why put j cole as an example though?
you're just going to confuse people
the kind of predictable non-factor shit posting you come to expect around here from another moronic /pol/ster with terrible taste in music.
wish the mods would sage this shit?

Why do rapper in general try to act so tough? Most of the new era are corny lanklets. Like i genuinely believe I could beat almost every current relevant rapper in a fight. And honeslty how fucking hard can it possibly be to grow up in a shitty neighborhood....Can't you just stay in your house most of the time? It all seems like such a huge facade.

why? because the person in this thread knows very little about music. you also know that responses from samefaggin' race baiters will continue to bump this thread with stale memes. overused one liners and have nothing to contribute when it comes to actually discussing music.
they're literally the worst people on this board by far. Worse than grimesfags even
Because black rappers can rap nigga with nigga

you would think he would of preprepared some kind of bullshit list to respond with instead of being such an obvious /pol/ shitposter that spends his free time trying to incite racial hatred on a music forum. oh well, at least it wasn't another fantano thread i guess.
Why wouldn't they?

Because no matter how rich they become, they'll still be niggas.

You can take the boy out the hood, but you cant take the hood out the boy

J Cole is the worst example you could possibly use. He never acts hood.

Because rap is a genre of alpha males. Popular topics are bitches, money and violence (which isn't a bad thing depending on context and lyrics). You want to be respected by your peers and not stepped on to look like a bitch. Some rappers take this further than others and try too hard like Soulja Boy for example. But others are just defending themselves. Eminem explains this perfectly on Sing For a Moment.

They're vocal actors. It is entertainment.
