J. Cole established himself long ago as a mesmerizing storyteller who routinely awes fans on wax, on stage and through his artistic videos.
Cole made another unforgettable and contentious appearance at Power 106 when he paid a visit to the L.A. Leakers. J. Cole accepted the radio station’s freestyle challenge, and during the rap session, he made a Bill Cosby reference that sent Twitter into a tailspin.“No Bill Cosby s—, but if they sleeping, then f—’ em,”
Cole caused his and Bill Cosby’s names to trend on Wednesday, May 12, 2021, by unleashing his machine gun-like cadence without pausing for breath once.
Twitter had mixed reactions to those bars, but the fallout from the bit did its promotional job.
Cole was making the rounds in the media ahead of the release of his highly awaited album, The Off-Season, on Friday, May 14. He also has a Slam magazine cover, which follows the rapper’s announcement that he is about to play professional basketball in Africa.
