready I’ll take you over
Meanwhile I’m just chopping off doors
Put the front on the back cause I’m back and forth
Put the front on the back of the Bach’ like a boss
So I fronting on niggas when I’m backing off
Uh, what up Cole, show time
Let these niggas know
Adjust ya Rollies on these muthaf-cking hoes
Whenever you ready, go!
get no blood on my audemar?!!! Wayne’s a blood my dude. Dont sleep on hov man. He’s considered at goat for a reason. And that maybach line, that shit cray!
@ Springfield’s Finest you are wrong about that.. because Lucky Lefty is one of Jay-Z’s nicknames!! And just proof i got a few bars from “Who Gon’ Stop Me”
“Im winning again Im at the Wynn/ Im at Tables Im gamblin’/ Lucky Lefty I expect a seven/i been through hell im expecting heaven”
“Oh No You Didn’t, way a min, no you didn’t, you disloyal full ass bitch made niggas” Y’all are trippin on how y’all coming at a Cole y’all the reason y real artist get shelved well whack ones get famous. WTF is y’all into these days not one song on this entire site has positive comments like really y’all have become addicted to hatred y’all need to go to rehab to get rid of y’all addiction to spewing out hate. First they love then they hate you. Cole barely on his way to the top and your trying to prevent that this track is a great concept for what he was going for he wasn’t trying to kick knowledge he was just spitting every track aint gonna be on sum 2 Pac Changes type shit where he is spitting about life problems come on man y’all are gonna ruin this guys perception with all these negative comments for the fans J Cole is trying to get that he has yet reached. You no how many people don’t even know who J Cole is who have never heard the warm up or fnl or any of his tracks. So he makes a songs for the radio big deal how much classic songs and versus has he given away for free like i said y’all are a bunch of disloyal motherfuckas on sum real shit man y’all make me sick this nigga is living his dream and y’all trying to stop that quit hating niggas
With all due respect, Lil Wayne is a genius and I love his music, but to be truthful, I’m not feeling his last album at all. I mean Game put out a better effort than he did.
its cool to hate on jay-z now its the thing to do the same with 50 cent and kanye when rappers try to do positive shit like fund raising for kids to go to college you only see a few comments and they mostly say they doing it because they have a album out or one about to drop its funny because most of the comments be personal like you actually know these people outside of music the majority of these rappers have grown up in single parent homes they really had to really hustle up money just to feed there family’s but when they try to give back in a major way they being fake.jay-z can walk through marcy with oprah go chill and be relaxed thats because he always have and alsways will give back to the people.

