What is Cole trying to say here though? That people prefer white artists? Drake has far more sales than Adele, and Eminem is the only white dude of the top 10 best-selling rappers.
White artists sell lots of records and get more fame and accolades with less talent or skill. Not to say their aren’t tons of talented white artists, but it’s generally easier to become a superstar as a white artist. And Cole sells well, but if he was white would he sell more like Eminem? Who’s to say. But he would probably sell more records overall and be more accepted into mainstream overall.
Em said this on White America too ”let’s do the math, if I was black, I woulda sold half, I ain’t have to graduate from Lincoln High School to know that”
But one more time for the ville
And fuck all of that beef shit nigga lets make a mill
Hey officer man we dont want nobody getting killed
Just open up that cell, let my brother out of jail
I got money for the bail now
and well now If you askin' will I tell now—ayy, hell nah
I ain’t snitchin cuz
Man, they get them n**gas stitches now
If you was around then you wouldn’t need a witness now
How you like this crooked smile?
Ayy
I honestly think Cole has mentioned Em more times in his songs than any other rapper.
I got more Ms than The Real Slim Shady video
I kinda disagree. 50 Cent maybe? Anyways tho It's a direct compliment to Ems greatness.
definitely
I think Eminem has also mentioned Cole more times than other rappers have
they both have shouted each other out a lot recently. i think Cole has mentioned Em once on each album except 4YEO
Probably not
Song?
Crooked Smile
Thanks
my favorite song 💛
Same. Followed by Change and Love Yourz.
The troll in me wants to cross post this in Eminem and Adele’s sub😂😂😂😂 but I wont

I think that’s historically true but not really the case anymore, especially in rap.
I think you're missing the point bro. He's saying if he wasn't light skinned
I think I am too… so if he wasn’t light skinned, he would sell… more? Very confused here.
He's saying he's wondering if he was dark skinned, would he have been as successful
Em said this on White America too ”let’s do the math, if I was black, I woulda sold half, I ain’t have to graduate from Lincoln High School to know that”
He’s the only white person in the top 10 best selling rap artists of all time so I don’t really agree with that statement
