J. Cole hails from Fayetteville, North Carolina. He's been rapping since he was young and opted to attend St. John's University in New York to increase his chances of getting signed. He graduated magna cum laude in 2007 and started working on mixtapes immediately. He's pretty fresh on the scene, with his debut album slated to release on September 27th of this year. This collaboration with Trey Songz will probably be one of the first singles.
