J. Cole’s much-anticipated album, The Fall Off, is almost here, and Trae Tha Truth believes it’s going to turn heads. He hinted that naysayers will be particularly shocked, especially those who thought they knew everything about the Kendrick Lamar beef and the subsequent apology.
During an appearance on The Breakfast Club, Trae revealed he had heard the project and emphasized, “Don’t get it fucked up — his album coming. And when it’s coming, it’s probably gonna shock a lot of people.” He also noted that people often form opinions without fully understanding the situation.
Trae Tha Truth has a close relationship with J. Cole and has always disagreed with the narrative that Cole was avoiding the beef with Kendrick. He felt it was necessary for Cole to bow out of the ‘Big 3’ beef after initially dropping and then retracting a diss track.
At the 2024 BET Awards, Trae stated that J. Cole’s decision to step back wasn’t about ducking the situation but about focusing on his own path. “That’s just not the type of energy bro got,” Trae explained. He respects Cole’s choice to stay in his lane and prioritize his family.
Others in the hip hop community, like T.I. and Black Thought, echoed these sentiments, praising Cole for apologizing to Kendrick Lamar. In February, Cole announced that he was in the final stages of finishing The Fall Off, though no release date was given.
Drake further fueled excitement by revealing he’s heard the album and considers it a ‘classic.’ Daylyt also praised the project, calling it “the most amazingest” rapping he’s experienced. He claimed the album is exactly what hip hop needs right now, as the genre is overflowing with ‘trolls.’
Daylyt added, “Cole is going out with a nuclear missile. It’s his last go-around, and he literally was like, ‘I don’t give a fuck about radio; I just wanna show the world my pen before I die.’”
It’s clear that J. Cole’s new album is set to make a massive impact.
