So Drake and his toxic music about women is cool but J Cole dissing himself is somehow toxic
What a backwards way of going about things. BTW, where tf is Aubrey during all of this??
No. Both of them are not cool
Thank you!!!
@@KingXOreo Nowhere to be found
🤷🏿♂️ well u right, but they don't care. The world boudda end anyway
They wanted to cancel him over THAT??? People are so damn stupid it never ceases to amaze me.
Bruh I swear he not even spreading hate to her he’s just saying his point of view people just don’t listen to lyrics these days man
@@cousinmanman6130 Exactly. People forget what art is. It's not suppose to be right or wrong, it an expression of the artist at the time they write it. That's all. People need to realize that artists aren't prophets, they're people like anyone else.
@@cousinmanman6130 like he said in the song, most people are sheep....sadly
@@ugpshake8172 I feel you, and I don't think he even said anything offensive about her and the people that are going against him are the exact people they complain about... THEMSELVES. J.Cole aint sexist, THEY ARE
@@teddestin2194 I agree
I still think you’re all tripping! The man spoke how he felt, and you all want to drag him. Kendrick doesn’t say anything, you all want to drag him. You’re essentially saying that you're damned if you do, and you’re if you don’t. Your message is lost in your feelings. I understand that your feelings are important and shouldn’t be ignored, but what Cole said wasn’t wrong. If you expect everyone to be on your level and wavelength when it comes to action and activism, you’re going to always be disappointed. Educate them, don’t destroy them. Don’t berate them. However you may feel on the subject you’re the expert in, you must remember that you’re dealing with the ignorant. If you have no patience for those who don’t know, you’re ill equipped to lead or teach.
Well said. ✊🏾
Facts
Exactly couldn’t say it better myself
Exactly Bro! Very well said! 👍🏾🔥
Dang i didn't think about it like that
This is why we need to ironically cancel the “cancel culture.” It’s crazy to think that people will try to destroy your career over an opinion that has nothing to do with them.
It's just bullying if you keep your head up they leave
The problem? No one is reading or actually listening.
Seriously
I still can’t believe the backlash. He talked about his shortcomings and that being the reason he didn’t like her tone. And everybody agreed with Dave Chapelle when he said we don’t wanna hear from Ja Rule right now but her message is the exact opposite lol.
You said it! WTF is going on, why are they canceling every black person and who is paying these people to start unnecessary dramas?
makes you wonder
Josh Odell yeah bc he’s a human I get he’s a public figure but he’s feels like if there’s way better public figures for this topic he just wants to listen and take it in like everyone else and tbh it was just blown way out of proportion people just stupid
So I can understand if you feel the timing of the song is off. Cole always talks about social issues in his music, He has marched with the people, He donates money and invest in his community and promotes Blackness. He makes a song where he’s saying he doesn’t understand why a Queen is upset with him and he needs her to enlighten him on what he’s doing wrong. I feel like ppl are mad because of who it was about and the timing. But I thought it was a very honest and introspective song which made him vulnerable. Everyone isn’t going to see things or process things the way that you do. Having these conversations with each other are important in the effort to understanding how we can better support each other. If you hide your thoughts, we’d keep avoiding having tough conversations. This song was intended to be a look into an artists struggle to find his place in a powerful movement after he was called out by a Queen. But the ppl wanted him to drop a social justice anthem and were let down instead.
@@joshodell1305 you're so oof I can't even say 🤦
Cole and Kendrick ain’t goin nowhere.. Now cry in a cup and let me drink those delicious tears 😭
REST bro this is some dark shit....😂😂😭😭😭
😂😂😂😂bro I was having a bad day until I read this dark shit Thank you🔥
Bruh those salty tears gonna be the worst drink ever 😅
😂😂😂
🤣🤣🤣
I now believe that people enjoy being mad. People search for anger
My thoughts exactly!
Being anger is kinda fun. People should ne angry way more, and then deal with the situations
murderous cops still earning a living, why can't we be mad ?
Yall crazy cole fans love this song, its the haters that wanna create confusion
Terrio Ducre that shit was trash
M V like this hater 👆🏼
@Childfromabove how was it trash tho, just curious?
@@generaljemz8985 The beat was wack and boring, and he didn't say jack shit on it, except for whining about someone criticising him for not talking on social issues, like someone got straight up murdered by the police, and he's whining about a tweet? Lil Baby's song was better ffs, and he's the least socially conscious rapper on the scene before The Bigger Picture. Lil B had George Floyd which was better.
