This tooo hard

Yeahhh
When shotta flow 1736?
My fav song of the album so far.
Nle
How many words can you rhyme with "close"? Cole: Yes
I'm shook. I was just about to write this comment, and then I saw yours. Exactly word for word :O
Not too many in the way that bruh do it
This made me laugh 😂
"any 1 syllable word containing O"
He made a whole song with just one rhyme. This is not an easy feat
Not easy at all
dude is wildin
Holy crow you just made me realize that thankyou😂 cole the goat
He's done it before with "Stay" I mean it wasn't the same rhyme the whole song but mostly.
It sounds like you guys never heard real hip hop artist before there is nothing new or hard its just the corny drake sing along auto tune mumble rhymes that make y'all think he is killing it but go listen to young Canibus freestyles or 2nd round knock out
I don't think people realize how hard this kind of song is to pull off. Not only did he make a whole song with just one rhyme, but he manage to tell a story with it. That is really impressive.
Naw cause close could a been a close call and both walk out
Pretty much all Joyner Lucas did before he start talking about just being a rapper/gangster 😂 Joyner was one of the best story tellers
Who stayed up for this album like a little kid waiting for Christmas
Me
Me
you know it!
Hell yeah!!
Most excited I’ve been since Christmas when I was a lil kid
Cole is one of the most goated storytellers of all time like he showed on “For your eyes only” and Forest Hills Drive
Facts J. Cole, King Von, and Speaker Knockerz are some of the best storytelling artist💯💯💯
DopeAzzFukk🤘🏽🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
My favorite album of his
don't forget kendrick.

“Gotta be patient and trust in God, He the coach” 🔥
The world play is crazyyyy, his pauses with the word “close” y’all not touching him fr!!🔥
Exactly he used Close to ots fullest extent poets get luck to do that. He told a story so clear and gave you 8 different ways to look at it. After giving you 8 different feelings of all that's close but far in his life. In every line in every pause all that its imsane. Really a masterclass

bro im here coz my spotify censored whole album

Are we just gonna ignore "You know twelve be takin' notes" (12B pencil for taking notes)
this is amazing
😳😳🤯
12 is mostly known as Police. So police was taking notes in this case.
@@pendleton123 he meant It both ways
@@pendleton123 it's called a double entendre and a lot of this truly clever shit is over a lotta y'alls heads. MF DOOM is probably your favorite rapper's favorite rapper, but UOENO.
J. Cole is the goat
“Villmatic” 🔥🔥 Nas definitely smiled/will smile hearing that line
& wasn’t disappointed best believe that💯
No Doubt? 2Pac & Nas r his favorite Rapper until he heard NAS I GAVE U POWER deep record. Crazy!! J.Cole OFF SEASON iz a dope album
Factz☝🏽. Also Cole has a song called Villematic too.
He’s been saying villematic. Still at it.
Shit wasn't even a line, jst a phrase nd that phrase comes with so much behind it, thats wat big ol' Jermaine does
Real Cole Fans are her Early 🤟🏾🐐
Ong I was finna do some weird shii but I saw it said j cole dropped and I had to stop
yesss sirrrr🐐🐐
Bruh I dropped everything and started listening to the whole album 🐐🐐🐐🐐🐐
I stayed up for this one and I’m glad I did
Yesssir
Cole makes his narrative so vivid, it's like a movie for the ears.
Right, the imagery he conjures up is honestly incredible
His voice is just so therapeutic for me
"Close, I stare at my dreams as they approach, gotta be patient and trust in God he's the coach. Temptations of taking a shortcut but I don't " Album of the year confirmed
Double entendres right?

Facts stay blessed hope we all achieve and accomplish what we set out to do or want to do........longevity and prosperity.......Amen....
A thought for the mind.
Same. As soon as he announced his new album was dropping , I instantly said "I can't wait for the tour!" They be so lit!
You’re a real one
I cannot wait!
When you realise he rhymed the whole track with the word "close" 🤯
i lost hope for hip hop, i dont like this track too much simply bc its unpleassnt to my eyes but still is a relief to see someone with skill and style, the one word thing reminds me of Wu tang clans Method Man track
@@MightyEFX none of j coles songs are about flow its all storytelling listen to the lyrics.
@@MightyEFX bro do you listen to the lyrics
@@MightyEFX This nigga listen to music for flow💀

