So what.....Did Food & Liquor do 150k first week?

Its 2 different conversations. J. Cole isn't as talented of a rapper as Lupe. And he's not as popular as Eminem or Drake. Both, Boom implied.

Smh.....watever. Give Cole some time to grow a little and build a stronger fan base. He might not do 150k+ first week, but he will def surpass that when his 2nd album drops.

No doubt, his fan base is huge now, but it got room to grow. I have no problems with cole, I love his music. I just think his fans need to let him progress as a rapper, before they start calling out that savior of rap shit, cause that just sets up niggas to fail.

I agree, but he has the potential to be a better overall rapper than lupe and just as popular as Drake & Em. All Cole needs is that smash single and he will do numbers.

In terms of technical skill no, as an overall more relateable artist yes I agree with you

Lupe still has potential to become a better artist too. Don't act like its the end of his road.

I would say Kendrick as far as being poetic, but J.Cole as far as emotion and passion in his music

Captain SmackaNicca · July 2012

I agree with this thread. Cole has talent but Cole world was just a lazy ass effort. It's like he recorded that on a couch with a bag of cheeto puffs on his lap. Plus the production was very mediocre. Kendrick's beat selection shits on Cole. His other aspects just edge him out by a little bit though.

I prefer Cole's flow & subject matter

jono · July 2012

Kendrick is dope but J. Cole is dope too. Music vs music = Cole easily, lyrically probably Kendrick a little bit. Flows = Cole, content = Cole. Better overall artist = Cole.

none of them niggas bruh.. none of them RIGHT NOW can adapt to EVERYONE and what EVERYONE wants to hear at one time... sorry...

Fuck what all these cornballs want to hear. Obviously folks have wack taste in music. You are not gonna sit here and tell me that J. Cole is seeing Lupe Fiasco on the mic.

You're exaggerating. J. Cole won't sell more than 150k first week.