Today we gave out 300 turkeys at the Church of God in Christ Jesus of the Apostles Faith located in South Jamaica, in the neighborhood where 50 threw Forever Young Day in September.
Wednesday November 18th G-Unity will be serving food to homeless shelters that will be bused in by the United House of Prayer for All People.
Saturday November 21st G-Unity will be at Holy Trinity handing out 500 turkeys to families in need
jayz has a foundation that sends 50 kids to college each yr full rides
ROCAFELLA HAD NUMEROUS TURKEY DAYS IN MARCY . JAY IS MORE GLOBAL AND WOULD RATHER MUCH HELP THE REAL HOODS IN AFRICA. ROSS HAS SOME !! CALLED BE OUT DAY IN MIAMI EVERY YEAR GIVING KIDS BACK TO SCHOOL MATERIAL. THESE niccaS DON’T NEED AN ALBUM AROUND THE CORNER TO GIVE BACK TO THE COMMUNITY.
i don’t really know what to say about this one…i’m a huge cole and hov fan and i want to love it but…idk. a part of me feel like “friday night lights” was intended to be “cole world: the sideline story”…it wont be long, lost ones, killers, and how high were supposed to be on the album as well. i think cole started getting hella pressure from the label to make a “hit” and he got frustrated and started making songs like “disgusting”, “work out”, “heavy”. “cant get enough”. and “mr nice watch”. i was super excited for this album to buy and hear this album but idk now. i guess i was expecting a classic.
Cole fan or not, if you honestly listened to this with an open mind and formulated opinion after hearing it as opposed to going into it already sayin’…”shit’s fire” you would understand just how whack this shit is. And to those sayin’ he wasted a hov 16…nawl cuz hov was just as whack on this shit…everything about this song was weak, verses, production, beat…Cole is becoming everything he used to rap against. lame.
Please there is nothing wrong with the song. People who say they Love hip-hop hate anything different. If you are listening to the lyrics, what is wrong with the song. Everybody can be hater, it is so easy
this song is dope!! whoever is hating knows nothing about the music industry, if he doesnt make a few mainstream songs then how’s he suppose to sell and stay relevant? If he doesnt have a radio friendly song and doesnt get spins hes gonna end up getting dropped from the label. He probably has 4 mainstream songs out of all the records he’s ever released. know about the industry and how it works before you talk shit.
real quick look at the number of plays and refresh your page and look how quick the plays go up almost 10 thousand plays and 338 hate posts sumthing tells me you guys are in denial track is dope for what he was going for
WooooooW. Jay went in so hard! The wordplay is craaaazy!
“I got a Hublot, I call it Tebow
I strap that bitch with a gator band
Y’all niggas ball half-time
Y’all niggas like the Gator band
Y’all niggas need a time out
Who got these niggas all wound up?
Sucka I’m 7:30
Y’all know where y’all niggas gonna wind up?”
not the right beat for jay to be on..this shits crazy…i wish the jay feature had more of a feel like drake did with jay on thank me later..i forget the name of it right now..but this shits different..its prolly why jay z took so long for his verse to get to em lol he shoulda told him no get a diff beat FUCK IT STILL COLE WORLD BABY..THE ALBUMS GONNA BE A CLASSIC EVERYONE KNOWS THAT..COLE SHOULDA WENT OUTSIDE THE BOX AND GOT A BEAT FROM SOMEONE ELSE FOR THIS THOUGH..HES STILL THE BEST RAPPER ALIVE
Man o my this,is 1 overated dude even drake,had way better songs,on hes first album ….seems like dude has no swagg at all drake is half jew and he has more swagg better sounding music the whole nine yards ..this dude cole has no deleivery at all I give it a one because Jay z helped the kid if jay wasent on it it would b a zero the beat is wack he has no good lines to make me say yea thats dope ..news flash if he got four song out and they all wack what u think the rest of songs he got left gonna do put a fork in him hes done im not even gonna buy off the streets either im not gonna frostwire it waste of time
Hahahaha this probably Pokemon Red sample see “Heavy” is the normal stage in the fire gym and “Mr. Nice Watch” is like the boss gym trainer who you beat to get the fire badge, hahahaha so wack
I really was looking for some fresh hiphop blood but seems,like hes not the chosen 1 beat,is,whack lame bars and,Jay z realy couldent save him on this song I want be listening to none of hes new singles again the are all dispicable I give it a 2 for afort his a young kid in this cole world tryna make it like he needs a personality someone can realate 2 dude has 0 swagg he will do 78 thousand first week hes not even gonna pass that gay blood dude with a butterfly on his face
At the beginning I was like, It can be real, freaking synth stuff…But the more you listen to it, the more the beat is growing and the message of the song will get to us. Lets believe in the Chosen One.
When are you guys going to realize Jay is not Lil wayne you have to play Jay’s shit back, because his shit is not for retards. He goes so hard on this one. Just because Jay whole flow is intelligent people think he does not go hard. Unlike Wayne who says a whole bunch of dumb shit fellow by a few intelligent words, so you retards can think.
yup 100% some people dont read and never got out of the ninth grade you cant expect them to listen on a certain level if they cant read and comprehend on a certain level this song is good but its hate jay-z year so sorry cole you gettin a 1 from me its not personal but fuck jay-z HAHAA WTT COLE WORLD BITCHES. ILL BE BACK IN 2020 TO REVIEW DETOX PEACE
I was so excited for this kid, been listening to him for 2 years, what i was so hyped about was he stood alone, away from everyone else, was his own artist. Now he is just like everyone else. most of the hate is coming from j cole fans who are just dissapointed in the nigga cause he is selling out to an extent, meaning his creativity is watered down and influenced by the industry and what the next rapper is doing.
who ever says this wack is retarded.the way jay breaks down the maybach and cole killed it lines like “they same time is money but really girl its not if we ever go broke then time is all we got” cole is gonna succeed bc his mentor is jay
you guys are dumb this is clearly for the radio…. THERE IS NO WAY THIS IS FOR US COLE FANS!!!!! damn man listen to it 5 times i bet ull start bobbing ur head by the 3rd replay. hes not trying to be someoneelse thats just what rado hits soundlike. chill the f ooutttt
Wordd man, this is called a *single* he needs a way of drawing all the people who just skim through music and listen for a hot hook. This shit is dope after a few listens, bump it in the whip I guarantee you’ll feel it.
Man I’ve been cole fan since the warm up…and this is not what i expected to hear from the jay-z assisted song..I mean Drakes light up is wayyyy better than this shit….im not even gonna say it has to grown on me because at this point he should be dropping straight classics…what a waste of Jay-Z verse…damn..
really? the fuck Jay? im tired of this bragging bout how much money Jiggas got music. we fuckin know. now you’re rubbin off on Cole. people get pissed when i say i don’t like Jay anymore, well when i know he is one of the best and most lyrical MCs and he makes the same music as these new idiots do then i’m gonna hate him. i expect these two to get together and destroy some lyrics and talk about some worldly shit. but no, more fuckin braggin! and i hate this fuckin beat. sooooooo disappointed. co-sign J cole WTF. 3
obviously you didnt understand the concept of my comment. i new by the name it was gonna be about money. i wasnt excpecting the beat to suck. yeah compared to all the other 2000 songs just like it by all these wack rappers they kill it, same goes for WTT. but when you get two people together that are capable of making some soulful music but instead would rather make the same shit everyone else does, it’s stupid.
Decent verses. Don’t like the beat at all it has to much of a pop sound to it. It will sound good with a live band at a concert though and with like a dubstep remix or something but I hope this isn’t the only jayz feature on the album.
Its funny,Drake puts out a ok song,while J.Cole got some hits out,then Drake releases hits,and J.Cole drops this shit,the title sounds like a Pokemon Nintendo Game,J.Cole is good,but all that hype for nothing
okay this is a “top ten” friendly song but its still prety good. Theres gotta be a balance. I mean lost ones is still on the album so he clearly hasnt sold out.
beat is fuckin SICKKKKKK you hate cause it sounds different, listen to their flows, shit is fuckin fire. fuckin goon as niggas hear a modern sounding beat and immediately hate.
WTF are you talking about. If you think this beat is sick you bumped your head somewhere. Its good but not sickk, and its not like he did anything great with it to make people see past the dubstep like beat. This is J cole we talking about people think he’s the hip hop god right now- this is too weak
Im not hatin, I like the song, but j cole should of held off on releasing this till the album was out. Come on now, you waited forever for the jay-z verse you got it and your handing it over like that?
I got a Hublot I call it Tebow
I strap that bitch with a Gator band
Y’all niggas ball half time ya’ll niggas like the gator band
Y’all niggas need a timeout, who got these niggas all wind up
Cocksucka I’m 7.30, y’all know where you’ll niggas gon wind up
No more Mr Nice Guy, hello Mr Nice Watch
Only but a matter of time ‘fore I hit ya’ll niggas with the nice shot
Y’all niggas, better not call the law
Get no blood on my Audemar
Meaning ya’ll better not waste my time
When y’all ready I’ll take you over
Meanwhile I’m just chopping off doors
Put the front on the back cause I’m back and forth
Put the front on the back of the ‘bach like a boss
So I fronting on niggas when I’m backing off
Uh, what up Cole, show time
Let these niggas know
Adjust ya Rollies on these muthaf-cking hoes
Whenever you ready, go!
i hope u dont think that those lines were ill…….shits garbage….stop rappn bout watches…..or money…..pls….we know he is rich….so the f what…..we made him now everything he says is hot…..gtfoh……quit….let ye,sigel and them get on damn
I HOPE this is the only mediocre song on the album……cant get enough is fire and im glad work out is a bonus that was wack….even tho its actually becoming a hit lol should be a good album even evidence had a meddiocre track so far i didnt like the aesop rock shit
Listened to it twice…This track ain’t for Cole, He needs those beats that really get you head knokin. Its cool that he want to produce most of the songs on his album and all but He’s not great (imo) as a producer. I know the ROC got Just Blaze and Kanye on lock. I wish he would of tapped Blaze and YE for these tracks:
Self Made-Maybach Music
Mac Miller- All around the world
Eminem- Session 1
Saigon-The entire greatest story ever told album(just blaze)
Kanye-…any beat
Just Blaze..exhibit d through z
Basically the album is HURTING production wise
WOW!!!! This is what the hell I’ve been waiting for?????!!!!! This is some bullshit!!!! This is almost as disappointing when I got amped up for the Lupe/Jay Z pressure joint and it was doo doo…man, I’m kind of bummed out…
I agree with your first sentence but…. really now Pressure was one of the best songs on that album by far and by far the best lyrical songs of that year. Monster verses from both of them..I don’t get it
this lame sounds like flo rida with jay-z. pathetic. i feel bad for you kids that think this geek is something special. techno dance beat, with a guitar breakdown.
HAHAHAHAHA
jay-z gave him a throwaway. NO STAR QUALITY. ZERO. who is j. cole? a boring geek rapper. 2011 shit.
@M.U y u hating so hard for. If u don’t like it its koo but to vote 7 times to bring the rating down. Thats on some hating $hit..its a decent track, their flows are on point. U hated before you played it but I already forgave ya .. Cole world still gonna be the best album of the year
I didn’t skim through the track,I actually listened to the song all the way through you dumb fuck…
I still say it’s garbage but for all you people out there that’s mad so what!
So I can’t give an honest opinion…
I can rate this song as many times as I want GTFOH!
ya’ll weezy groupies hear that shit…. when jigga goes in on weezy it’s game over… good track… some peeps are slow no disrespect…. this will grow on u… i spot a good track easily… this is fire… give this a vid… with proper promo j cole sell 300000 first week easily
Hey might go 150,000 max hes first week because of the old fans butnext week 19,000 u m Iust understand this dude is not gaining any new stans foreal shit is garbage and he gotta lotta hits on this song today because all the hype I bet u not even half of the.people that push play on hes song gomna cop it this song is trash
How da hell this song is rated so high ot should b a flat 2.00 not a 3.46 I will give it 1 star because of jay z the beat is wack and it sounds like he tryna jack drakes swAgg with the hook not original I hope cole reads hiphopdx matter of fack I no he does a hommie u seem cool as a person u are talented but I got too b the first to break it too u ur album is a first class flop and I had some faith in u too dude I think u are capable but some one is learning u wrong playa
if you think j cole is a sell out go to uk amazon and they put the albums snippet and come back and say he sold out haha nigga that shit sounds raw af got some soulful beats and you can here he is hungry by some lines that pass by. couldnt resist still buying the album
#classic
It’s not a horrible song, Its not a great song. People that are really hating are saying it sucks and the dickriders say its 5 stars. Why is Hip Hop like this? Beat is different not unique(WTT), lyrically decent from J cole and once again Jay-z kills a nigga on his own shit(he had some classic bars on that shit) It equals out to be a decent/ok beat. What I can’t stand about fans is they don’t rate music properly anymore. And ohhh lawd! now they saying it will grow on you. People don’t find that wack as hell? Just because it’s a rapper you like people just automatically love his music like you afraid to judge it. Ya’ll the one’s makin this dude’s money and this is a 5star song to you. J cole fans sounding like Lil wayne fans right now i swear. And I think Cole is dope overall.
Huge J. Cole fan and i don’t don’t think this is 5 stars its Not Bad but its really not that Good neither… I Would give 2.5 stars i understand Fans wanna defend him but some of Ya is saying 5 stars when they probably not feeling it neither he has plenty of Great songs it’s ok to dislike one
I’m a big J.Cole fan, but this shit is weak!! Fuck all this patting him on the back shit his stans be doing. Cole’s flow on this is awkward as hell! Jay effortlessly bodied him on this. The chorus is just plain awful.
Mr. Nice Watch
Who dat
Workout
Can’t Get Enough
That’s 4 songs off the album already i can barely mess with. They all range from mediocre to good (Who Dat). None are special. None of them is touching any of the material from the Come Up or Warm Up. Hopefully the rest of the album is straight heaters, but I won’t hold my breath.
The only reason I gave this 5 stars is cuz there’s no 4.5 lol and u gotta take off .5 for Cole’s beat selection. I like his bars tho and Hov fucked this yawn up something crazy! The first few bars are tricked the hell out! I like how u kill it with the Maybach talk from da Otis video…The sad part is that 75% of the ppl who listen won’t fully understand Jay’s verse!
Hov had some crazy word play in the first few bars. Tying in football references with watch references to stay on point with the theme of the track? Hov is takin’em back to school.
If you’re not digging this, you got shitty speakers. Bump this on a decent sound system and you’ll change your mind. This track doesn’t define J.Cole. He chose to use Hov on his “I’m better than you” track on the album, which makes sense. You can’t hate on Cole, he’s multitalented and always improving. Cole World no nice guy.
Worse song ever, soldier boy is better than this trash honestly. What happened J cole. Sell out pop rapper get dropped from the ROC. Flow is horrible and lyrics are of those of a five year old child.
Confirmation Bias – a tendency to favor information that confirms their preconceptions or hypotheses regardless of whether the information is true.As a result, gather information selectively, and interpret it in a biased way. The biases appear for emotionally significant issues and for established beliefs.
I like cole but I listened to this with an open mind. No bias. Definitely not “fire”. Its average at best. “fire” just seems like some shit to say when dont know how to compliment a song with real criticism
You have to not like lyrical talent to not like this song. I don’t particularly like the beat but the word play is incredible. Jay is a monster, listen to hisi verse 10 times and come back to re-rate 5/5.
j.cole fans are not constructive. theu say shit is classic after on listen without giving any real reason why. then when the same song gets cut from the album they say it was wack in the first place. no constructiveness, just dickriding yes men
These 4 cats are the dopest to me right now…
1. Jay Z (complex lyrics, infinite replay value, voice, ride the beat like water, swag)
2. Drake (ride the beat crazy with the perfect change ups into the dopest hooks. Best ride out music.)
3. J Cole (complex wordplay, high replay value)
4. Joe Buddens (Mood Music 4 highly underrated. Complex lyrics and delivery. Most passion in his voice.)
Nice song, expected more from this collab tbh. Nice verse by Jay but I dont understand why he has to say N*gga so much, if it gets played on the radio his whole verse is gonna be censored :S.. And I think this song is made for the radio, not meant as a classic hiphopsong I think. 4 stars.
Jay gives out a great verse but what the fuck are you doing j cole? Most anticipated album and every song i’v heard from it has been average and you just got molested by Jay z on this track. Sad day in hip hop if Wayne puts out a better album than j cole.
I knew J. Cole was sitting around with his fingers crossed, praying he could get a Jay-Z track for his first release. What a chump! Can’t stand on his own two, depending on J?! Lame! Now I know his album will be trash & he’s getting dropped this year!
This is the guy yall claim is the next great? “I’m rappin’ like it Christmas Eve…” (????) Who HASN’T come up with that line yet???? This dude is the most overrated artist EVER. I’ll stick w/ Lupe, Talib, Andre 3K, etc…
Because you weren’t clamoring for Lupe ‘selling out’ this year, too. Bitch please. You only like the underground artists, or supposed ones, because it makes you unique. What are you, a hipster? It’s good music, just accept it.
Its too bad that so many hip-hop fans cant be open to other kinds of music, I’m not gonna lie this isnt what I expected but its still hot and I think it will go really well in the context of the rest of the album.
People just love hating on something they’re not used to. This track reminds me of “Niggas In Paris” from Watch the Throne (especially when that chorus & guitar riff kicks in).
great SINGLE. Get off your asses and hit a club sometime.. take a ride in the whip and bump this shit. Enjoy life. Dont sit on blogs all day shitting on everything that your lame ass cant relate to.
if this was a Wayne song ? Excuse me, Wayne dropped some diarrhea not too long ago called the carter 4.
Cant Get Enough>Mr Nice Watch>Work Out >>>>>>>> Carter 4>>>>>>> How to Love
For a banger, Mr Nice Watch is great. Otherwise, Hov wouldnt have literally JUMPED on it.
And yea im a Cole fan, im inclined to like his songs and support him, but thats cuz I know he has deeper, classic songs on his album. Listen to the snippets of Cole World and stfu.
I get the whole “No more Mr. Nice guy, Hello Mr. Nice Watch”, but fucking with Jay you expect something more. I’m mean, if I were Cole I would have shot for a more introspective Jay or something more original and more lyrical, but instead we got baller shit… I know Cole is more original than this. The beat had potential with the change ups from a futuristic club sound to a piano/synth guitar ballad but still it fell flat. Maybe it’s the drums I’m not feeling, either way it needed something else or something was just missing… I expected more all around. I guess I wont be getting my hopes ups for Cole’s album…
I liked it. I understand why people don’t like it/are disappointed, but I don’t expect anything from collaborations; I just listen to see if it’s something I can jam to.
this is actually one of the weakest tracks on the lp, i just listened to all the snippets on amazon, sideline story sounds like a mixtape track (which is a very good thing if you listened to coles mixtapes) gods gift and rise and shine sound sik aswell..
theres a track missing tho, forgot what its called but it was on the tracklist when cole released it…..unless hes bringin it out for the last any given sunday, fuuk nose
This song is really a 2, but I gave it a 3 based on the originality of the track. Dude has good lyrics, but his delivery is suspect as hell. Drake has NOTHING to worry about with this dude……
AS I said before…get ready for an EPIC FLOP for J. Cole.
Lupe used a 10th of his potential on LASERS and his verses SHITTED on the rap game, the music was whack, yeah, but the lyrics were still there. Food & Liquor = best album of the last decade by far.
Food & Liquor = best album of the last decade by far hahahahahahahahahah no
it was a sik album, i stil listen to it now, but its no wer nea the best fukin album of the last 10 years, chamber music was 15x better than any lupe album. fukin 8 diagrams was better than lasers and thats my least favourite wu album
im sorry but lupe isnt and never will be the best rapper alive, he has one good album, his second was half decent, and lasers….WELL WELL WELL
food & liquor is one of the best albums last decade, what’s better maybe common’s be, or little brother’s minstrel show, nothing really compares as far as critical acclaim though, and lupe is abn all-time great how can he be compared to cole before dudes dropped an album yet, their mixtape game is even though.
@LMAO You must be an idiot that doesn’t go to school. His lyrics must have went over your head. This goes for most of the people on this site. J. Cole definitely didn’t do his thing on this though. Oh well, shit happens. LMAO at you.
j.cole is BORING. this nigga never bagged hoes, never knocked niggas out, he was never fly. and he’s not a dope rapper. dope rappers have quotables. a unique voice. a signature flow. like jay-z.
this beat SUCKS. j.cole SUCKS. he will FLOP. and jay-z will distance himself, more than he already has. i can’t get over how corny this beat is. and these little niggas think it’s a HEATER. electric crap. no soul. j.cole rapping and rapping i didn’t catch one quotable, one interesting bar.
jay-z signed the most vanilla nigga of all time. jay-z has so much power, he can get geeks excited about a mediocre, no personality, no skill, nigga like j. cole.
just drop the album and flop already, nigga had a verse on the blueprint 3 and still hasn’t dropped. he’s not ready, he’ll never be ready. son is trash.
wondering if he’s listening as well, thing song it deco, pretty hot. u think cole’s care about your hating, if he flops he graduated with honors from st. johns bro. again if he flops he still has a career as a producer as he produces almost 95% of his own tracks yall niggas sound very uninformed
i listen. i listen enough to know memphis bleek is a superior emcee to j.cole, in just about every category. memphis bleek has more personality. more charisma. a hotter flow. and he could make flossing songs without sounding like a nerd that makes flossing songs to get a release date.
i’m not saying memphis bleek is the holy grail. but he’s better than j.cole. the same geeks gassing j.cole would shit on bleek.
jay is a powerful man. he has the hip hop world waiting on a everyday, geek niggas, long delayed debut album.
i could not agree more, you basically took the words right out of my mouth. j cole is pretty wack, he has no swag he was basically a nerd in hs and the dudes ugly i mean have you seen his unibrow?? im sorry im not trying to be judgmental but this is hiphop and there is more to it than just being able to out words together
either stand behind the new era of rap like cole, kendrick lamar, krit etc etc or do something about it, if you don’t like it, your draggin hiphop down, who likes lil wayne?
this guy works his ass off for real good music in the game and you niggas hate and criticize every little thing, bet y’all lovin lil wayne right now huh? you are the ones killing hiphop not the artists.
rep something real like cole and maybe oneday a mind will be inspired by him to create something even realer that you might like, what you think will amount from a lil wayne fan?
At first I gave this a 1/5, but after giving it another chance I’ll bump it up to 2.5/5. This is a club record so I understand that Cole doesn’t need to be on some deep shit. People are saying that this is similar to ‘Niggas in Paris’ and that song worked because Jay-Z had a cold ass flow on that joint, and Jay comes correct on this track too. Cole’s flow is lacking, he only sounds decent on the hook.
this shits hot you know his cd is gonna be full of those classic boom bap beats like on lights please and lost ones but then theres gonna be songs for everyone like this work out and can’t get enough and for what he’s got for commerical tracks he’s doin it right this it what will seperate him from just another undergroundish dude with nice classic beats and songs like this will make people realize who would never actually give him a chance how good he is and will spread his popularity. good job cole this cd is a first day purchase for me
these new rappers think screaming lyrics, struggling to project, is killing it live. these new niggas CANNOT perform live. no connection to the crowd, slam dancing, screaming, sounding like shit. drake rolling his eyes, holding his hands like a gay, as his sung hook plays over the system off a CD.
the talent level isn’t there. notice how j.cole doesn’t know how he wants to rap. then jay-z comes and sounds like jay-z. jay saved this pathetic track thats been hyped and gassed since cole got signed. a let down. like cole himself.
is j.cole an everyday man? or is he a baller with expensive taste as this song would indicate? he’s neither. he’s whatever sells. this nigga is desperate. doesn’t matter. he will never pop, because there’s nothing to latch on to. girls don’t wanna fuck him. niggas don’t wanna be him. only geeky internet rap fans like cole. young internet geeks like geek rappers.
beanie sigel >>>> j cole
freeway >>> j cole
young chris >>> j cole
if young chris got this kinda push, yall wouldn’t even argue. jay keeps him in the dark. overhyped, overrated, bland rapper.
Everybody thinks their a damn critic and really gets a kick out of spending time dissing songs via a comment thinking your opinion even matters. Just listen, enjoy music for what it is. & if you don’t, change the station.
J. cole career is gonna mirror jay-z on niggas not gonna respect cole world like they didnt respect reasonable doubt when it first came out so when he drop albums non stop and mark your favorite rapper name out and and put his on top dont be mad. If you say he cant spit go listen to “lost ones” and then tell me what new rapper besides lupe is fucking with him break down lyrics like jay said and go bar for bar and tell me who touching him
All of the lights is on J cole. People expect a CLASSIC J cole album(fans been saying it for one mad long now). Meaning, he can’t come with anything wack. So far iv’e heard like 3 weak songs that’s gonna be one. I don’t think one or a few songs is gonna ruin his career, but he better come correct next time cus its lookin to me at least that its gonna be a mediocre album. Look at what that did to Lil Wayne and Lupe. Ain’t no time for weak shit homie especially when there are so many wack rappers out and you’re projected to be one of the best. IMO he needs to stop producing so much its almost almost arrogant to me. So many producers out there that coulda contributed more…is he tryna save money or something???!!
This song is ill..watf the haters tlkin about??? its not the most lyrical cole cud go but its single material..work out out was single material..cant get enough was single material, it was just for the ladies. this record is for the streets! stop hating already!!!
It’s SO EASY to hate on things. People find the most pathetic excuses. Is this song THAT awful? Fuck no. Is it a god damn classic song? NO!!! Is it listenable? Yep.
you know what i think we were expecting either to much or so much from Cole,cause after listening to this,its really not that bad,someone posted a comment on youtube saying “This track will grow on you”
this tunes sick but not really a kinda beat that Cole would normally be on but it will grow alot on people.i just hope no more of the album gets leaked #ColeWorld
Check it out if u luv music u a fan of music in lyrics then u would no that this is a good song real shit when he spit on the hook see the problem is motherfuckers dont listen to real music no more all motherfuckers wanta hear dez dayz is dat south shit in that aint the only type of music music come from the essence of metaforsin raw lyrics it aint about party party cars ice in bs ya dig cole is the come up much respect 2 da kid
Yesterday some people got mad at me about my comments but I could care less,I’ve heard other songs from J-Cole & I gave them great reviews but I still say that this songs first impression was trash IMO.
Now I listened to the snippet CD & I say that this is the weakest track on the album,I don’t just skim thru the music,I listened to the track ten times str8..
I still say that J-Cole is a premiere artist in the industry however this song is not what I expected..
I thought that These two had better chemistry together…
I can’t knock anybody’s opinion but don’t knock mine…
Every time I listen to this song on this page I have the option to rate it..
IF YOU DON’T LIKE MY OPINION THEN SO BE IT…
#IDON’TCARE /:-(
It’s a new sound thats all ,. not your traditional hip hop track, no loop , no RnB hook,. its somethign different thats all, .i enjoy it and i love the build up to the end. Thats what its supposed to be about,. if you look at all classic there are a few experimental trax,
I actually listen to the music before I give my opinion kin-folk..
I felt disappointed when I heard this track…
The first 30 seconds is the make or break point on any record so I just spoke my mind fa sho..
I see what you’re saying but the beat it self isn’t up to par,It lacked alot of depth from an instrumental stand point plus the vocal deliverer was boring to say the least,this track sounds very rushed and lukewarm but to each is own fa sho..
The second verse is cool but the beat is trash..
This is JAY-Z & J. COLE,
“COME ON PEOPLE”?
I’M SORRY BUT I EXPECTED MUCH BETTER,LYRICS ARE GOOD BUT WHEN IT’S SO MUCH ON THE LINE WHY PLAY WITH THIS SHIT..
Outta all the producers in the world this is the best beat these two could dig up,for an album at that,this is unacceptable..
They could’ve went to soundclick and got a better beat then this,I make beats & rap too but if I know that my beats are not up to standards then why try to fool myself…
I’ll fall back on this thread for a minute,
I ‘m about to read some of these comments I’ll be back…
couldnt have said it better myself. most of the “hate” is coming from cole fans who are dissapointed and expected real hip hop shit, even coles lyrics are weak. I mean drake had a more hip hop song with jay than cole does.
hmmmm just logged on… reading these comments, I must say, J.Cole’s fans aren’t as mature as once thought they were. It seems anytime someone expresses that they dislike the song, his fans bring up the term “Hater” much like the fan base of other average rappers. Ive even seen people give constructive criticism and J.Cole fans still use the hater cop out. Very sad.
the album sounds great. yes you have this one, work out, cant get enough and in the morning as “mainstream” but the rest sounds really great. this song is average to be honest cole needs to rap he couldn’t keep up with the beat
can’t get enough is the perfect mix of being lyrical and appealing to the mainstream. work out is not great lyrically but thats bc it’s not supposed to be. the sample is great, it’s catchy and beat thumps. in the morning has some clever lines, mainstream appeal, and anthem for the ladies.
it’s all good…cole knows what he’s doing. Gotta please the label. Mr. Nice Watch seems like the weakest track on the album, but it’s still not a bad track…it’s just different sounding and people aren’t used to it.
im a j. cole fan and this is weak dont lie to yourself i was losing faith in his album because i heard the singles he released and understood why he did but i listened to the snippets and boy did he changed my mind about his album. sounds promising
probably one of coles worst rating ive seen. the songs cool, not great but a banger. but ima still buy the album cuz i know about 6 tracks are commercial and the rest are gonna be straight CRACK! like cole said the worlds all about having a balance.. Cole World!!
SMH at people expecting Cole to only rap about the struggle and pain. That shit would get old real fuggin quick. Cole made it big and is showing off, big fuckin deal. he’s happy. u haters are maddddd lol
Word..shut up kid. You act like there’s nothing between rapping about the struggle and rapping about a fuckin’ watch. That’s the problem, rappers are scared to walk that middle ground that every day people walk, that’s why rap isn’t music for the people anymore. It’s music for dumb young shallow fucks that justify everything by calling people ‘haters’.
Its not a bad song its not a great song its a song that can grow on people to be a good song cole is a great up in coming rapper I actually think that the sound is not that bad could be better but I think people look for that some everyday sound that the industry keep bringing.In music is not just about that its about being versatile in abstract hip hop is a form of art not copycat do what the next artist is doing so I give this a 4 real talk from a artist 2 a artist point of view. If it was a more upbeat song everybody be on it in I dont agree on that but that howI see it when I look at comments of like lil wayne in other people songs people seem to cater to that so it is what it is. Its a good look for him I believe niggaz already no he can spit in put together a good song while now the question remains can he make a hot classic album not a ight album classic u can play 4 years to come shoutout 2 cole its cool 4 what it is
Hip Hop is supposed to be the voice of the struggle,the pulse of the streets. Hip hop music lets you know no matter how hard it gets or how much you feel like giving up,at least you not the only one. Its that grit,that laughin with you one minute then slappin the shit out you the next moment for coming out your mouth wrong shit. Its ghetto life,its underdog life,its that yeah I aint got shit now but believe I aint stopping til I get it shit. Hip hop has been a brother,a father,a teacher,a inspiration,a comedian,a counselor,a therapist and a motivator for me. Its nothing like really good hip hop music. I’m talking bout when a MC is rhyming not giving a fuck if its played on radio or if this song he spitting on has the latest trendy sound in the production or even if anybody outside of his world enjoys it, He just had to capture this particular moment on record. Raw honesty combined with beats that make you completly forget about where you are and what you doing combined with unique individual talent, thats the hip hop I listen to and need,not this bullshit he sound like him and they both talking bout how paid they are on their FIRST album, and all the beats got new jack swing synths and weird noises and shit, and the nigga on the hook part is the only memorable moment but not really because that same nigga on everybody hook. Big went from being not able to buy pampers for his daughter on his first album to showing how all the hard work and honesty paid off on his second album because he had blown up by then,but you took the journey with him. If you rich before you started rhyming and thats your life cool,but talk about in a fresh skillful way,spit that shit like only you can,dont re-use the same ol lines and flows. Niggas used to hate to sound or act like another nigga,but now its cool to copy? I want the raw to come back,you aint working hard in the studio if every song you do is speaking on the same shit,how fucking hard is that. If you love that raw shit and you want to hear something fresh check me out,my name is Classic The Legend I rep the true life struggle,the gotta make something happen by any means ppl is who I rep,the ppl who think “yeah,you may have more cash than me right now,but when it come to this hip hop shit,you aint even on my planet” check out my latest mixtape “Hard Life Manual” free download here: classicthelegend.bandcamp.com
I’m not talking about j.cole btw,because he reps his truth to the fullest and is one of the best right now,I’m speaking on alllll the other bullshit. “Hard Life Manual” classicthelegend.bandcamp.com
j.cole might be the plainest, most vanilla, average rapper, to get popular, OF ALL TIME!
the ONLY reason j.cole has ANY fans? JAY-Z.
the ONLY reason this song is getting so much attention? JAY-Z.
he’s garbage live. no personality. no signature sound. boring flow. weak voice. cheesy producer. weak beats.
if hes the future, YALL ARE FUCKED!
hes not good at anything. hes good at getting a whole lot of attention for who he knows. this song sucks. if you like it. you like the electro dance movement hip hop embraced after losing its soul.
I thought I was the only one who thought that about him. I don’t wanna sound like a hater but he is very average sounding. I been saying this about him since the beginning. He needs to get some flavor in his voice and also try to work on his songwriting. Or atleast get him a good studio crew like Game. I always wondered how game’s hooks stayed decent after leaving 50 cent. I don’t think I will buy this album it sounds boring to me.
listen to to his mixtapes a few times before u say hes not that good. his album is definitley gonna be worth buying. im sure this is not his best song on the album. 3/5
This is pretty whack compared to a lot ish I listen too like elzhi, diabolic, tonedeff, percee-p, black thought, nas, juice, pharaohe monch, one be lo, masta ace, slaughterhouse, 96-03 (especially 97-2000) Em, big l, pun, black star, common, 96-2000 outkast, Louis logic, wu, apathy, 96-03 reasonable doubt to black album jay, chino xl, PAC, big, prime ice cube/redman/canibus, kool g rap, rakim, tribe, de la, blu, gangstar, PAC, big, az, krs, atmosphere, early JMT, phonte, copywrite, jay electronica, fashawn, rass kass, j live, low-key, immortal tech on rev vol 2, Sean price, skyzoo, reef the lost cauze, chief kamachi, gift of gab, mf doom, guilty Simpson, Jean grae, cunninlynguists, lupe @ his best, invincible, BDkane, mid 90s bone thugs, brother Ali, blueprint, rhyme asylum…. Could go on for awhile. I agree j Cole is better than a lot of the newer emcees that make it onto the radio post 04, but that doesn’t mean he’s anything special. There are a ton of amazing slept on super duper emcees than most ppl have never heard of that would kill him in the mic booth. Cole @ his best can be solid but again a lot of those ppl I mentioned are much better.
These lists of underground rappers (that are dope) don’t get you respect, seriously, this is nothing else than ”Look how many unknown MC’s I can name, I have knowledge and you retarded mainstrem fan not”.
All these so-called great new artists that you all constantly ride and overrate are corny man…this shit isn’t even hip-hop, it’s some bubble gum ass dub-step bullshit. It’s got all the makings of a trendy new song. The singing on the hook, the filtering of the voice, the electro-synthesizers and shit…all you niggas that are on the bandwagon of these new dudes, Cole, Drake, Kendrick Lamar, etc. You’re all gonna be frontin’ in 5 years like you were never a big fan of these niggas.
Hip-Hop consists of creativity and a certain element that you know when you hear. It doesn’t have to be conventional boom-bap shit. Bone Thugs are Hip-Hop for example, and it’s unlike any other kind of Hip-Hop. This is some cookie-cutter, gussied up, electro-synthetic, studio special effect heavy trash. It’s like, you can buy a burrito from Taco Bell and call it a burrito, but when you eat a real burrito from a actual taco stand in mexico it’s not the same. This shit right here is Taco Bell.
And listen, I love Jay-Z, I think he’s one of the dopest MCs in history. I even think J. Cole has the potential to be a really dope MC but as he stands right now he’s no different than 100 other guys who have talent but don’t have IT. All these new rappers have this certain psuedo-hip-hop, private school-raised, semi-suburban feel to it. It’s almost like a fraternity of young cocky ass rappers that are laughing their way to the bank while talking down to their listeners. It’s not REALLY Hip-Hop. I have yet to hear ONE person in a actual Hip-Hop setting listening or even mentioning J. Cole. I hear about J. Cole from the suburban dudes that learned about Hip-Hop from TV and the internet.
What the hell is a Hip Hop setting? Hip Hop is a culture that spreads far beyond your little block, street or neighborhood you reside in. Kendrick Lamar and J Cole are two of the few new artist that other artist like Nas, Jay, Andre 3000, Snoop, Jada Kiss and so on have given lots of respect to. J Cole is talented and makes great music. I understand you might not like and there is nothing wrong with that but when you do not like it because it falls out of the realm of what YOU think Hip Hop should be, then there is a problem. I continue to say it over and over again, the people in that claim to Love Hip Hop hold it to such predictable standards that soon the genre will loose any edge that it has over other music. Anything that sounds different does not suck it just means it is not for you…there is a distinct difference.
This was pretty Good…Nice Beat, Nice Concept, Even flow and decent verses…The appearance from Jay-Z did make me like the song a little more…Overall 4 out of 5
It wasn’t a bad concept…Its basically sayin good bye to the broke life and hello to the good life but I would have rather him and Jay-Z kept it more #Hiphop…But I listen to music with an unbiased ear and this really isn’t as bad as people are making it out to be…Its a little above average overall but it isn’t perfect…
I look at it like dis ever u buy it bootleg it or leave it on the shelf so y hate if u dont like it then u dont like it everybody is entitled to their own opinion.
One song makes you forget everything J. Cole has done? He has made countless songs that are downright classics in my eyes. Plus this song isn’t even bad, he is basically saying time isn’t money because you can’t get that back, so while he’s in the rap game he will make the most of it. Since when has it become a sin to use talent to make money? You gotta be underground and unknown for the rest of your life? Pleaseee….
dis is a perfect radio song, some decent lyrics but its easy & simple..damn Cole dis and Can’t get enough shud’ve been ur two singles (but i know he had to wait on Jay’s verse)…any1 who thinks he sux needs to listen to Friday night lights and the Warm-up and then start talking#ColeWorldfh8ers
Professional reviews from listening session, aka people who know music descrive this as the following, “7. Mr. Nice Watch – Before Cole played “Sideline Story†he told us that the song was going to go straight into this song and when it arrived, the whole place was shaking. Oh my goodness. The bass for this song is ridiculous. The flow was incredible. Cole’s lyricism was straight fire. And Jay-Z? He killed it. This song was so good that all the bloggers yelled out, “PLAY IT AGAIN!â€. J. Cole laughed and said, “I’ll play it again as we leave the club.†I see this song being played at clubs in NYC as his anthem. It might be the hit of the winter! As I write this, it hits me that J. Cole might finally have a super-hit! A hit where the hip-hop world is truly going to recognize who Jermaine Cole really is. Cole also explained how Mark Pitts told him that Jay-Z is always late but always on time.”
This from someone who knows what they’re talkin about. U broke fools. smfh. #ColeWorld
I saw that review as well. Couldn’t agree more! Shit is FIRE! Throw up on yourself HATERRZZZZZZ!!!!!! bahahahahha ya’ll mad COLE runnin shittt!! lmao #WINNING
Mr.Nice Watch is not talking just about a watch beening just nice listen 2 the song. Thats da problem wit alot of listeners people dont listen 2 music no more they just listen 2 the beat lyrics people pay attention to the topic of dicussion song cool cole still did good keep doing ur thingya dig.
LOL WTF is this shit? This sound like some lame dubstep track Kanye and Jay-Z were doing only instead of that gay fish, they put that lame J. Cole nigga instead. Fuck this bullshit, listen to Gucci Mane and Justin Bieber freestyles not this gay shit.
these dick heads sayin we just ride cole’s dick for the hell of it.. probably have no ears or something…en if we did am sure it wud have snapped off by now…COLE WORLD.
not that great
unfortunate cuz i got respect for cole and jigga
i thought this would be great
guess hopes are too high
tryin to appease the masses too much with this trendy dubstep
stick to the real beats man
jigga verse is good though
NOW WE KNOW WHY JAY-Z TOOK SO LONG TO SEND HIS VERSE TO THIS WACK SHIT…JUST LISTEN TO IT? YOU SUPPOSE TO SEND A VERSE TO THIS? J COLE IS NOT BAD BUT THIS IS SHIT.
I dont know why people say he sounds like 2pac or has has style of rapping 2pac… Jcole cant story tell on a track as good as 2pac… Fiction…. I still like Jcole.. 3/5
Sick dubby beat, Jay and Cole deliver a 5 star performance.
The only guys that wont feel this will be the old school heads that cant get to grasp with the fact its 2011 and shit changes.
sounds like a old timbo beat…a scrapped old timbo beat, the album still sounds sik, this is the worst track on the lp, and ther i was thinkin this would be one of the best tracks 2011 lol
Am I the only one who realizes this is a club/radio track???? People have to realize that Cole needs songs like this to be commercially successful. The album can’t be full of I Get Up’s and Simbas if he wants to do well commercially. Would I and the rest of hiphop heads love an album full of I Get Up’s, Lost ones, and Simba type songs-YES!!! We would love it!! But ask yourself one question: Will Cole be able to sell records with an album like that???-NO. Lupe F&L is a Classic with no radio songs-but did it sell well??? No. People Calm Down. The album will have 4 radio songs (mr. nice watch, work out, in the morning, and can’t get enough)the rest of the album will be the Cole from the mixtapes that we love. We have to allow Cole to grow, he can’t stay underground forever. “Either you play the game or watch the game play you, and be that broke muthafucka talkin’ bout I stayed true.” Relax, Cole knows what’s he’s doing, the album will still be fire even with 4 radio songs on it.
Listen to you man…stop being such an apologist. I used to apologize and justify shit that my favorite rappers used to do too, until I realized that the bullshit was insurmountable. It used to be that rappers made the shit THEY wanted to make, ’cause THEY were the artists. Then, it got to a point where you had to have one, maybe two songs that were radio friendly. We’re up to 4 now? And it’s this nigga’s first album? C’mon man…just admit it, these rappers aren’t as dedicated to the ‘art’ as you want them to be. These niggas just want a check. If it was cool to have Barry Manilow singing the hook, they’d have that nigga on every other song. There’s no integrity in Hip-Hop anymore. That doesn’t mean there’s no dope MCs, but even the ones that are dope are looking for their opportunity to go pop, believe me.
I love Cole, I just get my vagina in a twist when people hate on him. I try to sound smart and influence others opinions because I have no life. Disregard me. Jermaine all day.
you niggas must be crazy this shit is dope af…its different and its not supposed to be a real hiphop track cole will have enough of those on the album…this track was a smart move and it opens up to a whole different audience…i fuck with this 5/5 for sure
hop off my dick…this shit is dope if you want his mixtape music go listen to his fuckin mixtapes…shit smh what the fuck do you want him to release stuff that wont get him radio play?? hell no the dude is playin his role smart and you dumb ass hiphop heads need to be more open minded towards the industry and how the shit works
J coles second verse was ill and Jay-Zs verse was filled with entendres (what a surpise) allthough most of it didn’t rhyme. The chorus is eh the beat is good but nothing amazing and Cole’s first verse is bad. Overall its like a 3 maybe 3.5
NIGGA’S LIKE THIS IS WHO EMINEM WAS TALKING ABOUT ON THE SLIM SHADY LP. THEY SAY THEY GONNA KEEP IT REAL WHEN THEY GET IN THE INDUSTRY, AND THEN THEY FLIP AND DROP A WHOLE BUNCH OF POP SONGS.
Man this really dissapointed me…i thought J Cole would bring back that 90’s sound but this is really trash…fuck the lyrical content if the beat is fucked up like this here…
fan of both the artist on this track and when i heard it i was so disapointed this is nowhere near a star is born. cole was beyond weak and he waited all this time for jays verse and that joint was below his ability. come on man what were you too thinking. def know now wont b a classic 2
man im honestly sad about this, after listening to cole for 2 years, so pumped for this dude. hearing all three singles, man. You dont have to do that, everybody thinks this is the formula selling out. WHAT YOU FEAR? failure? this is failure. haha hahaha maybe i went to far.
This could get some spins on the radio, but Cole’s lame chorus slows the tempo of the song down too much to really play in a club. It might work with a better chorus.
Hello Mr.Nice Watch no more Mr.Nice Guy
They say time is money but really its not
If we ever go broke then time is all we got
In u cant make that back you cant make that back so lets ball y we hear like aint no tomorrow aint no next year drink away all of owe problems make it rain wit no care like I make that back fuck it I make that back real shit 4 alot of u fack hip hop heads 4 stars its not the greatest cole release to date but its a good look I spin it
i don’t know why you guys are hating, it’s not like he said “expect a real deep song from me and jay-z”. this is not even the song he intended to have jay-z on. pretty sure the album has all the “deep hip hop songs” you guys are expecting.
REAL SHIT::::: Where is Coles agressiveness, lyrics? after hearing all these sell outs it makes me respect GAME even more. he may be the most aggressive mc right now. Cole has been weak and i maybe one of his first 50,000 fans, been listening to him for a while, dissapointed. where is his nas and pac inspiration, this is to much jay and kanye. to much be yourself. Fuck rocnation.
after listening to cole i used to love the lyrics but most importantly the aggresiveness, as of nas and pac. GAME may be the most aggresiv
Hahaha laughing at the most aggresive I dont care how aggressive game sounds dude sucks at rapping i was one of the few 90k people to buy the album one week later i used it as toilet paper
there’s obviously gonna be pop songs on his album, its called singles, its not even that bad, the beat is a little electronic, but it still bangs. The flow on this song is really good from Cole. Don’t expect the whole album to be like this
Uh oh Cole, you dun dropped 3 songs in a row that not EVERYONE liked. Now, people are saying your album can’t possibly be a classic because those songs on it, including Light’s Please and In the Morning. It’s just impossible for the album to be even good. You’ve hurt a lot of people’s feelings Cole. You should really reconsider dropping this album man. THREE pop song? really? You know how many people you’ve pissed off? People were expecting that Tupac 1994 flow. And EVEN though you’ve done that for 3 mixtapes, this is your DEBUT…you should ONLY be doing Tupac inspired songs, not some shit you FELT like would be fun records to bump in the car–we dont all have good speakers Cole, we cant all bump this in the whip. I know what you trying to do though–make those radio hits, so more people by the album and get surprised by your deep songs, but you dun messed up man. You shouldnt be concerned about the radio and fun records–we need that heartfelt struggle music for all 1 hour and 20 minutes of the disc son. Stop playing with our emotions like this nigga–you makin us think you’re happy or some shit. We want the sad, broke down, hurt feelins Cole–not the rich, swaggin, nice watch Cole–even tho you earned that shit. Nah, fuck that son, your album can’t possibly be classic–i dont care what the other 14 songs I havent heard sound like.
Dude, do you need a tissue? Artist don’t make music for you, they make for themselves. It just happens other people vibe with it. J. Cole probably doesn’t give a single F8(k about what you have to say. #Justsayin. You want 1994 Tupac? Go buy that album, troll. You act like J. Cole stood you up for a date… You are embarrassing..
LMAO. I feel ya son. It’s only 3 radio songs (4 if you count in the morning) on the album. There is still over 10 songs on the album that will mostly likely be deep or emotional, or some simba type shit when cole is really spittin’. Honestly, they not even bad radio songs, but niggas act like Cole can’t have fun. Like he always got to be depressed or emotional on EVERY song or saying crazy metaphors all the time. Theses 3-4 fun songs will balance out the rest of the deeper stuff on the album, so I understand what Cole is doing. Who wants to listen to a whole album of “oh I’m so depressed”, “Life is a struggle”, “I’m a nigga from da Ville”-I don’t. I won’t mind if majority of the album is emotional and deep because that’s the Cole I relate to the most but I don’t want a whole album of that. Yes it would be a great album, but also depressing and sad. These fun songs bring balance to the album. Even if he had a whole album about emotional deep shit, niggas would still complain about how it don’t have fun songs/upbeat songs. Bottom line-Niggas always find something to complain about, no matter what you do.
you might be wisest kid, cole’s not producing shit like he did on the warm up. Now that is classic already, for real that mixtape is by far the best one even if its got some remixes of old joints. but ur just a wiseman
solid 4… better than most of the song on now. once u get past the beat the lyrics and on point and consistent…
btw dubstep is going to start taking over hip hop beats… just a fyi… example WWT “who gon stop me”
i feel u on that. he driftin too far from wut we use to n was lovin. nuthin wrong wit tryn new shit “if its dope”, but half this shit he releasin on this album is weak. his album dont look too promising..that section 80 thoo!!!!!
I didnt like section 80 i think it was above average at best but def leagues ahead of lil wayne and i dont really like cole on this song but jay kills so 3.5
They say time is money, but really it’s not/
If we ever go broke girl, than time is all we got/And you can’t make that back
Cole’s always dropping those words of wisdom. another great track, verses were a bit weaker in content but this wasn’t supposed to be a heavy track, so it’s still good.
In a sense it’s a contradictory statement. Time and money are both an illusion. Time and money are the two most valuable commodities in our society. Time and money both dictate the lives and decisions we make as indentured servants to the capitalist system. And you can make time back, by going within yourself, and gaining true wisdom, you defy time.
jay killed it but cole was good but you cant judge his album from one song its plenty of albums that have songs that get better just beacuse you hear it along with the entire album.this is definitely a good start alot of you nned to look up the defin ition of avg and classic two overused words on the site
I just don’t get the hype around j cole and kendrick Lamar, as a whole they are extreamly average. Atleast kendrick can go hard at points but j cole is just plain overrated. Maybe listening to too much gucci mane and waka flocka flame and mac miller makes these guys look like gods. Hopsin > j cole
hopsin is good but j cole and kendrick lamar have story telling that most rappers cant do now a days and cant relate to their music. sure they have some songs that are below their potential but i do agree hopsin is good though
WE HAVE TO REMEMBER JAY IS 40PLUS, THATS LIKE JORDAN STILL WINNIN CHAMPIONSHIPS WITH THE WIZARDS! THIS DUDE FLOW NEVER GROWS OLD. COLE IS A DOPE PRODUCER.5STARS
Didnt like it sooooo much ystday, but damn im feelin the shit today! i dont care watyu call urself, hiphop head or underground waeva. .u think u know shit but if u hate on this u dont kno shit! Y’all shud kno if this track is d dopest on the album it wont be released now. E’rthin you’v heard so far aint as dope as wat u’v not heard.
Sept27. .#coldworld. .hard titties!
jay got him on this one easy.j cole seems to be dropping off slitly,beats are not as good apart from can get enought so far.remeber snog’s like return of simba,and killer ,so deep lyricaly forreal if i get this ablum and thier are no snog’s like that my feeling’s will be hurt deeply.kendrick came on the seen and droped a decent ablum,drake gona be taking them shots at the roc nation camp{j.cole} if he cant aleast go gold on sales i want my niggas to do well.
Nobody checkn for Nas?? Pretty sure he one of the only artist who still droppn Classic albums && verses!! Untitled and his album with Damian was better than any mainstream artist u can name…
Thank you sir!! Nas collab will be better than Jay!!
rap got gay as soon as white boys started dissing niggas shit. FOR REAL.
there were down ass white boys in the early 90’s. in 2011, just about every rap fan with a computer is a dumb annoying faggot i’d like to punch.
nobody checks for nas? how about nobody checks for j.cole? lets see if anybody cares what j cole is doing 15 years from now. he hasnt even dropped his debut and niggas already hopping off the bandwagon. mediocre fag rapper, with fag rapper fans.
im upset ive heard 5 songs off this album already though ,, i remember when jay released Kingdom come ,. he dropped lost ones,. show me what u got ,. kindom come on the same day,. but really 5 traxx already…smh
Yakov, outta 15 to 16 tracks u just heard 5. Dude u got like 10fresh burners comin ur way.sept 27..savin da best for last. #Coleworld . .turn the heat up!
Can’t get enough – Hot, lights please – hot. lost ones – hot. workout – hot, Mr. nice watch -hot , in the mornign – hot. hmmm,. could be a new classic on the horizon
meh…nothing special. reminds me a lot like “Niggas’ in Parris” by Kanye and Jay…
Wasn’t looking forward to tracks like this on the album but I guess you gotta make a couple tracks to please some people who are all about bumping “that shyt” and money talks.
3/5 I guess. I need tracks like “Unobomber”, “farewell”, “Welcome”, “before im gone”, “enchanted”, “the autograph”, ect.. Cole can’t be wasting trax like this one…spitting nonsense, talkin bout nothing.
shut the fuck up. this song is a celebration that he’s made it big and Jay is passing Cole the torch. Cole’s never been about that flashy shit but he’s allowed to now that he made it. He’ll always have meaningful tracks and he can’t ONLY do those deep tracks….he’s gotta be well rounded…let him celebrate with Hov and quit crying because you arent used to this sound from Cole
Don’t cry for me Argentina, I mobbed the beamer
Took trips abroad, got mobbed in Sardina
In Ibiza I had pizza in the club
Ladies know I’m that guy, they wanna piece of my love
Now they wanna ya boy like Mike in his prime
Billie Jean the goddamn boy ain’t mine
And the Roc break up, had the people losing hope
Can’t lie they had Muhammad Hovi on the ropes
Now I’m back in the go mode, back in the go-go’s
Throwing the diamond up, repping the logo
Rose gold rose flow, I’m okay though
What Don’t kill me makes stronger than before so
Here we go and I’m not domino
When it all falls down, I’m like Kanye’s jaw
I might break but I don’t fold, till I hold the sky in my hand
Yeah that’s my goal
And then I bid you Freddy Adu
Prodigal Child, y’all not ready for the future
Then I disappear in the Bermuda Triangle
My name will be viewed such
Here’s to the man that refused to give up
I want the sky nigga, Chuuuuuuch
To the haters—shut the fuck up. this song is a celebration that he’s made it big and Jay is passing Cole the torch. Cole’s never been about that flashy shit but he’s allowed to now that he made it. He’ll always have meaningful tracks and he can’t ONLY do those deep tracks….he’s gotta be well rounded…let him celebrate with Hov and quit crying because you arent used to this sound from Cole
LOL!! Lasers? Fuck outta here mayne. Lasers got any tracks as dope as Lost Ones, Lights Please? Fuck noooo.
Out Of My Head and Can’t Get Enough are similar tracks…both feature Trey Songz. Big difference is Cole flows his ass off and has dope punchlines and the chorus isn’t corny.
This beat>>>>>Anything on Lasers. and it’s not corny like Lasers mainstream joints.
Not to mention all the other deep tracks we haven’t heard yet.
im a j.cole fan but, fuck your watch. this shit lame cole. you trippin. first album and you got money going to your head already. at least wait til album 2 for some dumb shit like this.
This song isnt really about Cole bragging about the $ he now has. It is sooo much deeper than that. In the chorus he says “It cost me a lot , my chain & my watch.” He is not talking about cost as in $. He is talking about the cost of time & effort he has had to put in/wait for this moment to finally come so he could get his Roc chain. That is why he then says “they say time is money but really its not” bc in this song he is not talking about money he is talking about the time its taken him to get here.
Thats what I like about Cole songs is that you really have to dissect and listen over and over before the real meaning makes sense. Dont think Cole is selling out on us…Cole World still gonna be a crazy ass album!!!
i like deep hiphop, shit you have 2 listen to again and again, but end of the day, music is meant to be fun and give me a messege, or a certain feeling, i dont listen to music thinkin im going to have 2 decipher the fukin track
cole is sik, all his mixtapes were sik and ill be listening to them for a long fukin time, but this track, no……iv listened to all the snippets and this sir, is easily the worst track on the lp
I agree with buddy who said hes talkin about “it cost me alot” as in releasing them mixtapes & getting recognition and gettin to where he is right now.
But nonetheless, this song is dope. Stop hating, this is Cole & Jay’s FIRST collab. They’re bound to have more. No doubt.
I give this song 4/5
The beat is sick. Cole’s rhymes & hook arent bad at all. & Jay-Z’s verse just put the finishing touches on it. Gave it what the beat needed.
Yes sir they did collab on A Star Is Born off the Blueprint 3.
But Jay-Z had 3 verses on that track & Cole had one short verse. But that song is still dope.
09/27 Cole World
I’m just listening to WarmUp,The Come Up, and Friday Night Lights, I got those albums(mixtapes) on repeat on my ipod.
Now I can’t wait for the full album.
Wayne,Gucci,Wacka n all the wack rappers step aside.
Cole’s weakest still better than most wack rap shit out there right now.
This track aint weak, just clean your ears n listen. if you just looking for catchie shit go listen to Lil Wayne.
This shit is tight than a mufk.
Cole World
this must have been recorded b4 the wayne diss… i don’t see how he’s dissing wayne… nothing specifically can be pointed to wayne or cash money… is it cause he says ‘ya’ll’ smh
Cole World
09/27 Thats wsup!
Only for the real hip hop fans, not some wack shit, not some lip kissing rap.
Got get this one for real.
The only new rappers that I listen to J Cole, K Lamar, B.o.B, Frank ocean, Jay Electronica, Wale, Big Sean. Will listen to Drake shit if/when he leaves Cash Honeys.
Am out
Now that the album on the way, and its time to REALLY support “real hip-hip” all yall fake ass “real hiphop” fans abandoning J-cole, typical. Meanwhile Lil Wayne just sold damn near a million. Sold more than Eminem and royce! Sold more than Jay and Kanye. You fans are fucking ridiculous! Fucking fakes!
im hoping the album is a lot better than i think its gonna be, because from what i heard its kinda ehhh. It’s cool, i still support the dude. drop another friday night lights man
Cole doesn’t want to be boxed in as a back pack rapper who only makes serious songs. he branched out on this one. The hate just means hes makin it big. hate on. He’s still the same Cole, you know he gonna have deep joints on his album. Gotta have a wide range of songs (deep, meaningful tracks, radio/club joints, brag rap, songs for the ladies)to be considered a legend like he wants to be. hes on his way
Man i dnt see y all the hating.. the more u play this u realize its dope.. u guys into all that catchy shit go buy a lady gaga CD and get the fuck out a here.. u got listen to really get this song.. #coleworld 9/27
Man this song is maddd far betta thn all the crap im hearing.. im gettn 3 copies of this album. one for my ride, one for my house and one to educate yall nigga that dnt knw talent.. #coleworld..
listen to Show Me Something, See World, Losing My Balance, Can I Live, Farewell, Killers,Pass Me By and Lights Please you uninformed conclusion-jumping fuck.
Cole wasn’t trying to make a hit with this. It says FUCK in the chorus. It’s still going to get lots of play on sirius uncensored radio stations. Cole doesn’t need a top 40 pop hit to hit it big. he’s already made it. dude will debut at numero uno
Seeing people turning their backs on cole just confirming he’s doing GOOD!!! its not like he wont do “it wont be long” “i get up” type of songs. but he gotta expand…as the biggest cole fan i totally understand
yo “it cost me a lot , my chain and my watch” dnt kno if im diggin to deep into it but i think he’s talking about his freedom and shit cuz he sold his freedom for that shit
i dont really like this track, one of his weakest in my opinion, but singing?? cole sings on alot of his tracks, alot of his best track he sings, obviously i prefer his rapping but whatever…..let the nigga sing if he wants 2 sing
Different sound ya’ll aint used to hearing from Cole. Dont get butthurt that it’s not a deep, thought-provoking song with a dark beat. it’s a celebration, bitches! Cole made it BIG!!!
“50 told me to switch my style up, and if they hate, then let em hate and watch the money pile up.”
cole isnt that hott to me.. no way this and that song with the latin beat are two of the hottest songs out right now.. im guessing dx just pushes who they push..
Not hating, but J. Cole will flop. He’s a certified beast lyrically, but his songs ain’t banging. He FINALLY gets Jay to drop a verse and it’s weak as shit.
Ummm… whoever said Jay’s verse is weak, you may need to look at that shit in writing, because it’s going over your heads. But what else should I expect from a generation that thinks everything Wayne touches is gold.
Whether or not his songs are “banging” is a matter of opinion. His rise in just a few short years from an underground artist to a chart-topper speaks for itself. Be prepared for an ear-load of Cole world in 2012 and beyond
I don’t know man. I think I was expecting more. The production is aiight, not the heat I was waiting for. Not that “timeless” sound, at least not for me anyways. Don’t get me wrong, I can fuck with this, but will I listen to this in 2021?
This is the weakest song on Cole’s album, but it’s still a TOP NOTCH HIP HOP DEBUT. The Blueprint is a classic and it has a very weak song on it AKA Jigga That Nigga. This song is weak for Cole but it’s still DOPE and it’s serving its purpose and it’s better than Jigga That Nigga.
I downloaded the album a couple hours ago . That shit is classic , best album of the year easily. Can’t wait for the next album next year. Even though I downloaded it. I’m still going to buy it on tuesday out goes too hard not to have a real copy
this song is hot..what stood out was jay verse though…after you listen to it a couple times it’ll hit you…shit was fire…decent and DIFFERENT track….so much for an artist stepping outta the box and trying a different sound..lyrics are still on point
Honestly nigga….fuck outta here…YMCMB make good kommercial unrealistik ass songs..That Carter 4 was weak and anyone who dont take it in the ass know that…he made some songs nigga kan hum and get high to but lyrically he aint fuckin with The Roc
Cole World > Section 80. Why? How? Kendrick is great at rapping, but cannot make songs like this and Can’t Get Enough. Cole’s ability to make a wider range of songs is why Cole’s album is better. Also, In The Morning showcases Cole’s ability to make mainstream songs that are still clever, catchy and lyrical. Kendrick and Cole both have deep shit. That’s all Kendrick has right now though. Cole has more range.
All yall wayne dick riding faggots needa get off his dick yall might as well sit there with ur mouths open so he can jizz inside em… THAT NIGGA SUCKS! HE FELL OFF! he is the reason rap is as wack as it is right now so FUK OUTTA HERE… n J Cole aint bringin it back but hes ight hes trying only problem is he sound n act just like drake
jay z is a very smart man. i’ve got a lot of respect for that nigga. he dumbed down for his audience to double his dollars. this song is the epitome of his success. this song sounds hot with no thought and you people eat up this slop.
How does Lil wayne and drake get mentioned in every J Cole Song in the comments really even on u Tube everyone is Cole WOrld>>>>Carter 4 shit man everyone will be a gotdamn liar if at one point u didn’t like lil wayne Carter 2, even 50 cent Get rich or die trying, Kanye west college dropout, Ja RUle Pain is love, at one point every one like these niggas once in their life time but then shit gets old and we go on to summone else, even eminem lost it and came back, same with Jay Z Black album was a classic now every one says he sucks
Cole world , the album is sick. Better than anything out there. Can’t wait for tuesday. Regardless of what it sells, its gonna be the best album of the year by far . Yall niggas hated before you played it but I already forgave ya!!!
Cole’s debut is DAMN GOOD. Best mainstream rap album in awhile along with My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy.
He’s getting big so a lot of people are hating with little to back up their outlandish statements. It’s quite amusing.
Cole is only going to keep progressing now that he’s got his feet wet with one album. He’s got the hang of it now.
Also, Kendrick’s Section .80 isn’t better than Cole’s debut. Some songs on Section .80 are chores to listen to. Dude isn’t as well-rounded as Cole. He’s over my head you say???? yeah fucking right. Nice try. What other rapper is putting out deep tracks like Lost Ones, Dollar and a Dream 3, Breakdown, Never Told…and then making catchy but still lyrical hits like Can’t Get Enough, Mr. Nice Watch and In The Morning? Ya’ll can think he’s better because he’s not as mainstream, and it’s cool (and very easy) to hate on those who are bigger and getting more attention.
This would of been a hit in 2004. It’s got a catchy flow but it’s still lyrical. Sadly, radios only play cheese ball repetitive garbage like Roll Up and Black & Yellow.
There’s one reason why people don’t like this song – They don’t understand it. This is a f*cking amazing production and the two rap personalities on this works perfectly.
Listen closer for more than your mundane expectations of some street dude talking shipping crack cocaine.

