J Cole continues to support his album of last year ‘Born Sinner’ with a new visual for his track ‘She Knows’.
J Cole decides to drop a thought provoking cinematic video for ‘Crooked Smile’ which is the second single to be taken from his album ‘Born Sinner’.
In the video Cole plays a drug dealer with a D.E.A agent quick on his heels trying to bring him down and despite being from completely different worlds their live’s draw a parallel of both being providers for their loved ones. The video ends in a dramatic fashion and is dedicated to Aiyana Stanley-Jones who was tragically gunned down by police during a home raid in 2010.
Production duo Lion KNGS sprinkle some laid back vibes to their remix for J Cole’s smash ‘Power Trip’.
J Cole sat down with Whoo Kid and spoke about ‘Born Sinner’, being under the guidance of Jay-z, pressure of creating a hit single & more.
The results are in from the June 18th battle between Kanye West, J Cole & Mac Miller and sees ‘Yeezus’ taking the number 1 spot after shifting 328,800 copies. J Cole’s ‘Born Sinner’ came 2nd with 297,922 copies which is a great look for Cole as is for Mac Miller who sold 101,795 copies via the independent label Rostrum Records.
Yeezus may of topped the charts but considering it only sold 31,000 more then ‘Born Sinner’ it looks like Cole’s risk of going up against Kanye West definitely paid off. What’s more telling is that neither artist really had a heavy rotating radio single and yet all of them landed in the top 3 best sellers which just shows how unimportant radio play is becoming.
Fresh from performing at NYC’s Irving Plaza, J Cole & Drake headed out to Best Buy for a shopping spree and scooped up every copy of Cole’s new album ‘Born Sinner’ as well as a copy of French Montana’s ‘Excuse My French’ which is great news for Montana as it brings his total album sales to 5.
