YMMV / J. Cole

• Hype Backlash: Fans tend to hype him up in response to his DOUBLE PLATINUM WITH NO FEATURES. In response, many Hip-Hop fans have taken to dismissing J.Cole Stans and J. Cole in general.
• Memetic Mutation:
  • J COLE WENT DOUBLE PLATINUM WITH NO FEATURES.
  • "Nice watch, *click click* run it."
  • "Find God" from "Lion King on Ice" is a popular reaction on Twitter to disgusting things.
  • Following Cole choosing to dip out of the increasingly volatile and ugly beef between Kendrick Lamar and Drake in 2024, hip-hop fans everywhere like to joke about how much of a bullet he dodged in doing so, where as the two titans were hurling horrifying allegations against one another, J. Cole was just minding his own business enjoying the sunshine, watching TV, getting a good night's sleep, etc. When someone actually found J. Cole relaxing on a beach, the meme gained even more traction.
• Signature Song:
  • "Work Out" for his early career, "Power Trip", "No Role Modelz" or "Middle Child" for his later career.
