Kanye West went on another rant about J. Cole, claiming he hates the North Carolina emcee.
“I hate J. Cole. It can’t even be called music. I hate J. Cole,” he said on livestream alongside Drake affiliate, Top5.
He continued: “And it’s something about both J. Cole and Kendrick that kinda, that leaves me sorta like…it reminds me of each other and s–t like that. It’s just not that sauce to me.”
Over the past few months, Ye has dragged several other rappers on social media and in interviews. During the livestream, he took aim at Kendrick Lamar once again, whom he has been ranting against since Lamar’s Super Bowl performance.

“Anybody that say Kendrick is one of their favorite rappers, don’t know about rap, doesn’t know about real rap,” he added.
This isn’t the first time Ye has dragged J. Cole online, he also claimed months ago that nobody listens to J. Cole after they lose their virginity.
“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 tweeted.
