Fire Squad

"Fire Squad" is a song by American rapper J. Cole, taken from his third album, 2014 Forest Hills Drive.

[1] The song samples "Midnight Theme" performed by Manzel and "Long Red" by Mountain and "Heart Breaker" by Aguaturbia, and was produced by J. Cole and Vinylz.

[2] Following the release of the album, the song stirred up controversy as it calls out Iggy Azalea, Eminem, Justin Timberlake and Macklemore's names.

J. Cole explained what inspired the verse in an interview saying it's rooted in capitalism and clarified that it wasn't a diss, but an observation.

Justin Charity of Complex said ""Fire Squad" offers timely premonition: "This year I’ll probably go to the awards [show] dappered down/Watch Iggy win a Grammy as I try to crack a smile."
