Here's a List Of Rappers Who've Apologized For A Diss

The big news of the last day is J. Cole's rather stunning to decision to apologize to Kendrick Lamar for a diss track that wasn't even particularly vicious.

Cole said he was peer-pressured into coming after K.Dot -- who had already dissed him.  

And I hope y'all can forgive a n*gga for my misstep, and I can get onto to my own true path," Cole said of the Kendrick diss "7 Minute Drill."  Because I ain't going to lie to y'all.  The past two days felt terrible.  It let me know how good I've been sleeping for the last ten years."

Cole is getting dragged for his apology.

But he isn't the first rapper to say sorry.  Hip Hop By The Numbers has compiled a list of rappers who've said the hardest word.
