It's crazy...pops catching the deeper meanings, while the son's skimming the meanings as he can understand them

When this dropped, Cole was the First artist in 25 years to go platinum without a single feature. I remember I used to have it on repeat for weeks. Do the whole album! It’s a classic.

WOW....just realized the most important part of this was missed. He says there's no such thing as a life that's better than yours. How profound!!!!! Your life is not worse than anyone else's either...because it's simply that, YOURS. Since we only live once it's time that you recognize right NOW that whatever station you are at in life YOU still have the grace and beauty of THIS moment. Redeem the time to do those things that are valuable. It's songs like this that make you reflect and wonder and think that move me. So So So very marvelously done.

The message is if you seek happiness in materialistic things you will never truly be happy because you will always want better. True happiness is found in the appreciation of things you have, more so the things money can't buy. Time, love, respect etc

Note!! I love watching this. It’s like watching my 18 year old mind and my current 49 year old mind listen and comment on the same song. The way a songs meaning can change over your lifetime is unreal. Love the energy you two have.

j cole is such an amazing lyricist man. All time favorite artist

“If you don’t understand that…..GOOD!” Such an important thing to say!Pops got alot of wisdom!

Pops would love " neighbors " by J cole 🔥🔥 y'all gotta react to J cole albums , cole world : the sideline story , 2014 forest hill drive , 4 your eyez only & KOD. 🥶💗

I knew your pops would love this song. This song is life changing for the masses

Pops has to react to so many good story telling songs J. Cole has. Close, Brackets, Friends, Once An Addict are such good songs J. Cole has. And he has even MORE better story telling songs.

I remember being young and hearing my dad drop wisdom but felt too cool to listen to him. Your pops was providing such dope commentary and knowledge. Awesome reaction fam

“You either going to be a good example or a horrible warning” I wish I had this guidance growing up fr , you lucky to have your pops

Yes!! I love how pops breaks down the songs. You guys need to do more J. Cole songs. Your pops would love deep songs like 2. Face, Grown Simba, Lil Ghetto Nxxga, Farewall, Miss America, Lights Please, Lost Ones, Get Free, Be Free, New York Times, and Johnny P's Caddy!

This is old J.Cole but this ain’t OLD J.Cole

Wish pops would’ve listened to this when it first dropped, I remember when this first came out and my reaction and I’m glad there’s still people discovering j cole

One of my favorite songs by J Cole and your pops explained it perfectly. I love listening to this song with my little ones in hopes they will learn something from it.

Nah this a must fr

Pops got me hype watching this mann. I love when Cole gets through to people.

He’s right, my whole life all I knew was the grind because I wanted to be a lawyer. I’ll tell you it was one hell of a grind and 5 years ago I graduated law school and passed the patent BAR exam, I can’t even put into words how happy I was for achieving my goal… well for 2 weeks anyways. I thought when I graduated law school I’d have a high paying job and have all this time to spend with my wife and it was great for a while but something was missing. It wasn’t until I became a father to my little boy 3 years ago that I found out what was missing. Now I have something to grind for again. Because every time I see my little man smile it feels like exactly how I felt when I graduated law school. I’m rather ashamed to admit it but for me it took having children to understand life is more than chasing the bag. There are levels to success but the highest level of success is being the reason someone else succeeds. None of my personal accomplishments in life mean close to seeing the accomplishments of my little boy.

@brockjensen2473 MANNNNN!!!!!!!! I so love this!!!! BIG UPS and congrats on the accomplishment of the bar. I love how music can bring so many different walks together. Patent atty?!?!? we need to talk!!! What's REALLY dope though is that the yung fella giving new reasons to grind! Almost snatched an allergic reaction because I feel that. I wish it was possible to bottle that energy up and sell it because that focus makes the difference. Nothing hits harder than when you become a hit with your kids. There is ZERO shame in realizing it took you to have children to understand there's more than a bag in life. I wish so doggone badly that I had grasped that earlier in life. If one chases their passion instead of their pension the bag comes anyway! It's the law of Magnetism. THAT is the stuff that money can't buy. Thank you for your comment sir....just made my day!!

ITs crazy seeing how pops breaking this shit down line by line, while his son there a lil uninterested. It shows what music means to older folks vs younger folks.

J.Cole-no role modelz, J.Cole-Folger crystal, J.Cole-I get up, J.Cole-grown Simba, J.Cole-High for hours(pops will love this no cap)

This whole album gave me some wisdom through some tough times when I needed it for sure. Love the reactions y’all! Hope we get the privilege to see y’all react to Jcole some more 💪🏼

It’s crazy to see the difference of wisdom between the two age groups. Listen to your Dad my man, he has it figured out

Pops a real one and how he explains it makes me love music even more man big ups to the pops he dnt neva miss the bar no cap

bro i love your pops bro he was so real when talking about preseptions in music because there are so many songs that ive listened to and never understood the meaning until coming back one day and getting a whole new view and sense of appreciation for the song. truly works of art

Finally COLE ONE OF THE BEST TO EVER DO IT

Loved this. It was super wholesome, and It's beautiful seeing y'all interact. I'd definitely recommend 03 Adolescence and Apparently from the same album

Pops would love alone at prom by tory lanez

I remember when 50 Cent said in an interview once „some people just know how to live better regardless of money“ that always stuck with me I work hard but I never let money be my master

I been subscribed but I’m the biggest Cole fan and happy af for this gang 🙏🔥🔥🥶🌎 ColeWorld

one of my favourite songs of all time. COLEWORLD

I loved this!!! Much love to your pops, he’s a real one, full of wisdom, please soak it up and enjoy every moment with him 🙏✝️‼️

I love dad’s reaction🤞🏾 this is one of my favorite Cole songs.

