J. Cole finally responds to Kendrick Lamar's 'Control' verse on 'TKO (Black Friday Remix)' [LISTEN]

Justin Timberlake's "TKO (Black Friday Remix)" has become almost unrecognizable (save for the hook) on its remix featuring A$AP Rocky, Pusha T and J. Cole. As Consequence of Sound points out, A$AP's verse is a rapid-fire curse fest and Pusha talks about his album being Album of the Year. J. Cole, however, used his verse to finally respond to Kendrick Lamar's infamous "'Control" verse. Here's what he had to say:

"Cole to the rescue, never save a ho / Hoes like to hide their behavior though / Thought you was a down ass bitch / 'Til I found that shit a couple days ago / I was home alone, next thing I know / That long as verse from a song called "Control" was on / The room got nearer, the tomb got clearer / That's when I seen the shit playin' on your phone / Girl, what is that? A ringtone? / Shit, not you too / Man that hype done got you too / Everybody and their momma gassed / Even my momma asked what I'mma do / Decisions, decisions / In case this is war, then I load up on all ammunition / If a nigga want problems, my trigger's on auto / I'll make sure that nobody miss him / Now pack up your shit, you don't believe in me / I don't need you, I got me, bitch / Same nigga moved to NYC, bitch / Got a record deal and a college degree, bitch / Two gold plaques, I produced all the tracks / And I never ever ever leave no Jay Z, bitch / And after all that achievement / Real nigga never even went and got his teeth fixed / Now you try to play me, bitch? / I'll knock your ass out."

So is this really war or just a friendly fight among friends? Considering Lamar was featured on Cole's latest album and that Cole backed Lamar during a spat with Diddy, there's probably nothing to get too worked up about.
