My Problem With Cordae

[@PirateKingGoofy]

I started listening to Krit recently and I feel the same way about the Krit/Cole comparison to how you feel about Cole and Wale. Once you get deeper into that southern rabbit hole you see how Cole can be a bit processed in comparison sometimes. I listened to 4ever is a mighty long time and the whole listen I could hear that Krit had all the same inspirations as Cole but just used them better, I hope the Fall Off is more ambitious. Cole just focuses a bit too much on having dope bars rather than musicality. With Cordae, any criticism of Cole applies to him but significantly more.

[@ReedMySole]

@@PirateKingGoofy krit it one of my favorites. He is a much better song writer than Cole. You totally get it lol. Cold is a good rapper. His music is a bit boring though. And like you said even more so for Cordae.

[@PirateKingGoofy]

@@ReedMySole song writing =\= lyricism. There’s a lot of great lyricists who aren’t good song writers. Like Kendrick said “fuck a double entendre, I want y’all to feel this shit”.

[@JamesAuditi]

Krit is one of the goats But the fact cole focuses on the bars more Means a lot of this shit he says has that "!" moment And its kinda the thing that Krit is lacking tbh Krits music always has me inspired but i never feel like "yoooo that was a crazyyy bar" They borh could use some balance 😂

[@ReedMySole]

@@JamesAuditi krit isn’t good at metaphors and similes because the song is usually a big metaphor. But you right. Krit never had crazy bars. Great song writer though.

[@raydong4680]

@@Swish_Reezy we are music production major college kids, cordae was an invited to do a listening party in our school. He came in our studio, started playing his album, everything was cool. Then a student wanted to ask a question to him while one of the track is done playing, Cordae’s manager basically told the student that he can’t directly talk to Cordae, as a result it got the student pretty pissed. So after another song was played, the student raised his hand and cordae saw him, thinking he has a question to ask, allowed him to say his question, and my boy just said “a lot of the songs on the album sounds mad forgettable”. Cordae stood there for a solid second and responded with “who tf is this nigga?”. The rest is just chaos.

All these rappers out here sounding the same but you got a problem with Cordae sounding like JCole ? If you think Cordae sounds JCole you’re really not giving him a chance plus you said you never listened to a full length Cordae project so how would you know his story ?

[@Jeff-xb8eg]

It's because this style of rap is hard to discern compared to the other ones. The main focus is the lyrics and the delivery and he quite literally does the same thing as cole. Which isnt a bad thing

[@Snowgoon901]

I listened to cordaes first album all the way through a couple times. The criticism is on point. He has nothing of substance to talk about and he's not imaginative enough to come up with his own stories. He's a good rapper on good beats but after a few listens it's time to put it down.

I listened to Cordaes first album on repeat for months, I still listen too it sometimes. It really threw a wrench in what I was listening to at the time and stood out in its own way, it also fit perfectly with where I was in my life. By the time his second album came around, I was excited for it but it didn’t stick with me, I only listened to it the one time. I haven’t even listened to this new record yet. He had some really cool and unique cuts on the YBN album tho

[@nololin82]

My real question is, how do you call your album the Crossroads, have the intro as it is, yet not feature Bone Thugs on it?????

[@danneperry]

Great and informative video, as usual! I like how you view hip-hop as a living, breathing system instead of something static.

[@thehobbiist]

You summed it up perfectly for me cuz I was like I know I’d enjoy Cordae but, I just can’t. I’m excited to see his growth though. I know he’ll be inspiring.

[@eggzinbedz7187]

cordae's debut album stuck with me. i can listen to the lost boy front to back with no skips. the themes, musicality, and soul that he put into that project are what do it for me. he sounded hungry, like he had something to prove. since then none of his stuff has impacted me in a similar way. crossroads was a step in that direction again but it feels like the lost boy was his peak imo.