Eminem Being named King of “Hippie Hop” is like how Elvis ursurped the music and style of African American’s only to be crowned King of Rock and Roll… and no he didn’t deserve it.
Eminem Being named King of Bitch Pop is like how when you look in a history book, the pages documenting contributions of African American’s to this country seem to be conveniently torn out or stuck together.
everyone knows album sales dont mean shit if they do than nelly is 2nd best rapper behind eminem.
here are some guys that are better than eminem album for album
1.nas
2.jay
3.big
5.pac
6.common
7.black thought
8.q-tip
Eminem is not way wacker than anyone on this list…And Eminem is the biggest selling rapper of all time over tupac…..marshall mathers lp sold 1.6 miliion in its first week…I am black btw…..he dusted Jay-z on renegade..he dusted them dude on forever etc etc. I don’t think Em is the best but he deserves respect….no one flowed like he did back in the day..remember when he got on the “dead wrong” beat with biggie..other rappers tried to record verses to it..but they werent as good..back when hi my name is came out what other mainstreamer was flowing like that and guilty conscous forget about it
Not a fan of this dude but he’s not bad, I like K.DOT better. Hands down this song is pretty weak, and the production sucks. I’ll give his album a listen and see what the verdict is.
Eminem being named King of R.I.P Hop reminds me of the book “To Kill A Mockingbird” when black Tom Robinson is falsely convicted of raping a white woman(and later killed) when a white man really did it.
so last week,there was a dude commenting cole’s songs n he was sayin it will be a miracle if cole does 1oo thousand da frst week!?!?! i wanna see what that nigga’s next comments are gna be about now?? comparing cole to big sean n the game like this nigga cole didnt shut the internet down wit friday night lights?? prokections are sayin cole will do 250 thousand the first week n WILL be number 1!!!..BUMM ASS NIGGA!!
Anyone with a list that puts Jay-Z before Biggie and Pac is retarded. Jay NEVER carried Biggie on his back. He continues to steal his lines to this day. Watch the Throne has countless Biggie lyrics. By the way, Pac is ALWAYS #1 and Eminem is whack.
I’m pretty you CAN count how many times he uses a “Biggie” line in WTT. They were High School friends so… yeah if any does it, it should be Jay-Z. #justsayin. You are emotional, if you don’t like the song cool, that has nothing to do with how Jay-Z measures up to Late Greats. smh
i love too see you account for the lines cause its not true and pac is one of the greats but eminem is top 5 as well but if you werent bias you would see and understand that
Saying that Eminem is whack took any validity that MIGHT have been there away from your statement. Eminem is, in fact, one of the most technically gifted rappers of all time, you dumb fucktard.

I fucks with this beat. Yo..all my sneaker heads out there check out my fb. I do the sickest one of a kind hand painted shoes.Check out my mobile uploads..designs starting at 50$.ANY THING U WANT I CAN DO! Get at me..site comin soon
Everyone hates on this, but it’s grown on me. I think it goes over a lot of peoples heads. Should check out complex’s article with Cole explaining each song.
y ppl hating on a up coming artist niggar dropping hot hits and a dope album better than those other niggars that came out from making a song with 3 words !!
LOL!….I think people have the wrong perception about masons. I know tonnes of masons in my own town. They are nice, law abiding people. They also contribute a lot to charities. The masons are a fraternity; a brotherhood. Nothing more people! People need to relax with all the hysteria.
If Cole knew Hov was gonna lay a verse he should have re-written BOTH his verses! A yo Cole, I don’t know what you doing to get Hovs cosign but you better step yo game up!
HEY GUYS IM AN UPCOMING RAPPER I KNOW YALL SEE THIS SHIT ALL THE TIME AND ARE PROLLY LIKE NIGGA PLEASE BUT I WORK HARD AND WOULD APPRECIATE IF YALL CHECKED ME OUT AND I DONT MIND BAD CRITICISM YOUTUBE=lilkaz604
did you just say jay z is the most intelligent with words? wow. he doesn’t even spit anymore. I don’t even know what to call that. you should really start listening to hip hop
Jay, Nas, Kanye, Lupe and Common are the only mainstream artists I listen to. Everything else is straight underground, so your response doesn’t make any sense here.
this sucks mike jones is better
really ????????? this is trash, I cant believe you wasted a Jay verse on this. Im so fucking disappointed.
LMAO … no comment
5 stars
….
Sounds like a wannabe Watch the Throne track
Didnt like it that much from 1st listen,you gotta do better than this was very unoriginal and bland ,thought the beat was too scattered didnt like that either
Terrible, Not The way you wanna feature young hov.
Cole World !!!
Not sure about this one
this fucking garbage. i was think that his album was gonna be dope, but from what i’ve heard thus far i’m not impressed. he had a couple of dope mixtapes. s
There was so much hype over this, and now he have got it? this is trash not what I expected.
yes salaam sounds like one of the tracks off watch the throne i dont like to listen too , we know which ones they are
Booooo, and I fuck with Cole.
Hov always does his thing.
WOW WTF ????????? really i didnt expect this bullshit
the fuck is this, sounds like it should be in the background of a blade movie fight scene…
no wonder hov verse was taking long , he didnt like the fucking track
a bit disappointed to be honest
Off first listen. I give it a 3. Maybe after a few more it might go up.
dope.. chorus has much suspense.. i like it.. ill bump it
Throw this away Cole…
co-sign
Gotta listen to it more than once!
love it
solid, not what i expected 5/5 because of cole, 4/5 for jay
Watch J Cole sell out! Im a huge J Cole fan but I have not been feeling these recent tracks he has been puttin out.
I’m not even surprised. Thanks for the good times Cole but I’ll just stick to your 3 classic mixtapes.
Americans can’t make Dubstep. Its a poor attempt to copy the UK sound like who can’t stop me on WTT.
sHIT IS WACK as fuck…. HAHAHA
1 star
to the plp callign it trash..im no stan or dickrider but is this really considered “trash”? lol cool 3. Hov should have jumped on Gods Gift
-_- kinda dissapointed
Give it more than one listen. The track grows on you after a few listens.
Of course you’re going to like it if you keep listening to it, is going to get stuck in your head. That’s why most idiots think Lil Wayne is nice.
retards this is a statement track
i got a handful of homies who got better records done right now than Cole World.
fuck you
WHY ?
waka better
Waka straight up said “I ain’t got lyrics” Shut your mouth
I love Cole, and I love Jay…but this is a little disappointing.
It is better on the second listen, actually. It’s not going to become my favorite Cole song by any means, but it’s alright.
ALso, London, Dubstep isnt hard to imitate. LMAO, you arent putting your “imprint” on a sidechain function.
How the hell you people hating? He finally got his single. Jay goes OFF on his verse. Shut yall fuckin hatin as this plays on the radio and in the club. And im not even a cole stan
what radio is going to play this ? its not catchy at all.
i dont get all the hating — beat is fire — cole does his thing — he is always a little different with his verses and thats what keeps his shit so damn good
really cole selling out man, was going to buy your album but after lights please, in the morning, work out, cant get enough, and this mr nice watch im going to just buy the few tracks that are good for 99 cents, thanks for the mixtapes no thanks for this selling out shit.
he sold out how? Get out of here with that shit. The song is dope.
wtf are people calling this dubstep?
because it is dubstep ya dumbass.
This is far from Dubstep. If you knew the basics of the sound then you would know not to call it that. This is Hip-Hop pure and simple. So-so track but this beat is snappin’ tho!
i like the chorus but he should have done another verse with he’s rapping not doing the chorus or say a word or two then stop.
beat is pretty good grew on me.
maybe yall dont like the track because you dont have a nice sound system to listen to it with. its fucking nice the beat and how cole raps with the beat like they were one i cant wait until his album drops
dont like the track because its everything cole prmised not to be. saying what the next mainstream rapper is saying which is nothing, nothing at all.
once this hits the radio and all you haters friends start bumping it your gonna be on it to shits dope what their to hate
zzzzzz
eh just remember Cole didn’t ask hov to be on this track he would of preferred him on gods gift but hov chose to be on this track
not hot…….not at all. Nice attempt at commercial, but fail. Beat doesn’t fit him at all. NO!!
who produced this? beat is nice! shit bumps!
Cole himself..teach these mafakers en let wizzy produce a beat….aaaaaaaaaaaaaah nice watch…………….
Since Jay hasn’t had a solid record since The Black Album, this wasn’t going to be great. I was right…
Somebody slap MCMASTERMIND since Black Album. Have you not listened to American Gangster sounds like a Jay Hater. You ran to listen so you can hate. You want his old sh@t buy his old album.
all of ya’ll hating on this are some backpackin faggots….I’m one of the biggest Cole fans on earth but what ya’ll want him to do? Part of being an artist is experimentation. Cole hit it on the head on this…how can u sorry lame ass muthafuckas hate on this shit?!
HAHA @ you cole stans
this is TRASH !!!
yall making weak excuses talking bout “maybe you dont have a good system to jam it in” GTFHO lol
and yall saying its a radio and club hit what about work out wasnt that the “Hit” he needed its was trash thats why its a bonus give up fuck cole world and his lame faggot fans
september 27th buy dat album
1 star damn iam stunned….
cole calls his album a classic. so far we have heard, in the morning, lights please, can’t get enough, work out, mr nice watch, cheer up all attempts at doing what the next guy is doing. thanks for the mixtapes but calling your album a classic, classical albums breath originiality and you homie are selling out.
Cant state if i really luvv dis shit buhh Jayz verse hawt as alwaez
don’t know why Hov jumped on this track
Maslab.YouHaveLanded.Com
Thank You BasedGod
Wow Im giving this a 1 because I expected so much from this but this is wack! When the hell will JCole get some real producers? Wow this album is going to be a fail…SMFH RIP JColes career
yea he built expectations of staying true but shits dissapointing.
hey retard its cole producing the music so when you can find someone thats coming up that does it like him let me know… get educated
definitey grew on me. Beats crazy and j Cole is switching it up. A mans gotta make money right?
Of course you’re going to like it if you keep listening to it, is going to get stuck in your head. That’s why most idiots think Lil Wayne is nice…
listen, j cole has made some of the deepest song and mixtapes in rap and hip hop, he doesnt get much money for those compared to what he will get for song like this that will be popular with “mainstream fans” he’s already said that theres some deep songs he’s probably releasing this as a single (if he is) because the man wants to get money … i dont blame him at all and the songs not bad stop comparing it with his deeper tunes.
cole
Jay-Z & J.Cole Killed This!!!!
Cole World
The watch might be nice but this song ain’t. I hope the rest of the album lives up to the hype.
Oh the wackness
ughhh wtf is this did i just start up arcade game
True
dope fucking track
Not feelin this shit… hopefully he just using this to pull in the mainstream fans and the rest of the album is some good shit.
he already has attempted that, work out, in the morning, lights please, cant get enough. now hes trying again?
Jay-Z snaps on this but im not really feeling it. It might sound better in the car. We’ll see.
I like it alot… It may be that one good single that he needs!! Hov just snapped on this shit BIG TIME!
This sucks! Was J.Cole going for the Kanye/Drake flow?? Is this a throw away Watch the Throne track?
Definitely NOT what I’m looking forward to hearing from him.
Better tighten it up J.Cole! =\
HORRIBLE
Songs aight beat is a 4 chorus is a 1.5 coles verses get a 3 and jay gets a 2.5
Beat hot…flow was all over the place at first but i fucks wit the track. Jay verse was hot. Im a slap the shit outta the jackass that said Black album was last solid record jay came out wit smh…take ya ass to FYE and show u sumthin 4 stars cuz i cant give it 3.5
If you guys haven’t watch the J.Cole interview on this song. J. Cole wanted Jay-Z on a different song titled “God’s Gift”, but Jay didnt want to do it to that song and did a verse with this song instead.
Check the video out here.
that’s a good vid…

