Jack Harlow has shared his reaction to all the Jackman love, and said he’s “never felt so connected” to the people listening to his music.
The Kentucky rapper surprised his fans by dropping off Jackman on April 28, and it definitely caused a stir online, with fans having a lot to say about a few braggadocious claims he made on the tape. Needless to say, there was also a lot of love thrown his way, and Jack recently took to Twitter to give thanks.
“2 weeks have passed and I just wanna say the love & respect I’ve felt from not only my peers,” he wrote. “But from YALL…the fans…the folks that have supported me from the beginning…it feels fuckin amazing… I have never felt so connected to the people listening to my music…thank you.”
Jackman arrived without any previously-released singles or features and, according to Chart Data, debuted at No. 8 on the Billboard 200 with about 40,000 total album-equivalent units sold in the first week.
The album also made headlines when Jack claimed to be “the hardest white boy” to pick up a microphone since Eminem on the cut “They Don’t Love It.”
“Ya boy’s strivin’ to be the most dominant ever/ The hardest white boy since the one who rapped about vomit and sweaters,” Harlow raps on the Hollywood Cole-produced joint.
“And hold the comments ’cause I promise you I’m honestly better than whoever came to your head right then/ They ain’t cut from the same thread like him/ They don’t study, doin’ work to get ahead like him/ They don’t toss and turn in the fuckin’ bed like him.”
The lyrics are in reference to Em’s diamond-certified classic “Lose Yourself,” where Marshall Mathers raps: “His palms are sweaty, knees weak, arms are heavy/ There’s vomit on his sweater already, mom’s spaghetti.”
The internet had a lot to say about Jack Harlow’s bold bars, with a few people pushing back on his claim on Twitter.
“No way Jack Harlow just said he’s better than Eminem. I’m off the Jack Harlow train bro,” one user wrote — even though Harlow’s bars don’t hear him say he’s “better” than Slim Shady.
Another added: “Jack harlow not better than eminem btw,” wrote one user, while another added:
Others applauded Jack’s hustle, with one user writing the bar was a “crazy ass thing to say but gotta respect it.”