Love it. He told a message. Sometimes it's not always about the beat. Listen to the words. 🖤🖤🖤👊🏿👊🏿🔥🔥🔥
Why do people feel that they can speak out, but when they are spoken back to, then they up in their feelings!🤦🏾♂️🤷🏾♂️🤷🏾♂️🤷🏾♂️🤷🏾♂️
Exactly!
FACTS💯
Lol all of this is just fans bullshitting about a song and drama they don't understand surrounding problems they don't care about.
@Childfromabove she dropped a song. Lol. So I'd say she is.
How did the misinterpretation of his lyrics turn into a gender war between black ppl, when we’re dealing with 911 calls on us minding out business, police brutality, and lynchings from trees? 🤦🏾♂️
Wokeness
Please say it again cus these fkerz are asleep 😴
Because as soon as u have an opinion about or say something to a woman in 2020 you're sexist
That war has been raging since the 80’s.
@SimpleMusic Exactly bro!
Y'all took his song wrong !!!! He didn't put it out wrong y'all perceived it wrong
How in the hell is this song misogynistic? He said queen's tone not queentone.
EXACTLY. People retarded
He spoke on how he felt and should have. She tweeted first outta frustration not thinking anyone would respond. She then becomes offended by the medium used to respond. ”Little girls go play.”
They blew this out of proportion! Its funny how they talk about him dividing us, but no one mentions the sisters criticism of black artist! She is also guilty of dividing during this time as well! Black men vs Black women is sad! 🤦🏽♂️🤦🏽♂️🤦🏽♂️
But Cole is out in them streets, putting words into action! He don't have time to be in the house, working his Twitter fingers. I'm so sick of these hashtag activists, always on social media, checking other folks "woke-ness"!
Facts Cole practices what he preaches While others preach to the choir
EXACTLY.
Exactly, Noname is a good rapper but she helping nothing
And for that same reason he is getting this so call backlash it just people who want to separate us that want to cancel jcole just like he said " it's a reason it took like two hundred years for our ancestors just to get freed" we are so easy divided and so easily turned against each other just look at this protest some black people are trying to turn the black community against every other race all while still being under the white men control
Exactly! These celebrities put up on post then go about their day, not helping at all yet they get praised over the ones who are actually in the streets and behind the scenes working? Social media got people brain’s fried to the point they think if they don’t see it it’s not happening. Everyone doesn’t care about proving a point online. Like Cole said, fuck a retweet.
Cole was literally in a protest.
Right bro was literally in a protest like instead of tweeting the issue he was out there idk if noname want him to put a song out on what happened but she wrong for calling that man out then dropping a song saying “o we got bigger issues” like make your mind up
AFTER being called out 😂
Social media era has men questioning how to lead. Women have to stop telling men how to be a man. Cause Cole and Kendrick were in the streets!
Feminism yawnnnn , he literally says on the track that he’s asking for understanding on the situation..basically dissed himself...then she responds with a diss about trans women being killed...uhm what about the black men hanging from trees? Feminism and Narcissism don’t mix
What is a trans woman. No name is trash bag
She does address that
@@getayereigns2438 noname is far from trash get that shit right
doe plu - Did she address Dave Chapelle on what he said about Don Lemon who basically said the same thing she said? (Real question cause I don’t know) If not, then I don’t respect her. It’s easy to go at someone who you know is going to more than likely take the high road. I’d still be careful if I were her tho. If Cole gets offended and the gloves come off, it’s not going to be pretty.
In the words of one of the new school Rap prophets Quavo "They do anything for clout"
So yall mad at j cole but not 69
Hello!!! Wtf
lmao 😂😂💯
😂😂😂
So a black man cant call out a black woman but a black woman can call out a black man. When will the double standards stop.