cole beat
Cole shits on Drake!!
nice
Hmmmm. was really looking forward to this track, after a few spins not really sure if I’m feelin it or not. Beat is straight, Jay’s verse is solid, but my immediate reaction is with two MC’s with the skill and creativity these dudes have this collab should have been something a bit more memorable. Cole’s verses are ehhh, probably going to grow on me but Jay should have hopped on God’s Gift instead of this iffy, commercial track…not bad just was expecting something on the level of FNL or The Warmup…COLE WORLD
Good song, not great but good.
Great beat. Verses are weak tho tbh.
i felt like they should of came harder. specialy Cole.
4/5
COLE WORLD!
Fiyyaaaahh!! 5 baby
Dope!
pretty good!
this song just shows you how versatile Cole is, along with his producing skills 5/5
wtf is this electronic shit he keeps trying to fucken go for, its trash. cole release music like you been releasing, warm up, come up, friday nights, but this shit is just average
garbagge one star
I was hoping for more of a classic track. But this is dope.
jay z is horrible
its alright lets be honest this isnt a classic or whatever. that being said cole needs to just put a verse where he raps not say 2 words then stop like he does in the song disgusting. still buying the album though.
dope track could’ve been better….
thought it would be more…..hiphop, didnt expect cole to do a techno-ish track, im a big j. cole fan, still cant wait 2 hea the full lp and ill be buyin it, BUT i hate jay-z nowadays, its like he breaths words, i cant really explain it, but it gets on my nervs, i woulda bin more than happy if jay-z wasnt on this lp…..i think this track would sound sik full blast in a club, but the reason why i like cole’s music is cuz i can chil out, bang sum headphones on and chill.
this track gets 3/5
so far…..this album isnt a classic, and i really thought it would be
breath his words… so u tell me u don’t like listening to lyrics, so u like listening to people with soft voices and cute little hooks bitch stfu the guy spits hard fucking bars this nigga has so many diffrent entendres that you prolly too dumb to even recognize the meaning, im not racist but ur prolly a white suburban scrub stop rating people based on stupid shit thats like me saying I don’t like mj because he likes to stick his tongue out during dunks fuckin prick
YOU GUYS NEED TO ADMIT THAT THIS IS NOT A VERY GOOD SONG … ITS OK.
Are yall listening to the same song as me? this shit is HOT!!!! did yall even hear what JAY said…lmao…yall sleep
I havent heard jay on a classic status beat in forever. I never liked rappers rapping on beats like these cuz i feel like a techno dude would do a better job way to easily.
Whosoever wants to see J Cole make it in the Game you shouldn’t hate on a track like this taking nothing away from the track…thats why its called an album it has to be a musically balanced project not a mono tone collection of tracks plus this put him on the radio too..Cole Army lets educate these none believers….aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah nice watch…………….
Cole World but im Hot as shit!!! do that mean im bi-polar?
Failed attempt at commercial rap … 1 star at best.
Wanted more of a classic Hip Hop feel but its dope
Grew on me.
yall tripping if you think the teeny bopper crowd gonna bump this, this is wack as fuck.
the only person to really give J a run for his money on a track thus far has been B.I.G and Emininem. It’s so clear that none of these youngsters, got nothing for him, so clear.
Jay @ 26
“back when we first learned to use rubbers, he never learned, so in turn we’re kidnapping his baby mother.
Wayne @ 28
“talkin bout Baby money, i got your baby money, kidnap your bitch see how much you love your lady money.”
Cole World 9/27
meanwhile im just choppin off doors, put the front on the back cuz im back and forth, put the front on the back of the BACH like a boss cuz im frontin on niggas when im backin off!!!#mandatstough
the drake song featuring jay z is more hip hop than this. That is a sad statement.
ehh cole just rap
i am a HUGE cole fan. WHAT THE FUCK is going on here? This is not the warm up, even friday night lights. this is TWO WORDS and they clearly are SOLD OUT, or at least on the road to it.
mr nice watch? this is supposed to inspire me?
damn it cole. for the VERY FIRST TIME you gotta me contemplating whether i should buy this album anymore.
3/5 – expecting a whole lot better Honest to GOD
T.R.A.S.H
classic ??? Ha!
AM I LYING WHEN I SAY DRAKE’S LIGHT UP >>>> THIS SONG ???
sad day.
haterrrrrrrrrrrrs
hater? im a massive cole fan, iv bin waiting for this album for 2 and abit fukin years…all of his mixtapes wer sik as fuk..
but this track??? 2/5 at best, why people gotta be haters if they dont like a track u like…fukin punk, id kill u me
J.COLE IS A GOOD RAPPER BUT I’M NOT FEELING THIS
Cole is only playin the game to change the game even the cole fans cant get this smh his wwhole album cant be an emotional ride u have to dumb it down sometimes
what u expect fukin with Sean Carter WEST
LOL if this had lil wayne or drake’s name on the title it would have a 1 star rating. Bunch of fucking idiots here. This dude’s horrible
that’s because talent has alot to do with rating…lil’ wayne and drake are kings at marketing their selves tho…but horrible rappers
Like I said in a previous post, J.Cole is talented as hell, BUT he does not have star power and cannot make HITS or commercial friendly songs. Plus he waited so long to drop an album that he built up too much anticipation. Now if its not a close classic its a disappointment and with songs like this he albums looking to be VERY UNDERWHELMING.
ooooooohhhhhhhh…..shuddafuccup!
U MAdd? lol
fireeee
ha ok buddy.
Come on people buy the album. This is the first luke warm song i have heard from the songs on the album. well 2 including work out. but these are songs for the radio. You can tell which songs are for the radio and for the album. Me personally i never listen to the radio songs on albums so it doesnt effect whether the album is hot or not. Its still gon be fire.
leave the radio hits to Wayne and Drake … this isn’t your lane Cole, and it shows…
This is not wack but not hot. Told you all that you are blowing all these new cats out of proportion.
well ………..
ive listened to this track 5 times now and ive came up with the same verdict every time.
Cole World
too bad this leaked…pretty good though.
9/27
it didnt leak, he dropped it on twitter.
Sometimes I fucking hate hip-hop fans. Why the hell does everything have to sound the same, why can the genre of music that most of us Love grow? Why does it have to remain stagnate is sound, to what you think it should be? The song is hot, the lyrics are good and it pushes the envelope.
if this was Wayne or Drake you’d be calling it wack and giving it 1 star … STFU you hypocrite.
Miss me with the negativity. Firstly unlike most of you ignornant dudes who can not create an opinion for yourselves, I judge music based on music, not the artist. Am I a Wayne fan?, not at all but when he makes a good song, I give him credit. I…key word, I, like this song for the reasons stated.
Haha- I sort of agree with @tune.
hott
DOPE
35 PEOPLE GAVE IT A PERFECT 5 LMFAO.
Cole World!
5 is the most popular ranking too, this is a conspiracy lol.
you said the music would inspire us cole.
straight trash, why everyone feel the need to use so imitation techno beats. hip hop is sad
Big fan of Cole and Jay Z but he dropped the ball on this one…BIG TIME! Hook is nice, but the beat is pretty garbage.
If I was J.Cole I would be tight. Jayz gave Drake one of the best verse of his career on light up and he gave a half assed barly a sixteen for J.coles big debut. I would be pisssed
Are you listening to the same verse? I suggest you listen again, the wordplay in Jay’s verse was ill. I guess he needs to dumb it down for you
yea srsly the jay verse pretty much made the song imo.
good shit
This is pretty good…..Gotta appeal to the mainstream to sell records….
This isn’t bad, Jay definitely picked a song Cole didn’t kill on purpose.
this wack a wasted jay-z feat
It’s songs like this that make me worry about the album as a whole…
work out, cant get enough, in the morning, lights please……
WASTE OF A GOO JAY VERSE.
Trash
is this a joke?
j cole is awful.
your sayin hes awful, based on 1 track???
so far, the album is not a classic, work out and this are easily the weakest cole tracks on the lp (even tho work out is a bonus cut)
listen to the come up, the warm up and friday night lights, then tell me j. cole is awful….fukin mug
This sounds like the first version of “Who Gon Stop Me?!” off Watch The Throne. They threw it to Cole… SMH! Cole gon lose all his fans. LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL!!!!! THIS AINT WHAT WE WAITIN FOR J COLE!!!!!!!!!!!!! YO ASS GON BE BACK IN FAYETNAM!!!!! LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL!!!!!!!! AND A DAMN COMET IS COMIN BETWEEN THE EARTH AND THE SUN THE DAY BEFORE YOU DROPPIN YOUR ALBUM!!!!! IT’S OVER MY GUY!! BACK TO THE BLOCK!!! 2 Star
there’s nothing interesting about this song, it’s just all generic shyt. j cole got some clever punchlines but he’s just another fuckin rapper, he ain’t no artist.
this song is pretty decent….both cole and jigga were strait on the track
This is historically bad for a debut Jay-Z collab on your first album …
yea, remember that jay feature on games album with dre. that shit was hip hop this umm cole waht the hell you doing you losing your fans son.
Ant really feeling this, hope the wrest of the album is not like this.
I’ll be honest if it plays in the club, it might get some run. Other than that, Its a corny track that sounds like a throwaway from “Watch The Throne”.
i was thinking the same shit as far as it bein a wtt throw away..jay killed it..cole came decent in his second verse
Nice song isnt a classic but 8/10
SO FAR ALL THE TRACKS RELEASED HAVE BEEN TRASH… WHAT THE HELL MANNN.
this sucks dick #homos
huh? gtfoh!!!! miss me with this bullshit!!!
jay-z is soo shity now give that shit up
JAYZ SUCKS! I MEAN, WTF DID YALL HONESTLY EXPECT OUTTA HIM? LOL
I used to think that but then i heard “Reasonable Doubt, Vol. 2, The Blueprint, The Black Album, and American Gangster” and I realized he’s one of the best. I’ll admit since 2009 he’s fallen off though, but he’s still decent.
oyeaa this song sucks too
And to think people at the listening session wanted to hear this track again, you would’ve at least though it would be alright but damn this was disappointing. What was he thinking 2/5
Lupe had a better Jay-Z collab, Kanye had a better Jay-Z collab, 50 Cent had a better Jay-Z collab, Drake had a better Jay-Z collab … EVEN LIL WAYNE HAD A BETTER FIRST TIME JAY-Z COLLAB.
sad day. you speak the truth my friend, had high expectations for this kid was going to buy his album because he was humble and spit hard real shit, but ill onyl buy single tracks now.
AIGHT, THAT WAS AN OVER REACTION…. JAYS VERSE WAS COOL, COLE KILLED IT, COOL BEAT, BUT A LAME ASS STORY LINE/MEANING TO THE SONG
Jay Z is CLEARLY more advanced than this dude. He was even trying hard. Doesn’t mean Cole is bad but anybody who thinks Cole is better than Jay is buggin’.
Not bad. Surprisingly poppish song coming from Cole. But it could be better but maybe it will grow on me over time.
After hearing this I’m scared. I really hope the album isn’t gonna be like this. J. Cole has way to much talent for it to be put to waste like this. Production is ok but J Cole being the artist and poet that he is, I expected way more. This is a dissappointment. I’ve waited 2-1/2 years for this album. If this isn’t a classic I give up on modern day hip hop
This is some weak shit right here… I’m about to go bump A Star Is Born and try to forget I ever heard this.
Co-sign
one of the worst tracks of the year…definetly the worst j cole track ever
No way. Disgusting was WAY worse than this.
This SHIT IS GARBAGE SON!!!!!!!!!!! get this shit outta here and your “classic” soon to be garbage album outta here son
fire!!!!!!!!!!!!
come on cole your better than this
i just bought tickets to you Cole! Might take them back if this is what you’ll be doing.
SMH, looks like this guy is one hit wonder! this is pure garbage and him having gay-z on it is even worser than i thought it would be. i give this 1/5 rating..this shit is _________ fill the blank hint(wackness)
im trying to like it, but i cant…
jay is falling off hard now
No, you dudes mental capacity is that of 7 year old…maybe you should replay it until the light in your brain goes off.
Jay-Z ice cold flow meets Jay Cole’s ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZzzzzzz flow. Boring!
Cole World!
RELAX GUYS J COLE SAID HE KNOWS WHAT HES DOING HE SAID HES TRYING TO WIN OVER MAINSTREAM AND MAINTAIN REAL HIP-HOP LOYALTY IS THE BEST SUPPORT AN ARTIST CAN RECEIVE
man if you done watching this sorry ass J, Cole come back and watch me some more, if you done watching the throne, come back and watch me for more, if you done watching that Bi-polar mothafucka, come back and watch me for more, if you done watching carter IV, come to me kids.. LUPE The KILLA and Nasty NAS are running this game sucka!! Food & Liquor 2 = classic Life is Good = Classic peace God
What a waste of a beat. Cole should focus on becoming a full time producer and leave the rap game alone. YMCMB got the game on lock. Drake or Wayne wouldve showed you what to do with one of ya beats man
disappointing i was expecting a banger but its alright i guess
nice son
This is cool. Cole sounds a bit like Ye does on Ni**as in Paris. Jay over-powers on the track. Nonetheless, creative song.
i understand what he’s trying to do … but you dont waste a Jay-Z verse on a song like this.
this song wont be remembered 3 months from now.
FIREEEE
They both went hard. The whole electro synthesizer thing does disappoint me but hopefully the rest of the album doesn’t sound like that.
FIREEEE FLAME
what happened to who dat…yo cant cop if your joint sounds like this…I know u wanna get on the radio but nah son….Drake aint doing this Bs and he shining…oh yeah shout out to Gay Z
Lupe one song > j cole sorry ass career..
Lupe’s song Failure > 95% of rappers careers
Lupe worst blunder (lasers) > 75% of clowns out there
Lupe’ Food & Liquor > insert any rap album from 06
Lupe The Cool > Greatest conceptual album ever
so your telling me lupe’s song cant get you out of my head is better than j. cole’s career? so im guessing the come up, warm up and fnl weren’t shit right. listen i like lupe and agree with the other 4 statements but the first one i really doubt it.
I came here expecting to hear a banger, fuck ! da fuck is this ?
WTF IS WRONG WIT EVERYBODY..DIS SONG HARD AS SHIT! MAYBE THE VERSES COULDA BEEN BETTER BUT DAMN..SHIT IS OK 3.9/5
P.s. give Jay his verse back OR let him have the song
major dissapointment..crazy thing is that im sure Cole didnt even want jay to throw a verse in on This track..i think Jay was still in watch the throne mode, and was really diggin this wack ass beat lol… this joint will get radio play, and im still positive this album will be well worth the wait. (tracks like this make it hard to use the word classic, but we’ll see). Oh, and jay actually Killed this track..cole was decent on the second verse. But I think everyone, including Cole were hoping for more of that classic hip hop vibe to come from this first collab, but jay thinking marketing right now.
Word
Jay Z is ill, he said:
Meanwhile I’m just chopping off doors
Put the front on the back cause it’s back and forth,
put the front on the back like the back of a porch,
so I’m frontin’ on niggas when I’m backing up
you completely killed the lines…pls go back and listen to the track before you comment lol
ha as a cole fan, this shit is super corny!!! im done with this guy he aint all that ought to be, just another clown in the game
Pussy u were never a Cole fan to begin with. hate whn yall niggas tlk shit on here. ur gona tell us ur no longer a cole fan cuz of this song? who the fuck cares. Us real cole fans know this dude is the real deal. this song mite be average which jus shows u how good cole is cuz his average is way betta thn most a the shit out. so plzz with all respect buy ur self a britney spears CD one song dnt change ntn #cole world 9/27
This dude is falling off before his album even drop.
FAILURE
jay z has only one verse he uses for every song lol
where are the 808 beats, this beat and song is weak. wtf
you must got computer speakers…the song KNOCKS with full 808 bass!
CHILL OUT GUYS WHATS A COUPLE OF MAINSTREAM SONGS? HES TRYNA GET LEGENDARY STATUS AND MAKE MONEY
This doesn’t even sound like a good club song! He needs to scrap this boring ass song now!
Yawl niggas need a time out
who got these niggas all wound up
sucka I’m 7 30
Yawl niggas know where yawl gone wind up
COLE ! WHAT ARE YOU DOING ? THE INDUSTRY IS LISTENING TO THIS SHIT, NOW EVERYBODY WILL THINK YOUR GARBAGE.
I’m a huge Cole fan. But this song feels like waking up early Christmas morning, and after putting “Classic Collaboration” down on my Xmas list, I came downstairs to find nothing but Coal under the tree.
This is a long way off from what I expected. Doesn’t even come close to “Pressure” off Food N Liqour.
I still have faith in the other 10 songs I haven’t heard though. And I’m still gonna buy the album.
hmm, maybe there is something to the idea that really lyrical rappers can’t make albums. Not only is this song garbage, it sounds like J COle was messing around in his basement when he made it. My guess (and I hope) is, this is an old song that was just put out to extend the buzz. Its a demo.
Jay Cole is still a rookie, yawl need to fall back on the kid. I want him to do well too but you guys are being a little UNFAIR at this point with new artist and the numbers game.
Cole aint no rookie. Certain niggaz just throw off his intentions and focus. He sounds forced on his collabos. I like his solo efforts a lot.
Great!!!
not hip hop.
i thought hip hop was self expression…. go figure.
nice
this is fly, j cole stepped out of his zone on this one. 5stars.
J.COLE DID IT, I WAS EXPECTING J.COLE SOUND BUT HE THREW ME A CURVEBALL! I LIKE IT THO.
after “Workout” and “In the Morning” being announced as album cuts i started to get worried and i said to my self the chances of this being a classic album are slim … now this.
NO MORE CLASSIC, ITS OVER. You could have made another Illmatic, Slim Shady LP or Reasonable Doubt but its waaay too late now. The album so far sounds like some generic mainstream shit.
hahaha are you hearing yourself talk? lmao..no way in hell J Cole would eva make another ILLmatic..Only emcee that is as good as Nas would be Lupe and he made Food & Liqour now thats a classic LP.
this shit is not bad as most of yall say it is …it may not be what you expect from a collab from j cole one of the best up and coming and Jay z one of the all time greats but its sstill a ok song just listen to it a couple mo times
I like, it f*** the haters. #ColeWorld
Technically this nigga has already mastered failure n moved on to the level that comes after failin tho. This nigga has developed his own science when it comes to that shit….its “quantum failure” nahmean. This nigga can fail without even having his album out. The nigga can inception fail his way thru his sorry ass rapping career. Think its a game yo? This nigga takes his failure very fuckin seriously son and brags about it in every song. smh this nigga only one word can summarize his rap careers = #FAIL
damn, you went in lol.
LOL..hahahaha
this shit is wack b. telling it like it is.. and im out on my born day.
lmao you talk/post like 50 Cent.
you guys are being waay to fuckin hard on cole! drake can autotune his shit and sell millions while cole can make a original beat and excellent wordplay and sell nothing? Thats fucked up!
yo it’s getting to the point i can’t even trust/respect the ratings on these songs anymore… this ish is a nice track
Hov absolutely killed it
do you fools listen to music or do you just skim through it????
^ when stanning goes wrong. i think you need to listen to it again, this song is the eptiome of FAIL.
im done talking about this wack nigga, going back to real lyricists like Nas, Lupe, Andre 3000, Talib Kwelli, Mos Def, Black Thought..#kanye shrug
4real.
yall are idiots,so Jay-Z aint a real lyricist??
this sht goes over you stupid niggs heads and so yall call it a fail, just go listen to somethin else instead of hating
go cook wit lil B or somethin
^ hahahahahaha that shit had me rolling lol and yes dude is wack
It’s whack, but rather this shit than the Carter IV, which has one good song, of which he removed his verse. That’s already sold a million records. Shit-Hop is the thing it seems.
what makes you niggas think you know a classic.
Listen to the song first
Cole World: The Sideline Story
9.27.11
I Love It I Will Be Buying This Album
COle World boi
Just because its different that doesnt mean it is not a good song.
Yall niggas need to step outside the box for once
The hook part is cool but the shit is wack as a whole… This dude is fucking overated…..People only feel dude cause he a “safe” lookin light skin nigga. Nothin he put out has justified all the hype. He don’t deserve none of this real talk
Tangoish
eh
It’s not amazing but its different I like it.
FIRE!! COLE WORLD!! COLD LIFE!! COLE BLOODED!!
Fire, that is all
#coleworld no blanket
COLE WORLD! I AM BUYING THIS ONE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
J-Cole took it easy on Jay Z. He should have murked him
example # 2 When stanning goes wrong. Jay Z murked him end of storry.
LOL prime example of when hating goes wrong…this nigga doesnt like the song so he’s living in the comment section so he can attack people who like it
when i dont like a song i dont obsess over it and hate when other people like it
i cant wait to see what hater has to say about my comment cuz i know he’s still in here listening to this song he hates and refreshing the comments like his life depends on it LMAO
lol, in his defense though this is kinda wack, kinda.
ummm no..Lupe got in the game with a classic #lp = Food & Liquor, Game got in the game with hot album. even 50 got in the game with hot album too.. Cole aint rookie, his just wack lets face it. So i dont see yal stans point? his no rookie, he’s a ONE Hit Wonder
what the hell kind of debut album is this ??? every song he’s dropped has been average or wack.
agree cosign 100%..and to those of you who thinks Cole is taking over the game lmao yal niggas fall back..Nasty Nas and Lupe/Black Thought running this game 4real
“Technically this nigga has already mastered failure n moved on to the level that comes after failin tho. This nigga has developed his own science when it comes to that shit….its “quantum failure” nahmean. This nigga can fail without even having his album out. The nigga can inception fail his way thru his sorry ass rapping career. Think its a game yo? This nigga takes his failure very fuckin seriously son and brags about it in every song. smh this nigga only one word can summarize his rap careers = #FAIL”- LMFAO hahaha best post ive seen in a min real talk and dude is nothing special he just wack.
damn hahaha
O_o … hehehehe
I haven’t heard one bad song off of Cole’s upcoming album. This is gonna be good.
Jay destroyed that verse..
Its normal to hate something when its unexpected and different than what you thought it would be. With that said, I really like it. Has an infectious hook and the tempo is crazy. Great lyrics too. The sound is different but if this was on WTT it would be one of the best songs.
dope for what it’s worth. rest of album gonna be fire too
my expectations for the album just took a HUGE nose dive. he’s just another rapper.
J Cole can do WAY better
He can but doesn’t mean this song ain’t hot. I’ve been bumping this all day.
weak as fuck
At this rate Lil Wayne will have a better album in his catalog than J.Cole.
CARTER 2 > COLE WORLD.
true. when lil wayne was j.cole’s age he dropped a better album than what j.cole is about to drop.
ayo this shits wack. at least to me. it’s like all these beats cats are choosing these days are wack. game’s album had wack beats with game name droppin. carter iv had wack beats with lil wayne telling knock knock jokes. and it looks like cole world is gonna be average at best. i’m not losing hope yet. im checkin for the new jay electronica the new elzhi the new nas the new phonte and the fashawn. best album released since august was random axe. even jay and kanye were barely above average. we in a drought for good hip hop and yall desparate mofuckas is drinking the sand
LOl @ knock knock jokes
Yea im sure all those artist u just mention that once they make a radio friendly song you’ll be hating on them to
yall was hyping him up to bring real hip hop back but so far all his joints have been mainstream as fuck.
In The Morning, Workout and THIS, all on one fucking album lol. GTFO.
you’ve obviously never heard his mixtapes you fuckin dickhead
swahggggg
NOTHING SPECIAL…
disappointed :/
how could anyone possibly hate on this track i mean not what i expected but still it sounds like its intended to sound MAINSTREAM!
this is seriously nothing special….at aalll im giving it 2 cause this is some shit
its a good song ill give it a 4 some people act like it was suppose to change the history of rap music talking about they disappointed and the album gonna suck ahah stans

