The Controversy Behind J. Cole's "Snow On Tha Bluff"
Intro:
Snow On Tha Bluff is a new conscious record from J. Cole, although many are displeased with his approach and thoughts on this record. While many assumed this would be a track directly talking the current state of America and its race relations, he actually voices disagreement with an unnamed woman’s approach to her solution. It comes together like a conversation Cole is having with himself internally, over some beautiful guitar.
Overall:
For the most part are think the controversy and criticism around this song is warranted. I actually agree with Cole though, in terms of not seeing her approach as being the most productive for black people in America. However, there’s no way to actually prove what the best approach would be. It’s all a matter of opinion and perspective, which is different for every one of us. In my opinion. Cole should’ve either provided his alternative approach in a full song or just solely added his perspective without judging someone else’s. He’s just expressing his thoughts honestly though; which he 100% has the right to do. Thank you all for reading and be sure to listen to the single yourself with the link below.
