Two weeks ago we featured J. Cole's stellar new tune “Middle Child” and now, J. Cole has unleashed a video for his recent single. The T-Minus-produced number hails our praises on a visual now as well. In thee new Mez-directed musique video, Cole shoots beautifully imagery all of which is symbolic.
Rappers’ heads are mounted on walls. Black faces and body parts are being auctioned in an ultra dark meat-themed deli shop. Off his upcoming record, "Revenge of the Dreamers III," the upcoming LP from Cole’s record label Dreamville.
Sometimes like we always say, the truth is best served on a silver platter of a lyrical thesis. This current single proves just that notion. Hip-hop’s prince, aka North Carolina's star boy, tells the tale of the differences between himself and other rappers. Taking himself against the typical predictable, old run of the mill rappers doing and say the same things like a herd of sheep.
Below we've compiled a reflection of our favorite bars that the “Middle Child” has to offer. Both ideologically and artistically.
Dig out the phenomenal “Middle Child” musique below right below!
The game is off balance, I’m back on my shit
I do not snort powder, I might take a sip
I might hit the blunt, but I'm liable to trip
I ain’t poppin' no pill, but you do as you wish
I roll with some friends, I love 'em to death
This watch came from Drizzy, he gave me a gift
Back when the rap game was prayin' I'd diss
They act like two legends cannot coexist
But I'd never beef with a friend for nothin'
If I smoke a rapper, it's gon' be legit
It won't be for clout, it won't be for fame
It won't be 'cause my shit ain't sellin' the same
It won't be to sell you my latest lil' sneakers
It won't be 'cause some nigga slid in my lane
Everything grows, it's destined to change
To the OGs, I'm thankin' you now
Was watchin' you when you was pavin' the ground
I copied your cadence, I mirrored your style
I studied the greats, I'm the greatest right now
Fuck if you feel me, you ain't got a choice
Now I ain't do no promo, still made all that noise
This year gon' be different, I set my intentions
I promise to slap all that hate out your voice."