When yall stop dating WYATT WOMEN.🤣🤣 UNTIL THEN U CANT CHECK ME BOO. 🤣🤣
Exactly
@@fasaneh3906 that has nothing to do with it wrong is wrong rather its male or females. Yall really need to get out yall feeling and just do better.🤷♂️🤔🤫🤨
@@trackfortrack Hit a Nerve. I gotta do better though. This is the black man for u .. mind u he didn't say nothing about daying wyatt women. 🙄🙄 Typical
@@trackfortrack And we are doing better we out her making moves fighting for black men when are Black men going do better . YOU FAILED NOT US
Ok here I love hip hop dx but are y’all conflicted with what cole did? I literally just got done watching a vid of hip hop dx being neutral about the how situation but this vid seemingly condemn him. He was in Fayetteville protesting and I highly doubt it have to do with a tweet. The mans don’t even be on Twitter like that. And people tripping over the word “Tone” He didn’t say or implied “Watch your Tone.” And implying that he not doing anything, he’s been about this since Trayvon and he refers to her as a Queen. Wow! Very misogynistic. Smh
This truly was a reach. When are we gonna address the hyper criticism of black men by black women who don’t want to be held accountable or put into question. Real King/Queen behavior comes with honesty and open ears for the sake of growth. I’m not saying Coles method was the most effective, but we gotta stop demonizing brothas for speaking their mind or even defending themselves. That shit is just as corny as hating/mistreating black women
Imagine being offended by being told somebody doesn't like your tone.
Smh, true
Nobody with a brain hates Cole over that. He gave positive constructive criticism to someone who was negatively condemning members of their own hurt community instead offering to aid them and provide a solution to a perceived problem. It was more than fair for any member of the mentioned community to check someone who behaved that way. Doesn't matter what gender or how famous they are. He didn't even diss, just checked someone with constructive criticism
"It's not my job to tell anybody what to think or feel" that there is why I can't understand the need for celebrity opinions rn. I know I'm on the outside looking in, and I'm not going to pretend to know more about the situation than I do, or that my opinions on the subject matter. But hating on someone who has time and again spoke out against police brutality and systematic racism because they didn't tweet about it seems batshit crazy to me. Twitter won't change shit, the only way to change things is to actually stand up and try, not sitting at home tweeting. Shout out to all the people on the frontlines marching and protesting for a better world, much love from Scotland, and keep up the good fight 🤙✊
@Childfromabove if I were a celebrity... I would undoubtedly do exactly what Cole did... He talked about he sees social media as generally unhealthy in an interview and let's all be frank... There are hundreds of celebrities, even normal people who post black squares and tweet because of public approval. Criticizing a man for something he didn't tweet (but acted) is even more dumb than cancelling him for something he did. Y'all might as well manage his Twitter first him. Smh.
@Childfromabove Your right it does and that makes a great tool, but alot disinformation and misinformation is put through social media. So it shouldn't be your only source of information....It definitely is a great way to connect people and ideas.
@Childfromabove I think most of the people following j cole on twitter will also get awareness from other sources or other celebrities... It's just a lame excuse... He don't post but acted that is what matters most
J. Cole dissed himself. And nobody else.
that’s what I thought
Thats what we heard but a lot of feminist have selective hearing!
Everyone fails to mention the last few bars 🤦♂️
No one is talking about the whole damn song
I still stand with Cole they making women vs man thing when it's a black and white thing...
People always want a reason to be mad, sad 😪
Cole out on the streets and where is she? Hiding behind Twitter, reaching for that easy clout.
Devin Smith bro you know nothing on Noname and everything she’s done.They both done a lot and what you saying is outta pocket, do research
@@jacobleyva3548 what I said stands. Is she out in the streets protesting? No. She's hiding behind Twitter. Come at me when she DOES something instead of SAYING something.
Your dude Cole literally praised her on how great she is as a leader and everything she’s done for the black community and in Chicago by raising money for programs and her very well known book clubs on educating people on topics like these, these are two great artist that have done a lot.
Standing in protest isn’t the only form of protest
@@jacobleyva3548 that doesn't get to the problem here. She's complaining he hasn't said something on the Internet. He's out there, in the REAL WORLD, doing something. How is that a failure compared to Twitter fingers? Honestly, I'm not upset, just sincerely confused because it seems like she thinks the Internet is the only way. I should also say, I'm a fan of both artists, so I DO know what she's done.
I didnt realize it could of been about Noname.. I’m a fan of them both. So i hope the bickering can tone down and go back to what the matter really should be focused on. BLM ✊🏾
Probably the same people who think False Prophets is a "Diss" track...smh
Cole told me about Drudge Report. It's the most clicked on site on the internet. Thanks, again bro!
In this time of turmoil, we need to come together as a people. Everyone is going to have their individual opinions, whether he is speaking of noname or not, he gave her ✊ in his lyrics. We have to stop feeling attacked and understand that both artists are trying to do their individual part to get an important thought-provoking message out to our young people who are fighting for justice!!
Thanks 🙏 ❤️
This was a good, concise video. Thank you.
