J. Cole is still outside in the middle of The Fall Off rollout, and this latest episode of the trunk tour sparked a lot of conversation.
In this video, we react to the newest Fall Off trunk tour episode where Cole is going city to city, meeting fans, selling CDs and vinyls, and having real conversations. During one stop, he speaks on the album being created with retirement in mind, but makes it clear he can’t say he’s done forever. So is Cole really retiring, or was that just the theme of this era?
We also talk about Ibrahim “Ib” Hamad, Cole’s manager, addressing rumors about Dreamville having tension with Jay-Z. Ib pushed back on the idea of controversy culture and how hip hop keeps comparing artists instead of just enjoying the music. That leads into a bigger conversation about engagement farming, fake beef narratives, and lazy discourse.
Then we get into the song “What If.” Some people are calling it tone deaf or saying Cole only made it to excuse backing out of the battle. I break down why that take is lazy. Biggie actually did try to pull up and talk to Tupac after he was shot. Tupac’s father confirmed it. Treach from Naughty by Nature, who was around during that era, has openly said he wonders what would have happened if they had just sat down and talked. So how are people who weren’t there dismissing the concept when the people who lived it still think about it?
We react to all of that and more from the latest trunk tour episode. Just real hip hop conversation.
