Cole is a rapper and producer who signed on with Jay Z's Roc Nation in ░░ 2009 and has produced for artists like Kendrick Lamar and Janet Jackson. ░░ ░░ Who Is J. Cole? ░░ ░░ J. Cole is an MC and producer who has achieved phenomenal success over ░░ the last few years, a result of the long hours he spent grinding hard on ░░ the mixtape scene and sharing songs on internet forums. Since signing to ░░ Jay ZÆs Roc Nation, he has toured worldwide, sold huge amounts of ░░ records, produced for Kendrick Lamar and even come to the attention of ░░ Barack Obama. Along with establishing his own nonprofit foundation, he ░░ keeps up a busy release schedule. No wonder Drake paid him the highest ░░ compliment: ôYou are looking at one of the smartest, greatest, most ░░ legendary artists of our generation.ö ░░ ░░ Born in Germany, Raised in North Carolina ░░ ░░ Jermaine Lamarr Cole was born on January 28, 1985, at a U.S. Army base in ░░ Frankfurt, then in West Germany. His father, an African-American soldier, ░░ left his mother, a white German postal worker, when Cole was a baby. She ░░ moved with him and his older brother, Zach, to Fayetteville, North ░░ Carolina, where the family lived in trailer parks as she struggled to ░░ make ends meet. ░░ ░░ His mom eventually remarried ù Cole's stepfather was also in the Army ù ░░ and the family relocated to a nicer home. However, the marriage crumbled ░░ and the family lost the house as Cole was about to leave for college. His ░░ stepfather had become abusive, particularly toward Zach; after the ░░ marriage ended, Cole's mother became addicted to crack under the ░░ influence of a new boyfriend. ░░ ░░ It was in Fayetteville that Cole's passion for music found an early ░░ outlet when he joined the Terry Sanford Orchestra as a violinist. He also ░░ began to teach himself rapping and production, rapping first as Blaza, ░░ then as Therapist ù ôWe used to look through the dictionary for rap ░░ names,ö he recalled later ù before hooking up with a local group called ░░ Bomm Sheltuh. ░░ ░░ He held down a number of part-time jobs as a teenager while he honed his ░░ production skills, including a stint at an ice hockey rink where he had ░░ to dress up as a kangaroo mascot. After graduating from high school, Cole ░░ moved to New York and attended St JohnÆs University, graduating magna cum ░░ laude in 2007 with a degree in communications. ░░ ░░ Getting Signed to Roc Nation ░░ ░░ His debut mixtape, The Come Up, also came out in 2007. It was largely ░░ self-produced, but also saw him rapping over beats from Kanye West, Large ░░ Professor and Just Blaze. A track called "Lights Please" from his second ░░ mixtape, The Warm Up (2009), came to the attention of the producer and ░░ music exec Mark Pitts, who played it to Jay Z. Ironically, Cole had ░░ attempted to give Jay Z a copy himself, after waiting outside a studio to ░░ meet his idol for three hours ù only to be rebuffed with the line ôMan, I ░░ don't want that shit.ö But Pitts had Jay Z's ear, and the mogul was ░░ impressed with what he heard. Cole signed to Roc Nation and started to ░░ appear as a guest on tracks by Wale, Jay Z and Talib Kweli. ░░ ░░ A third mixtape in 2010, Friday Night Lights, consisted of songs rejected ░░ from ColeÆs debut studio album. That album, Cole World: The Sideline ░░ Story, finally saw the light of day in 2011 and would go on to be ░░ certified platinum. Critics hailed a promising artist, with the L.A. ░░ Times praising the ôsatisfying confidenceö of his rhymes and the ôslickly ░░ inventive beats.