“ gotta trust in god he da coach” 💯💯
How many of y'all been listening to Cole since like... The Warm up, Friday night lights, or something like that? Because this whole album right here hits me with those vibes. Just even better.
Shit i feel you i been listening to J Cole since he came up. Friday night lights the warm up sideline story 🔥
The last stretch went hard to 🔥
I lost my breath at the end of the last song
Facts
2009
The way he tells a story is just mesmerising
I just hope people understand how amazing this story is woven and then the word close is used to its ful existent.
Some of these niggas don't get it bruh🤦🏾
@Will Reese this song is 10000 levels above it. I cant wait for my son to get older and get in trouble so this can be an homework assignments. Its so layered its insane. I learned more about making music than i ever did from any album. Placements all of that
@@Tew-ez6uv i suggest you watch videos explainin his wordplay and rhymes its crazy
@@shifty_s197 this song alike other songs on this album have is more than rhyme patterns and wordplay its about placement, building progression, stretching subjects, and moods matching statements. And plus i listen to j cole all day everyday i don't need to hear tale of two cities explained i listen enough and long enough to know all that that song means. Which is why im so astonished by this album and what he did with every single track and making it all fir seemless like it was planned to the T. Like it was destiny. It's literally the off-season. Like Lebron Averaging 42% from 3 for a season. Like damn how much better can he be. Its crazy. Im on my no lie 20+ listen of this album. He not only has songs with meaning each song has more than one meaning. Its incredible to listen to a song like love yours. Or kod then see him attempt something similarly now and is able to make a song with one of those concepts and make it sound however he wants it to sound( not dictated by the mood of the beat) can do a whole story in one verse and hook in certain songs, can keep consrant metophors to the point where no sentence is regular, etc i promise its so much man and you'll understand what i mean when you continue to listen. If not you probably already understand what i mean
This will be the oldest cole’s fans favorite song on the album (the ones that have been listening since the warm up days). If that’s you you know what I mean
Agreed to this statement fully. Song tho not album. People are saying your statement regarding album and they cant be more wrong. This song is old cole. Album not so much.
On god facts!! Since a dollar and a dream pt1
facts 💯
Facts!
Haha frfr when I first heard it I was like nah this my top 3 for some reason
Me bumping j Cole's album, while j cole is balling in my country 🇷🇼🇷🇼🇷🇼
I hate that these songs are so SHORT 😩🥺
He smart making them short, nowadays people have short attention spans
Don't worry, friend. He still killin`
@@thrax-x nope that's not it ... short songs have a better replay value 👌
@@possekidxan or bc they jus freestyles
Atleast he gave us something to listen to
“Nothin but a dolla but some Hope” bro struggled and still tried to get out and made it the real goat J. Cole

Does anyone know who he was talking about
"Temptations are taking a shortcut, but I don't 'Cause I ain't tryna be a almost, when I get it, I'ma float". These lyrics give me so much power, Building a small business in the shed of a shared home is not easy but lyrics like this will stay with me through the grind.
“IDGAF that I’m broke, cause in my mind I’m rich with shit I done wrote Write your life into existence Speak your life into existence The power of the tongue and the pen is not a joke” Ladies and gentlemen we have been blessed

He was preaching

The only artist I can never say I miss the old him,because he has always been true to himself....he is the same ever since day one🙃
Lyrically speaking this has to be the best song to come out this year
THIS IS ART! COLE JUST TOLD THE MOST BEAUTIFUL UGLY STORY EVER. HIS INTUITION ABOUT HIS FRIEND WHILE ALSO RACING TIME TO MAKE IT/GET A DEAL SO HE CAN REACH BACK AND HELP OUT HIS FAMILY AND FRIENDS AND IN THIS STORY IN PARTICULAR HIS FRIEND. RACING THE INEVITABLE. COLE WAS SO CLOSE.
Hold the heckkkk up???? I gotta relisten again
FR
and he told everything ryhmin it with close on every bar, its to much man, this song is to good to be true bro
here's my interpretation: You cant bring everyone to the top with you. You can wish the people you care about could change their destructive ways preventing them to get to the top but ultimately, you can only watch the separation between you and them grow as your morals and passions are more centered around ambition
There are two paths you can take, the right way and the wrong way. The guy selling drugs is the same hopeful guy you are he just wants to make it, the only thing separating us is the choices we make, a lot of times we realize it too late.
damn
I love this album so much
Furthermore, I think the whole song is a double entendre for the “commercial” route hip hop went. He uses his friend which now turned to lean and money as a parallel to how Cole doesn’t feel rap is going the right way - and it’s proven by all the rappers who ultimately got killed for their riches (e.g. Pop Smoke, XXX etc.). The whole song is full of subtle clues “we knew each other’s folks” = back in a time when there was room for both concscious and commercial rappers, before rap started to “have candy rims on spokes” ... what do you guys think?
On the penultimate song from J. Cole’s sixth studio album, The Off-Season, the North Carolina native reminisces about a former friend who succumbed to the temptations of drugs and gang life. The narrative culminates with the apparent murder of J. Cole’s friend as he laments over their deteriorating friendship.
I love how much emphasis he put on the O's to make them rhyme even more
This is the realest in our time we had Nas Jay z thank god for J Cole I miss this hiphop now we gota wait again 🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦
This is literally the best song on the album
W
this song going to be slept on but this is my favorite on the album for sure. feels like that old cole flow and no autotune
That's my jam too
My jam too been on repeat since. Thanks Cole
Love that no autotune sound from Cole
Kanye west late registration vibes
Same here
Cole has those intangibles. He has one of those voices. Its raw. It hits hard. He's like a singer with a raspy voice but knows how to use it.
BROOOOO THE RYHYMES!!!!!!!
J Cole is a lyrical nuke 💣 that just went off. This album is nuts
Saving the rap game one verse at a time.
You can really hear the pain in his voice towards the end, and his words are pure artistry. Truly the G.O.A.T
My God that "O" rhyme scheme from the beginning to the end is fucking incredible 🔥
The real is back! J Cole is the Goat, he inspired every song I ever made. I hope to get signed to Dreamville soon
