J. Cole - Might Delete Later (2024)
J. Cole's surprise mixtape, Might Delete Later, released on April 5, 2024, via Dreamville and Interscope Records, comprises 12 tracks featuring collaborations with artists such as Ari Lennox, Gucci Mane, and Bas. The project has received mixed reviews from critics. Pitchfork highlights Cole's lyrical prowess, noting that his performance recalls certain stretches of Kendrick Lamar's To Pimp a Butterfly, where a studious rapper delves into the core of the music he loves, seeking new avenues for expression. Conversely, Sputnikmusic criticizes the mixtape, suggesting that it fails to deliver on its promises and lacks the depth found in Cole's earlier work. Overall, Might Delete Later presents a concise collection that reflects J. Cole's current artistic direction, though it has elicited varied responses regarding its impact and innovation within his discography.
