While it may be a Cole World, Carolina emcee J. Cole has remained relatively low key this summer when it comes to new music. Though not one to disappoint his hefty fan base Cole returned to the spotlight this week with the release of his enthralling The Cure freestyle. On The Cure, the DJBooth favorite tackles Kanye West’s production on Watch The Throne‘s Lift Off as he eagerly raps his way through about four minutes worth of puns and punchlines. Cole goes extra hard at the haters as he raps, “What you made last week I just tipped the f**kin’ waiter…Ni**a f**k yo Twitter, b**ches follow me in real life.”  While The Cure isn’t attached to any particular project from Cole, the emcee is hard at work on his sophomore album as well as a joint album with fellow emcee Kendrick Lamar.

This song first appeared on the Rap Chart on July 30, 2012

It feels like cole is just going through the motions but still fire and better than your average rapper.

I'm with Z, but I wont be so lenient on the rating. His flow is the same from song to song, which like Z said, is better than the majority of rappers. But going through the motions is almost and understatement in this case

I rarely ever dislike a J Cole song but this is one of them.

A cure is exactly what this was, it has rekindled my interest in J. Cole. I have had his entire discography on repeat since last night, I'm as ecstatic as I was when Friday Night Lights came out.

This some solid J. Cole, but I am growing tired of his lyrics, honestly.
"I ain't that nigga who be rappin bout rappin" (Freddie Gibbs, 'Flamboyent')
" Is this nigga capable of a genuine moment of happiness yo?" (Ghostface, talking about J. Cole on is blog)
I always think of these phrases when I hear him now.

Love the sound of the track but Cole sounds bored. Did he lose the hunger he had in 09?

1. J. Cole is hip hop not rap. 2. Cole killed this beat, he should of been on WTT.