Can't be everything to everybody Cole.....It's a Cold world remember. Salute you for taking that for your peers.
People love canceling people so they can apologise only for them to reject their apology. Leave the poor man alone!!!!!!!!
I love noname's voluminous hair.
Cole is honest. F haters.
Why can only one person have an opinion but another cant ?How is his words decisive but nonames isn’t ? Why is it always men against women when that wasn’t Coles intent . He’s responding to someone he thought people were talking about him. Man I’m done with people 🤦🏾♂️
Cole is a artist, expressing himself. It’s not a club/party song. Y’all make him a activist. Y’all make him a revolutionary. He’s just an artist.
Maaaaaan HE SAID WHAT HE SAID!!!! These females love to poke and then cry victim!!! He didn't even disrespect her!! AND Y'ALL CAN'T CANCEL COLE!!! FOH!!
Lets be real, they aint canceling Cole
Snow on tha bluff was a 🔥🔥 movie though🙌
J. Cole gonna forever shine foh. 🔥🌟♕☉👑🙃🤗
Hell yea
actually hella informational, good vid
Every body in they feeling
Speaking your truth and speak it well, cost it what it will....
We live in a time where everyone with a keyboard wants to have a reason to be mad about anything and everything who cares 😂
I like the sing. Above all, it still expressed the need for us to do our research on what we're fighting against and the importance of fighting the right way!
As black woman I don’t see what J.Cole said that was wrong😪 he acknowledge he’s not one to know all and that he too is subjected to listen if clear points follows, even celebrities are not saved from subliminal stones on Twitter, but when she went ahead and posted what she posted on Twitter and that was her freedom of thought, though it was not only J. Cole that kept silent. if J. Cole was the only one who decided to reply why is he cancel???? How’s can he be canceled for not cursing at somebody but is only expressing how he feels “Queenstone” fucks y’all mad about queens tone ?!?!? That is the most respectful way I’ve ever anymore address a black women’s tone!!!!😭😂 While other rappers like future shit on y’all in call y’all loud and Golddiggers You’re mad because J. Cole has mixed feelings about “Queen’s tone”?? Get out here 😴
Read it as “Queen’s tone”, not “Queen Tone”. Description of the person being a queen, not her tone being queen-like. NoName and her fans failed english .
No the lyrics are queen tone.
This is messy af lol. I deleted my Twitter and subscribed to this, just cause I know HipHopDX will never delete theirs.
Lol
yea me too I couldn't fathom Twitter's stupidity
One of his best works!
All he really said was instead of criticizing and talking down to people you gotta educate them. This was lost on people when they assumed it was a diss.
I love the song. He's talking about Black Queens and Black Kings coming together. And, Cole's fans love the song. It's true, if you want more people to receive the message, you must be conscious of your tone. We learned this as kids. It's not what you say, it's how you say it.
As Cole previously said. If he disses a rapper it’s gon be legit. “We” ain’t canceling Cole. Better get away from here with that bs 🚫🧢
His fans still love him and the song, you media's are the one saying that people hate it
J. Cole made a whole song about all of this thats going on in the country over 3yrs ago "high for hours" he knows what it takes to make a positive change. Not posting anything on social media doesn't mean he's not aware of what it takes to make a change. What changes are you going to make by staying home and posting something online. He went to the white house talked to the president about these issues, so people do your research eduicate yourself.
Okay, what were not going to IGNORE the fact that J.cole has been putting black women and black issues on the frontline of all his music for the past DECADE. But before George, he was/it was lame & we rather twerk and listen to mumble rap!!! He's BEEN for the people and ESPECIALLYYYYYYY BLACK WOMEN. He said he didn't like "the queens tone" as he shouldn't !!! She was mad, why would he like her tone! The song was so much bigger than just her or him. Like did they try to understand the lyrics at all?
You gotta update this
#1 - Cole never asked to be a leader, but never ran from the label that ppl put on him. That alone is commendable. #2 - He said something about the queen's tone is bothering HIM. He didn't she was wrong or tell anyone else they should feel the way he feels. He stated his opinion. #3 - I knew they were gonna get him for that "children" line because ppl can't think past their face. But if you really listen, you will hear he was simply saying be patient with people who don't know as much about a particular subject. But the words "children" and "ignorant" carry negative undertones and will always get a rapper in trouble.
