Reports stating J.Cole broke his leg were all over the internet this past weekend. But the Roc Nation rapper didn’t break his leg.
He did, however, sprain his ankle and had to cancel his shows in Florida this past weekend.
August 29, 2011 When J Cole announced that he would release his debut album, 'The Sideline Story' he also gave up the plans for his 'Any Given Sunday' outline too.
He told fans that he would leak something every Sunday leading up to the album release.
Cole didn't say exactly what he would leak, only that it might be music, information or videos related to the album.
It started with the free download of his 'Any Given Sunday' EP and then the kickoff of his 'Cole World' tour.
This week J Cole let us know exactly what songs are on the new album, check it out.
August 25, 2011 Rihanna is denying reports that the sex tape with her and J Cole exists, but Hustler magazine is standing by their statements.
Rihanna and Cole have been linked musically numerous times in the last year, including hitting the road together for the 2011 Loud tour.
Does this mean that they have a sex tape together? No, but it does create the opportunity for such an even to happen. Check out what Hustler has to say about the tape, and what they might do with it.
August 24, 2011 J Cole kicked off his 'Cole World Tour' last night in Toronto and from the Twitter conversation that followed, it sounded like a crazy night!
Apparantly at some point during the concert a girl was close enough to Cole to reach into his pocket and steal his phone. Luckily Cole has been filming the entire road trip for his 'Cole Summer' video series and he was able to see who did it.
What Cole did next is not only genius, but it was actually kind-hearted too. Check out his Twitter time line, and a couple of performances from the show.
Cole World: The Sideline Story will drop in September and Jay Z's understudy will head out on a world tour starting next week. J. Cole who just finished touring with Rihanna will be on the road for the next four months promoting his first album since signing with Jay.
Cole's website also gave out some new info about his next single "Can't Get Enough"
“The next single up will be the Brian Kidd produced smash, ‘Can’t Get Enough’ featuring the multi-platinum star, Trey Songz. For the upcoming ‘Can’t Get Enough’ video, audiences can expect a sultry, beautiful production shot on the picturesque beaches of Barbados.”
J. Cole is trying to finally have a commercial hit and "Work Out" just may be it. I'm not a big fan of it, but it seems as though it's growing on people. Watching the video helps a bit for me because it's kind of a throwback style video. He's not just pouring champagne on chicks at a club. I hope this song/video works for him and gets him his proper shine.
August 1, 2011 J Cole has put out eleventy billion more mixtapes than he has albums so far. (eleventy billion may be a bit of an over exaggeration). He has started to catch some heat though from fans and critics about the long wait for his debut album, "The Sideline Story".
J Cole addressed the criticisms by tweeting that he will not release any mixtapes before the September 27th street date of "The Sideline Story". He hasn't technically broken that promise since "Any Given Sunday" is only an EP. Who am I kidding? We don't care, it's free J Cole music.
It's a known fact that J. Cole is my favorite rapper. And after seeing him perform at our 810 Local Show last year it was cemented in stone. Right now he's doing tours across the country as he gets ready to drop his long awaited album "Cole World" September 27. He's been documenting the journey. Check out the videos here.
