Wale – Groundhog Day (Prod by Jake One)


If you see a Wale song produced by Jake One, it should be an automatic press-play. We know what this one is about. J Cole’s diss track “False Prophets” dropped yesterday, before his album. Cole made very public comments about Wale’s sensitivity and inability to take criticism, statements that probably could have been said in a private phone call instead of a very public music video. Unlike Kanye and Lil Yachty, J Cole and Wale have been close for a while, and Wale’s heartfelt respone was a first from artists Cole likely spoke about in his new song.

J Cole Drops Documentary, New Track from Album

In preparation of his upcoming album 4 Your Eyez Only, J Cole dropped a 40-minute documetary, “Eyez” and a new video for the diss track “False Prophets.” “Eyez” shows Cole recording in Electric Ladyland studios in New York. “False Prophets” is notable for Cole’s verses presumably about Kanye West, Wale, Drake and Lil Yachty. Cole spends the most time (nearly a verse each) on Kanye and Wale. Cole rebukes Kanye’s recent antics, including his endorsement of Trump while acknowledging Kanye’s recent hospitalization. In his lines likely about Wale, Cole spits of a rapper extremely sensitive to criticsm and deceit. Later in the song, he talks about ghostwriting (Drake) and “Lil Whatever” (Yachty.) You can Watch” False Prophets” below, “Eyez” is at the top of the post.
