"[You're] bold for even calling Jermaine Cole, 'cause he's been on a rampage," Joe Budden told Nicki during an interview. "He's been tearing n*ggas up. He didn't do it to you, though."

"Yes he did," Nicki replied. "I'm just telling you, he did. That made me know that he respected me, and cared about my project."

Budden is right, though. Cole has been on a lyrical tear lately, whether on Lil Durk's "All My Life," Burna Boy's "Thanks," or Gucci Mane's "There I Go."

What do you think is Cole's best guest verse of 2023?
