As Ab-Soul makes the press rounds in support of his new album Do What Thou Wilt (DWTW), he sat down with the hosts of The Breakfast Club to discuss a bevy of topics, but one of the most exciting revelations during the 26-minute interview was that the mythical J.Cole and Kendrick Lamar collaborative album is, in fact, still underway, and that Soulo himself recorded a verse for it.
When Charlamagne Tha God asked him if he had a verse on the collaborative record, Ab-Soul replied, “I can’t speak on that. I wish I could. These guys, they move like the mob. You never know with these guys … I don’t know too much about it. I just hope they use my verse.”
Charlamagne, who was apparently unsatisfied with his answer, prodded him a little more and asked, “But there is a Kendrick-Cole album?” to which Ab-Soul responded, “They got it. They got something in the works. They’ve been working on that muthafucka for a while.”
While it’s unclear when this project — which has been teased since as far back as 2012 — will actually see the light of the day, in the meantime, J.Cole’s new record, 4 Your Eyez Only, can currently be consumed here while Ab-Soul’s latest project, DWTW, is available for stream here.
Watch the full interview below.
Screw Cole and Kendrick, they’ll probably name it something stupid like J. Lamar or Kendrick Cole or Ken-J LaCole or J-Drick ColeMar, like collaborations between already established artists always do. I do remember hearing about this awhile back and it was intriguing, because at the time these 2 were still relatively underground guys. it reminds me that Yelawolf and KRIT once spoke of a collaboration called Country Cousins that I actually WOULD like to hear someday.
J Drick ColeMar lmao
K&J Dot
Probably some publicity stunt. This shit been going around for a few years and soulo just looking to cash in.
They are both so over rated. Sad to say drake shits on them both and is the king of rap. Dave east will replace these bozos in two years tops
some people should jst keep quiet cause thy don’t knw shit about rap and thy cn’t b critics,who sys Drake is a bettr rapper thn Cole and Lamar?
