I mean the shit was all bad just a week ago
Rappers was bullshitting, fuck it I ain't hating though

from J. Cole – Who Dat Lyrics on Rap Genius

A reference to Jay-Z’s song “A Week Ago”, which is about a friend of Jay’s that turns on him after going to jail. The hook is “It was all good just a week ago”

J.Cole flips it to mean that the rap world was bad but has suddenly turned around now that he’s releasing an album

There are numerous Jay-Z references in this song, perhaps as a thank you since J.Cole is currently signed to Jay-Z’s Roc Nation record label