ö ░░ ░░ Going No. 1: '2014 Forest Hills Drive' & '4 Your Eyez Only' ░░ ░░ Cole's sophomore album, Born Sinner, had its release date moved numerous ░░ times so as not to clash with other big releases. When it eventually came ░░ out in June 2013, it was another success. Kendrick Lamar and 50 Cent were ░░ among the guests, on an album that was warmly, but not ecstatically, ░░ received. ░░ ░░ With momentum building, 2014 Forest Hills Drive came out in December 2014 ░░ and premiered at No. 1 on the Billboard 200, despite a lack of advance ░░ singles or marketing. It won several awards, including Billboard Rap ░░ Album of the Year, and was later certified double platinum. This was ░░ impressive for an album that had no guest appearances, although some ░░ critics felt his political stances in real life were not reflected on an ░░ album that often strayed into sex rhymes. ôItÆs time for the Cole who ░░ marches in the streets to start showing up on record,ö said Rolling ░░ Stone, referring to ColeÆs visit to Ferguson in August 2014 to meet those ░░ protesting the shooting of Michael Brown. ░░ ░░ His fourth studio album, 4 Your Eyez Only, came out just before Christmas ░░ 2016 and also went to No. 1. Despite a minor controversy over what some ░░ saw as lyrical barbs directed at Kanye West and Drake, it was another ░░ guest-free set that found favor. The New York Times suggested that by ░░ freeing himself of the shackles of big-name guest stars, Cole could take ░░ his own artistic path, noting that the album ôfeels as if it were made ░░ without the slightest concession to whatÆs happening elsewhere in the ░░ genre.ö ░░ ░░ Making History with 'KOD' ░░ ░░ The rapper's audience eagerly welcomed the April 2018 release of his ░░ fifth studio album, KOD, which shattered Spotify's opening-day streaming ░░ record en route to the Billboard top spot. Days later, it was announced ░░ that Cole had become the first artist to debut three simultaneous singles ░░ on the Billboard Hot 100, with "Kevin's Heart," "ATM" and KOD's title ░░ track all surfacing on the chart. ░░ ░░ Establishing His Own Label, Nonprofit Work ░░ ░░ As a thoughtful, contemplative rapper, J. Cole generally stays away from ░░ beefing with other artists or living a gaudy, front-page lifestyle. He ░░ runs the Dreamville Records label with his former St. John's University ░░ classmate Ibrahim Hamad, releasing music by up-and-coming artists ░░ including Omen, Bas and Cozz. ░░ ░░ The label shares a name with his Dreamville Foundation, a non-profit Cole ░░ established in his hometown. Set up to ôbridge the gap between the worlds ░░ of opportunity and the urban youth of Fayetteville, NC,ö it runs a series ░░ of events and programs, including a reading club and essay contests. ░░ ░░ Cole is married to Melissa Heholt, with whom he has a child. He recently ░░ purchased the childhood home after which he named his 2014 Forest Hills ░░ Drive album, with the intention of developing it into temporary rent-free ░░ accommodation for single mothers. ░░ ░░ It's actions like this that have made him a rapper that even presidents ░░ can praise. Cole was invited to the White House to meet with Barack Obama ░░ in spring 2016, something he rapped about on the track "High for Hours." ░░ Obama later commented: ôThis is the benefit of having teenage daughters, ░░ I actually keep upà I love J. Cole.ö Endorsements donÆt come much bigger. ░░ ░░ Collection of tracks previously only available on various bootlegs. ░░ ░░█ ░░███ ░█ ░░░░██ █▓█ ████░ ░░░░░██ y o o v e e y o o █████ █████ ░░░░░░██ g o t t h e ▒████░ ██▒▒██ ░░░░░░░█ ░ ██▓██ ▓█▒██ ░░░░░░░█ ███ ███ ███ ███ ███ ████ ▒▓███ ▒███ ░░░░░░░█ ░█ █░█ █░█ █░█ █░█ ░███████ ████░ ░███ ░░░░░░░█ ░███░███░█ █░███░███ █████████▒ █████ ██ ░░░░░░░█ ░█ ░█ █░█ █░█ ░░░█ ██████████████ █████ █ ░░░░░░██ ░█ ░█ █░█ █░█ ░█ ██████████████████ ████▓ ░░░░░██ ░█ ░█ █░█ █░█ ░█ ████████████████████▒ ░░░░██ ░█ ░█ █░█ █░█ ░█ ▓██████▒▒▒▒███████░ ░░░██ ░█ ░█ █░█ █░█ ░█ ▓█████▒███████████ ░░░█ ░█ ░█ █░█ █░█ ░█ █████▒▒░████████ ░░░█ ░█ ░█ █░█ █░█ ░█ ██▓██▒██▓███▒ ░░░█ ░█ ░█ █░█ █░█ ░░░█ ██████████ ▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄ ░░░█ ░█ ░█ █░███░█ ░███ ▒███████ /-------------------------\ ░░░██ ███ ░| shouts 2 all the groups |░ ░░░░██ ████ ░| putting o u t |░ ░░░░░██ █████ ░| quality m u s i c |░ ░░░░░░███ ████▒ \-------------------------/ ░░░░░░░▓▓█████████████▒ ▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀
