    That song has a nice vibe to it but yall niggaz on rapradar criticise anything that is not hardcore or goon affiliated when you know the shit they saying is all lies

  2. TVA says:

    What’s funny is all of the bellyaching that went on when he released that as the first single. Honestly I hear that on the radio more now than Can’t Get Enough. Whenever they decide to drop this Nobody’s Perfect video though I think that get’s Cole his Plat plaque.

  3. Da Business says:

    Props to the homie J. Cole.

  4. FREEmacDIESAL says:

    ok good. im a huge fan of cole

    but enough of glorifying every little accomplishment smdh

  5. Word says:

    Work Out? The same Work Out that ppl said would flop? The same Work Out people said was wack and wouldnt catch on? Watered down? Lazy verse? Lame hook and wack beat? Lmao. Damn! Cole World! The haters just cant win. Yall just left with the dick look everytime yall say something negative about dude.

    @ Word

    Yo dude you put a lotta emotions into your post… Wow you must be really mad

    Not surprised that it went gold as fake is the new real and people nowadays buy this stuff. This is more related to business moves than music

    @freemacdisel
    How is that a little accomplishment? Are you retarded? It’s his first gold single in his career, it’s a MILESTONE.

  9. Your Life Is a Lie says:

    I remember when going Gold with high expectations would get you drop from the label.

  10. Hudes says:

    Why you guys don’t post that canibus dissed cole then apologized like a bitch

    Huh?

    Come on rap radar

  11. Boyyoudumb says:

    let me cosign @suppppppppp

    how is that a little acomplishment? specially in a day and age where people almost virtually never buy music when they can just download it in 3seconds?

  12. no name says:

    nice but i am kind of tired of the ” cole world” shit.the fuck?

  13. ZoomZoomDad-Otis says:

  15. mac DIESEL fanbase says:

    That’s cool, I never got into this dude tho, too boring voice, flow.
    And I wonder why people think he brings back “real hip hop” when he raps about
    the same damn things any mainstream artist raps about….

  16. The Truth says:

    Whens the last time Canibus wash up ass went Gold?

  17. Rap Radar says:

    We don’t post it because were Roc Nation and Def Jam groupies.

  18. Black Shady says:

    Another W for Cole

    Another L for the haters and Canibus

    COLE WORLD BIATCH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  19. […] news. Now that his album is gold, the first single Work Out gets a gold plaque as well. Shouts to Rap Radar. Signiture718Related posts:News: @Rihanna Signs Multi-Million Dollar Deal to Promote […]

  20. Canibus says:

    ^ But Cole scared to respond tho

  21. Cadet says:

    I’m so f**king PROUD of him!!!!

  22. Jigsaw says:

    ^You don’t have to respond when the other dude punks out the very next day and apologizes.

  23. Canibus says:

    That nigga J. Cole shook. He don’t want no problems.

  24. Hip-Hop Fiend says:

    Naw nigga Canibus don’t want no problems. “Its A Cole World & Your The Reigning Champ” – Canibus apology to Cole

  25. Smoke screen says:

    Nah canibus is just being a bitch as usual….and his retarded ass is irrelevan so why should cole waste his time respondin to such a lame??? The only rhing canibus is remembered for is dissing ll and em..thats all

    “I Got The Type Of Shit To Make A Hater Say Sorry” – J. Cole

  27. Y U MAD says:

    @Hip Hop Fiend… that’s an unquotable line. That line was an L to quote especially when you are trying to big up someone. It clearly exposes how basic the nigga is on the mic. Congrats to J Cole though

  28. Word says:

    A basic nigga with a couple gold plaques. Yup. I’d take that any day.

  29. Hip-Hop Fiend says:

    Basic? I don’t think Cole was trying to be complex with that line its just fitting for the moment. Same goes to for “Work Out” everybody wanted a street single but it shows you that Cole is not put in box and is not afriad of the mainstream. Now he has a 2 Gold plaques and grammy nomination to show for it. So he’s clearly winning.

    LOL

    I think we found somebody else who thought that single would flop.

    J.cole is just playing the game so he can make some money and give us some more “friday night lights” to ride to.

    The real question is…..WHY ARE ANY OF YOU LISTENING TO THE RADIO?????? it shouldn’t matter whats on there to you because its been known for years they play the same 8-10 songs. Hook that ipod to the car its bout to be 2012

  31. Y U MAD says:

    @Word: Its true what Facts said, You should Cut down on your emotionally charged tone comments that lacks facts… its just different opinion on a forum, nothing personal unless if you family with J Cole. Its whatever though…

  38. RealHipHopBack says:

    Never thought this single would get any attention, good job cole

  39. Word says:

    @Y U MAD

    Where is the emotion in my comment? I dont see where you guys are getting this from. Im not banging on my keyboard or anything. I just said he’s basic…to you, yeah maybe. BUT, if all the facts show that he is basic, then hes a basic nigga with PLAQUES. And that trumps any hate anyone could throw at him. Thats really it. Nuffin personal at all…aint like im calling yall bitches or whatever.

  41. tr says:

    J.Cole stay winning…it’s looking like he doesn’t know how lose

  42. amp says:

    the only reason canibus dissed cole is because his secret hatred for jay-z. canibus is a dope MC but definitely not a successful artist so he aims his frustration toward well-accomplished rappers ex: LL Cool j, Eminem, Jay-Z., J.cole( even though he apologized to him )

  43. Ac@pella! says:

    Congrats Cole.

  44. Cali says:

    How the fuck did this song go Gold?

  45. the void says:

  46. mahrke says:

    cole bringing real hip-hop back by being balanced he has is main stream stuff then has his deep stuff and then hs real lyrical stuff…if you dont know about it that means you just listening to the raidio

  47. TK says:
