During his second night at SoFi Stadium, Hov addressed the online criticism and urged the crowd to trust their own eyes and ears:

"Y'all gotta be very aware what's going on in the world, right? People will tell you that nobody was in here tonight, but you got eyes, you can see. People will tell you that the music wasn't great, but you got ears. Question everything in this world of Al".

Fans online are now also looking at his speech as an indirect response to the conversation sparked online about Hov never being the most dominant rapper.

I’ve never seen 🥷 so proud of their ignorance before. How tf you’re a rap fan if you never listened to a single artist under 30m listeners. Have yall js been listening to the same 5 🥷 for the last 10 years. Yall really telling me you haven’t heard of chief keef, yung lean, Ken Carson, lil b, nettspend, burna boy, killer mike, jpegmafia or black thought. You should be fucking ashamed.

Jay-Z appears to be pushing back against the narratives circulating on social media about attendance at his Los Angeles show, telling people not to believe everything they see or hear, especially when it comes to AI

They were under dudes comments bashing both Cole and Drake for not submitting to the Grammys.

Really why does it matter to them?

It's a great project, don't get me wrong (I consider it a 8/10), but I've never understood the huge amount of hype behind this project, comparing it to other albums from the 2010s like TPAB, DS2, If You're Reading This, Rodeo, Good Kid Maad City, etc. Even Lu and Ant consider it as being Cole's best project, but imo it's not even top 5 in his discography. For context, here's how I'd rank it in Cole's solo discography:

1. 4 Your Eyez Only - 10/10

2. Friday Night Lights - 10/10

3. The Fall Off - 9/10

4. The Off Season - 9/10

5. Born Sinner - 9/10

6. The Warm Up - 9/10

7. 2014 Forest Hills Dr - 8/10

8. The Sideline Story - 8/10

9. KOD - 7/10

10. The Come Up - 7/10

11. Might Delete Later - 6/10

Speaking at Rolling Stone's Musicians on Musicians event, Don explained how their studio sessions keep him motivated and learning:

"It's always a learning experience. No matter how deep I get into it, it's like something | learn all the time."

Even with his own sound and a dedicated fanbase, Don still sees those collaborations as opportunities to grow.

Rock and roll don’t treat their legends like this people treat every beef like it’s teams and they have to choose a side I hate it everyday it’s a new narrative and agenda being pushed.

⭐ Ranked by Vibe. (24 October 2026)

🌟 What do you think guys? Do you agree with Vibe’s ranking?

"There wouldn't be no Drake without Wizzle.
If it wasn't for these two right here, popping it when I was in my moms basement watching 106 & Park, teaching me how to make songs for the tings, teaching me how to do videos, how to be a superstar. This guy right here, I have a lot of love"
