Fat Joe spoke about J. Cole’s apology to Kendrick Lamar amid his beef with Kendrick Lamar and says J. Cole should not have apologized and that he “lost a stripe” after he did.
Cole did release a lengthy diss track aimed at K.Dot, but after it was released, he deleted the track and apologized, and stayed out of the remainder of the beef.
“I had one of the biggest, most dangerous beefs with 50 Cent, and I was sitting next to him at the game yesterday, having the best time in the world. We’re brothers. When you’re called out in Hip-Hop, you gotta respond. I’m a big fan of J. Cole, but it started from that,” Joe explained on the Jay Shetty Podcast.
He continued, “He probably saw that it could get real messy and real ugly and so he said, ‘Yo, you know this ain’t me I don’t want no parts of it.’ But, he definitely got a stripe off… They took a stripe off that because in Hip-Hop, when they call you out, you come out.”
Since the beef, Cole has been quiet. K.Dot has also been quiet but Akademiks says Drake has a sneak diss ready to drop to reignite the beef.
