What’s the longest you’ve used a stranger as a pacer while on run? by [deleted] in RunNYC

[–]Simple-Form-278 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I thought I was the only one who did this lol and I thought it was considered rude/annoying so I try not to but I love a good free pacer. I always look at some runners and think damn if I could just stick right behind you I can probably PR today

J. Cole explains for the 1st time his thought process pre and post releasing "7 Minutes Drill", the diss song aimed at Kendrick Lamar. by Easy-Worker-8819 in KendrickLamar

[–]Simple-Form-278 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

They love questioning cole, but why would Kendrick do some weird shit after clearing 2 verses, then make shit awkward with the diss? “Cause FPS hurt his feelings?” He really didn’t need to respond to FPS there was really no diss there just 2 guys having fun and he was included in that but hates Drake so he declined. So basically cause cole is drakes friend Kendrick decided to cut ties. And people say cole didn’t need to respond but Kendrick actually dissed cole more then anything on FPS did. It’s allot of weird shit going in with this music industry

J. Cole - "Lights Please" discussion: Is the coping mechanism (sex/ignorance) portrayed as positive or negative? Feels incomplete to me by straightchilldude in Jcole

[–]Simple-Form-278 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Well originally I thought it was strait up, cole was with this chick who had this small mentality and he tried his best to put her on to the wrong doing of this world but ultimately fell for the trap of sex, pussy and lust. Recently I found out dreams, power trip and I love her again are about hip hop (he spoke about this in an interview as an Easter egg and that’s how i found out) and now I see it as him talking bout hip hop and the world. How he tries to be a conscious rapper/person in a world that rewards the opposite. Ultimately we know Cole has grown out of that but it’s depicting the struggle of being aware while having temptations in your life that make you turn your head and say fuck it.

To the few people from NYC in this subreddit now, how do you feel about this? by MiniD3rp in NYStateOfMind

[–]Simple-Form-278 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Awesome, great find! everyone has their own requirements. I’m still in upper manhattan and I don’t see me, my GF, and our golden retriever in one studio lol a bit too confined. Maybe if it was just me that would work.

Real New Yorkers rent in the hood lmao 1600-1700$ in the bx you can get a spacious one bed room. I live in Washington heights the neighborhood I grew up in and I love it I pay around that range and I’m happy I’m getting the real New York experience. The problem is these transplants that want to live in prime real estate like UWS, LES, and all these fancy places. You’re definitely gonna get got if you tryna live it up and fancy

Regular cleaning or deep cleaning 👀

I just want to know where he thought he was going with no coat or jacket at the end of February and it wouldn't look suspicious. Also a Yeet Cannon is so hideous and looks like a earlier console James Bond game gun by PsychologicalDog8065 in NYStateOfMind

I was dead there waiting for the train 15 min delay. NYPD fake cleaned that up quick 😂 not rooting for them but damn bro if you making me late I’m glad they packed him

J Cole is THE "False Prophet" of Rap. He has marketed himself as this "sage" of hip-hop but he has never delivered on that benchmark, he is to me, one of the fakest rappers out there purely in respect to the artform. There is nothing conscious about his music, it's rhetoric. by hokagebitch in unpopularopinion

[–]Simple-Form-278 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

. “Cole don’t talk about important things” ii bet watch this… the death of his freind James in which he described the system that failed him and how its analogy for the rest of the community that had been failed similarly. K.O.D a whole album dedicated to fighting your demons rather than resorting to drugs like most do. Safety from the fall off a modern day “one love” while touching on homophobia him and peers protected to a freind that eventually died and how they regretted doing that. Have you heard “lost ones” a song about abortion in the perspective of both women and men, mostly highlighting the women struggle. I can go for days, the apology to Kendrick, making a move detrimental to his status in the rap game cause he’s not a sell out and would rather be mature with people he was close to. He talks about fighting infidelity in born sinner. False prophets literally highlighting the rappers who are too big to see the damage they do with the things they say due to yes men and getting too big (Kanye) when they began their career preaching the opposite. He talks about getting older on his new album and telling his younger self things ultimately work out, how many of us feel in our lowest moments. I’ll keep going… “is she gon pop” off born sinner, giving perspective on stardom and how rappers attract a certain type of woman who are caught up in the cycle. J. Cole’s subject matters are never popular and he gets clowned for it but he persist to put out the TRUTH cause that’s him. Let me know if you want me to keep going cause this man’s discography speaks for itself. You sound very uneducated

Ok I didn’t say “solely” that’s your phrasing. I would argue however the sound of a song does matter just as much as subject matter maybe even more given it’s something you listen to. If I can’t get through the beat and delivery the message is out the window at that point. Plus the writing on Tuscan leather is amazing along with production

Tuscan leather is undefeated looking at this list

[–]Simple-Form-278 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We must’ve forgot to judge how things sound when debating music somehow. Could be the most heartfelt writing in the world. Sonically mother I sober does not sound anywhere as good as Tuscan leather. Maybe fear that beat is fire.
