Last night, J. Cole released an impromptu 40-minute documentary showcasing new music from his forthcoming album ‘4 Your Eyez Only’. A track titled ‘False Prophets’ garnered attention due to multiple interpretations of the track’s lyrics. The North Carolina rapper appears to take shots at “a star” that he claims is “falling apart but we deny it”. These lyrics have been interpreted by many to be aimed at ‘The Life Of Pablo’ rapper Kanye West. This doesn’t seem too obscure following recent events regarding Ye’s mental health and psychological issues.
After the alleged Kanye diss Cole then appears to aim the crosshairs at Toronto singer/rapper Drake. “Wonder what happened/Maybe it’s my fault for idolising niggas based off the words that they be rappin’/But come to find out these niggas don’t even write they own shit/Hear some new style bubbling up then they bite that shit.” This isn’t the first time Drake has been called out on ghostwriting claims but many believe those were well and truly put to rest earlier this year when Drake released not one – but two diss tracks aimed at Meek Mill.
The documentary is available exclusively on Tidal.
