    FUCK LIL B, that weak ass west coast soulja boy.
    who the fuck listens to that Garbage!?

  2. flawda says:

    I get what he is saying, even though Lil B is trash, he is creating a demand and that alone forces the labels, radio, and networks to look at him. At the end of the day, the crack head generation fans are at fault for even letting Lil B and artist like him to get the platform, these fans are like fishes, easily attracted to flashy shit. Dudes like Lil B won’t have no longevity though, like Nas said “most of you dudes will pop for a minute and the game will get rid of ya’ll”

    COLE WORLD….no motherfucking blanket!

  4. Belize says:

    Translation:
    He sucks.

  5. Slowbot10 says:

    @flawda while lil b or a waka might not be the best rappers they are necessary…If Hip Hop only had ppl like Nas, Lupe, Mos Def, etc…it wouldn’t be as big as it is today…All rap is needed to push the culture forward

  6. Matt says:

    That was painful to watch, J.Cole never become a public speaker

  7. suppppppp says:

    J. Cole majored in communications or marketing or some shit. He’s a good speaker in some interviews with analogies and shit, but I don’t think he knew how to articulate himself here…

  8. Craig says:

    I think Cole wanted to say what he said without coming off as a “hater” or being misinterpreted. You could see he was choosing his words carefully.

  9. still best rite now!! says:

    i think Jermaine sounded a Lil’ salty….lol i never heard of “trash” selling out shows in NewYork with no record deal.

    like Mystikal said…”90% of this shit is your business..10% of this shit is your talent” So blame Hov for your record still sitting on the shelf, while yall tryna find the right single.

  10. 'Z says:

    Ahhhhh! You stuck-up fucks. Lil B is amazing, get with it, you close minded little bitches. B WILL END IT.

  11. Sam I Am says:

    @slowbot

    Ummm rap was way bigger back then, before the generation of now took over

  12. D says:

    J was wrong bout one thing…..Lil B do suck!

  13. Donn says:

    HAHAHA, Listening to Cole stumble on his words is hilarious coming from hearing his music.

    As far as Lil B, i don’t listen to him and to be honest, whether you like him or not, you fuel his platform and his fame everytime you run to comment about him. Your giving him attention. Good or bad, publicity is publicity.

    Believe me, if no one left comments under his music, mixtapes and videos then he would go away quick. But its the haters and the fans who make him popular. That goes for Flocka, Gucci, Soulja Boy etc. Stop giving them your attention and they’ll go away

    Differentiation, it makes all the difference in the world. This one sentence describes the #based movement. in its entirety.

  16. m85 says:

  17. young lucci poppin xl says:

  18. flawda says:

    @ young lucci poppin xl

    Why the fuck would J Cole run and do tracks with all those dudes, the last thing hiphop needs is another rapper using popular producers and the same fucking sound. We need more producers who has their own sound and style, i don’t want to hear another MC Hammer, Maybach Music,etc sounding beat. You niggas just love the redundant ass formulas in rap, same fucking sounding songs and beats! smh

    Let J Cole do his thing and cultivate his own sound, it will serve him better in the long run. The one thing he can always say is, he has his own sound and produce his own beats. Hiphop needs more individuality and less interchangeable rappers!

  19. vv says:

    cosign @flawda 100%

    I dont think some of these kids even like music- theyre too busy looking for pop hits and club bangers to actually get anything more out of it.

  20. AO says:

    Man Fuck Lil B… His shit is an insult to Hip Hop..

  21. yungjid says:

    Ima kid and all I listen to is Cole and Drake and r&b

  22. El Negro says:

    Niggas is quick to suck off J.Cole. But Lil B used the goofy dumb raps to get noticed, But he still puts out the music in which he is actually speaking on real stuff but dumb niggas never listen to all his shit.

  23. Ihateu4real says:

    @El Negro thats just it we shouldnt have to listen to select songs most of shit should be at least decent but its not, its fuckin trash.
    Homeboys voice is annoying and he got NO flow what so ever

  24. LA says:

    ^1st impression is what i check for. after i find out he a comedian rapper or a flash in tha pan rapper. im differently not checking for him

  25. Maestro says:

    Talent always matters. But yeah, he’s right, you need more. The ones who got the total package (no Luger) become the best.

  26. @DONN IM WITH YOU ON THAT ONE…DAMN THESE DUDES SO BAD WE GOTTA WISH THEM AWAY LOL. I LIKE HOW J.COLE BASICALLY SAID HE’S COULDN’T SPIT IN THE COOLEST WAY HE COULD SAY IT…BUT LIL B CAN RAP JUST LISTEN TO THE SHIT HE DID WITH THE PACK(WHEN HE WROTE)…I JUST THINK HE FREESTYLES EVERTHING NOW…BUT EITHER WAY I CAN’T STAND HE’S MUSIC..ANYBODY WHO DOES LIKE HE’S “MUSIC” MUST LIKE NON SENSE…AND THATS FINE I GUESS..BUT REAL MUSIC WILL ALWAYS SHINE.

  27. ColoradoKnight says:

    @ first sight of this post I was heated boy, hahaha! I was like, “Aint no way J. Cole is supportin’ this lame?” But after watching, he made it quite clear that even with no talent (perfect example -> Lil’ B) if you can market yourself on the internet etc, people will take notice. Makes sense. It’s disgusting these lames are gettin’ money and using our culture (Hip Hop) to get it. J. Cole is the future of Hip Hop in my opinion.

  28. DeeVibeZ says:

    wat he said abt lil b is so true…he’s like a class clown in the rap game bt will always get attention..smh its so weird bt i’ll stick wit the “ORIGINAL” hip-hop please.

  29. what? no standing ovation after that?

  30. Real Deal says:

    for people talking about how lil b talks about real topics sometimes, the most important part of rap is being able to rap, which lil b can’t do smh

  31. The Hater says:

    This NIGGA SCARED!!! *Bishop voice*

    If you wanna call him wack, call a spade a spade.

  32. Major says:

    “i don’t want to hear another MC Hammer, Maybach Music,etc sounding beat. You niggas just love the redundant ass formulas in rap, same fucking sounding songs and beats! smh”

    Truth and im from the 757 but if i can go a year without hearing a Luger beat id be happy and Lil B is complete utter garbage juice extract.

  33. The Kameleon says:

    Lil B sucks fucking ass.

    And him being popular is stone-cold proof that music requires NO talent, and that the average american rap listener is the dumbest possible creature that roams the earth.

    Lil B is one of the marks of the decline of western civilization, in the form of the music industry, a plague, or at least, a component of such.

    Faggots like Lil B make me sick.

  34. Alien says:

    You guys may hate Lil B, but do you really think he is serious when he is doing 80% of his raps? if you listen to him in some interviews he talks in a normal voice and can be articulate. I honestly think Lil B knows that his career is a joke and started off as a joke.
