Cole is right, they did try to crush wale, he lost his deal and everything, but he bounced back and him, cole, and kendrick, the new school, is making good meaningful, lyrical music now
I don't think people will ever really understand or acknowledge how much of a impact this guy has. This man single handedly reassured niggas that's it's okay to be yourself. He shows you it's cool to be smart it's cool to accept who you are it's cool to embrace your flaws. As corny and cliche as this sound his music helped me find myself his music helped learn my purpose In life. Long story short the first time I heard his music I've been deeply in touch with always being myself! Most of all his music stopped me from committing suicide a few years ago the actual song that gave me hope to go on is " Can I live."
I feel you bro. When I heard his friday night lights mixtape it felt so relieving like a breath of fresh air. It felt like he was telling word for word exactly what I went through during my years as a teen. I still remember like yesterday getting teary eyed after hearing the song 2 face. That song help me get over a lot of pain that I suffered from people I thought were my friends, and that was the first time in my entire life where I experienced a song/music making me shed tears
@@SoulBrotha91 J Cole has always been consistent, brought us so much more for his recognition of the real...but still, 8 years after this comment might have just squeezed that tear out of me just then...cascade of a flow of emotion. this is where pain transforms..for bad or good. I wish the best. Love
For real tho J Cole is the most underrated rapper in the business right now. He hasn't won a award yet, hasn't won nothing and I think he really deserves best album of the year. This dude is so intellectual when he raps and I just love his music I will always ride with Cole till the end.
I think Forrest Hills won best Hip Hop album of 2014 for BET.. I think but fuck the award shows anyhow he at least went platinum without any features. I'd be more proud of that if I was Cole. He's my role model #ColeWorld
It's amazing how quick I fell in love with this dude, bro. Pause, but g shit bro. He reminds me so much of myself by the way I think, ponder, consider, and worry. I feel like it's only me at my school, that actually cares about my well-being, and what's best for me. I understand all things around me, what's good, what's bad, and what's really important. I never witnessed somebody diplaying yhe SAME FUCKIG EXACT GOTDAMN THOUGHTS I FUCKING HAVE EVERY FUCKING DAY. It's amazes, scares, and excites me all a once. Mad love for this nigga, no homo. HALLELUJAH EZRA!!!
I feel like Hard Knock TV hit a "pocket of zones" with these interviews y'all have been doing lately. GREAT interviews with great artists. Glad I subscribed.
I respect Cole 100%. His music was like a breath of fresh air when he 1st hit with that single Lost ones. That was 1st time i ever heard his music. Im from NYC im in my 30's & witness Hip Hop's NYC Golden Era & just really appreciated the Humanistic approach to his music. I under stand his stance on the duality of Man. "We all got Angels, We all got demons" I still face such struggles everyday..
The system doesn't want us to be Humans, it wants us to be consumers. We're not supposed to show any compassion or love toward anyone. If we love we're supposed to love a piece of Gold,Car or clothing or the idea that others envy what we have. The only time the re-enforcement of Family values are pushed is during commercial holidays such as Easter, X-Mas, Valentines & The 4th, basically whenever its most profitable.
One of the best out that ppl aren't up on yet - Jeffrey Rashad - 'Keyz Open Doors' Album. Pianist from L.A. with one of the best R&B projects of the year
Hard knock TV is doing a great job. J Cole is real and relatable. Always been a fan since day one. Dope interview. You see he thinks and processes a story behind the records.
The best rapper doing it right now (alongside Kendrick and Joey). He's one of the only few of the new school staying true to the art form while making music that can reach and connect to the people. Born Sinner has gotten better each time I've went back to listen to it, a much better album than what I realized the first time around
This is the Cole we need right now can't wait till his next album can't wait to hear his growth and how it'll match up with me now how I've grown with his music we need him right now fr fr 2020 ain't it...
This album went #1in the 3rd Week, but i still feel like people aren't aware of the Concept & Alignment on Born sinner. Its Done nicely. Top 3 Album of the Year: Born Sinner WOLF Nothing Was The Same
man this shit crazy because i had the same reaction to the whole album the album really touched my heart on some real shit when you been a fan since day 1 you will understand
His first album is a classic, Born Sinner (Album) is a well put together story that flows through each song you play from track 1 till the end. Good Interview, good questions & answers.
watching this interview and watching him speak and then comparing his most recent interview, you can see how much him as a human being has evolved over time.
