One of the most heavily anticipated albums of the year is J. Cole’s upcoming debut album. People who have heard the album have only great things to say about it, describing it as a mix of Nas’ Illmatic and Kanye’s The College Dropout. J. Cole is a murderer and his mixtapes have been dope, so expect a lot out of this newcomer’s debut. In the interview J. Cole explains the lack of features on the album, a bold move for J. Cole in an age where almost every big name is featured on almost every major hip hop release.
