J. Cole Explains Retracting Kendrick Lamar Diss
American rapper J. Cole has shared why he decided to retract his diss track aimed at Kendrick Lamar. The dispute started after Lamar dissed Cole and Drake on Future and Metro Boomin’s track “Like That,” leading Cole to fire back on his song “7 Minute Drill,” where he accused Lamar of “falling off like the Simpsons.”
During a performance at the 2024 Dreamville Festival in North Carolina, J. Cole paused his set to apologize to Lamar, offering insight into his decision in his latest track, “Port Antonio.” He explained that the media and others were trying to stir up conflict for profit. Cole emphasized that pursuing the feud would have cost him a friendship with Lamar, stating, “I pulled the plug because I saw where that was about to go… I wouldn’t have lost the battle, dog, I would’ve lost a bro.”
VeryDarkMan shares that he was warned by Burna Boy once that the Nigerians he fights for will one day turn on him.
He shared “Burna Boy warned me, he said the Nigerians I’m fighting for will backstab me. They’ll put knife in your neck if they have the opportunity.”
“Fighting for Nigerians is tiring. Same Nigerians that tried to cancel Burna of their own because of what happened in his UK show. Una international star. Just because him tell one person make him Comot from him show, Una join them everybody wan cancel am.”