Give me someone outspoken ANY time coz you KNOW where you stand rather than someone whom has strong feelings and insideosly hide them then slap you with them when you least expect it . EVERYONE must express themselves as long as no harm is done onto others. We all need space to express other wise things manifest in the physical world and not always for the better
i swear the year 2020 ... people just found random shit to be mad about
I gotta admit... This was blown out of proportion. I don't think J Cole was trying to beef in the first place. He still handled it in a really mature and forward thinking way. Cole is an intellect I feel like people forget that.
GOD bless yall
No ones going to cancel Cole
The message of the song is to sophisticated for the majority of the people to understand and internalize!
I don’t understand. What was wrong with what he said? (Genuinely asking)
social media has been a curse
Just reminds me that some people dont listen to lyrics and cannot comprehend or disseminate simple information without skewing the message.
Remember that experiment in school, where the teacher told one kid to pass along the message, then have the last kid tell what he heard, and it's not the original thing the teacher said?
@@anactualguy8257 Its worse..WAY worse lol. You can listen to the original source over and over again. We live in a time where people are searching for reasons to be mad. Petty crimes bout to take a whole new meaning.
The used the word policing. It’s a distraction.
Its funny how this backfired they thought they was gonna cancel Cole. Cole has done too much good to be canceled everyone involved in bashing him is gonna look stupid look at the comment section 95% of the comments support Cole why because despite what anyone says we have SEEN what he does for the community
Where’s Ja Rule when you need him? Rule 2020
U can't say anything to/about a female again without being called a misogynist. If you know Cole and his music you know he's all for women's rights but people in 2020 are so quick to hate somebody for no reason
Ain't nothing controversial about someone speaking the truth in his raps. If it's how he feels and he lays it all out there in the song and sets it up so that there is no confusion about what's he's saying then wtf is the problem. All your criticzing is what he mentioned and talking about her queen tone... He didn't say the bitch shouldn't have that tone.. since when did expressing your feelings regardless of your platform become something to cry over.
Uncle Charla said a hurt dawg gon holla
Noname complains about Kendrick and Cole while she stay tweeting at home. Cole and Kdot dedicated their careers to black excellence, and have actually been to the riots in person. You tell me who has done more and who has the right to criticise?
From the looks of the comment section mixed with the tone HiphopDx seemed to take on this topic......this WAS NOT the reaction HiphopDx was expecting. 😆
Not at all. Especially when you're narrator is a woman as if the queen tone from her would ease them in more. Lmao 😂🤣😂
Majority of Black women won’t let black men be great they criticize nag and complain when we do our best instead of saying thanks for your energy, especially when we finally have a mind of our own tbh noname wants clout simple.
A tweet from your favorite rapper can end racism
😂😂😂
Lmao people really think tweets will save the world like bruh how bout you go actually protest
Don’t fall into the woke and cancelled trap.
That's a long list of Rappers w/ Black Plight Discographies..🤦🏾♂️😆
I don’t think a lot of people actually listened to the song. Or a lot of people aren’t used to lyrics.......Brother was policing himself based off his shortcoming and how he feels.....
I stand with Cole and his right to have and express his opinion.. he didn't insult or diminish her..having a problem with her tone isn't a diss..
He did what was needed
People calling Cole a misogynist over that, have you never heard a rap song in your life? Bunch of hypocrites.
Not all contributions need to be tweeted and posted. Just because you know see it or know it doesn't mean that it isn't happening.
Exactly
Bruh if its going to be cole against every black woman I'm with Cole cause its seems every single one of them coming after cole even this chick saying the song is invalid because cole dare to ask a black woman to not be condescending while talking to people
I still love J. Cole😏🤩
We honestly don’t need to see a tweet or even hear recognition from celebrities, what we do need is for these politicians and us as Americans to understand right is right and wrong is wrong. I’m a huge jcole fan and agree with everything he says. I’m highly disappointed in chance the rapper bc the way he addressed the issue was childish in times like this don’t we need to pick each other up instead of tearing one another down?
I loved the song. All he’s saying is teach us all and be gently. It was not an attack on black woman
J.cole is most intelligent and underrated rapper and I don't think this is a diss its just a message for no name that's what his mind says
Cole just tryna be a good dude and set a good example ppl need to chill tf out
Basically what they're trying to say is that women are above criticism. Let them tell it we're in a patriarchal society.
He didn't call her a bitch or threaten her. Some rappers would have called her a ton of names and no one would be offended.
doubt won't fade the truth
Bro I love this song. Agree or disagree it bumps.