You can't listen to an album twice and fully hear and digest everything. At the 4:00 minute mark he tells you the difference between mixtape cole and album cole. The industry made him play the game and now that he's made it out he can get back to his warm up flow. He said he almost made this album with no singles but then he hit a groove and made power trip, crooked smile, forbidden fruit, she knows. Which all are single radio type of songs. His 1st single for this album was Miss America which is Classic cole.
man , your attitude makes me a bigger fan of you , Artist Vibe , i followed your videos thinking you some producer dude , until i just figured you are J cole . real mate , keep at it !
when he said that he teared when he listened to his own album when he finished it for the first time I wouldn't blame him couse he did beat people he came above I even know his album was better than kanyes YEEZUS album fosho
ya see, all his haters say he gets on tracks and "cries" but that is so ignant. I dig his vibes and he is just real intellectual.. even in this interview he is always pausing and searching for the words he wants to speak..its hard to ezplain but im in it til the end with cole. seeing him for the first time in two days, I am overly stoked
Talking about himself and Wale not letting the game crush them......only a certain type of person can hold it together and keep pushing. Respect to those cats!!!
J Cole is EASILY the best rapper out of the New School. His effortless style and seemingly simple lyrics that always have deeper meanings behind them remind me of a lot of the greats back in the golden age of rap. He chooses every word very carefully, similar to Nas. 1) J. Cole 2) King Los 3/4) Childish Gambino/Hopsin 5) Wale They are lyrically are the best in the new school... not necessarily MUSICALLY the best but they put the most work into their words and just bar for bar can easily out rap people like Drake, Kendrick, Meek and Big Sean who are considered to be the best nowadays.
TheOp If I can understand Lupe, Talib, Mos Def, Andre, Nas, Rakim, 2 Pac, KRS-One, Common, Slick Rick, Big L, Big Pun, Q Tip, Slug, Immortal Technique, Grieves, Hopsin and King Los then I'm pretty sure I can understand Kendrick. I just don't think he's good.
TheOp there would be no point in me trying to prove my intelligence to you. It's all opinion. Kendrick is over hyped and not nearly as deep as people pretend he is. His flow is trash and his lyrics seem pretentious to me. He's got a couple good songs but I find his music boring and his lyrics underwhelming. He's not as good as Hopsin, he's not as good as J Cole, He's not as good King Los, He's not as lyrical as Grieves or Slug, He's not as smooth as Wale, and overall his music is just weak. Sure he's better than Drake and A$AP Rocky and Big Sean but that doesn't make him dope.
I hate how all interviewers wanna break interviews up and post them in time gaps this shit is annoying now. Its a trend that was started by Zane Lowe and Elliot Wilson but doing that doesn't make your viewing audience bigger I just don't see the point. people will subscribe if you did a good job not because they have to come back 3 separate times. The Breakfast Club might be the best source for interviews right now and they post the whole thing the same day. I appreciate the good work its just annoying.
i like how he said he'll never rap about how much money he has. thats wack and overplayed in rap music nowadays and everyone from jayz to chief keef does it.
Dam I didn't even realise how much music he has dropped this year, if he has a quiet 2014 I can't even blame him because he has dropped a bunch of shit this year

Man I love him.
Great interview JCole is an on point dude, representing the ILL state very well
Beat the game! Please don't ever change your style.
Cole is that dude! I slept on son at first, but this Born Sinner album is really getting me thru a tuff time.. #salute
When I seen him in Person and High 5'd him I didn't really think much of it. but now I listen to his music and now I'm like......wow
when he said that he teared when he listened to his own album when he finished it for the first time I wouldn't blame him couse he did beat people he came above I even know his album was better than kanyes YEEZUS album fosho
FHD surely was the cherry on top....
Never gets old
one smart dude
And thats why i give mad respect to j. cole
Watching on January 28th happy birthday j cole🔥
cole and kendrick represent this generation young black men
No fucking Grammy nomination wtf.
Nas hasn't won 1 yet.. Fuck a Grammy.. I do this for my Granny... lmao i just thought of that.. Ha!!
I'm pretty sure he got a Grammy nomination for Power Trip with Miguel
Not even that!
Deshaun Daley grammy's really don't recognize talent anymore cole and kendrick are two prime examples.
Kendrick just won 11 Grammys
ya see, all his haters say he gets on tracks and "cries" but that is so ignant. I dig his vibes and he is just real intellectual.. even in this interview he is always pausing and searching for the words he wants to speak..its hard to ezplain but im in it til the end with cole. seeing him for the first time in two days, I am overly stoked
Talking about himself and Wale not letting the game crush them......only a certain type of person can hold it together and keep pushing. Respect to those cats!!!
Yeah God-fearing men

Cole World All Day!!!!
