Now, you all know that I rock with J. Cole. I’ve been a fan of the man since he was rapping on the “I Really Mean It” beat. I stuck with him through some of his cornier punchlines (ex.: “I let you feel like you the [ish], but boy you can’t out-fart me”), cornier songs […]

When your song interpolates a Nas bar, you’ve got some big shoes to fill. Thankfully, for me and for the artist himself, D.C.’s Stealf Soulja does so and does so well.

Well, damn. That’s all I can really say about this one.
