J. Cole said there's one part of his new album that he's not proud of: a track in which he disses Kendrick Lamar. The artist, who dropped his album 'Might Delete Later” on Friday, released a track titled '7 Minute Drill,' which features a verse that takes aim at the fellow rapper. “I’m so proud of that project, except for one part,” Cole said Sunday at his music festival, Dreamville Fest.
Cole on Sunday told the crowd that he tried to “jab” Lamar back in a friendly way, but that it didn’t “sit right.” He said he hopes that Lamar “didn’t feel no way,” but that he would take another diss “on the chin” if Lamar was offended. Footage from Cole's onstage comments circulated on X, where many have spent days discussing his diss track. In the song, Cole says Lamar's second album “To Pimp a Butterfly,” which won best rap album at the 2016 Grammys, put people to sleep.
