J. Cole impressed me last year with his tight rhymes and beats but subsequent tracks seemed to lack fire. Then this track landed in my skull. Aaaaand now the hype makes sense again. That stutter beat comes straight from the future to hovercraft Cole’s versus straight to infectiousville. The Jay-Z verse is nothing but a side dish here, adding extra street cred to the Fayetteville, N. Carolina, native’s debut LP Cole World: The Sideline Story which dropped today. If it’s full of jams half this jamming then I’m all over it.
Respect for this post, Cole World is the fresh stuff the rap game needs
Thanks KE, and mad respect for Cole!
