J. Cole Drops 7 Minute Drill Kendrick Diss

Timelines Involved

Analysis

Track 12 on Might Delete Later
This is J. Cole's response to Like That. On this song he calls out how Kendrick Lamar isn't as great as people make him out to be, by saying To Pimp A Butterfly and Mr. Morale aren't good albums.
"Your first shit was classic, your last shit was tragic
Your second shit put n—s to sleep, but they gassed it"
He also talks about how he barely releases albums, citing the fact that over 12 years he only made 4 albums, this is due to Kendrick's 5 year hiatus between DAMN. and Mr. Morale.
"Four albums in twelve years, n—a, I can divide"
"He averagin' one hard verse like every thirty months or somethin'
If he wasn't dissin', then we wouldn't be discussin' him"
But he also discusses that he doesn't actually dislike Kendrick Lamar, which would end up being the reason he deleted the song just two days later.
"Lord, don't make me have to smoke this n—a 'cause I fuck with him
But push come to shove, on this mic, I will humble him"
