About

In the 2010, J. Cole ascended to become one of the most beloved and commercially viable rappers in the industry. He built a loyal fanbase with his mix of lyrical dexterity, earnestne, and a do-it-yourself approach to much of his production and recording. But perhaps most importantly, J. Cole fans are so attached to him because they feel like they’ve been aboard his journey from day one. The Fayetteville, North Carolina, native earned a scholarship to St. John’s University, graduating in 2007. In the meantime, he honed his craft as a rapper and producer while working a telemarketing job. He famously waited in the rain outside the offices of JAŸ-Z’s Roc the Mic Studios for three hours to give him a beat CD, with hopes that he’d use them on his 2007 album <i>American Gangster</i>. .
