Cole has been trending ever since he left The Beef early
As The Shade Room previously reported, there was a lot of criticism on social media about Cole’s early exit from the musical fray.
Cole was initially all for the verbal pun. In his song “7 Minute Drill”, he praised and praised K Dot’s discography. It was in response to Kendrick’s accusations against him and Drake in Metro Boomin’s “Future” and “Like That.”
Fans loved the lyricist’s musical beats. However, Cole quickly apologized. Two days after publishing the dissertation dissertation, he expressed remorse on stage at the Dreamville Fest.
The “Power Trip” rapper asked the audience, “How many people think Kendrick Lamar is one of the greatest mothers to ever touch a microphone?””
He continued, “Dreamville, you all love Kendrick Lamar, right? Me too. So I just want to come here and publicly act like that was the lamest, stupidest shit to me… it made me feel like I made the wrong move 10 years ago.”
He later removed “7 Minute Drill” from streaming platforms as promised.
The viral beach photo marks the first time we’ve seen the rapper in public since early March. After apologizing to Kendrick, he headed to New York to support his artist BAS on the final stop of his American tour.
But while he was saying goodbye early, Drake and Kendrick exchanged blows in the locker room. In the meantime, J has remained a mother. However, that hasn’t stopped him from going viral, with fans wondering how he privately responds to the increased criticism.
Although Cole’s decision to withdraw from the war of words was initially ridiculed, social media is now praising him as a wise man.