I got a Hublot I call it Tebow
I strap that bitch with a Gator band
Y’all niggas ball half time ya’ll niggas like the gator band
Y’all niggas need a timeout, who got these niggas all wind up
Cocksucka I’m 7.30, y’all know where you’ll niggas gon wind up
No more Mr Nice Guy, hello Mr Nice Watch
Only but a matter of time ‘fore I hit ya’ll niggas with the nice shot
Y’all niggas, better not call the law
Get no blood on my Audemar
Meaning ya’ll better not waste my time
When y’all ready I’ll take you over
Meanwhile I’m just chopping off doors
Put the front on the back cause I’m back and forth
Put the front on the back of the Bach’ like a boss
So I fronting on niggas when I’m backing off
Uh, what up Cole, show time
Let these niggas know
Adjust ya Rollies on these muthaf-cking hoes
Whenever you ready, go!
get no blood on my audemar?!!! Wayne’s a blood my dude. Dont sleep on hov man. He’s considered at goat for a reason. And that maybach line, that shit cray!
lmao that nigga Wayne aint no blood fake ass nigga
Good look Jimmy Capo that got wayne all over it and it’s perfect timing no bad deed goes on noticed spank these fake ass niggas jigga,Hov,Lucky Lefty!
Umm Lucky lefty is not one of Hovs alias, thats what they called DAMON DASH!!!!
@ Springfield’s Finest you are wrong about that.. because Lucky Lefty is one of Jay-Z’s nicknames!! And just proof i got a few bars from “Who Gon’ Stop Me”
“Im winning again Im at the Wynn/ Im at Tables Im gamblin’/ Lucky Lefty I expect a seven/i been through hell im expecting heaven”
NO wonder why Jay took so long to get on it. This isn’t all that.
wow over 300 comments for Cole
Hip-hop fans are watching
“Oh No You Didn’t, way a min, no you didn’t, you disloyal full ass bitch made niggas” Y’all are trippin on how y’all coming at a Cole y’all the reason y real artist get shelved well whack ones get famous. WTF is y’all into these days not one song on this entire site has positive comments like really y’all have become addicted to hatred y’all need to go to rehab to get rid of y’all addiction to spewing out hate. First they love then they hate you. Cole barely on his way to the top and your trying to prevent that this track is a great concept for what he was going for he wasn’t trying to kick knowledge he was just spitting every track aint gonna be on sum 2 Pac Changes type shit where he is spitting about life problems come on man y’all are gonna ruin this guys perception with all these negative comments for the fans J Cole is trying to get that he has yet reached. You no how many people don’t even know who J Cole is who have never heard the warm up or fnl or any of his tracks. So he makes a songs for the radio big deal how much classic songs and versus has he given away for free like i said y’all are a bunch of disloyal motherfuckas on sum real shit man y’all make me sick this nigga is living his dream and y’all trying to stop that quit hating niggas
disappointing.
I’m def feelin Cole in general!
But this is pretty wack in my eyes. Nobody makes a dope track every time though.
A complete waste of a Hov 16 imo…
Why Cole?!?!?!?!? Whyyyyyyyy?!?!??!?!?!?! Damn… Jay-z verse is fuckin ill tho… But damn… so disappointed it hurts!!!
Nothin changed after the 2nd listen either, lol
With all due respect, Lil Wayne is a genius and I love his music, but to be truthful, I’m not feeling his last album at all. I mean Game put out a better effort than he did.
Aint surprized to good
Woah. Shit’s rough.
KIDDY RAP …..SHIT IS TRASH JUST LIKE WORK OUT,,,,,TO MUCH OVA HYPEN THIS DUDE
This is weak, but the rest of the album, excluding In the morning & Workout (which is a bonus anwyay) will be classic cole.
yeah. 7.
Damn this shit is hard.
Feelin this mayyyneee
Mhmm I heard dis. This nigga rough.
No question the kid is nice and no doubt he gets busy- I’m not talking about him but Ali Lafayette Rhea. One Love
Ya’ll niggas need some haterade. Cole World no snuggie nigga.
Ok I take that last coment back. This shit is fire.
Damn. I’m feelin this. I like how the kid switches up styles too
its cool to hate on jay-z now its the thing to do the same with 50 cent and kanye when rappers try to do positive shit like fund raising for kids to go to college you only see a few comments and they mostly say they doing it because they have a album out or one about to drop its funny because most of the comments be personal like you actually know these people outside of music the majority of these rappers have grown up in single parent homes they really had to really hustle up money just to feed there family’s but when they try to give back in a major way they being fake.jay-z can walk through marcy with oprah go chill and be relaxed thats because he always have and alsways will give back to the people.
“50 Cent†Jackson donated $25,000.00 to the “You Can Go To College Committeeâ€. The Queens based nonprofit organization was est@blished in 1996 to ensure a smooth transition from high school to college for students. The program includes college tours in state and an annual black historical college bus tour, PSAT and SAT preparation courses, parents financial aid workshops, paid and non paid internships, scholarships and help finding financial[..]istance programs. In the last 12 years, “The You Can Go To College Committee†has been responsible for over 3000 students enrolled in colleges and universities and more than 1000 graduates all across the country.
Today we gave out 300 turkeys at the Church of God in Christ Jesus of the Apostles Faith located in South Jamaica, in the neighborhood where 50 threw Forever Young Day in September.
Wednesday November 18th G-Unity will be serving food to homeless shelters that will be bused in by the United House of Prayer for All People.
Saturday November 21st G-Unity will be at Holy Trinity handing out 500 turkeys to families in need
jayz has a foundation that sends 50 kids to college each yr full rides
ROCAFELLA HAD NUMEROUS TURKEY DAYS IN MARCY . JAY IS MORE GLOBAL AND WOULD RATHER MUCH HELP THE REAL HOODS IN AFRICA. ROSS HAS SOME !! CALLED BE OUT DAY IN MIAMI EVERY YEAR GIVING KIDS BACK TO SCHOOL MATERIAL. THESE niccaS DON’T NEED AN ALBUM AROUND THE CORNER TO GIVE BACK TO THE COMMUNITY.
i don’t really know what to say about this one…i’m a huge cole and hov fan and i want to love it but…idk. a part of me feel like “friday night lights” was intended to be “cole world: the sideline story”…it wont be long, lost ones, killers, and how high were supposed to be on the album as well. i think cole started getting hella pressure from the label to make a “hit” and he got frustrated and started making songs like “disgusting”, “work out”, “heavy”. “cant get enough”. and “mr nice watch”. i was super excited for this album to buy and hear this album but idk now. i guess i was expecting a classic.
This track is ridiculous. Gets better every time.
Cole fan or not, if you honestly listened to this with an open mind and formulated opinion after hearing it as opposed to going into it already sayin’…”shit’s fire” you would understand just how whack this shit is. And to those sayin’ he wasted a hov 16…nawl cuz hov was just as whack on this shit…everything about this song was weak, verses, production, beat…Cole is becoming everything he used to rap against. lame.
agree 100…ya stanning to hard get off his nuts
Please there is nothing wrong with the song. People who say they Love hip-hop hate anything different. If you are listening to the lyrics, what is wrong with the song. Everybody can be hater, it is so easy
the wordplay and symmetry in jay’s first 8 or so bars destroyed anything you’ve heard in a while, you just to stupid to pick up on it
this song is dope!! whoever is hating knows nothing about the music industry, if he doesnt make a few mainstream songs then how’s he suppose to sell and stay relevant? If he doesnt have a radio friendly song and doesnt get spins hes gonna end up getting dropped from the label. He probably has 4 mainstream songs out of all the records he’s ever released. know about the industry and how it works before you talk shit.
Has nothing to do with hate. This just isn’t good. You can go with a mainstream and still make it hot. This isn’t no matter how you try to flip it.
And before you call me another hater…Been a fan since the first mixtape. Went to see him at Bumbershoot and Neumo’s last year.
These dudes just want everyone to be broke and make music just for them…
Song is hot. If it was TI faggot ass, ya wouldve been praising it, and J-Cole is way nicer than TI
Man leave TI alone I don’t even kno how he got on this post wtf TI got to do with this song
someone got a hard on for ti. he not even part of the post and dude is wrting him love letters and shit.
Dam that was wack. WTF Cole!
Man I’m just not feeling this one. Maybe it’ll grow on me like “Heavy” did, but Iunno. I was expecting so much more and this was all over the place.
you guys cant even admit the song is bad … even for a mainstream joint its wack.
this shit is all over the fucking place.
real quick look at the number of plays and refresh your page and look how quick the plays go up almost 10 thousand plays and 338 hate posts sumthing tells me you guys are in denial track is dope for what he was going for
WooooooW. Jay went in so hard! The wordplay is craaaazy!
“I got a Hublot, I call it Tebow
I strap that bitch with a gator band
Y’all niggas ball half-time
Y’all niggas like the Gator band
Y’all niggas need a time out
Who got these niggas all wound up?
Sucka I’m 7:30
Y’all know where y’all niggas gonna wind up?”
DAMN!
not the right beat for jay to be on..this shits crazy…i wish the jay feature had more of a feel like drake did with jay on thank me later..i forget the name of it right now..but this shits different..its prolly why jay z took so long for his verse to get to em lol he shoulda told him no get a diff beat FUCK IT STILL COLE WORLD BABY..THE ALBUMS GONNA BE A CLASSIC EVERYONE KNOWS THAT..COLE SHOULDA WENT OUTSIDE THE BOX AND GOT A BEAT FROM SOMEONE ELSE FOR THIS THOUGH..HES STILL THE BEST RAPPER ALIVE
Man o my this,is 1 overated dude even drake,had way better songs,on hes first album ….seems like dude has no swagg at all drake is half jew and he has more swagg better sounding music the whole nine yards ..this dude cole has no deleivery at all I give it a one because Jay z helped the kid if jay wasent on it it would b a zero the beat is wack he has no good lines to make me say yea thats dope ..news flash if he got four song out and they all wack what u think the rest of songs he got left gonna do put a fork in him hes done im not even gonna buy off the streets either im not gonna frostwire it waste of time
Beat is wack
STILLL better than work out lol
I agree
I agree it is better than workout but I saw this coming.
CashmereThought dot Net
Hahahaha this probably Pokemon Red sample see “Heavy” is the normal stage in the fire gym and “Mr. Nice Watch” is like the boss gym trainer who you beat to get the fire badge, hahahaha so wack
I really was looking for some fresh hiphop blood but seems,like hes not the chosen 1 beat,is,whack lame bars and,Jay z realy couldent save him on this song I want be listening to none of hes new singles again the are all dispicable I give it a 2 for afort his a young kid in this cole world tryna make it like he needs a personality someone can realate 2 dude has 0 swagg he will do 78 thousand first week hes not even gonna pass that gay blood dude with a butterfly on his face
dope beat
At the beginning I was like, It can be real, freaking synth stuff…But the more you listen to it, the more the beat is growing and the message of the song will get to us. Lets believe in the Chosen One.
When are you guys going to realize Jay is not Lil wayne you have to play Jay’s shit back, because his shit is not for retards. He goes so hard on this one. Just because Jay whole flow is intelligent people think he does not go hard. Unlike Wayne who says a whole bunch of dumb shit fellow by a few intelligent words, so you retards can think.
What exactly did Jay say that was intelligent?
yup 100% some people dont read and never got out of the ninth grade you cant expect them to listen on a certain level if they cant read and comprehend on a certain level this song is good but its hate jay-z year so sorry cole you gettin a 1 from me its not personal but fuck jay-z HAHAA WTT COLE WORLD BITCHES. ILL BE BACK IN 2020 TO REVIEW DETOX PEACE
I was so excited for this kid, been listening to him for 2 years, what i was so hyped about was he stood alone, away from everyone else, was his own artist. Now he is just like everyone else. most of the hate is coming from j cole fans who are just dissapointed in the nigga cause he is selling out to an extent, meaning his creativity is watered down and influenced by the industry and what the next rapper is doing.
too dope
hottt
who ever says this wack is retarded.the way jay breaks down the maybach and cole killed it lines like “they same time is money but really girl its not if we ever go broke then time is all we got” cole is gonna succeed bc his mentor is jay
HARD TRACK, GROWER!
didnt like it at 1st. but DAMN ii LOVE IT.
cole is that dude.
mr next level.
this track grows on you, do you fools listen to music or do you just skim through it?
you guys are dumb this is clearly for the radio…. THERE IS NO WAY THIS IS FOR US COLE FANS!!!!! damn man listen to it 5 times i bet ull start bobbing ur head by the 3rd replay. hes not trying to be someoneelse thats just what rado hits soundlike. chill the f ooutttt
Wordd man, this is called a *single* he needs a way of drawing all the people who just skim through music and listen for a hot hook. This shit is dope after a few listens, bump it in the whip I guarantee you’ll feel it.
Man I’ve been cole fan since the warm up…and this is not what i expected to hear from the jay-z assisted song..I mean Drakes light up is wayyyy better than this shit….im not even gonna say it has to grown on me because at this point he should be dropping straight classics…what a waste of Jay-Z verse…damn..
some watch the throne shit
ill song
(shaking my head laughing)
Man this shit is mediocre and proves my point fiercely about this nigga.
(shaking my head laughing again)
Man this shit is wack as f. It’s very damn wack.
(going to listen to Jay Elec)
I hope Jay Elec hasn’t contracted this wack flu Jigga that Cole apparently caught. This ish is ass. LOL!
really? the fuck Jay? im tired of this bragging bout how much money Jiggas got music. we fuckin know. now you’re rubbin off on Cole. people get pissed when i say i don’t like Jay anymore, well when i know he is one of the best and most lyrical MCs and he makes the same music as these new idiots do then i’m gonna hate him. i expect these two to get together and destroy some lyrics and talk about some worldly shit. but no, more fuckin braggin! and i hate this fuckin beat. sooooooo disappointed. co-sign J cole WTF. 3
Another person who does not understand keeping with the concept of the song. Jay’s verse was crazy
obviously you didnt understand the concept of my comment. i new by the name it was gonna be about money. i wasnt excpecting the beat to suck. yeah compared to all the other 2000 songs just like it by all these wack rappers they kill it, same goes for WTT. but when you get two people together that are capable of making some soulful music but instead would rather make the same shit everyone else does, it’s stupid.
some of you people are so fucking stupid.. go buy garbage ass carter 4 and support the bull shit if you aint fucking with this..
I was sitting here hoping…..and PRAYING……that when I pressed play….this shit didn’t sound like some WATCH THE THRONE mess…..
WHAT THE FUCK MAN???? I’m SOOOOOOOOO sick of these goofy ass JAY-LACK sounding beats (ursh’s bro).
Decent verses. Don’t like the beat at all it has to much of a pop sound to it. It will sound good with a live band at a concert though and with like a dubstep remix or something but I hope this isn’t the only jayz feature on the album.
hahahaha fuck GAY Cole and Cock Nation Records, this track sucked! Suck it Gay Cole Dick Riders!
Its funny,Drake puts out a ok song,while J.Cole got some hits out,then Drake releases hits,and J.Cole drops this shit,the title sounds like a Pokemon Nintendo Game,J.Cole is good,but all that hype for nothing
This is garbage!
Why you hating on Jay you’ll about the same age. Come on son you 40 with a backawards hat and your name is Mu tha DOn.
okay this is a “top ten” friendly song but its still prety good. Theres gotta be a balance. I mean lost ones is still on the album so he clearly hasnt sold out.
This shit hot, HOV nuts on that shit!!
Am I the only one who likes this? Not great but good.
This song is fire! yall haters
dope.
Man fuck that shit this is garbage !
1 star again!
I listen to jay z and j cole on the regular,I still say this shit is garbage!
AVERAGE USER RATING
3.37
beat is fuckin SICKKKKKK you hate cause it sounds different, listen to their flows, shit is fuckin fire. fuckin goon as niggas hear a modern sounding beat and immediately hate.
WTF are you talking about. If you think this beat is sick you bumped your head somewhere. Its good but not sickk, and its not like he did anything great with it to make people see past the dubstep like beat. This is J cole we talking about people think he’s the hip hop god right now- this is too weak
379 post = 3.37..
I rest my case!
Let the “u a hater” talk begin gtfoh!
1 star again….
Im not hatin, I like the song, but j cole should of held off on releasing this till the album was out. Come on now, you waited forever for the jay-z verse you got it and your handing it over like that?
I got a Hublot I call it Tebow
I strap that bitch with a Gator band
Y’all niggas ball half time ya’ll niggas like the gator band

Song gets better the more you hear it, but Cole needs better beats and better hooks for Cole World to deliver
i ain’t stupid,my ears don’t lie..
This beat is elephant shit…
new flow… shits gangsta
1 star,quit crying like a little bitch just because jay-z & j cole song is ass…
1 star again!
So this the song we been waiting on ,LMAO!
Yup and it’s a classic. Cole World!! hey nice watch!!
man Cole changed i loved his soul records not this club hype songs. Go back to soul!
I HOPE this is the only mediocre song on the album……cant get enough is fire and im glad work out is a bonus that was wack….even tho its actually becoming a hit lol should be a good album even evidence had a meddiocre track so far i didnt like the aesop rock shit
If this song was classical I wouldn’t hesitate to give this a five rating but this SHIT IS TRASH BOTTOM___________……..
NO STARS THIS TIME MUTHAFUCKA!
Listened to it twice…This track ain’t for Cole, He needs those beats that really get you head knokin. Its cool that he want to produce most of the songs on his album and all but He’s not great (imo) as a producer. I know the ROC got Just Blaze and Kanye on lock. I wish he would of tapped Blaze and YE for these tracks:
Self Made-Maybach Music
Mac Miller- All around the world
Eminem- Session 1
Saigon-The entire greatest story ever told album(just blaze)
Kanye-…any beat
Just Blaze..exhibit d through z
Basically the album is HURTING production wise
u niggas crazy. ignorant niggas heads implode when nigga flip they style. but then complain about how errthang the same. smh …fire
WOW!!!! This is what the hell I’ve been waiting for?????!!!!! This is some bullshit!!!! This is almost as disappointing when I got amped up for the Lupe/Jay Z pressure joint and it was doo doo…man, I’m kind of bummed out…
I agree with your first sentence but…. really now Pressure was one of the best songs on that album by far and by far the best lyrical songs of that year. Monster verses from both of them..I don’t get it
How could u not like pressure
trash its the song is so whack it stanks that y i call it trash
Cole is the truth. September 27th! Cole World!
wow what a disappointment smh
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
this lame sounds like flo rida with jay-z. pathetic. i feel bad for you kids that think this geek is something special. techno dance beat, with a guitar breakdown.
HAHAHAHAHA
jay-z gave him a throwaway. NO STAR QUALITY. ZERO. who is j. cole? a boring geek rapper. 2011 shit.
dam that’s alot of hate lol..but let’s be real J Cole is still nicer than most of the rappers out right now I rate him.
He ain’t nicer than drizzy i tried to tell niggas
@M.U y u hating so hard for. If u don’t like it its koo but to vote 7 times to bring the rating down. Thats on some hating $hit..its a decent track, their flows are on point. U hated before you played it but I already forgave ya .. Cole world still gonna be the best album of the year
Yes. I’m feeling this joint don’t know what y’all talk in bout. Cole heating up right time.
shit is hot
this song aint that bad, itz got a WTT feeling to it
no
cole world! where the true hiphop fans at?
They Better not be feeling this bs man this shit ass
This shit go hard.. 5 stars!!
listen to the lyrics you dumb fucks.
I think I get it…from reading the comments, people are rating the lyrics of the song, they rating the beats…go figure. #ignorant
if you think this is whack you don’t know hiphop gtfo.
if you can make a better track than this go ahead 😉
lyrically on point dont skim through LISTEN.
jigga goes IN!
expected way more..3 stars max…but fuck HOV still got it, “42 be better than 24s”…really is true
this song is to generate hype and its done just that! 5.
cole world, sideline story.
Didnt meet up to my expectations…. but why does it feel like HOV is dickin J. Cole.. I mean he gives a half a verse? Come on HOV give em some love
Go to school and research Jays verse. Wordplay is mindblowing. Better yet, I can help.
http://rapgenius.com/J-cole-mr-nice-watch-lyrics
I like the old cole better, but if he produced this, his production skills have increased tremendously
The techno style beat sounds way different than his normal stuff, but I fucks with it.
SHIT SUCKS YALL BE REAL NIGGAS BE FLEXIN FOR J. COLE LIKE ALL HIS SHIT IS GREAT
LOL at people saying they like the old cole better, you niggas aint heard lost ones? naa didnt think so 5.
cole world, still a cole world. 5
believe it or not this guy is still better than 99.99% of the rappers you know. don’t be in denile ignorant niggas
this song > carter 4 LOL
I wish this song could have been longer
im guessing niggas haven’t figured out the deep message behind this song?…figures.
what deeper message??
good digs for Cole. he swaggin on this.
5.
FUCKIN CRAZY 5.
I didn’t skim through the track,I actually listened to the song all the way through you dumb fuck…
I still say it’s garbage but for all you people out there that’s mad so what!
So I can’t give an honest opinion…
I can rate this song as many times as I want GTFOH!
stfu, lookin like a bootleg dave chappelle
Hov’s verse goes over your head. That’s why you dont’t like it.
STFU!
like
It’s that “DubHop” shit!(Dubstep/Hiphop) that was themed in WTT. 2/5. This nikka been crying for a jay track and did this bullshit.

