Thoughts?

ask the woke twitter people

I need to hear her on a full album of Madlib beats because she slaughtered this one.

this beef is corny

noname is petty

cole is petty*

haven’t heard either song and ik it’s petty

y r u guys still here

I don’t think I could care any less about this beef

Corny and petty. Song wasn’t necessary at all

When we are divided we are easier to conquer.

What Noname should have done is told Cole more about the issue which was Cole’s original criticism of her in the first place. This track just unnecessarily widens the beef and detracts from the original issue that both songs were about to begin with. Noname stupid for this one.

Ngl it’s pretty entertaining to watch this unfold, but is a rap beef really the most important thing on the table here? This is a great, quick and snappy verse that I had to go back twice to catch all of, but it still doesn’t diminish the fact that none of this needed to exist in the current climate.

Lmfaooo less than 100k views. Dissing one of the biggest rap artist and still no traction

@genius-moderation pin this shit

make me med so i can pin

this isn’t beef, this is two educated people having a debate about relevant topics over song. Cole actually tweeted this song the moment it dropped, and I’m sure there are have been some behind the scenes convos involving the two, as they have innumerable common connections. I think/hope that this will result in a public conversation similar to Pump x Cole’s interview.

While Cole was justified in responding to Noname’s tweet, his timing was bad, as there were plenty of more pertinent things he could have written a song about. I was initially super excited because one of my fav rappers had dropped a new song, but once I calmed down from that, I realized that he had misstepped, especially by talking about her tone. in a time where black women were suffering, he didn’t talk at all about the white people attacking his people but only talked about a black woman that he assumed was calling him out. Cole has made this type of response song before (“1985” & “everybody dies”), but with the current climate of America, a lot of people digested it the wrong way.

Noname had every right to respond, and she did it in such a straight to the point way that it was amazing. the difference between her song and Cole’s is that she criticized him while directly speaking on the larger issues, shifting the conversation back to what is important. whether or not her initial tweet was necessary is up for debate, but I don’t think it warranted an entire song from Cole.

I love both songs, and I’m excited to see where their relationship goes.

again, THIS IS NOT BEEF.

also, COLE IS NOT A MISOGYNIST.
