One guardian article expresses the amount of hope that J.Cole brings to Hip-Hop and which is extremely beneficial as this really does show how much J.Cole has affected Hip-Hop as The Guardian is mostly read by people that are educated with the demographics of B which shows how much power J.Cole has as they recognize him to be the hope of Hip-Hop portraying how Cole puts a positive affect on his audiences as people with higher classes even adore his music.
"The 25-year-old has just signed to Jay-Z's Roc Nation imprint and he's being talked up in the States not just as the heir to Mr Beyoncé's crown but also as the young rapper who is single-handedly going to bring about a return to Real Hip-Hop"
This is a really positive look for J.Cole and really does challenge the negative stereotypes of Hip-Hop, reason being is that cole is being described in the guardian to be the key figure in hip hop but also bringing back the original game when it was considered to be positive. This is also a good positive for cole and hip hop as the guardian being read by many older audiences that wouldn't really listen to rap would recognize J.Cole as a good figure in hip hop and give hip hop a good reputation to other audiences that don't really listen to rap.

Drake has joined J Cole in an apology for mocking autism on their new single. Calling it "a learning lesson for both of us", Drake said that the offending lyric will be removed from the official release of Jodeci Freestyle.
Cole, not Drake, was the one who dropped the song's controversial lyric: "I'm artistic," he rapped. "You niggas is autistic, retarded." Representatives for Autism Speaks were among those who spoke out against the line, accusing Cole of perpetuating negative stereotypes against people with autism.
Over the weekend, Cole published a full apology: "Recently there's been a trend that includes rappers saying something offensive, only to be attacked for it in the media and pressured to apologise." he wrote on his blog, alluding to incidents involving Rick Ross and Lil Wayne. "I do not believe that an apology is needed every time someone is offended, especially when that apology is really only for the sake of saving an endorsement or cleaning up bad press. With that said, this is not the case today. This letter is sincere. This apology IS necessary."
"Last week, when I first saw a comment from someone outraged about the lyric, I realised right away that what I said was wrong," Cole continued. "I was instantly embarrassed that I would be ignorant enough say something so hurtful. What makes the crime worse is that I should have known better ... People with this disorder and their loved ones have to go through so much already, the last thing they need is to hear something as ignorant as what I said."
I would say that J.Cole represents himself to be very morally and socially considerate about others as he realized that what he had said was wrong and is extremely sorry which shows he cares about the people in the world. This is extremely beneficial as this puts a good reputation on rap as rappers like cole do not mean to hurt anyone feelings but just want to make music for people to listen to and relate to them.
