In a fiery rant, Kanye West has once again blasted Kendrick Lamar and J. Cole, denouncing their rapping abilities.

During a livestream with Top5, West didn’t hold back when talking about the hip hop duo. West said, “I hate J. Cole. It can’t even be called music. I hate J. Cole”. He added, “And it’s something about both J. Cole and Kendrick that kinda, that leaves me sorta like-it reminds me of each other and sh*t like that. It’s just not that sauce to me”.
West also called out anyone who rated Kendrick, saying, “Anybody that say Kendrick is one of their favorite rappers, don’t know about rap, doesn’t know about real rap”.
Kendrick has recently been a frequent target of West’s on social media. West posted on X, “I want Kendrick to always remember that JAY-Z tweet before he ever crosses the line”.
West then claimed that Lamar was copying him: “The last Kendrick album, not that [GNX] but the previous one [Mr. Morale & The Big Steppers], is like a direct copy of [The Life of] Pablo. It’s like, ‘Oh, these are the drums from this song. This is the approach to this song,’”.
He has made it clear that he does not like J. Cole’s music. Earlier this year, West wrote on social media, “I hate J Cole music so much. It’s like between Kendrick and J Cole. I bet you industry plants asked J Cole to diss Drake then we would have been accosted with a J Cole Super Bowl commercial with no SZA song to save it”.
He then wrote: “No one listens to J Cole after loosing [sic] their virginity”.
Yeezy recalled a conversation he had with Drake about the North Carolina rap star: “When I met up with Drake during Donda most of the convo was me telling him he was hurting hip hop by giving J Cole a platform and I was saying how much I loved Future”.
Neither Cole nor Kendrick have ever publicly replied to any of West’s various shots.
