Soulja Boy Slams J. Cole After He Said He Initially Didn’t Like His Music: ‘Always Hated on Me… Him and Big Sean’

Cole expressed that the music often soundtracked the parties he attended but also went against his “fake morals.” He then referenced Soulja, admitting he was a “hater” towards the artist before switching his mindset.

“I turned from a hater to an appreciator. Like, what can I find that’s amazing about this? What can I find that’s good about this? What can I find that’s going on?” he shared. “That shit changed me as an artist. I became a better artist.”

As for Big Sean, he was compared to Soulja Boy back in 2011. “Man, I never heard Soulja Boy rap so good,” the Detroit 2 artist responded when asked about sounding similar to Soulja on “Big Nut Bust.”
