XXL Freshman Highlight: J. Cole


I haven't heard too much from Roc Nation artist J. Cole but he was featured on the BP3 track A Star is Born. Definitely a smart move for a new artist based out of Fayetteville, North Carolina, and it got him into the spotlight of hip-hop fans pretty quickly. You can also hear him get a verse in on a new Reflection Eternal track, Just Begun, that also featured Mos Def and fellow new artist Jay Electronica, in this post. You can also see Mr. Evan's feature on the artist in his Who's Next series.

Lights Please : This was the track J. Cole played for Jay-Z that got him to sign this young artist.

B.o.B ft. J. Cole - Gladiators : An amazing track with two newly established artists. Off B.o.B's most recent mixtape, May 25th.

Young Chris ft. J. Cole - Still The Hottest : Here is a showcase of two Roc Nation's artist with Young Chris sort of passing the torch to his new label mate.
