Cole quietly left a studio session with Muni Long after a remark she made, and she understands why
J. Cole once slipped away quietly from a studio session with Muni Long after having caught a negative moment from Muni’s choice of words, and she says she gets it.
In a clip that went viral from her 85 South Show appearance in December 2023, the “Made For Me” artist reflected on the moment. She admitted to venting during the session, only to later realize that her energy did not align with Cole’s mindset.
“I was just having a bad day; I just started talking trash,” Muni said describing a conversation with her BFF and collaborator Theron from R. City. “Cole came in, sat for. Within two minutes, he got up and left. I was wondering, at first, why, but later I realized we weren’t on the same frequency.”
“It’s just a matter of energies,” she explained. “That wasn’t judging; that’s just who he is as far as I’m concerned-the positivity level and high vibrations. It’s not his thing, complaining, or that conversation. When you’re high vibrational like that, people with negative energy can bring you down.”
She learned from this that energy plays a big role in creative spaces, and this is what the experience taught Muni: Cole’s very quiet exit served to remind anyone that it was important to stay on the same path of constructive and uplifting interactions, especially in high-level environments.
