I agree completely. Like, Nas is pretty much always pretty good, technically, but he's never really as interesting as he can be. I'm usually willing to check out his work, though.
And J. Cole... Yeah, I know. I want to see what he's going to do, too (I mean, Jay-Z usually supports good artists), but I'm not expecting much. He just comes off as a normal mixtape rapper to me. Maybe one who's got a tad more charisma than your average boring underground rapper, but he's just never seemed creative enough to hold my attention. He's definitely not the rapper who's going to "save hip hop." Not that hip hop needs to be saved, anyway.