play it loud! 5
ya’ll weezy groupies hear that shit…. when jigga goes in on weezy it’s game over… good track… some peeps are slow no disrespect…. this will grow on u… i spot a good track easily… this is fire… give this a vid… with proper promo j cole sell 300000 first week easily
Hey might go 150,000 max hes first week because of the old fans butnext week 19,000 u m Iust understand this dude is not gaining any new stans foreal shit is garbage and he gotta lotta hits on this song today because all the hype I bet u not even half of the.people that push play on hes song gomna cop it this song is trash
How da hell this song is rated so high ot should b a flat 2.00 not a 3.46 I will give it 1 star because of jay z the beat is wack and it sounds like he tryna jack drakes swAgg with the hook not original I hope cole reads hiphopdx matter of fack I no he does a hommie u seem cool as a person u are talented but I got too b the first to break it too u ur album is a first class flop and I had some faith in u too dude I think u are capable but some one is learning u wrong playa
not what i expected. i was thinking something totally different after i heard this
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nzNglU5ZUM0
if you think j cole is a sell out go to uk amazon and they put the albums snippet and come back and say he sold out haha nigga that shit sounds raw af got some soulful beats and you can here he is hungry by some lines that pass by. couldnt resist still buying the album
#classic
http://www.amazon.co.uk/Cole-World-Sideline-Story-Explicit/dp/B005MYUL4Y/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8
^^^^^^check it out fuck coles haters haha they going to be silence
It’s not a horrible song, Its not a great song. People that are really hating are saying it sucks and the dickriders say its 5 stars. Why is Hip Hop like this? Beat is different not unique(WTT), lyrically decent from J cole and once again Jay-z kills a nigga on his own shit(he had some classic bars on that shit) It equals out to be a decent/ok beat. What I can’t stand about fans is they don’t rate music properly anymore. And ohhh lawd! now they saying it will grow on you. People don’t find that wack as hell? Just because it’s a rapper you like people just automatically love his music like you afraid to judge it. Ya’ll the one’s makin this dude’s money and this is a 5star song to you. J cole fans sounding like Lil wayne fans right now i swear. And I think Cole is dope overall.
I ain’t mad at it.
Huge J. Cole fan and i don’t don’t think this is 5 stars its Not Bad but its really not that Good neither… I Would give 2.5 stars i understand Fans wanna defend him but some of Ya is saying 5 stars when they probably not feeling it neither he has plenty of Great songs it’s ok to dislike one
DAMN!!! J.cole Shitted Jay Z!!! 5/5
Not a classic but damn Jay went in on that. I give it a 4
Jay Z killed his verse…….and i like Nas…so not riding his……nice song its catchy
i will NOT vote
I’m a big J.Cole fan, but this shit is weak!! Fuck all this patting him on the back shit his stans be doing. Cole’s flow on this is awkward as hell! Jay effortlessly bodied him on this. The chorus is just plain awful.
Mr. Nice Watch
Who dat
Workout
Can’t Get Enough
That’s 4 songs off the album already i can barely mess with. They all range from mediocre to good (Who Dat). None are special. None of them is touching any of the material from the Come Up or Warm Up. Hopefully the rest of the album is straight heaters, but I won’t hold my breath.
http://www.amazon.co.uk/Cole-World-Sideline-Story-Explicit/dp/B005MYUL4Y/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8
listen to the snippets trust me he is no sellout
The only reason I gave this 5 stars is cuz there’s no 4.5 lol and u gotta take off .5 for Cole’s beat selection. I like his bars tho and Hov fucked this yawn up something crazy! The first few bars are tricked the hell out! I like how u kill it with the Maybach talk from da Otis video…The sad part is that 75% of the ppl who listen won’t fully understand Jay’s verse!
Hov had some crazy word play in the first few bars. Tying in football references with watch references to stay on point with the theme of the track? Hov is takin’em back to school.
This shit is FIRE!
I’m a huge J. Cole fan but this is wack. Is it me or is he making songs that seem to be catered to the mainstream? Honestly, it isn’t him,
Wow….this is garbage! I expected so much better….the beat is awkward, Cole’s flow is awkward, too! Jay’s verse is second rate.
If you’re not digging this, you got shitty speakers. Bump this on a decent sound system and you’ll change your mind. This track doesn’t define J.Cole. He chose to use Hov on his “I’m better than you” track on the album, which makes sense. You can’t hate on Cole, he’s multitalented and always improving. Cole World no nice guy.
FOH with that lame excuse. You can spot a good hip hop song on any type of speakers.
Shittiest excuse ever, Jay MURDERED this track.
BANGIN! NICE RAPPERS PUSH THE ENVELPOPE, SIMPLE. 8)
Ayo J’cole…come suck my dick nigga! I know its a cole world and I want to be in it…just suck this dick please?
shots fired at lil wayne…listen carefully and read lyrics……jay z murders this really think about it maaaannnn
You niggas ever bust a nut and just get lazy after?
cole produce this? went bonkers on the prodction. might be the first time his production surpassed his rapping on a track. bananers
killlin
its da roc $$$
Also anyone saying this track is dubstep have no clue what dubstep is. Just cause it sounds more electronic doesnt mean its dubstep.
They have better unknown rappers don’t need a jay z feat
how could you not fucks with this beat..shit is FIRE….Come on the rock is in the motherfuckin buildin
COLE WORLD BABY REAL COLE WORLD
shid iz cool
It has a †Niggas in Paris†feel to it.
when the piano breaks….true cole world mashed with mainstream…get yo coats muthafuckas
fergot 5 star
Worse song ever, soldier boy is better than this trash honestly. What happened J cole. Sell out pop rapper get dropped from the ROC. Flow is horrible and lyrics are of those of a five year old child.
You sound like an idiot. Go listen to soulja boy.
ez5star wtf
J Cole the Future!!
hot track cole went in hov murdered that shit
Confirmation Bias – a tendency to favor information that confirms their preconceptions or hypotheses regardless of whether the information is true.As a result, gather information selectively, and interpret it in a biased way. The biases appear for emotionally significant issues and for established beliefs.
I like cole but I listened to this with an open mind. No bias. Definitely not “fire”. Its average at best. “fire” just seems like some shit to say when dont know how to compliment a song with real criticism
You have to not like lyrical talent to not like this song. I don’t particularly like the beat but the word play is incredible. Jay is a monster, listen to hisi verse 10 times and come back to re-rate 5/5.
j.cole fans are not constructive. theu say shit is classic after on listen without giving any real reason why. then when the same song gets cut from the album they say it was wack in the first place. no constructiveness, just dickriding yes men
Your ignorant, its not just J cole fans, its wayne fans, jay-z fans, eminem fans, they all do it the same way.
Fucking Awesome
What???? Do you like the track or don’t you?
Jay murdered the track, buried it, and then had a funeral for it. Damn!!!
I’m sorry Jay Z is dope. That nigga is so dope. And this is a hot song fo sho.
get up off jay c*ck. dick rider.
Actually, I’d have to agree, Jay is sick.
If you like Jay, you’re a dickrider?
You fucking hip-hop nerds are ridiculous. Why do you hate the fact that he’s good?
Dick rider? Nas fan, right? LMAO. Get over it, Jay spits hotter after 20 years than Nas ever did.
My goodness!! my mouth has bin open since i listened 2 this song! and Jay-Z!! lORD HAVE MERCY!!!
These 4 cats are the dopest to me right now…
1. Jay Z (complex lyrics, infinite replay value, voice, ride the beat like water, swag)
2. Drake (ride the beat crazy with the perfect change ups into the dopest hooks. Best ride out music.)
3. J Cole (complex wordplay, high replay value)
4. Joe Buddens (Mood Music 4 highly underrated. Complex lyrics and delivery. Most passion in his voice.)
SLAP YURSELF AND START LISTENING TO MUSIC
If you think any of those dudes lyrics are complex you need to check out this new rapper named iMCompleX. Search for him on youtube & thank me later!
3.54 ha? HHDX C section and raters and the stupidest people on Earth
I see why it took Jay that long to give Cole his verse. That verse was incredible.
Bumping this $hit, jay murdered it
Nice song, expected more from this collab tbh. Nice verse by Jay but I dont understand why he has to say N*gga so much, if it gets played on the radio his whole verse is gonna be censored :S.. And I think this song is made for the radio, not meant as a classic hiphopsong I think. 4 stars.
Jay gives out a great verse but what the fuck are you doing j cole? Most anticipated album and every song i’v heard from it has been average and you just got molested by Jay z on this track. Sad day in hip hop if Wayne puts out a better album than j cole.
I was really looking forward to hearing this song…i let down
Definitely don’t know about purchasing this album day one anymore…
Beat is original yet dope, lyrics are there, chorus is money… Why all the hate?
If you a J. Cole fan, you can appreciate this, and understand why there has to be tracks like this… This is DOPE.
Its cool. Jay did his thing. Listened to album snippets. Sounds like a great album.
The Track Is Solid It Could Get Spins Jay Of Course did What he Would Do Cole Wen In Averagely dough he could done way better
as expected jay-z bodied the track…J.cole is that nigga though and he is showing that he can switch the style too…. 5/5
I knew J. Cole was sitting around with his fingers crossed, praying he could get a Jay-Z track for his first release. What a chump! Can’t stand on his own two, depending on J?! Lame! Now I know his album will be trash & he’s getting dropped this year!
Yeah, he was just depending on it huh? This shit’s Watch The Throne 2, what with every track having Jay on it, right?
Jay’s his mentor, in his eyes; his idol. If you were in NCAA and you got to ball with Jordan, WOULDN’T YOU?
Get the fuck out of here with that shit.
You wouldn’t be, huh? We’re talking about JAY!!! (a worldwide icon) who signed him.
This is the guy yall claim is the next great? “I’m rappin’ like it Christmas Eve…” (????) Who HASN’T come up with that line yet???? This dude is the most overrated artist EVER. I’ll stick w/ Lupe, Talib, Andre 3K, etc…
Because you weren’t clamoring for Lupe ‘selling out’ this year, too. Bitch please. You only like the underground artists, or supposed ones, because it makes you unique. What are you, a hipster? It’s good music, just accept it.
album snippets are up on amazon uk, this is the worst track by far the rest of the album sounds like FNL with better production
its still a cole world
http://www.amazon.co.uk/Cole-World-Sideline-Story-Explicit/dp/B005MYUL4Y/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8
dope
Daaaaaamn jigga murdered that shit, Cole went in too. Cole world!
Its too bad that so many hip-hop fans cant be open to other kinds of music, I’m not gonna lie this isnt what I expected but its still hot and I think it will go really well in the context of the rest of the album.
Come on, this song is fucking dope !
I completely agree.
People just love hating on something they’re not used to. This track reminds me of “Niggas In Paris” from Watch the Throne (especially when that chorus & guitar riff kicks in).
Lovin’ the experimental sound.
great SINGLE. Get off your asses and hit a club sometime.. take a ride in the whip and bump this shit. Enjoy life. Dont sit on blogs all day shitting on everything that your lame ass cant relate to.
if this was a drake or wayne song you’d be doing exactly what you’re accusing people of doing. Shut the fuck up dickrider.
No, he said the truth, enjoy life, you fools.
if this was a Wayne song ? Excuse me, Wayne dropped some diarrhea not too long ago called the carter 4.
Cant Get Enough>Mr Nice Watch>Work Out >>>>>>>> Carter 4>>>>>>> How to Love
For a banger, Mr Nice Watch is great. Otherwise, Hov wouldnt have literally JUMPED on it.
And yea im a Cole fan, im inclined to like his songs and support him, but thats cuz I know he has deeper, classic songs on his album. Listen to the snippets of Cole World and stfu.
beat is worse this sounds like some gayass dirty south shit what about nyc rap? cole’s flow sucks
I get the whole “No more Mr. Nice guy, Hello Mr. Nice Watch”, but fucking with Jay you expect something more. I’m mean, if I were Cole I would have shot for a more introspective Jay or something more original and more lyrical, but instead we got baller shit… I know Cole is more original than this. The beat had potential with the change ups from a futuristic club sound to a piano/synth guitar ballad but still it fell flat. Maybe it’s the drums I’m not feeling, either way it needed something else or something was just missing… I expected more all around. I guess I wont be getting my hopes ups for Cole’s album…
Listen to the end of Jay’s verse where he talks about going back and forth and when backs up he’s frontin’… Best line on the track.
I liked it. I understand why people don’t like it/are disappointed, but I don’t expect anything from collaborations; I just listen to see if it’s something I can jam to.
This was str8 garbage! For me, J.Cole’s latest stuff ain’t been poppin’. Will peep the album still though.
this is actually one of the weakest tracks on the lp, i just listened to all the snippets on amazon, sideline story sounds like a mixtape track (which is a very good thing if you listened to coles mixtapes) gods gift and rise and shine sound sik aswell..
theres a track missing tho, forgot what its called but it was on the tracklist when cole released it…..unless hes bringin it out for the last any given sunday, fuuk nose
mr. nice watch gets 2/5
FROM A BIG COLE FAN
Everytime cole decides to make somethin thatss not epic in terms of deepness people complain smh
Cheer up
Nothing lasts forever
Daddys little girl
these tracks arnt on amazon….
anyone kno why????
must meen work out is no longer a bonus cut and these three are…….
?????
This shit is fire. Stop fronting you clowns.
40 year old phenom
This song is really a 2, but I gave it a 3 based on the originality of the track. Dude has good lyrics, but his delivery is suspect as hell. Drake has NOTHING to worry about with this dude……
AS I said before…get ready for an EPIC FLOP for J. Cole.
Lupe >>>>>>>>>>>
Lupe at his worst >>> J. Cole in his prime.
lasers……lmao i love lupe fans, sad sad people, lupe isnt the best rapper, the guy isnt even top 10
FACTFACTFACT, hes a good rapper, but so many people ride his dick when hes only mediocre
Lupe used a 10th of his potential on LASERS and his verses SHITTED on the rap game, the music was whack, yeah, but the lyrics were still there. Food & Liquor = best album of the last decade by far.
Thanks for your self-righteous, elitist feedback.
Have fun arguing with people (anonymously) as to why “Lasers” is better than “Sideline Story.” That’s one challenge, even Lupe wouldn’t make.
Food & Liquor = best album of the last decade by far hahahahahahahahahah no
it was a sik album, i stil listen to it now, but its no wer nea the best fukin album of the last 10 years, chamber music was 15x better than any lupe album. fukin 8 diagrams was better than lasers and thats my least favourite wu album
im sorry but lupe isnt and never will be the best rapper alive, he has one good album, his second was half decent, and lasers….WELL WELL WELL
food & liquor is one of the best albums last decade, what’s better maybe common’s be, or little brother’s minstrel show, nothing really compares as far as critical acclaim though, and lupe is abn all-time great how can he be compared to cole before dudes dropped an album yet, their mixtape game is even though.
Jay still the king, Cole couldn’t hold shit to him on his worst day.
“There’s so many thrones, why we argue who is the King?” —Common
Jay spits hotter than Nas ever has, J. Cole should drop a collabo with Nas, both are whack as fuck. Jay, best wordplay and metaphors ever.
you must be 15 years old or younger….
@LMAO You must be an idiot that doesn’t go to school. His lyrics must have went over your head. This goes for most of the people on this site. J. Cole definitely didn’t do his thing on this though. Oh well, shit happens. LMAO at you.
Not the greatest Cole song, but still good
Jay really showed u Dummies that he is still THE BEST AT 42… THAT’S CRAZY KIDS…
jigga goes innn!
memphis bleek >>> j.cole
SWEAR TO GOD!
j.cole is BORING. this nigga never bagged hoes, never knocked niggas out, he was never fly. and he’s not a dope rapper. dope rappers have quotables. a unique voice. a signature flow. like jay-z.
this beat SUCKS. j.cole SUCKS. he will FLOP. and jay-z will distance himself, more than he already has. i can’t get over how corny this beat is. and these little niggas think it’s a HEATER. electric crap. no soul. j.cole rapping and rapping i didn’t catch one quotable, one interesting bar.
jay-z signed the most vanilla nigga of all time. jay-z has so much power, he can get geeks excited about a mediocre, no personality, no skill, nigga like j. cole.
just drop the album and flop already, nigga had a verse on the blueprint 3 and still hasn’t dropped. he’s not ready, he’ll never be ready. son is trash.
do you listen to music or do you just skim through it?.
wondering if he’s listening as well, thing song it deco, pretty hot. u think cole’s care about your hating, if he flops he graduated with honors from st. johns bro. again if he flops he still has a career as a producer as he produces almost 95% of his own tracks yall niggas sound very uninformed
jigga stan using jigga quote like a jigga stan.
i listen. i listen enough to know memphis bleek is a superior emcee to j.cole, in just about every category. memphis bleek has more personality. more charisma. a hotter flow. and he could make flossing songs without sounding like a nerd that makes flossing songs to get a release date.
i’m not saying memphis bleek is the holy grail. but he’s better than j.cole. the same geeks gassing j.cole would shit on bleek.
jay is a powerful man. he has the hip hop world waiting on a everyday, geek niggas, long delayed debut album.
Man fuck Bleek. Where he at now? Bleek can see J. Cole. Cole World…get with it.
i could not agree more, you basically took the words right out of my mouth. j cole is pretty wack, he has no swag he was basically a nerd in hs and the dudes ugly i mean have you seen his unibrow?? im sorry im not trying to be judgmental but this is hiphop and there is more to it than just being able to out words together
boy cold
grows on you!
this has caused a lot of controversy!
either stand behind the new era of rap like cole, kendrick lamar, krit etc etc or do something about it, if you don’t like it, your draggin hiphop down, who likes lil wayne?
why didnt jay z finish with the black album??????
out of all the new comers, lyrical or non lyrical, this guy has the qualities to reach the furthest, think longevity.
FIRE
its NC allday but this shit is wack dont know what he was doing witht that beat skip button allday
then it got jay on it so we know yall want say its wack
this guy works his ass off for real good music in the game and you niggas hate and criticize every little thing, bet y’all lovin lil wayne right now huh? you are the ones killing hiphop not the artists.
Nigga u sound dumb this song is whack point blank
Jay bodied Cole on this. Cole barely caught the beat.
rep something real like cole and maybe oneday a mind will be inspired by him to create something even realer that you might like, what you think will amount from a lil wayne fan?
At first I gave this a 1/5, but after giving it another chance I’ll bump it up to 2.5/5. This is a club record so I understand that Cole doesn’t need to be on some deep shit. People are saying that this is similar to ‘Niggas in Paris’ and that song worked because Jay-Z had a cold ass flow on that joint, and Jay comes correct on this track too. Cole’s flow is lacking, he only sounds decent on the hook.
This song is garbage. It’s like I’m shoving trash into my ears. If you put your ear on a dumpster and listen close, this is the beat you might hear.
average at best, J cole rhymes is better .Jay fall off big time
this shits hot you know his cd is gonna be full of those classic boom bap beats like on lights please and lost ones but then theres gonna be songs for everyone like this work out and can’t get enough and for what he’s got for commerical tracks he’s doin it right this it what will seperate him from just another undergroundish dude with nice classic beats and songs like this will make people realize who would never actually give him a chance how good he is and will spread his popularity. good job cole this cd is a first day purchase for me
When Jigga out-rhymes you in 2011, you know you fucked up.
And the beat is boring.
this dude is garbage.
seen him live.
these new rappers think screaming lyrics, struggling to project, is killing it live. these new niggas CANNOT perform live. no connection to the crowd, slam dancing, screaming, sounding like shit. drake rolling his eyes, holding his hands like a gay, as his sung hook plays over the system off a CD.
the talent level isn’t there. notice how j.cole doesn’t know how he wants to rap. then jay-z comes and sounds like jay-z. jay saved this pathetic track thats been hyped and gassed since cole got signed. a let down. like cole himself.
is j.cole an everyday man? or is he a baller with expensive taste as this song would indicate? he’s neither. he’s whatever sells. this nigga is desperate. doesn’t matter. he will never pop, because there’s nothing to latch on to. girls don’t wanna fuck him. niggas don’t wanna be him. only geeky internet rap fans like cole. young internet geeks like geek rappers.
beanie sigel >>>> j cole
freeway >>> j cole
young chris >>> j cole
if young chris got this kinda push, yall wouldn’t even argue. jay keeps him in the dark. overhyped, overrated, bland rapper.
shut the fuck up. how bout that sucka?
first week sales gonna have jay-z acting like he doesn’t KNOW j cole.
this dude’s hype exists only on the internet, among jay-z dickriders.
FACT: if jay-z doesn’t cosign cole, NOBODY gives a fuck about cole.
end. of. story.
HAHAHA it’s SO EASY to hate on someone who is getting big. Don’t be so butt hurt, mayne. You sound like a pathetic motherfucker.
this song isn’t trash, it’s not a classic Cole track either. It’s just a fun track that is listenable.
cole world.
this beat is fucking horror-ible …
jay z is a 5 , j cole has flow and personality of a toilet. im not feeling his hype. he no wack he got bars, but he not entertaining
this shit garbage!!!!!!!!!!!!!
JUST ADMIT IT … THIS DUDE AINT ALL THAT. HE’S AVERAGE.
HIS BUZZ ONLY EXISTS ON THE INTERNET. EVEN BIG SEAN HAD 10X MORE BUZZ AND HIS SHIT FLOPPED TOO.
man be for real this the unmixed track dummie. listen to it
Everybody thinks their a damn critic and really gets a kick out of spending time dissing songs via a comment thinking your opinion even matters. Just listen, enjoy music for what it is. & if you don’t, change the station.
J. cole career is gonna mirror jay-z on niggas not gonna respect cole world like they didnt respect reasonable doubt when it first came out so when he drop albums non stop and mark your favorite rapper name out and and put his on top dont be mad. If you say he cant spit go listen to “lost ones” and then tell me what new rapper besides lupe is fucking with him break down lyrics like jay said and go bar for bar and tell me who touching him
you comparing Reasonable Doubt to Cole World ??? have you heard the sample album ? he released it today, its full of garbage songs like this.
lance
Sorry homie, but nothing i’ve heard so far from Cole World is anywhere near the level of Reasonable Doubt. Not even close.
Can I Live >>> Cole World. Off the feeling and shivers you get alone. Jay is a boss, Cole is a boring fag with no charisma.
uh
All of the lights is on J cole. People expect a CLASSIC J cole album(fans been saying it for one mad long now). Meaning, he can’t come with anything wack. So far iv’e heard like 3 weak songs that’s gonna be one. I don’t think one or a few songs is gonna ruin his career, but he better come correct next time cus its lookin to me at least that its gonna be a mediocre album. Look at what that did to Lil Wayne and Lupe. Ain’t no time for weak shit homie especially when there are so many wack rappers out and you’re projected to be one of the best. IMO he needs to stop producing so much its almost almost arrogant to me. So many producers out there that coulda contributed more…is he tryna save money or something???!!
*****”thats gonne be on it”*****

600 posts and most of them are negative, sheesh.
Now that’s something positive! It shows people still have some decency and intellect.
Keep hating people
This song is ill..watf the haters tlkin about??? its not the most lyrical cole cud go but its single material..work out out was single material..cant get enough was single material, it was just for the ladies. this record is for the streets! stop hating already!!!
this is for the streets?
*sees homosexuals leave project building holding hands*
THOSE streets. oh, okay.
last time i checked, electro synth club beats, with cheesy guitar sections, wasn’t street rap.
you kids are so fucking SOFT and clueless. if j.cole impresses you, you’re top emcee list FUCKING SUCKS!
LMFAO, this Fredd faggot had the nerve to say this gay club sounding techno shit is for the “streets”.
looooooooooool
Don’t feed the trolls.
all 3 of his singles so far have been try-hard commercial rap, and he has failed at it too.
does J. Cole not know who his fanbase is ?
we see hating is still the number one disease in america
It’s SO EASY to hate on things. People find the most pathetic excuses. Is this song THAT awful? Fuck no. Is it a god damn classic song? NO!!! Is it listenable? Yep.
People are pathetic.
lol I can picture his homo ass back pack fans singing along to this.
“It cost me a lot, my chain and my watch”
rotfl
ok lil wayne time to log off the computer and go work on the carter 5
why you say that, lil wayne could of very well said that line that cole was saying about his watch costing so much.
swagggggggggg
WTF is this techno pop Austin Powers shit!!! I’m done with mainstream rap!!!!!!
it was a let down expected better
I see why Cole thought this would be a perfect track for Jay. He didn’t slouch on it neither.
you know what i think we were expecting either to much or so much from Cole,cause after listening to this,its really not that bad,someone posted a comment on youtube saying “This track will grow on you”
Why everybody hate this song? Who needs whole album to be “boring” or “brooding”, it must be like some late jay shit, balanced and perfect
this tunes sick but not really a kinda beat that Cole would normally be on but it will grow alot on people.i just hope no more of the album gets leaked #ColeWorld
Check it out if u luv music u a fan of music in lyrics then u would no that this is a good song real shit when he spit on the hook see the problem is motherfuckers dont listen to real music no more all motherfuckers wanta hear dez dayz is dat south shit in that aint the only type of music music come from the essence of metaforsin raw lyrics it aint about party party cars ice in bs ya dig cole is the come up much respect 2 da kid
Coulda been worse I guess, I’ll probably never play this again……. I dunno just kinda boring
Yesterday some people got mad at me about my comments but I could care less,I’ve heard other songs from J-Cole & I gave them great reviews but I still say that this songs first impression was trash IMO.
Now I listened to the snippet CD & I say that this is the weakest track on the album,I don’t just skim thru the music,I listened to the track ten times str8..
I still say that J-Cole is a premiere artist in the industry however this song is not what I expected..
I thought that These two had better chemistry together…
I can’t knock anybody’s opinion but don’t knock mine…
Every time I listen to this song on this page I have the option to rate it..
IF YOU DON’T LIKE MY OPINION THEN SO BE IT…
#IDON’TCARE /:-(
my man i couldn’t agree with u more just not feelin the track beat lyrics everything
It’s a new sound thats all ,. not your traditional hip hop track, no loop , no RnB hook,. its somethign different thats all, .i enjoy it and i love the build up to the end. Thats what its supposed to be about,. if you look at all classic there are a few experimental trax,
@Alex
I actually listen to the music before I give my opinion kin-folk..
I felt disappointed when I heard this track…
The first 30 seconds is the make or break point on any record so I just spoke my mind fa sho..
Truthenola:
I see what you’re saying but the beat it self isn’t up to par,It lacked alot of depth from an instrumental stand point plus the vocal deliverer was boring to say the least,this track sounds very rushed and lukewarm but to each is own fa sho..
I agree man, i’ve been bumpin cole for 2 years now, and what i felt was dissapointed not only in this track but work out and cant get enough.
The second verse is cool but the beat is trash..
This is JAY-Z & J. COLE,
“COME ON PEOPLE”?
I’M SORRY BUT I EXPECTED MUCH BETTER,LYRICS ARE GOOD BUT WHEN IT’S SO MUCH ON THE LINE WHY PLAY WITH THIS SHIT..
Outta all the producers in the world this is the best beat these two could dig up,for an album at that,this is unacceptable..
They could’ve went to soundclick and got a better beat then this,I make beats & rap too but if I know that my beats are not up to standards then why try to fool myself…
I’ll fall back on this thread for a minute,
I ‘m about to read some of these comments I’ll be back…
Amazing
stop hatin damn
Hating and giving honest opinion are two totally different things …
/:-(
couldnt have said it better myself. most of the “hate” is coming from cole fans who are dissapointed and expected real hip hop shit, even coles lyrics are weak. I mean drake had a more hip hop song with jay than cole does.
IF YOU’RE GONNA MAKE A MAINSTREAM SOUNDING SONG AT LEAST MAKE IT SOUND HOT LIKE “SHE WILL” OR “LIGHTERS”. DAMN.
IF YOU’RE GONNA MAKE A MAINSTREAM SOUNDING SONG AT LEAST MAKE IT SOUND HOT LIKE “SHE WILL” OR “LIGHTERS”.
Stfu you patheic losers. This is classic shit. Cole World.
this song is average…
hmmmm just logged on… reading these comments, I must say, J.Cole’s fans aren’t as mature as once thought they were. It seems anytime someone expresses that they dislike the song, his fans bring up the term “Hater” much like the fan base of other average rappers. Ive even seen people give constructive criticism and J.Cole fans still use the hater cop out. Very sad.
I’m not hatin at all i think j cole is extremely dope but i’d expect a harder track than this. 3/5
this is like that one song on BP3 that I always skip, “Off That”.
2 stars.
Song is good, but the rest of songs on his debut aren’t like this at all, they’re more classic Cole. Just listen to the snippets on http://www.amazon.co.uk/Cole-World-Sideline-Story-Explicit/dp/B005MYUL4Y/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1316052211&sr=8-3
Gonna be a classic. Cole World No Blanket.
actually quite a few songs on the album sound mainstream-ish like this. “Cant get enough”, “workout”, “in the morning”.
the album sounds great. yes you have this one, work out, cant get enough and in the morning as “mainstream” but the rest sounds really great. this song is average to be honest cole needs to rap he couldn’t keep up with the beat
can’t get enough is the perfect mix of being lyrical and appealing to the mainstream. work out is not great lyrically but thats bc it’s not supposed to be. the sample is great, it’s catchy and beat thumps. in the morning has some clever lines, mainstream appeal, and anthem for the ladies.
it’s all good…cole knows what he’s doing. Gotta please the label. Mr. Nice Watch seems like the weakest track on the album, but it’s still not a bad track…it’s just different sounding and people aren’t used to it.
Classic The Legend “Hard Life Manual” mixtape, free download at classicthelegend.bandcamp.com
im a j. cole fan and this is weak dont lie to yourself i was losing faith in his album because i heard the singles he released and understood why he did but i listened to the snippets and boy did he changed my mind about his album. sounds promising
probably one of coles worst rating ive seen. the songs cool, not great but a banger. but ima still buy the album cuz i know about 6 tracks are commercial and the rest are gonna be straight CRACK! like cole said the worlds all about having a balance.. Cole World!!
SMH at people expecting Cole to only rap about the struggle and pain. That shit would get old real fuggin quick. Cole made it big and is showing off, big fuckin deal. he’s happy. u haters are maddddd lol
shutup faggot
Word..shut up kid. You act like there’s nothing between rapping about the struggle and rapping about a fuckin’ watch. That’s the problem, rappers are scared to walk that middle ground that every day people walk, that’s why rap isn’t music for the people anymore. It’s music for dumb young shallow fucks that justify everything by calling people ‘haters’.
Ya crazy, this shit is fire! Cole and Jay both did there thing. Cant wait for the album.
if Cole released this as a Any Given Sunday track ya’ll would be like WHY DIDNT HE PUT THIS ON THE ALBUM.
Stupid asss fans
Its not a bad song its not a great song its a song that can grow on people to be a good song cole is a great up in coming rapper I actually think that the sound is not that bad could be better but I think people look for that some everyday sound that the industry keep bringing.In music is not just about that its about being versatile in abstract hip hop is a form of art not copycat do what the next artist is doing so I give this a 4 real talk from a artist 2 a artist point of view. If it was a more upbeat song everybody be on it in I dont agree on that but that howI see it when I look at comments of like lil wayne in other people songs people seem to cater to that so it is what it is. Its a good look for him I believe niggaz already no he can spit in put together a good song while now the question remains can he make a hot classic album not a ight album classic u can play 4 years to come shoutout 2 cole its cool 4 what it is
its so obvious cole world is just gonna turn out to be another Lasers or Section 80 huge disappointment…
Laser was a huge disappointment, but Section .80 was ill
how the fuck you gonna call section 80 a disappointment? probly just way over ur head stupid ass bitch
J.Cole & Jay-Z>Drake & Lil Wayne
Jay-Z >>> Drake >>> Wayne >>> Cole.
Hip Hop is supposed to be the voice of the struggle,the pulse of the streets. Hip hop music lets you know no matter how hard it gets or how much you feel like giving up,at least you not the only one. Its that grit,that laughin with you one minute then slappin the shit out you the next moment for coming out your mouth wrong shit. Its ghetto life,its underdog life,its that yeah I aint got shit now but believe I aint stopping til I get it shit. Hip hop has been a brother,a father,a teacher,a inspiration,a comedian,a counselor,a therapist and a motivator for me. Its nothing like really good hip hop music. I’m talking bout when a MC is rhyming not giving a fuck if its played on radio or if this song he spitting on has the latest trendy sound in the production or even if anybody outside of his world enjoys it, He just had to capture this particular moment on record. Raw honesty combined with beats that make you completly forget about where you are and what you doing combined with unique individual talent, thats the hip hop I listen to and need,not this bullshit he sound like him and they both talking bout how paid they are on their FIRST album, and all the beats got new jack swing synths and weird noises and shit, and the nigga on the hook part is the only memorable moment but not really because that same nigga on everybody hook. Big went from being not able to buy pampers for his daughter on his first album to showing how all the hard work and honesty paid off on his second album because he had blown up by then,but you took the journey with him. If you rich before you started rhyming and thats your life cool,but talk about in a fresh skillful way,spit that shit like only you can,dont re-use the same ol lines and flows. Niggas used to hate to sound or act like another nigga,but now its cool to copy? I want the raw to come back,you aint working hard in the studio if every song you do is speaking on the same shit,how fucking hard is that. If you love that raw shit and you want to hear something fresh check me out,my name is Classic The Legend I rep the true life struggle,the gotta make something happen by any means ppl is who I rep,the ppl who think “yeah,you may have more cash than me right now,but when it come to this hip hop shit,you aint even on my planet” check out my latest mixtape “Hard Life Manual” free download here: classicthelegend.bandcamp.com
yo dawg, who the fuck is gunna read this long ass shit, get out of here with that shit
I’m not talking about j.cole btw,because he reps his truth to the fullest and is one of the best right now,I’m speaking on alllll the other bullshit. “Hard Life Manual” classicthelegend.bandcamp.com
j.cole might be the plainest, most vanilla, average rapper, to get popular, OF ALL TIME!
the ONLY reason j.cole has ANY fans? JAY-Z.
the ONLY reason this song is getting so much attention? JAY-Z.
he’s garbage live. no personality. no signature sound. boring flow. weak voice. cheesy producer. weak beats.
if hes the future, YALL ARE FUCKED!
hes not good at anything. hes good at getting a whole lot of attention for who he knows. this song sucks. if you like it. you like the electro dance movement hip hop embraced after losing its soul.
I thought I was the only one who thought that about him. I don’t wanna sound like a hater but he is very average sounding. I been saying this about him since the beginning. He needs to get some flavor in his voice and also try to work on his songwriting. Or atleast get him a good studio crew like Game. I always wondered how game’s hooks stayed decent after leaving 50 cent. I don’t think I will buy this album it sounds boring to me.
Drake is exactly the same lol.
EXACTLY what I’ve been thinking about him since I first heard him. He’s just soo dull and boring.
listen to to his mixtapes a few times before u say hes not that good. his album is definitley gonna be worth buying. im sure this is not his best song on the album. 3/5

