J. Cole – ‘Nothing Like It’
J. Cole did this thing with this freestyle joint right here. Maybe I’m getting old or something, but I still believe for the type of artist J. Cole is he curses way more than is necessary in his music. He’s not M.O.P., but his body count with the cursing is pretty high. I think he needs to stay passionate with his verses but I can tell he throws in the curses in an overt attempt to delivering an memorable line or two. Rakim didn’t curse alot but you still felt his verses & he was still gangsta nonetheless. If Ra cursed too often we may not have considered him one of the greatest ever because the message would have gotten lost in the profanity. Be passionate but don’t underdo it. Settle in but don’t force it. Maybe I’m wrong, but if I am please excuse my old man rant. In any case J. Cole did his thing with this joint right here though.
