"J. Cole's Controversial Apology: Addressing Kendrick Lamar Diss and Transphobic Bars"

J. Cole's surprise mixtape "Might Delete Later" showcases his competitive nature in the rap game, with tracks that veer between compelling and lackluster. The record includes an apology to Kendrick Lamar for a track featuring repurposed Jay-Z bars and creaking metaphors, and while it has its moments of rhythmic and textural appeal, it also features instances of indistinct verbal pyrotechnics. Despite its shortcomings, the mixtape displays Cole's determination and includes tracks with compelling elements and a subtle integration of drill's wobble into a less industrial sound palette.
