J Cole admits he sometimes doesn't really feel like he's the best rapper in the world and there's days where he doesn't feel like he's better than Black Thought, Lupe Fiasco, Drake or Kendrick Lamar:
"But you said something in the beginning, how like on songs I say I'm the best on songs. It's like ask me in real life do I think I'm the best rapper alive? Bro, there's someone named Black Thought that exists. There's someone named Lupe Fiasco that exists. It's people that on any given day—even my peers, or Drake, or Kendrick—where it's like, yo, I know at any given day I can show up to the studio and give them 80 points, but I know they can show up on any day in the studio and give me 80 points and I might only have 30. So if I'm taking on a rap persona like when I'm rapping, that's what I like to… that's how I like to rap. Sometimes I hit the mark and I spit a verse that really might make you believe in that."
