Why did J. Cole release 7 Minute Drill?

The feeling of regression that the Work Out artist had expressed, comes from the release of the diss which aimed at Kendrick Lamar.

During his recent concert, as per Cole’s words, the diss “spiritually (felt) bad on me.”  

He also stated, “That shit don’t sit right with my spirit. That shit disrupts my fuckin’ peace. So what I want to say right here tonight is in the midst of me doing that and in that shit, trying to find a little angle and downplay this n—a’s fucking catalog and his greatness, I want to say right now tonight, how many people think Kendrick Lamar is one of the greatest motherfucker’s to ever touch a fuckin’ microphone? Dreamville, y’all love Kendrick Lamar, correct? As do I.”
