J. Cole and Drake worked together on a song called “First Person Shooter,” and it has caused a discussion about who did better on the track. JID, another rapper from Dreamville, was asked about this and said he thinks J. Cole did better. He also mentioned that they like Drake but leaned toward Cole. JID also mentioned another collaboration involving Yeat and Drake, but it wasn’t clear how he felt about that.
The song “First Person Shooter” is competing for the top spot on the Billboard Hot 100 chart. If it reaches number one, it will be J. Cole’s first chart-topper. Drake also has another song with Yeat that could reach number one, which would add to his collection of number one hits.
Drake is close to tying Michael Jackson for the most number one hits by a male solo artist on the Billboard Hot 100. Ice Cube appreciated that J. Cole mentioned his BIG3 basketball league on the song and thanked him on Twitter.
Drake and J. Cole have spent a lot of time together this year, even performing together on Drizzy’s tour. They might have more collaborations in the future, as Drake asked to be on J. Cole’s next album during a performance in Montreal.