This is pretty whack compared to a lot ish I listen too like elzhi, diabolic, tonedeff, percee-p, black thought, nas, juice, pharaohe monch, one be lo, masta ace, slaughterhouse, 96-03 (especially 97-2000) Em, big l, pun, black star, common, 96-2000 outkast, Louis logic, wu, apathy, 96-03 reasonable doubt to black album jay, chino xl, PAC, big, prime ice cube/redman/canibus, kool g rap, rakim, tribe, de la, blu, gangstar, PAC, big, az, krs, atmosphere, early JMT, phonte, copywrite, jay electronica, fashawn, rass kass, j live, low-key, immortal tech on rev vol 2, Sean price, skyzoo, reef the lost cauze, chief kamachi, gift of gab, mf doom, guilty Simpson, Jean grae, cunninlynguists, lupe @ his best, invincible, BDkane, mid 90s bone thugs, brother Ali, blueprint, rhyme asylum…. Could go on for awhile. I agree j Cole is better than a lot of the newer emcees that make it onto the radio post 04, but that doesn’t mean he’s anything special. There are a ton of amazing slept on super duper emcees than most ppl have never heard of that would kill him in the mic booth. Cole @ his best can be solid but again a lot of those ppl I mentioned are much better.
Real heads, am I wrong?
You don’t gotta show us all your Hip-Hop card…we get it.
These lists of underground rappers (that are dope) don’t get you respect, seriously, this is nothing else than ”Look how many unknown MC’s I can name, I have knowledge and you retarded mainstrem fan not”.
All these so-called great new artists that you all constantly ride and overrate are corny man…this shit isn’t even hip-hop, it’s some bubble gum ass dub-step bullshit. It’s got all the makings of a trendy new song. The singing on the hook, the filtering of the voice, the electro-synthesizers and shit…all you niggas that are on the bandwagon of these new dudes, Cole, Drake, Kendrick Lamar, etc. You’re all gonna be frontin’ in 5 years like you were never a big fan of these niggas.
Yeah, Hip Hop only consists of stripped down boom bap beats with soul samples and a guy who raps about the struggle to it.
Hip-Hop consists of creativity and a certain element that you know when you hear. It doesn’t have to be conventional boom-bap shit. Bone Thugs are Hip-Hop for example, and it’s unlike any other kind of Hip-Hop. This is some cookie-cutter, gussied up, electro-synthetic, studio special effect heavy trash. It’s like, you can buy a burrito from Taco Bell and call it a burrito, but when you eat a real burrito from a actual taco stand in mexico it’s not the same. This shit right here is Taco Bell.
And listen, I love Jay-Z, I think he’s one of the dopest MCs in history. I even think J. Cole has the potential to be a really dope MC but as he stands right now he’s no different than 100 other guys who have talent but don’t have IT. All these new rappers have this certain psuedo-hip-hop, private school-raised, semi-suburban feel to it. It’s almost like a fraternity of young cocky ass rappers that are laughing their way to the bank while talking down to their listeners. It’s not REALLY Hip-Hop. I have yet to hear ONE person in a actual Hip-Hop setting listening or even mentioning J. Cole. I hear about J. Cole from the suburban dudes that learned about Hip-Hop from TV and the internet.
What the hell is a Hip Hop setting? Hip Hop is a culture that spreads far beyond your little block, street or neighborhood you reside in. Kendrick Lamar and J Cole are two of the few new artist that other artist like Nas, Jay, Andre 3000, Snoop, Jada Kiss and so on have given lots of respect to. J Cole is talented and makes great music. I understand you might not like and there is nothing wrong with that but when you do not like it because it falls out of the realm of what YOU think Hip Hop should be, then there is a problem. I continue to say it over and over again, the people in that claim to Love Hip Hop hold it to such predictable standards that soon the genre will loose any edge that it has over other music. Anything that sounds different does not suck it just means it is not for you…there is a distinct difference.
what the fuck is this?
-***** negative 5
It gets better with repeated listens, honestly.
think of ALL the other great rappers debut singles… now compare them to what we’ve heard from Cole’s album so far …
YUP. he’s average at best.
This was pretty Good…Nice Beat, Nice Concept, Even flow and decent verses…The appearance from Jay-Z did make me like the song a little more…Overall 4 out of 5
nice concept. haha song is about a watch.
It wasn’t a bad concept…Its basically sayin good bye to the broke life and hello to the good life but I would have rather him and Jay-Z kept it more #Hiphop…But I listen to music with an unbiased ear and this really isn’t as bad as people are making it out to be…Its a little above average overall but it isn’t perfect…
bitch take yo ugly ass pic of the fuckin website u durty lil bitch…fa i find u and maake u suck my cock til yo eyes pop out…BITCH
COOL !!!
I look at it like dis ever u buy it bootleg it or leave it on the shelf so y hate if u dont like it then u dont like it everybody is entitled to their own opinion.
Wack! not hating its just not what we use to of cole.
My dick in yo mouth was wack cock sucka
If this had Lil wayne’s or drake’s names on it, it would have 1 star rating. All you guys are fucking idiots. J. cole is OVERRATED.
Co-sign this. Everybody on J. cole’s dick nowadays
That’s right.
One song makes you forget everything J. Cole has done? He has made countless songs that are downright classics in my eyes. Plus this song isn’t even bad, he is basically saying time isn’t money because you can’t get that back, so while he’s in the rap game he will make the most of it. Since when has it become a sin to use talent to make money? You gotta be underground and unknown for the rest of your life? Pleaseee….
i like it. the haters can hate but theres no doubt this is hot.
haters get with it or get lost. Cole doin his thing even tho this song not the best
dis is a perfect radio song, some decent lyrics but its easy & simple..damn Cole dis and Can’t get enough shud’ve been ur two singles (but i know he had to wait on Jay’s verse)…any1 who thinks he sux needs to listen to Friday night lights and the Warm-up and then start talking#ColeWorldfh8ers
Professional reviews from listening session, aka people who know music descrive this as the following, “7. Mr. Nice Watch – Before Cole played “Sideline Story†he told us that the song was going to go straight into this song and when it arrived, the whole place was shaking. Oh my goodness. The bass for this song is ridiculous. The flow was incredible. Cole’s lyricism was straight fire. And Jay-Z? He killed it. This song was so good that all the bloggers yelled out, “PLAY IT AGAIN!â€. J. Cole laughed and said, “I’ll play it again as we leave the club.†I see this song being played at clubs in NYC as his anthem. It might be the hit of the winter! As I write this, it hits me that J. Cole might finally have a super-hit! A hit where the hip-hop world is truly going to recognize who Jermaine Cole really is. Cole also explained how Mark Pitts told him that Jay-Z is always late but always on time.”
This from someone who knows what they’re talkin about. U broke fools. smfh. #ColeWorld
PREACH!! #ColeWorld
Pardon me while I throw up…
I saw that review as well. Couldn’t agree more! Shit is FIRE! Throw up on yourself HATERRZZZZZZ!!!!!! bahahahahha ya’ll mad COLE runnin shittt!! lmao #WINNING
Jay the only thing worthwile about this.
Hahaha, Jay is awful in this, Cole kills him
Mr.Nice Watch is not talking just about a watch beening just nice listen 2 the song. Thats da problem wit alot of listeners people dont listen 2 music no more they just listen 2 the beat lyrics people pay attention to the topic of dicussion song cool cole still did good keep doing ur thingya dig.
Damn bro!! Cole used to be nice. Now he sounds like a Kanye/Drake/Big Sean hybrid. He use to be gutter style. He’s been commercialized
the unfinished Jay electronica demo has a higher rating than this…lmao.
LOL WTF is this shit? This sound like some lame dubstep track Kanye and Jay-Z were doing only instead of that gay fish, they put that lame J. Cole nigga instead. Fuck this bullshit, listen to Gucci Mane and Justin Bieber freestyles not this gay shit.
It’s Gucci Time!
Clown get their throat cut talkin like dat real motherfuckers dont say stupid shit like dat G code homie
fuck gucci u a clown 4 bein a fan of niggaz dat cant rap sound like pre school abc shit grow up lil nigga
Decent cuz of jay verse
Smh, let the haters have their moment Cole, you just keep on making classics. #coleworld
Nice beat, and jay z verse
Tough!
good track looking forward to the album
Love the hate
these dick heads sayin we just ride cole’s dick for the hell of it.. probably have no ears or something…en if we did am sure it wud have snapped off by now…COLE WORLD.
you sir are gay … did you read the shit you just posted ??? i’ll never respect a J.Cole fan again.
i knew that this dudes fans were gay, cause he aint all that lyrically.
not that great
unfortunate cuz i got respect for cole and jigga
i thought this would be great
guess hopes are too high
tryin to appease the masses too much with this trendy dubstep
stick to the real beats man
jigga verse is good though
abit to futuristic for me but dope none the less
This is Pig Shit!!!!!
If you’re over 20, and you still defend your opinions by calling people ‘haters’, you’re dumb and wack.
if you’re over 20 and you are still saying dumb or wack, you are in no position to be judging other people about anything
If you’re over 20 and on hip hop dx slandering hate at high school kids, get a fukin job! lmao pathetic
pretty much
This is Cracker Music!
Different… but nice after a few listens!
NOW WE KNOW WHY JAY-Z TOOK SO LONG TO SEND HIS VERSE TO THIS WACK SHIT…JUST LISTEN TO IT? YOU SUPPOSE TO SEND A VERSE TO THIS? J COLE IS NOT BAD BUT THIS IS SHIT.
different
I dont know why people say he sounds like 2pac or has has style of rapping 2pac… Jcole cant story tell on a track as good as 2pac… Fiction…. I still like Jcole.. 3/5
I fucks with it
Jay still killing the game at 41…..that’s crazy!!! Guess he is the M.J. of Rap
He’s got a gambling problem and thinks Kwame Brown has talent?
different.
, , ,
Sick dubby beat, Jay and Cole deliver a 5 star performance.
The only guys that wont feel this will be the old school heads that cant get to grasp with the fact its 2011 and shit changes.
here here
nah it just sucks
sounds like a old timbo beat…a scrapped old timbo beat, the album still sounds sik, this is the worst track on the lp, and ther i was thinkin this would be one of the best tracks 2011 lol
2/5
did that nigga say listen to gucci? and justin bieber freestyles…. and j coleis one the beststory tellers n the game
Am I the only one who realizes this is a club/radio track???? People have to realize that Cole needs songs like this to be commercially successful. The album can’t be full of I Get Up’s and Simbas if he wants to do well commercially. Would I and the rest of hiphop heads love an album full of I Get Up’s, Lost ones, and Simba type songs-YES!!! We would love it!! But ask yourself one question: Will Cole be able to sell records with an album like that???-NO. Lupe F&L is a Classic with no radio songs-but did it sell well??? No. People Calm Down. The album will have 4 radio songs (mr. nice watch, work out, in the morning, and can’t get enough)the rest of the album will be the Cole from the mixtapes that we love. We have to allow Cole to grow, he can’t stay underground forever. “Either you play the game or watch the game play you, and be that broke muthafucka talkin’ bout I stayed true.” Relax, Cole knows what’s he’s doing, the album will still be fire even with 4 radio songs on it.
exactly people are bugging
Listen to you man…stop being such an apologist. I used to apologize and justify shit that my favorite rappers used to do too, until I realized that the bullshit was insurmountable. It used to be that rappers made the shit THEY wanted to make, ’cause THEY were the artists. Then, it got to a point where you had to have one, maybe two songs that were radio friendly. We’re up to 4 now? And it’s this nigga’s first album? C’mon man…just admit it, these rappers aren’t as dedicated to the ‘art’ as you want them to be. These niggas just want a check. If it was cool to have Barry Manilow singing the hook, they’d have that nigga on every other song. There’s no integrity in Hip-Hop anymore. That doesn’t mean there’s no dope MCs, but even the ones that are dope are looking for their opportunity to go pop, believe me.
taht doesnt mean make a shity radio hit tho, he coulda man some better shit
I love Cole, I just get my vagina in a twist when people hate on him. I try to sound smart and influence others opinions because I have no life. Disregard me. Jermaine all day.
its sounds like niggas in paris, on steriods imo
you niggas must be crazy this shit is dope af…its different and its not supposed to be a real hiphop track cole will have enough of those on the album…this track was a smart move and it opens up to a whole different audience…i fuck with this 5/5 for sure
you do realize that every single he has released is a radio song right ? you people act like he’s been dropping fire tracks up until now.
hop off my dick…this shit is dope if you want his mixtape music go listen to his fuckin mixtapes…shit smh what the fuck do you want him to release stuff that wont get him radio play?? hell no the dude is playin his role smart and you dumb ass hiphop heads need to be more open minded towards the industry and how the shit works
Give this a few loud listens. Its fire!
Cole’s flow is sick on this n jay blessed the track. Stop the hating it ain’t going to get ya nowhere..
J coles second verse was ill and Jay-Zs verse was filled with entendres (what a surpise) allthough most of it didn’t rhyme. The chorus is eh the beat is good but nothing amazing and Cole’s first verse is bad. Overall its like a 3 maybe 3.5
Goin with 3.5 cause this song is addicting
This song is trash!
NIGGA’S LIKE THIS IS WHO EMINEM WAS TALKING ABOUT ON THE SLIM SHADY LP. THEY SAY THEY GONNA KEEP IT REAL WHEN THEY GET IN THE INDUSTRY, AND THEN THEY FLIP AND DROP A WHOLE BUNCH OF POP SONGS.
But they’re still lyrical and have meaning (In Em’s case).. So yes they arent as good but still. Same with Cole apart from a couple songs..
yea im just really dissapointed in cole. dont think im gonna buy the album maybe two or three songs that are good on the album. Selling out.
Disappointment Cole & HOV did not deliver…smh
Another pop song ? really Cole ? All this just to sell records ?
so much for a classic album.
MAN Get this donkey kong pt. 8 sounding shit outta here!
LOL.
Man this really dissapointed me…i thought J Cole would bring back that 90’s sound but this is really trash…fuck the lyrical content if the beat is fucked up like this here…
fan of both the artist on this track and when i heard it i was so disapointed this is nowhere near a star is born. cole was beyond weak and he waited all this time for jays verse and that joint was below his ability. come on man what were you too thinking. def know now wont b a classic 2
……really? wtf is shit shit.
man im honestly sad about this, after listening to cole for 2 years, so pumped for this dude. hearing all three singles, man. You dont have to do that, everybody thinks this is the formula selling out. WHAT YOU FEAR? failure? this is failure. haha hahaha maybe i went to far.
This could get some spins on the radio, but Cole’s lame chorus slows the tempo of the song down too much to really play in a club. It might work with a better chorus.
man FUCK this shit, drop some real shit this is your first album and its full of pop songs, wtf is that ???
COLE HAD THE NERVE TO COMPARE HIMSELF TO TUPAC AND HE STEADY RELEASING POP SINGLES. PATHETIC I HOPE HE FLOPS HARDER THAN ACE HOOD.
Tupac was the king of pop singles are u kidding?
^^^when did Tupac release pop singles ? like once or twice ? Brenda’s Got A Baby and Keep Your Head Up are not pop songs.
Pac made pop songs like how do you want it and all bout you
Hello Mr.Nice Watch no more Mr.Nice Guy
They say time is money but really its not
If we ever go broke then time is all we got
In u cant make that back you cant make that back so lets ball y we hear like aint no tomorrow aint no next year drink away all of owe problems make it rain wit no care like I make that back fuck it I make that back real shit 4 alot of u fack hip hop heads 4 stars its not the greatest cole release to date but its a good look I spin it
i don’t know why you guys are hating, it’s not like he said “expect a real deep song from me and jay-z”. this is not even the song he intended to have jay-z on. pretty sure the album has all the “deep hip hop songs” you guys are expecting.
REAL SHIT::::: Where is Coles agressiveness, lyrics? after hearing all these sell outs it makes me respect GAME even more. he may be the most aggressive mc right now. Cole has been weak and i maybe one of his first 50,000 fans, been listening to him for a while, dissapointed. where is his nas and pac inspiration, this is to much jay and kanye. to much be yourself. Fuck rocnation.
after listening to cole i used to love the lyrics but most importantly the aggresiveness, as of nas and pac. GAME may be the most aggresiv
Hahaha laughing at the most aggresive I dont care how aggressive game sounds dude sucks at rapping i was one of the few 90k people to buy the album one week later i used it as toilet paper
straight heatttttt for the whip and the club!!
Listen to watch the throne and think who put cole up to this shit… Jigga man is doing something different right now.
watch jay electronica change now? damn i’m jhust dissapointed.
there’s obviously gonna be pop songs on his album, its called singles, its not even that bad, the beat is a little electronic, but it still bangs. The flow on this song is really good from Cole. Don’t expect the whole album to be like this
okay … just heard it.
I was shocked when the beat dropped, I had to pause it for a minute, then I played it full and damn lol. Kinda disappointed
this sounds like some late Kanye shit, WTT leftover shit.
word
Hot track, you know that Jay would have a hot line.
AIM-LAY….. LIZZAME
LAME
where is loso’s way 2 rise to power album…? it shouldve dropped 13th septmber….??
This song is not that good…
2/5 dawg!!!!
Dear J. Cole,
Uh oh Cole, you dun dropped 3 songs in a row that not EVERYONE liked. Now, people are saying your album can’t possibly be a classic because those songs on it, including Light’s Please and In the Morning. It’s just impossible for the album to be even good. You’ve hurt a lot of people’s feelings Cole. You should really reconsider dropping this album man. THREE pop song? really? You know how many people you’ve pissed off? People were expecting that Tupac 1994 flow. And EVEN though you’ve done that for 3 mixtapes, this is your DEBUT…you should ONLY be doing Tupac inspired songs, not some shit you FELT like would be fun records to bump in the car–we dont all have good speakers Cole, we cant all bump this in the whip. I know what you trying to do though–make those radio hits, so more people by the album and get surprised by your deep songs, but you dun messed up man. You shouldnt be concerned about the radio and fun records–we need that heartfelt struggle music for all 1 hour and 20 minutes of the disc son. Stop playing with our emotions like this nigga–you makin us think you’re happy or some shit. We want the sad, broke down, hurt feelins Cole–not the rich, swaggin, nice watch Cole–even tho you earned that shit. Nah, fuck that son, your album can’t possibly be classic–i dont care what the other 14 songs I havent heard sound like.
Sincerely,
An emotional motherfucker
loool what a bitch
Dude, do you need a tissue? Artist don’t make music for you, they make for themselves. It just happens other people vibe with it. J. Cole probably doesn’t give a single F8(k about what you have to say. #Justsayin. You want 1994 Tupac? Go buy that album, troll. You act like J. Cole stood you up for a date… You are embarrassing..
Lol @ the two comments not seeing that that shit was pure satire…funny shit tho, J. Cole stans stay emotional
Lol at the two comments not seeing that that shit was pure satire. funny shit tho, J. Cole stans stay emotional
LOL at the two comments not realizing that whole shit was pure satire–he’s obviously makin fun of ppl hatin on this song–shit was funny
LMAO. I feel ya son. It’s only 3 radio songs (4 if you count in the morning) on the album. There is still over 10 songs on the album that will mostly likely be deep or emotional, or some simba type shit when cole is really spittin’. Honestly, they not even bad radio songs, but niggas act like Cole can’t have fun. Like he always got to be depressed or emotional on EVERY song or saying crazy metaphors all the time. Theses 3-4 fun songs will balance out the rest of the deeper stuff on the album, so I understand what Cole is doing. Who wants to listen to a whole album of “oh I’m so depressed”, “Life is a struggle”, “I’m a nigga from da Ville”-I don’t. I won’t mind if majority of the album is emotional and deep because that’s the Cole I relate to the most but I don’t want a whole album of that. Yes it would be a great album, but also depressing and sad. These fun songs bring balance to the album. Even if he had a whole album about emotional deep shit, niggas would still complain about how it don’t have fun songs/upbeat songs. Bottom line-Niggas always find something to complain about, no matter what you do.
Uh oh:
STFU U STUPID BITCH,GET OFF J. COLE’S NUTS YOU FUCKING COCK SUCKA!
you might be wisest kid, cole’s not producing shit like he did on the warm up. Now that is classic already, for real that mixtape is by far the best one even if its got some remixes of old joints. but ur just a wiseman
solid 4… better than most of the song on now. once u get past the beat the lyrics and on point and consistent…
btw dubstep is going to start taking over hip hop beats… just a fyi… example WWT “who gon stop me”
*WTT(watch the throne)
its cool……Jay did his thing……Cole kept up better than expected….a solid 3.5 to 4. The beat is HOT but seemed too much for this song.
Not really feelin’ any new Cole shit. For a while it seemed like the kid could do no wrong. Thank god for Section .80.
i feel u on that. he driftin too far from wut we use to n was lovin. nuthin wrong wit tryn new shit “if its dope”, but half this shit he releasin on this album is weak. his album dont look too promising..that section 80 thoo!!!!!
I didnt like section 80 i think it was above average at best but def leagues ahead of lil wayne and i dont really like cole on this song but jay kills so 3.5
http://www.mediafire.com/?i75xt5p26l71ttr ..Nixtape 4…
Uh oh
STFU U STUPID BITCH,GET OFF J. COLE’S NUTS YOU FUCKING COCK SUCKA!
Weak, quit with this dubstep.
Ain’t dubstep, it’s beauty.
That shit Cray!! 5 Stars!! The ROC BOYS MOVING FORWARD catch up !!
Man this song is growing on me after ever play.
Shit is too beast!Fuckkkkk!haha
Jay went in on this
Didn’t care for the hook, but the bars were on point
jay-z is definitely gettin at anybody who wants it! Jay-z is not playing!
They say time is money, but really it’s not/
If we ever go broke girl, than time is all we got/And you can’t make that back
Cole’s always dropping those words of wisdom. another great track, verses were a bit weaker in content but this wasn’t supposed to be a heavy track, so it’s still good.
In a sense it’s a contradictory statement. Time and money are both an illusion. Time and money are the two most valuable commodities in our society. Time and money both dictate the lives and decisions we make as indentured servants to the capitalist system. And you can make time back, by going within yourself, and gaining true wisdom, you defy time.
rawesome
good song.
different… but i like it. jay z is the king god daam
i got to fucking agree with you dude Hov kill anybody
Average…..
Average at best…..
if this is wat jcole ma nigga went to rock nation for….fuck all his new shiit…damn…3 stars
j.cole shoulda just stayed on the hook. let jay have all 3 verses.
RocNation = death of j.cole
jay-z rap as long as you fuckin want you hear me mother fucker
I wish this song was better……
jay killed it but cole was good but you cant judge his album from one song its plenty of albums that have songs that get better just beacuse you hear it along with the entire album.this is definitely a good start alot of you nned to look up the defin ition of avg and classic two overused words on the site
J. Cole = Most overrated of all time.
Jay raped this.
AMEN.
Hov gave him a throwaway and was still leagues ahead.
this is shit as compared to j. cole’s earlier shit.. and i am 45 seconds into the song!!!
Jay still the boss of this rap shit. Cole should’ve retired after that Blueprint 3 guest verse, he’s so fucking average. Mainstream version of Blu.
I just don’t get the hype around j cole and kendrick Lamar, as a whole they are extreamly average. Atleast kendrick can go hard at points but j cole is just plain overrated. Maybe listening to too much gucci mane and waka flocka flame and mac miller makes these guys look like gods. Hopsin > j cole
ye ye j cole aint got shit on hopsin
Wiz Khalifa > Kendrick Lamar
That is such a DUMB comment. UR such an idiot and clearly you don’t know anything about music!
hopsin is good but j cole and kendrick lamar have story telling that most rappers cant do now a days and cant relate to their music. sure they have some songs that are below their potential but i do agree hopsin is good though
This ain’t the best J. Cole has done. but hell, you can’t hate this guy after “Can’t Get Enough” – THAT SHIT IS A CLASSIC
This lil nigga dope wish I snatched him up before Jay
Good song. Hov is the GOAT
cole threw a curveball at us. 5stars tho. im buyin the album
WE HAVE TO REMEMBER JAY IS 40PLUS, THATS LIKE JORDAN STILL WINNIN CHAMPIONSHIPS WITH THE WIZARDS! THIS DUDE FLOW NEVER GROWS OLD. COLE IS A DOPE PRODUCER.5STARS
Didnt like it sooooo much ystday, but damn im feelin the shit today! i dont care watyu call urself, hiphop head or underground waeva. .u think u know shit but if u hate on this u dont kno shit! Y’all shud kno if this track is d dopest on the album it wont be released now. E’rthin you’v heard so far aint as dope as wat u’v not heard.
Sept27. .#coldworld. .hard titties!
Fire
fire!
Damn Cole, im dissapointed, not up to par to what this song shoulda been, no where close, and now ive heard 5 songs of the album already?
im still copin it, but i was hopin it’d be classic =/
y’all check out how Cole spazzed out on this power99 freestyle. .
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LMff9IENQ0Q&feature=related
dope shit!
Cole the Hottest out now. .no bipolar.
jay got him on this one easy.j cole seems to be dropping off slitly,beats are not as good apart from can get enought so far.remeber snog’s like return of simba,and killer ,so deep lyricaly forreal if i get this ablum and thier are no snog’s like that my feeling’s will be hurt deeply.kendrick came on the seen and droped a decent ablum,drake gona be taking them shots at the roc nation camp{j.cole} if he cant aleast go gold on sales i want my niggas to do well.
snogs growning on me j.cole sounding better then i though frist time.
jay freestyled his entire carreer he kept the song details and rhyme patterns in his head if that dont make him a legend i dont know what will
j cole need to holla at nas for a collabo
Nas is boring.. aint nobody checking for Nas.
Nobody checkn for Nas?? Pretty sure he one of the only artist who still droppn Classic albums && verses!! Untitled and his album with Damian was better than any mainstream artist u can name…
Thank you sir!! Nas collab will be better than Jay!!
Nobody, aside from a few delusional internet fucks, who still think it’s 1994, check for Nas.
Black Republican was beyond epic though.
fucking faggot rap fans.
rap got gay as soon as white boys started dissing niggas shit. FOR REAL.
there were down ass white boys in the early 90’s. in 2011, just about every rap fan with a computer is a dumb annoying faggot i’d like to punch.
nobody checks for nas? how about nobody checks for j.cole? lets see if anybody cares what j cole is doing 15 years from now. he hasnt even dropped his debut and niggas already hopping off the bandwagon. mediocre fag rapper, with fag rapper fans.
awsme 🙂
Listent o it,. dont just hear it,. listen to it more than 1 time. its a hot song,. the inro is nasty. and the hook is sick.. open your ears.
almost 30k spins, thats crazzy,. song is gravy.
im upset ive heard 5 songs off this album already though ,, i remember when jay released Kingdom come ,. he dropped lost ones,. show me what u got ,. kindom come on the same day,. but really 5 traxx already…smh
Yakov, outta 15 to 16 tracks u just heard 5. Dude u got like 10fresh burners comin ur way.sept 27..savin da best for last. #Coleworld . .turn the heat up!
Can’t get enough – Hot, lights please – hot. lost ones – hot. workout – hot, Mr. nice watch -hot , in the mornign – hot. hmmm,. could be a new classic on the horizon
workout was kinda wak…and this? idk its straight. not hot…aint really talkin bout much
you can never listen to a jay-z song one time and get it WTT is a monster i forget kanye on it sometimes
j.cole 2-6 in dis
bish wit hov
Yall calln this shit classic? Soundz like a filler track.
Niggas said Hova was ova, such dummies
Even If I fell I’ll land on a bunch of money
Ya ain’t got nothing for me
meh…nothing special. reminds me a lot like “Niggas’ in Parris” by Kanye and Jay…
Wasn’t looking forward to tracks like this on the album but I guess you gotta make a couple tracks to please some people who are all about bumping “that shyt” and money talks.
3/5 I guess. I need tracks like “Unobomber”, “farewell”, “Welcome”, “before im gone”, “enchanted”, “the autograph”, ect.. Cole can’t be wasting trax like this one…spitting nonsense, talkin bout nothing.
But I guess…still can’t wait! Cole World!
shut the fuck up. this song is a celebration that he’s made it big and Jay is passing Cole the torch. Cole’s never been about that flashy shit but he’s allowed to now that he made it. He’ll always have meaningful tracks and he can’t ONLY do those deep tracks….he’s gotta be well rounded…let him celebrate with Hov and quit crying because you arent used to this sound from Cole
Don’t cry for me Argentina, I mobbed the beamer
Took trips abroad, got mobbed in Sardina
In Ibiza I had pizza in the club
Ladies know I’m that guy, they wanna piece of my love
Now they wanna ya boy like Mike in his prime
Billie Jean the goddamn boy ain’t mine
And the Roc break up, had the people losing hope
Can’t lie they had Muhammad Hovi on the ropes
Now I’m back in the go mode, back in the go-go’s
Throwing the diamond up, repping the logo
Rose gold rose flow, I’m okay though
What Don’t kill me makes stronger than before so
Here we go and I’m not domino
When it all falls down, I’m like Kanye’s jaw
I might break but I don’t fold, till I hold the sky in my hand
Yeah that’s my goal
And then I bid you Freddy Adu
Prodigal Child, y’all not ready for the future
Then I disappear in the Bermuda Triangle
My name will be viewed such
Here’s to the man that refused to give up
I want the sky nigga, Chuuuuuuch
To the haters—shut the fuck up. this song is a celebration that he’s made it big and Jay is passing Cole the torch. Cole’s never been about that flashy shit but he’s allowed to now that he made it. He’ll always have meaningful tracks and he can’t ONLY do those deep tracks….he’s gotta be well rounded…let him celebrate with Hov and quit crying because you arent used to this sound from Cole
i havent worn a watch since like 2002. cell phone is my watch. good track tho
ur broke
UH OH I HEARD TWO SINGLES NOW COLE WORLD IS STARTN TO LOOK LIKE ITS GONNA SOUND LIKE L.A.S.E.R.S.
LOL!! Lasers? Fuck outta here mayne. Lasers got any tracks as dope as Lost Ones, Lights Please? Fuck noooo.
Out Of My Head and Can’t Get Enough are similar tracks…both feature Trey Songz. Big difference is Cole flows his ass off and has dope punchlines and the chorus isn’t corny.
This beat>>>>>Anything on Lasers. and it’s not corny like Lasers mainstream joints.
Not to mention all the other deep tracks we haven’t heard yet.
Nice try though.
ahem … garbage at best.
1 star, im not gonna lie my ass off like other fans just because of the artists on the track.
im a j.cole fan but, fuck your watch. this shit lame cole. you trippin. first album and you got money going to your head already. at least wait til album 2 for some dumb shit like this.
Its not about a watch…listen to the song…thanks, your brain
Are people still really rocking watches? Switch it to Mr. Nice Phone, hah!
dope song, Jay rode the beat better though.
nope that the one
Had to give it a few spins. The verses are sick. Beat is fresh, different, but fresh.
http://www.getbentswag.com/
This song isnt really about Cole bragging about the $ he now has. It is sooo much deeper than that. In the chorus he says “It cost me a lot , my chain & my watch.” He is not talking about cost as in $. He is talking about the cost of time & effort he has had to put in/wait for this moment to finally come so he could get his Roc chain. That is why he then says “they say time is money but really its not” bc in this song he is not talking about money he is talking about the time its taken him to get here.
Thats what I like about Cole songs is that you really have to dissect and listen over and over before the real meaning makes sense. Dont think Cole is selling out on us…Cole World still gonna be a crazy ass album!!!
i like deep hiphop, shit you have 2 listen to again and again, but end of the day, music is meant to be fun and give me a messege, or a certain feeling, i dont listen to music thinkin im going to have 2 decipher the fukin track
cole is sik, all his mixtapes were sik and ill be listening to them for a long fukin time, but this track, no……iv listened to all the snippets and this sir, is easily the worst track on the lp
cole world 2/5
thats why you have rappers and MC’s and very few are both
I agree with buddy who said hes talkin about “it cost me alot” as in releasing them mixtapes & getting recognition and gettin to where he is right now.
But nonetheless, this song is dope. Stop hating, this is Cole & Jay’s FIRST collab. They’re bound to have more. No doubt.
I give this song 4/5
The beat is sick. Cole’s rhymes & hook arent bad at all. & Jay-Z’s verse just put the finishing touches on it. Gave it what the beat needed.
Did they not collab on “A Star is Born”? Not the strongest song, but it’s still better than this.
Yes sir they did collab on A Star Is Born off the Blueprint 3.
But Jay-Z had 3 verses on that track & Cole had one short verse. But that song is still dope.
Cole World. J Cole is underrated.
POOR SONG STRUCTURE, DUDE TRYING TO HARD. HOOK IS A SNOOZER. YAWNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN.
wud be better if i hadnt heard niggas in paris
cole world some deep shid here
Kinda sounds like Kanye on the hook, not a bad thing. This song is sick, flows are dope, Jigga kills it like always. Cole World Mr Freeze
THIS IS HOTT!!!! BEAT IS MAD CRAZY…I LOVE IT…
THIS IS HOTT…THE BEAT IS MAD CRAZY!!!! I LOVE IT…
This shit is hot. If yo fucktards cant identify with real shit go back to your wack shit somewhere elase.
ColeWorld 09/27, cope that classic shit.
This is classic shit.
Cole World 09/27.
“No more Mr.Niceguy hallo Mr.Nice Watch”

