Genius Annotation

Kenny Lofton is one of the better stories to have emerged from Major League Baseball. He was definitely known for his speed, which J. Cole attests to in the hook of this song. But if you dig a little deeper into the career of Lofton, you’ll know that he was frequently picked up by teams for just a one-season deal, and he always came through. He was an extremely clutch player, but was never shown true love by any organization. One could argue that the Cleveland Indians respected him the most, as he had his two lengthiest stints on any team with the Tribe.

Why does all of this matter? J. Cole alludes to it on this track, that he believes he’s good, he believes he’s made it, but no one is showing him the proper love yet.

Get ‘em Kenny!
