J. Cole recently revealed the reason behind retracting his diss track aimed at Kendrick Lamar, citing a desire to avoid unnecessary controversy and conflict. During his performance at the 2024 Dreamville Festival, Cole paused to apologize to Lamar, indicating a shift in his approach. In his latest single, ‘Port Antonio,’ Cole explained that he chose to pull the plug on the beef to prevent exploitation by those seeking publicity and profit.
He emphasized the importance of maintaining positive relationships over engaging in unnecessary feuds, highlighting the potential consequences of escalating tensions.
The song arrives almost exactly a year after J. Cole and Drake’s “First Person Shooter” started Hip Hop’s civil war.
