Lil Durk recently opened up to RapCaviar about making his latest single, "All My Life" fit J. Cole, and he made a statement that is getting a lot of attention on social media.
Speaking about J. Cole's lyrical abilities, Durk explained, "He went crazy. I had to listen to it like four times. You know I ain’t super big on lyricist-type rappers. Cole was one of them ones that, like, him and [JAY-Z], you gotta play them 50 times to catch what they’re saying.
"Like, if you listen to Lil Wayne right now and you heard some sh*t 10 years ago that you just catch onto today. But [Cole] definitely gave me one of them verses and I appreciate it. ‘Cause he ain’t even have to, for real. He could’ve given us anything."
The comment about "lyricist-type rappers" led to Durk getting some backlash on social media, with many people pointing out that he's collaborated with plenty of lyrical rappers, including Nas and Big Sean. Durk has yet to respond to the criticism.
