Durk previously discussed the collaborations with Cole during an interview with The Nadeska Show, last July. He described the rapper as a "legend." “He went super crazy,” Durk said at the time. “It’s so crazy because we’d been talking for like, two years, and he’d always be like, ‘Send me a record.’ And I’m like, ‘I gotta find the right record.’ I’m glad I waited two years. In my eyes he a legend. If you have a chance to do a song with a legend, it be like, will you send them something just to send it, just to say you got one, or you gone make it stick. So that’s why I never just sent him a record. Cause I’m like, ‘I want something that’s gon’ stick.’ As soon as I did the record, he was the first person to pop in my head. Like, I got it. I believe in timing. Timing is everything.”

Elsewhere during the ceremony, Killer Mike swept his award nominations, Victoria Monét took home Best R&B Album, among other results. Be on the lookout for further updates on Lil Durk and J. Cole as well as the rest of the 2024 Grammy Awards on HotNewHipHop.