[@ethocookin]

That Kanye track was easily worst on the album so obviously forced a random Kanye voice memo into a song

[@d.michael372]

I’ve never felt he was a diet J. Cole lol. My thing is I feel like he tries to hard to prove he can rap good. It feels forced and his music just doesn’t connect. It’s like that right hook that misses the jaw but scrapes the ear and back of the neck area. Idk man…

I love the cordae album. Got seven songs in my rotation, but to be fair. I love J. Cole too, so the similarities don’t bother me at all. He does need to do a better job coming up with song ideas. I mean Cole was also intelligent and lived a boring life, but he still came up with some great song ideas.

[@BoinkadelicJones]

I have never been a J.Cole fan, but clicked with Cordae when he was still a part of the YBN collective. Listening to him compared to the other two, he sounded like a breath of fresh air. I hear some of his singles, and I liked Kung Fu quite a bit. Then he dropped The Lost Boy and I liked it, although the J.Cole influence for the first time hit me like a ton of bricks. I mean dog, the production sounded like some early Cole, his cadence and his flow was Cole's, the only thing that made him unique was his tongue thrust that let me get past it (since I find J.Cole's voice boring). I think he also raps like he's an elder statesman in the fame, when he's wet-behind-the-ears and wears his influences on his sleeve. I WANT to like this nigga, he seems like he has a decent head on his shoulders, especially at his age, but he hasn't branched out and it irritates me heavy cuz dude's got potential. After watching your video, it's got me thinking. Did I like him because I was comparing him to Nahmir and the other nigga no one knows? Or was there a spark of greatness in him? At this point, I'm not sure and haven't been shown otherwise

[@newpancakeman]

I find it funny that J. Cole produces for Cordae. His sophomore album was unlistenable to me, but I really liked this one. Im too tired to think of specific reasons rn, but Imma stick around. He needs to do more features and get on some weirder shit, someone like Redveil, someone on Griselda, hell someone besides damn Eminem

[@GerriDobbsOfficial]

Didnt even watch your video yet but by the title alone I got to agree with you. His whole style REEKS of Cole yet his punchlines and wordplay arent on the same level.

I do have problems with J.Cole and Cordae too. Cole spit some bars at hungrier big rappers while Cordae isn't much lacking interest in shaded views of life or experimental artist infused some writing and ideas for our generation today.

[@Awesomite001]

Cordae is a nice guy but he cares too much and ( no offense to y’all ) but he’s trying to prove himself to videos people like y’all. His artist development just doesn’t connect since he like YBN because he took the approach with validation from established artists and raised himself under their credits and co-sign. All his features out and celebrity co-signs just make him this pseudo-industry plant of a rapper when he just needs to work with friends and manage his expectations for the output. I’m not a rapper so I’m not gonna say he’s trash or bad. Just not for me.

[@TheAbyssXD]

Going by this guys logic, every single rapper to ever exist outside of the beginning of rap is a diet somebody. Flows get recycled, even by your favorites, and categorizing cordae because he has better lyricism than the rest of his class is just hypocritical period. If he's not for you thats cool but to disrespect dudes talent and classify him as a diet anyone is just dumb. Your favorite rapper is a diet someone, and so is that someone and so on and so forth. Every rapper has taken a thing or 2 from someone they've idolized that came before them. Doesnt make them a wannabe. Again by your own logic you could be a diet fantano. There's nothing that sticks out as original here. Clearly you were inspired by someone to make your content and share your bias opinions. But you're you correct? You may have drawn inspiration but you're in your own lane right? Let the dude carry the torch for the next generation that may want to listen to someone in their age group but may not be familiar with the past greats of that style of music.

@ReedMySole Most or you? Again going by your logic "most" people don't listen to rap period so in reality most people didn't check out anyone's albums this year. It's negativity. Say it for what it is and don't sugarcoat it in the public eye. When you do that it comes off as envy and "most" people ain't into that type of energy. It's cool to have your opinion but don't be surprised when you start developing a negative community because that's what your projecting out onto their screens. It's hard to grow in this community.

@@MrASAPAB my Kanye video I dropped wasn’t negative. My Tupac video I dropped wasn’t negative. My west runs hiphop video wasn’t negative.

@ “my Kanye video I dropped wasn’t negative” 🤓 - bro gave me 3 videos out of his whole catalog that weren’t negative when he’s saying he’s “not trying to be too negative”
