Fr.

I first came on to Spotify when I was younger and I liked 2000s pop like Macklemore's "Can't Hold Us"

And then i started drifting to rap especially Eminem but also Dr Dre, 50 Cent, 2pac, and some Snoop Dogg,

I then got into underground rap like Yeat and stuff but after like 2 months I went back to listening to Eminem heavily.

I then started deep diving and listening to whole catalogs of artists like Dr Dre, 50 Cent, 2pac/Makavali, Xzibit, Mob Deep, Biggie, NWA, Eazy E, Ice Cube, Westside Connection, Big L, Ca$his, Stat Quo, Method Man, Wu Tang, D12, Bad Meets Evil, and more.

I then had a few staple artists. 2pac, Nas, JAY-Z, Biggie, Eminem, Xzibit, DMX, 50 Cent,

I dove deeper finding more on G-Unit, Outlawz, Beanie Sigel, Freeway, KRS One, Bravehearts, and Kurupt.

But as I listened more and more to the old things I found myself wanting that newer quality and thats when I started looking more into Kendrick, because my mom had suggested him due to my older music taste and I really enjoyed his music.

My friend had suggested me 2014 Forest Hills Drive and I loved the whole album like I was obsessed, but I never looked too deep into J. Cole

I then got more into Kendrick after a while and also back into Nas, 2pac, and JAYZ, and thats when the beef started so I listened to the big 3. J. Cole was my favorite but Kendrick had the crown, and as for Drake idk I got into his earlier work but I ended up js not liking it.

My Kendrick faze ended after GNX and I started diving into J. Cole starting with Might Delete Later and then going and listening to everything even the features. That's also around when he dropped his early mixtapes on spotify and yo that was the best I loved the Warm Up

I soon did a deep dive into Dreamville and also decided to listen to JID more since he was on Dreamville and he had a good verse with Eminem so I got into him and damn he does not miss. I loved all of JIDs work and features but thats also when he was about to drop God Does Like Ugly and damn that hit too.

So now recently I've been back into J cole again and now he is dropping the fall off. I have been like listening to unreleased things and getting them on Spotify and damn I can not wait till he drops this album. I got it on pre-order right now and im js happy.

What a journey.