hot song.
I cant wait for the album
09/27 Cole World
I’m just listening to WarmUp,The Come Up, and Friday Night Lights, I got those albums(mixtapes) on repeat on my ipod.
Now I can’t wait for the full album.
Wayne,Gucci,Wacka n all the wack rappers step aside.
wow. cole’s weakest work by far!
reminds me of this one:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4t6sTR1YJuI
Cole’s weakest still better than most wack rap shit out there right now.
This track aint weak, just clean your ears n listen. if you just looking for catchie shit go listen to Lil Wayne.
This shit is tight than a mufk.
Cole World
Jay z is taking shots at wayne on this. This go hard,
this must have been recorded b4 the wayne diss… i don’t see how he’s dissing wayne… nothing specifically can be pointed to wayne or cash money… is it cause he says ‘ya’ll’ smh
Cole World
09/27 Thats wsup!
Only for the real hip hop fans, not some wack shit, not some lip kissing rap.
Got get this one for real.
The only new rappers that I listen to J Cole, K Lamar, B.o.B, Frank ocean, Jay Electronica, Wale, Big Sean. Will listen to Drake shit if/when he leaves Cash Honeys.
Am out
u should def check out mac miller, just got into his music and im DIGGIN IT
yaaaaaaaaaaaaaawn
This shit crazy mang!Too sick boii
Album is too crazy!

Cole went hard like always.
Cole World 09/27
absolutely terrible
First Comment. Sweet!!!!!!! 🙂
5 niggas
I don’t even read these comments full of jealous, bitter fans or non fans that will never be anything or create anything worth rating.
Now that the album on the way, and its time to REALLY support “real hip-hip” all yall fake ass “real hiphop” fans abandoning J-cole, typical. Meanwhile Lil Wayne just sold damn near a million. Sold more than Eminem and royce! Sold more than Jay and Kanye. You fans are fucking ridiculous! Fucking fakes!
legit banger. fuck dem haters. it’ll grow on yay
im hoping the album is a lot better than i think its gonna be, because from what i heard its kinda ehhh. It’s cool, i still support the dude. drop another friday night lights man
3/5
Cole doesn’t want to be boxed in as a back pack rapper who only makes serious songs. he branched out on this one. The hate just means hes makin it big. hate on. He’s still the same Cole, you know he gonna have deep joints on his album. Gotta have a wide range of songs (deep, meaningful tracks, radio/club joints, brag rap, songs for the ladies)to be considered a legend like he wants to be. hes on his way
different is good, better than lil wayne same shit over & over.
cole world > c4
Hell yeah bro! Cole World No Blanket!
Dis shit hot
Cole World!
Cole World!But Im Hot A Shit
Cole gonna have a classic the Young Money fans here just hatin lmao
Man i dnt see y all the hating.. the more u play this u realize its dope.. u guys into all that catchy shit go buy a lady gaga CD and get the fuck out a here.. u got listen to really get this song.. #coleworld 9/27
Man this song is maddd far betta thn all the crap im hearing.. im gettn 3 copies of this album. one for my ride, one for my house and one to educate yall nigga that dnt knw talent.. #coleworld..
This song is bumping mayn.
Hot shit, ColeWorld 09/27
Solid track. 4 Stars. It kind of reminds me of the “Nigga What Nigga Who” track from Jay-Z on the Hard Knock Life album
Way to not show up on your own song j cole! I was really liking cole and the new stuff but the dude only rhymes about hoes and money… THATS IT!!!
WE DONT NEED ANOTHER FABOLOUS MAN AND BTW FAB DOES IT WAYYY BETTER THAN COLE DOES IT!
listen to Show Me Something, See World, Losing My Balance, Can I Live, Farewell, Killers,Pass Me By and Lights Please you uninformed conclusion-jumping fuck.
“but the dude only rhymes about hoes and money”
HAHAHA! That’s ignorant as fuck!!!
I’m sure the songs Dollar and a Dream 3, Sideline Story, Nobody’s Perfect, Never Told, Rise and Shine, Breakdown are all about hoes and money.
Lights Please and Lost Ones have meaningful lyrics.
Ignorant ass fool.
This Goes Hard! plz stop the hate and support the freshman’s, he’s the future
NICE TRACK…
Cole Fucking World……fck tha other sides…they got a table full of fellas ..chyeah!
September 27!
COLE WORLD THE SIDELINE STORY
shit ill, going to get mad play on the radio
No it won’t dude. This dude couldn’t make a hit song to save his life.
Cole wasn’t trying to make a hit with this. It says FUCK in the chorus. It’s still going to get lots of play on sirius uncensored radio stations. Cole doesn’t need a top 40 pop hit to hit it big. he’s already made it. dude will debut at numero uno
Seeing people turning their backs on cole just confirming he’s doing GOOD!!! its not like he wont do “it wont be long” “i get up” type of songs. but he gotta expand…as the biggest cole fan i totally understand
and this should be a SINGLE!
FIRE!!!
yea its cool, jay looked out and killed it and cole made a radio trax which i hope he drop a video asap
listen to it like 5 times, my new fav song
i love j.cole but this song is gay
yOU DAMN RIGHT!
amen brotha
http://neonlimelight.com/2011/09/16/album-preview-j-cole-cole-world-the-sideline-story/
its ben real yall
The internet is a funny tool for music because it forces us 2 listen 2 rapper demos. Cole is in artist development but he’ll find his sound.
listened to it 5 times in a row shit iz fire the beat iz crazy don’t understand the hate –
yo “it cost me a lot , my chain and my watch” dnt kno if im diggin to deep into it but i think he’s talking about his freedom and shit cuz he sold his freedom for that shit
where are the new tracks for any given sunday???
ITS MONDAY NOW…..
??
Sucks ass!
I knew he would go gay… singing?? I love Cole… as for this? I think I’ll stick to Friday Night Lights until Detox drops.
i dont really like this track, one of his weakest in my opinion, but singing?? cole sings on alot of his tracks, alot of his best track he sings, obviously i prefer his rapping but whatever…..let the nigga sing if he wants 2 sing
rise and shine
I don’t what songs have you been listening to because before even got signed J.Cole was singing on his tracks….
fucking awesome, jay z the best
haha detox??? supposed to drop 10 years oago that shit aint comin out
i agree jays killed it
hot as shiiiiittt
the future is here.
smooth all around. This is a certified banger. Gonna be all over the clubs
yo this production is bananas by the way. it’s perfect production. very crisp.
Killed it!
5 STARS REALLY DOPE,CANT WAIT FOR THE ALBUM TO LEAK IN 2-3 DAYS BITCHES STRAITE TO MAH IPHONE
WTF… nigga get the fuck out a here no bootlegs bitch we buying that album 9/27.. whos with me??
^^^ crickets
Cole World but Im hot as shiiiiiit, do that mean I’m bi-polar??
HOT!
Different sound ya’ll aint used to hearing from Cole. Dont get butthurt that it’s not a deep, thought-provoking song with a dark beat. it’s a celebration, bitches! Cole made it BIG!!!
“50 told me to switch my style up, and if they hate, then let em hate and watch the money pile up.”
cole isnt that hott to me.. no way this and that song with the latin beat are two of the hottest songs out right now.. im guessing dx just pushes who they push..
Not hating, but J. Cole will flop. He’s a certified beast lyrically, but his songs ain’t banging. He FINALLY gets Jay to drop a verse and it’s weak as shit.
did u hear jays verse!?!
go read the lyrics it obviously went over ur head
weak my ass read the lyrics then talk
Ummm… whoever said Jay’s verse is weak, you may need to look at that shit in writing, because it’s going over your heads. But what else should I expect from a generation that thinks everything Wayne touches is gold.
Seconded.
Whether or not his songs are “banging” is a matter of opinion. His rise in just a few short years from an underground artist to a chart-topper speaks for itself. Be prepared for an ear-load of Cole world in 2012 and beyond
I don’t know man. I think I was expecting more. The production is aiight, not the heat I was waiting for. Not that “timeless” sound, at least not for me anyways. Don’t get me wrong, I can fuck with this, but will I listen to this in 2021?
This is probably the weakest song on Cole’s album. The Blueprint even had a weak joint…”Jigga My Nigga” is very weak. This song is doper than that.
Cole World
Terrible, terrible, all the hype for this? terrible.
“Put the front on the back of the back like a boss, so I’m frontin’ on niggas when I’m backin’ off…” o_O Damn Jay.
that was a hard verse
J. Cole the Future!!!
This is the weakest song on Cole’s album, but it’s still a TOP NOTCH HIP HOP DEBUT. The Blueprint is a classic and it has a very weak song on it AKA Jigga That Nigga. This song is weak for Cole but it’s still DOPE and it’s serving its purpose and it’s better than Jigga That Nigga.
Cole did it. He really did it. He made it big!!
Relax, it’s a 3.5/5 tops.
I downloaded the album a couple hours ago . That shit is classic , best album of the year easily. Can’t wait for the next album next year. Even though I downloaded it. I’m still going to buy it on tuesday out goes too hard not to have a real copy
not the best on the ablum
fire!
this song is hot..what stood out was jay verse though…after you listen to it a couple times it’ll hit you…shit was fire…decent and DIFFERENT track….so much for an artist stepping outta the box and trying a different sound..lyrics are still on point
Lil Wayne is the pennacle of rap Godliness. Drakes music is better than this guys.
Wayne is soft, hes like samuel jackson of rap hes always makin songs but they suck
^^^yo girl made my black snake moan
nigga get your “worship the almighty Wayne” lookin ass outta here..
anyone who listens to wayne is either high or retarded. c4 was garbage. drake is soft. cole has album of the year so far so dont hate.
^^^Album of the year? I wouldnt use that bullshit as a coaster
That jay z verse was WEAK. YMCMB out here ending niggas careers. First lil kim. Jigga man next
Honestly nigga….fuck outta here…YMCMB make good kommercial unrealistik ass songs..That Carter 4 was weak and anyone who dont take it in the ass know that…he made some songs nigga kan hum and get high to but lyrically he aint fuckin with The Roc
This isn’t even a subjective thing. If you don’t like Jay-Z’s verse on this song, you are not only wrong, but you are stupid.
Yaaaaa buddy fireeee
Cole World > Section 80. Why? How? Kendrick is great at rapping, but cannot make songs like this and Can’t Get Enough. Cole’s ability to make a wider range of songs is why Cole’s album is better. Also, In The Morning showcases Cole’s ability to make mainstream songs that are still clever, catchy and lyrical. Kendrick and Cole both have deep shit. That’s all Kendrick has right now though. Cole has more range.
Hell no
Even though I know you’re just copying and pasting this onto various J. Cole songs, it’s okay, since I agree with your points.
But….You Wait
J Cole has alot of releases
K. Lamar still blowing up
Not all that.It ok

nice!!!!!
dope
YMCMB = Yall Mad Cole Much Better
Swag
Okay, so far on on track 10 of this album, This track has been the worst so far, by far. IMO 1 star.
i hope you meant Mr Nice Watch is the worst by far… track 10 Lost Ones is unreal
candidate for worst song on the album.
its alright, needs a better beat
All yall wayne dick riding faggots needa get off his dick yall might as well sit there with ur mouths open so he can jizz inside em… THAT NIGGA SUCKS! HE FELL OFF! he is the reason rap is as wack as it is right now so FUK OUTTA HERE… n J Cole aint bringin it back but hes ight hes trying only problem is he sound n act just like drake
Lmao sound like Drake hahaha funniest shit ever fuck outta here bro dey way diffrnt, lyrically & flow Cole murders Drake brah.
GARBAGE sounds like some techno bullshit come on cole you can do way better!
perfect song for the radio..catchy..lyrics are straight,beat is amazing!cole world. i pray dis dude goes platinum! he deserves it
cole found a hit!
cole world!!! yo plz even tho the album leaked…plzz plz plz go buy it..show support!
thanks for the free music, album aint that great so i wont purchase it.
Eat shit faggot
jay z is a very smart man. i’ve got a lot of respect for that nigga. he dumbed down for his audience to double his dollars. this song is the epitome of his success. this song sounds hot with no thought and you people eat up this slop.
true
J Cole is ill… point blank but yall need to try this product called hot squeeze… go visit http://www.thehotsqueeze.com it’ll change your life
How does Lil wayne and drake get mentioned in every J Cole Song in the comments really even on u Tube everyone is Cole WOrld>>>>Carter 4 shit man everyone will be a gotdamn liar if at one point u didn’t like lil wayne Carter 2, even 50 cent Get rich or die trying, Kanye west college dropout, Ja RUle Pain is love, at one point every one like these niggas once in their life time but then shit gets old and we go on to summone else, even eminem lost it and came back, same with Jay Z Black album was a classic now every one says he sucks
College dropout is still a great album. Never liked the others. Cole is solid and shouldnt be compared to lil wayne.
Cole world , the album is sick. Better than anything out there. Can’t wait for tuesday. Regardless of what it sells, its gonna be the best album of the year by far . Yall niggas hated before you played it but I already forgave ya!!!
Cole’s debut is DAMN GOOD. Best mainstream rap album in awhile along with My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy.
He’s getting big so a lot of people are hating with little to back up their outlandish statements. It’s quite amusing.
Cole is only going to keep progressing now that he’s got his feet wet with one album. He’s got the hang of it now.
Also, Kendrick’s Section .80 isn’t better than Cole’s debut. Some songs on Section .80 are chores to listen to. Dude isn’t as well-rounded as Cole. He’s over my head you say???? yeah fucking right. Nice try. What other rapper is putting out deep tracks like Lost Ones, Dollar and a Dream 3, Breakdown, Never Told…and then making catchy but still lyrical hits like Can’t Get Enough, Mr. Nice Watch and In The Morning? Ya’ll can think he’s better because he’s not as mainstream, and it’s cool (and very easy) to hate on those who are bigger and getting more attention.
Cole World
and your opinion has never counted.
Cole is crazyyyy
follow me on twitter @jennkydiaz
Cole is my BOY …but this shit was very DISAPPOINTING
i agree 100%…. Cole is the future heart and soul of Hip Hop
KiLLa seazon > KOLe werld
Cole got the flames.
this will tear up the clubs.
Hov blacked out on this track. J.cole did his thing. Hot track 5/5
this dude really does look like he WANTS dick. Way to pull off the gayest expression ever
SMOOTH CLUB BANGER…
i hated this song first time i heard it but this shit grew me
straight outta scarface ..Say hello to Mr. Nice Watch! Cole World Bitches chyeah!!!
i like this song y nikkaz hatin on it its dope,album is not a classic could have been if he had couple of those songs on there with drake out

YEA DAT NIGGA JAY WENT IN HEAVY ON YOUNG MONEY I FUCK WIT WAYNE ND DRAKE BUT BABY NAW I DONT FUCK WIT….. JAY Z IS YALL FAVORITE RAPPERS RAPPERS
Dope track. Been following Cole for a couple years now, glad he’s making some shit that bangs. Jay killed it too
Ive listend to it once, didnt like it.Thought ther collab would b epic. This Is not epic.
This would of been a hit in 2004. It’s got a catchy flow but it’s still lyrical. Sadly, radios only play cheese ball repetitive garbage like Roll Up and Black & Yellow.
Stop listening to the radio.. Subliminal messages is all it is..
Choose what u hear.. burn music or mp3 player.. the radio is a tool.. like BET..
There’s one reason why people don’t like this song – They don’t understand it. This is a f*cking amazing production and the two rap personalities on this works perfectly.
Listen closer for more than your mundane expectations of some street dude talking shipping crack cocaine.
so what are they talkin about Joe???
http://www.rapgenius.com
No need to guess what an artist is talkin bout no more…
Jay should’ve gotten on God’s Gift, that would’ve been a lot more epic…it’s not a bad song but it’s not an outstanding one either…just meh
support Cole World on Tuesday so he can keep making great music. Cole WOrld!

listen to “Blue Eyed Beast”
you’ll love it.
This is radio ready, but we will see! And Jay Z verses on many songs are not getting the credit they deserve.
Eminem being named King of HIP HIP instead of Jay Z is like Jerry West being “the logo” instead of Michael Jordan.
Eminem being named King of Shit Hop is like the execution od Troy Anthony Davis amidst overwhelming doubt and underwhelming evidence.
Eminem Being named King of “Hippie Hop” is like how Elvis ursurped the music and style of African American’s only to be crowned King of Rock and Roll… and no he didn’t deserve it.
Eminem Being named the King of Hip Crock is like when old ass Huckabee and stupid ass Palin almost won the presidency.
Eminem Being named King of Bitch Pop is like how when you look in a history book, the pages documenting contributions of African American’s to this country seem to be conveniently torn out or stuck together.
Eminem Being named King of Hip Mock is like when Taylor Swift beat Beyonce for that Best Video Award
dont worry kanye beat her up
everyone knows album sales dont mean shit if they do than nelly is 2nd best rapper behind eminem.
here are some guys that are better than eminem album for album
1.nas
2.jay
3.big
5.pac
6.common
7.black thought
8.q-tip
forgot lupe
Actually Nelly is #6…Em #2 and Pac #1
Eminem is not way wacker than anyone on this list…And Eminem is the biggest selling rapper of all time over tupac…..marshall mathers lp sold 1.6 miliion in its first week…I am black btw…..he dusted Jay-z on renegade..he dusted them dude on forever etc etc. I don’t think Em is the best but he deserves respect….no one flowed like he did back in the day..remember when he got on the “dead wrong” beat with biggie..other rappers tried to record verses to it..but they werent as good..back when hi my name is came out what other mainstreamer was flowing like that and guilty conscous forget about it
Eminem has more rhyming skills, than all of the rappers you named, combined.
”Lose Yourself” >>> Nas’ discography.
Not a fan of this dude but he’s not bad, I like K.DOT better. Hands down this song is pretty weak, and the production sucks. I’ll give his album a listen and see what the verdict is.
this beat is psychotic, who did it
cole
J. Cole did it himself
So many haters. This song rides hard. I love it
lets get real if someone goes at em their career is done this is not even arguable
cargo shorts for life
song kinda grew on me, kinda refreshing to hear something different
Eminem being named King of R.I.P Hop reminds me of the book “To Kill A Mockingbird” when black Tom Robinson is falsely convicted of raping a white woman(and later killed) when a white man really did it.
NICE
so last week,there was a dude commenting cole’s songs n he was sayin it will be a miracle if cole does 1oo thousand da frst week!?!?! i wanna see what that nigga’s next comments are gna be about now?? comparing cole to big sean n the game like this nigga cole didnt shut the internet down wit friday night lights?? prokections are sayin cole will do 250 thousand the first week n WILL be number 1!!!..BUMM ASS NIGGA!!
did i mention he was also sayin coles fanbase isnt like a drake fanbase yet n hes overrated!?!?! really???
classic!
Love it…….anybody talkin shit about this track doesn’t listen to music they just skim through it!
COLE WORLD – North Cack Represent!!!!!!!!!
Cack=Cock
“Sideline story” is the truth. Probably the illest track line for line I’ve heard on the album.
believe it or not thats the only track he didnt write on the whole album
THE ILLEST
NICE!!!!!!
Anyone with a list that puts Jay-Z before Biggie and Pac is retarded. Jay NEVER carried Biggie on his back. He continues to steal his lines to this day. Watch the Throne has countless Biggie lyrics. By the way, Pac is ALWAYS #1 and Eminem is whack.
I’m pretty you CAN count how many times he uses a “Biggie” line in WTT. They were High School friends so… yeah if any does it, it should be Jay-Z. #justsayin. You are emotional, if you don’t like the song cool, that has nothing to do with how Jay-Z measures up to Late Greats. smh
i love too see you account for the lines cause its not true and pac is one of the greats but eminem is top 5 as well but if you werent bias you would see and understand that
Eminem is your top five but not mine.
Saying that Eminem is whack took any validity that MIGHT have been there away from your statement. Eminem is, in fact, one of the most technically gifted rappers of all time, you dumb fucktard.
DONT LET ME GET IN MY ZONE, DONT LET ME GET IN MY ZONE ~ sounds like that.
Cole is the IT rapper right now. No one touching him even when he dumbs down his raps. He out raps Kanye when he aint even trying.
This song is trash,real shit.

It’s not exactly what I thought it’d be but still a pretty solid track….don’t know why people are hatting
Thos song is sick. did you guys notice Jayz verse how he was talkin about time in every line?!?!?! Jay is SICK WITH IT
I fucks with this beat. Yo..all my sneaker heads out there check out my fb. I do the sickest one of a kind hand painted shoes.Check out my mobile uploads..designs starting at 50$.ANY THING U WANT I CAN DO! Get at me..site comin soon
Everyone hates on this, but it’s grown on me. I think it goes over a lot of peoples heads. Should check out complex’s article with Cole explaining each song.
Damn, Jay is so fucking sick with words.

JAY Z IS A FREEMASON
SPREAD THE WORD
after that ima spread your moms legs
LOL!….I think people have the wrong perception about masons. I know tonnes of masons in my own town. They are nice, law abiding people. They also contribute a lot to charities. The masons are a fraternity; a brotherhood. Nothing more people! People need to relax with all the hysteria.
J Cole looks likes hes trying to set the world record for longest breath exhale in that pic. He had to be on at least 3 minutes at that point.
If Cole knew Hov was gonna lay a verse he should have re-written BOTH his verses! A yo Cole, I don’t know what you doing to get Hovs cosign but you better step yo game up!
Man ya still talking about this song…
fuck it i’ll give it a five just for the hell of it lol.

This song is growing on me not gonna lie
yeaaaaaaaaaahhh
This really grew on me. I thought it was so wack on the 1st listen.
Jay always been the most intelligent with words. Nobody’s fucking with his wordplay. Breath Easy is one of the best tracks of all time.
did you just say jay z is the most intelligent with words? wow. he doesn’t even spit anymore. I don’t even know what to call that. you should really start listening to hip hop
Jay, Nas, Kanye, Lupe and Common are the only mainstream artists I listen to. Everything else is straight underground, so your response doesn’t make any sense here.
jay-z greatedt alive period you fucking eminem dick riders

Renegade exists.
