At the 2024 BET Awards, Trae explained, ‘I watch blogs and I watch headlines make it as if he [Cole] was just trying to get away or duck any type of situation. And that wasn’t the case. What people have to realize is that’s just not the type of energy bro got.’
Trae added that Cole is focused on himself, his kids, and staying in his lane. He emphasized that Cole isn’t one to engage in unnecessary conflict, saying, ‘So everybody wanted to see him rumble and not knowing a lot of us came up together. We’re partners. So for me, being a real brother to him, you got to respect if somebody like,
Man, you know what, bro? I know I’m dope. I’m not questioning myself. I just feel like that’s just not the energy that I’m on.
Meanwhile, other industry heavyweights like T.I. and Black Thought had similar takes. They praised J. Cole’s maturity in apologizing to Kendrick Lamar, especially after the diss on
7 Minute Drill.
Cole’s decision to make amends rather than escalate the situation earned him a lot of respect from his peers. In the end, the Trae Day Weekend was not just about flashy gifts but also about highlighting the importance of staying true to oneself and maintaining one’s values.
In sum, the 2024 Trae Day Weekend showcased J. Cole’s classy new ride and his commendable maturity in the industry.
