We live in a country where women - particularly Black women - do not feel safe. On top of that, she had a tweet critiquing an also unnamed rapper for not contributing when the George Floyd protests first broke out. But wait, Cole didn’t even mention her in the songĬole didn’t mention her, but she fits the description pretty well. Instead, she’s built a whole community through her book club that constantly reads about Black life, struggles and Black advancement. She doesn’t make music as much anymore, though. Her music is mostly centered around the Black experience in America - particularly that of Black women - and how she grew up in Chicago. She first jumped on the scene for most people when she appeared on Chance The Rapper’s Acid Rap mixtape. Most people on the internet seem to think he’s talking about Chicago rapper, poet and freedom fighter Noname. And he felt that one of her Tweets was an affront on him.Īnd this is where the controversy starts. He says she’s done all the reading and done all the work to validate her arguments and critiques, but also lashes out at people occasionally. Immediately after that line, he transitions into his critique of an unnamed Black woman who he says is “way smarter” than he is and is angry at all the systems the country is built on and constantly rants on Twitter about it. He starts off by saying people think he’s “deep, intelligent” and are “fooled by my college degree.” Where does the critique come in?
One that serves as both a confession and then a critique - of someone else and, eventually, himself at the end. He expresses some deep insecurities in this one that we don’t normally hear. The song’s news peg is the current discussion about racial injustice and police brutality across the country. Instead of folks coming back with the usual “wow, this is fire” reaction they’d had to to his other songs, this time fans chastised him for the song’s content. The results probably weren’t what Cole expected, though. That happened again on Tuesday night when Cole dropped a new song for the first time in about a year called “Snow on tha Bluff.” It felt like everyone took a four minute pause to go listen to the song. When he drops anything - be it a song, or an album, or even something as simple as a tweet - people listen, read and watch.
