Aphasic 4,033 Posted May 25, 2021 Share Posted May 25, 2021 Everytime he comes with a new album his songs go into top 40 many of them reaching top 10 and top 5. This week he is at No. 2, but in reality I have never seen any of his songs actually become hits. I know he raps about political and controversial stuff rather than sx and vain topics (not that sex is vain). Is there something I am missing about him or am I just under appreciating him?

Guest Posted May 25, 2021 Share Posted May 25, 2021 J Cole is highly regarded by hiphopheads. Rap should not be held to the same standards as pop music, especially by pop music fans... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chesescake 4,004 Posted May 25, 2021 Share Posted May 25, 2021 From what I read back in the day, J Cole was overrated, but not because he is a bad artist — he was shined bright on the feature, but his own album was pale in comparison, and now on this album seems as if everything is getting better! Maybe you can try those songs that got him featured. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Killa 17,478 Posted May 25, 2021 Share Posted May 25, 2021 I've never listened to an album but the songs i've heard from him are mostly fire, great flow, good lyrics, sentiment. I think he's really good. Maybe he's also praised cause he's one of the few mainstream rappers who keep the old school Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andreu 37,216 Posted May 25, 2021 Share Posted May 25, 2021 He is a niche artists, a lot of people love his music but is unknown to the GP and/or internationally, which is not a bad thing at all. Also, off topic but his cover reminds me a lot to this Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ALGAYDO 32,655 Posted May 25, 2021 Share Posted May 25, 2021 Definitely not overrated. Forest Hills Drive is one of my favorite albums of all time, you should check it out. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
FATCAT 60,078 Posted May 25, 2021 Share Posted May 25, 2021 Definitely not, he's really talented. This kitten over here (meow) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
thierryrreiht 20,997 Posted May 25, 2021 Share Posted May 25, 2021 Never heard of him until this weekend. Played a couple of samples on iTunes and I'm not planning to hear more of him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RAMROD 109,606 Posted May 25, 2021 Share Posted May 25, 2021 He's great artist. And his lyrics are great. People need to stop overusing the words overrated to things or people they hate or dislike. Come up with a more hefty and clever reasoning. (ﾉ◕ヮ◕)ﾉ✧*:･ﾟ dancin' until i'm dead (*´艸｀*) ♡♡♡ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
