shon.

As a Cole fan since The Come Up I strongly disagree. All of those so called beefs besides the Diggy beef he tried to show them his POV and in many ways look out for them . People just love drama so they kept turning it into other things. Noname walked back her statement after realizing she was wrong. He sat down with Lil pump and and tried to talk to him. Kanye linked up with Cole and said "no more beef"( he later switched up on him again) What makes them different from the Diggy beef ? Those were after 2014FHD album , where his mindstate shifted and he said he wanted to spread love He wants smoke but not in the sense you're looking for. What would that say about the messages in his albums as a collective? Wouldn't he be contradicting his own bodies of work by engaging in beef especially with someone he views as a true friend? We don't know what would happen if he really had smoke with someone. Did he make a misstep with 7 min drill ? In his eyes it seems so. Him retracting it was him making amends for that and trying to stay true to his message on Note To Self. Everybody dies was him addressing the old school rappers who were hating on the new sounds and waves ( gate-keepiny) and also trying to show the young artists they need to elevate their game and do more than just talk about bread ( i.e him playing the role of middle child ) Also not sure if you understood the real message behind false prophets alot of people seem to neglect that 3rd verse. I think you should listen to it again. It actually translates to what he did by apologizing and not giving a F what anyone thinks. MDL is a collection of random songs where he does brag but he also speaks on things like not really having opps and just wanting his respect on Stickz and Stonez. PI talks about him wanting to venture into the den of lions and rap with the best. There's more than just braggy bars. But I get it , everyone looks at things differently and you're entitled to your opinion but so are the rest of us. One thing you don't need to do is get on here and try to flaunt your knowledge of Cole like that makes you understand him better than everyone else. Some of us just view it differently. Now you can go through my page and call me a D rider , do what you gotta do if that makes you feel better ✌️
