    That’s the problem. Y’all call anything more than the bare minimum “critic bait” or “white bait”. Shouldn’t we want more from our artists?

    Complex art is not reserved for white audiences

    They shallow and like shallow raps so anything with substance is white critic bait. Niggas really need to grow tf up smh.

    just delete the whole thing because the diss was the best song. and i said this on release night, not because of him backing down.

    might need The Fall Off by the end of this year too just to clean up this stain a bit. yikes.

    I commend Cole. Knows who he is, where he's from and where he wants to go. Peace is the only goal.

    Explain. This bout the line on Pi?
    I didn't think take that as something meant to be offensive to trans people. Is there something I'm missing there?

    I am using it and I don't find offense in the lines, therefore, I am asking you to point it out to me if there's something that I'm missing there.

    No need to question my ability if you would rather not take the time to help me see what you supposedly see.

    So you think he's calling someone transgender as a compliment? The rest of the bar is "being transgender is fake".

    The whole mechanic of the punchline is transphobia. As far as the punchline makes sense at all. It barely does.

    Do you know what genre you listen to?

    Bad s*** is constantly said by rappers. They like to discriminate, they're conservative, mostly very christian, very pro-capitalism, they look down on the poor, women, lgbtiq etc

    Cole's reputation is so much different than the average rapper. He's got a brand that falls apart if you actually listen to his raps. The dissonance is the interesting part. The bigotry is par for the course unfortunately.

    Imagine being a trans fan of j cole and hearing ‘btw behind that CHOSEN IDENTITY d***, is still a p****’

    It’s obviously a simple punchline about someone being a b****/a p**** etc but it doesn’t work without transphobia.

    And putting Cole’s character into the context I doubt he actively discriminates or is bigoted towards trans people but that is a transphobic bar pretty plainly

    It's literally like a Cassidy punchline from 2004

    "I make you d***s turn p****" etc

    Except he made it weird and verbose like Ben Shapiro. Like it only exists to be read as a statement. It's not a good bar!

    I don't see anything wrong with being transgender, so calling someone one, or rather, using the concept of transgenderism to set up a punchline as necessarily offensive.

    Using the concept of transgenderism to set up wordplay and punchlines is not the same thing as calling someone a transgender tf? lol