When I first moved to NC when I was 9 Fayetteville was the first city we moved to but it’s really a melting pot bc of Fort Brag. Met so many ppl you’d never believe here. Don’t sleep.

Stumbled on you two..great chemistry an pop got that ear an that wisdom.. Shoutout to u both!

Shout out to you Josh and Pops! Been a fan for a long time. I loved watching this one with y'all it was new to me too and I'm a Cole fan so thank you for showing me something new. I have always said, people who show you new music are important and watching this with ya'll and hearing the bars I was stopping the track and jumping out of my chair right along with ya'll. Pops your comment on how women can minimize men, is on point. Ladies, you think you want that baller of a man that ain't had nothin but a silver spoon in his mouth his whole life... You done missed the boat. The real men out there are those who grew up in the struggle, come from the dirt and you BOTH encourage and elevate each other through love, honor and loyalty and vice versa. You ain't never been rich until you have something money CAN'T buy.... You only get those riches when you 'Love Yours.' Keep moving Josh and Pops!

😂😂😂 I love how green you guys are to the lyrics and it comes off as genuinely pure opinions. Keep it up guys 💪🏽

POP WAS IN HIS FEELS for sureeeeeee lmao

Josh! You have a great father! Love this! I feel his love he has for you!! 💯👍🏾

This dropped almost 10 years ago and it still hits

Unbelievable truth and reaction from pops, as a massive Cole fan who related to a lot of what he raps about. it's good to see someone who wants to said that "good example" for their kids and be able to talk about that

thank god this album is pretty good i love that yall are taking this trip

I like that you and your pops react together. That actually a lesson in itself. Your pops has a lot of wisdoms. Also, money does make you happy. It’s just temporary happiness. Once you get it, it’s a never ending chase. Which leads you back to appreciating the small things that you thought were small. But in the end it is way bigger than money.

This song always breaks me down, man. I remember hating life for the circumstances my mom had to live through to raise my brother and I. Your pops is a great man 👌🏼

Listened to this everyday on the way to school my freshman year - a reason for me seeing this on thanksgiving, God Bless and have a good thanksgiving 🖤

bro, pops really know what j cole is saying, he got a special feeling, he has a unique perception of what the music is saying, he understands that the music affects whoever is listening in a unique way

Pops need to react to the whole “4 Your Eyez Only” album for sure! Top tier tight there.

Im getting this song tattooed on me, this song has such an impact on me.

“It doesnt have to say anything to you, thats the beauty of music” beautiful way to put it. Man.

I love pop’s reactions he’s a deep thinker

I hope to god that you an pops kick back and talk other then just on this! He is wise hearing him speak is music straight knowledge!! Blessings king

i felt everything that your dad felt, but i am just 20 years old, but it feels like i am living a life of 40 years old man.

I don’t think money buys happiness but it takes away a lot of the problems that come from being broke 💯

I love the dual perspective in these videos.

Cole actually said this was his favorite song that he’s written 💪🏽

Im an old school hip hop fan but j cole is one of the few new school cats i mess wit. He actually has substance to his music

Love this 🙏🏾

First YT comment ever, pops needs to do the whole album. All bangers No skips

im 20 pops and most of the stuff you reference Ive did and heard. That do you like me note have yo heart beating crazy.

"You either gon to be a good example or a horrible warning" Pops dropping some knowledge broo😭😭🔥🔥

This is a dope Chanel hope by next year y’all at 500k or a 1 million

that 2014 forest hills drive was the first album i ever kept on repeat .. true artwork

I been waiting 9 days for the whole album reaction

Bro ima keep it 100 with you, the video was dope but the reaction from Pops made me stay and sub keep that man at an arm's length bro fr fr you got a gem of a father there much love to yall

I love your pops reactions. I like how he breaks stuff down

J. Cole entire catalog is fire BUT YOU HAVE TO DO THESE SONGS IF NOT ALL DEFINITELY THE FIRST 3 1. Too Deep For The Intro 2. Lights Please 3. Dollar and A Dream III 4. Nobody’s Perfect 5 Premeditated Murder

8:00 thats appreciated lil bro... now what makes you happy is being I position to take care of the people you care about

Loved this reaction

I’ve listen to rap most my life and a few years ago before this album dropped I thought I couldn’t relate to rap music anymore 🤷🏽‍♂️ guns and clubs ain’t me, when jcole dropped this I kinda felt connected again like I could see myself in the music again, a lot of rappers help me and I’m just happy to be in a time where musics like this exist

Finally tuned into the 🐐 Cole man thank you 🙏 🔥🔥🔥

Aye j.cole is a living legend for real 2014 Forest hills Drive is a certified Hood classic album that had no features I'm new to your channel right now I just subscribe to your channel right now 🗣️💯 keep up the good work you guys did that

When pops said you're either going to be a good example or a horrible warning...that was profound!

Pops is speaking facts. I wish my pops was like this

never heard of this song til now thanks

Talking about not a lot of numbers to THIS.. cmon now we mess with it just as hard as you OG😹✊