Genius
I wanna be a hard worker like him man
Too real
J Cole is EASILY the best rapper out of the New School. His effortless style and seemingly simple lyrics that always have deeper meanings behind them remind me of a lot of the greats back in the golden age of rap. He chooses every word very carefully, similar to Nas.
1) J. Cole
2) King Los
3/4) Childish Gambino/Hopsin
5) Wale
They are lyrically are the best in the new school... not necessarily MUSICALLY the best but they put the most work into their words and just bar for bar can easily out rap people like Drake, Kendrick, Meek and Big Sean who are considered to be the best nowadays.
*****
I don't think Kendrick is that good. His flow is trash and his lyrics aren't as deep as people think they are. The Gifted > GKMC
bboyfan22 I respect j cole but kendrick is trash? I guess you really are stupid to understand metaphors. smh
TheOp If I can understand Lupe, Talib, Mos Def, Andre, Nas, Rakim, 2 Pac, KRS-One, Common, Slick Rick, Big L, Big Pun, Q Tip, Slug, Immortal Technique, Grieves, Hopsin and King Los then I'm pretty sure I can understand Kendrick. I just don't think he's good.
bboyfan22 fair enough.You don't seem intelligent though but you know your music.
TheOp
there would be no point in me trying to prove my intelligence to you. It's all opinion. Kendrick is over hyped and not nearly as deep as people pretend he is. His flow is trash and his lyrics seem pretentious to me. He's got a couple good songs but I find his music boring and his lyrics underwhelming.

why the fuck say he talks wale, kendrick and joey badass when he merely mentions them in 1 sentence but good interview as usual anyway
we agree with you. that's why we changed the titled to be more reflective of the content of the interview. thanks for your input.
hardknocktv please go to my channel and watch my freestyles jcole has inspired me to Rap if u like him u will like me I'm from north Carolina
And y'all slacking on these uploads man...
Realest shit I ever heard
You can tell he's a military kid because sometimes he repeats the question before answering it.
He ain't though
Justin Lueder he is
+Yakria Gray Who served?? I'm unaware of this so
Justin Lueder his father
He's trying to tell you that he made it out of the brotherhood alive. They tried to buy his soul and he escaped.
"I'm bout to break the fuck up outta here". Yo dude think about it he's Anti-illumanti.
That was a Revenge of the dreamer line if nonody got it.
whats the name of the black thermal he wearing in power trip wit the leather shoulders/elbow
I can really relate to this nigga foreal
what was the song at 8:30 i havent heard it
+Cesar perez (cesart) Villuminati, its the first song on the Born Sinner album
+Geo Ruiz yeah thanks i found it.
no Grammy no problem still a great rapper
I hate how all interviewers wanna break interviews up and post them in time gaps this shit is annoying now. Its a trend that was started by Zane Lowe and Elliot Wilson but doing that doesn't make your viewing audience bigger I just don't see the point. people will subscribe if you did a good job not because they have to come back 3 separate times. The Breakfast Club might be the best source for interviews right now and they post the whole thing the same day.
I appreciate the good work its just annoying.
real FUCKN SHIT!!!
He mention Joeybada$$
what snapback is that?
Born Sinner>NWTS
What's that beat at the end tho?
Truly yours 3? does anyone know where i can find that?!
He just said he sold his soul smfh 🤦🏾♂️🤦🏾♂️🤦🏾♂️🤦🏾♂️💤💤💤
i like how he said he'll never rap about how much money he has. thats wack and overplayed in rap music nowadays and everyone from jayz to chief keef does it.
listen to "Rich Niggaz" and "Ain't That Some Shit (Interlude)" and tell me he isn't talking about how much money he has
Kaleab Samuel I think he means he's not doing it all the time and basing all his music/career on how much money he has
Kaleab Samuel lol did you not hear him say the album is about the dualities about himself
To Jocelyn wats good cutie
"7 Days Straight, No Showers"
I'm A Born Stinker
7 Days Without A Bath, I Swear
Is this the realest interview or not? I think so
Didnt DRake already paved the way for J. COLE?
OH WOW he didn't even talk about Joey he only just kind of mentioned him lol.
They probably put his name there for extra views.
😍
Real nigga.
There was a truly yours 3?
Yeah the 5 extra songs on the deluxe version are Truly Yours 3
He too real on what he speaks....
Stickkkssss
Dam I didn't even realise how much music he has dropped this year, if he has a quiet 2014 I can't even blame him because he has dropped a bunch of shit this year
Why he look so damn paranoid
His label he's talking too real
