If you haven't heard of J. Cole yet, I can't blame you, but I CAN tell you one thing. GET ON DAT! J. Cole as I said in my previous entry is the first signee to Jay-Z's ROC NATION Label. Hailing from Fayetteville, NC, this boy hustles HARD! Lyrics are DEFINITELY ON POINT!
He ALSO produced most of his tracks on his "The Warm Up" mixtape that just came out earlier today. Features the popular track that has been on his myspace page for months, "I Get Up", which is an inspirational and soulful story of his hood, his life and a call to those living the street life. Also another self produced banger, titled "Grown Simba", that has a bass line that makes it easy to conjure up disbelief. IT IS AMAZING! On "Just to Get By" he spits over Talib Kweli's "Get By" and goes in with everything he's got and makes it seem so effortless. He also placed an old track entitled "Lights Please" which he says is the track that Jay-Z heard before requesting he be flown to New York to meet with the almighty Hov.
This a great tape for those who love lyric drivin hip-hop. Its fresh on the internet. 22 tracks deep. Get it while its still warm. I suggest you ((GET ON DAT)).
