After a show at an undisclosed school Southern Connecticut State University J. Cole sits down with Jon Moreno (a student at said school) to discuss the title of his album (it’s not Cole World), his official single (Who Dat), being a college graduate, and more.

Cole’s nice with his shit. That being said, it wouldn’t kill him to do the occasional chin-up or curl a dumbbell.
ohio university
At least he’s smart enough to not put a shitload of guest on his debut album.
“Betta Leavemalone like stockton”
J cole is the truth
“Cole’s nice with his shit. That being said, it wouldn’t kill him to do the occasional chin-up or curl a dumbbell.”
LMAO! He makes up 4 that lyrically tho
noooooo its not ohio university “cook”..it was Southern Connecticut myguy..plz include my name in credits Shake wen you pull a ——
who the fuck cares… you look lookin at dudes arms?
LMFAO @ George Clooney’s comment……i was thinkin the exact same shit when i first saw the pic…cole is lookin mad weak for real
@ George Clooney you are exactly what’s wrong with hip hop and hip hop fans. You have new up and coming lyircal beast that the game has needed for years and all you can do is make a comment about his muscle tone? There was a time when all hip hop fans cared about was a dude who could RAP it didn’t matter if he was fat, skinny, ugly, lazy eyed, broke, or anything else. Hip hop “fans” like you need to eat fertilizer and then take a dirt nap with all that extra bullshit. I’m tired of all the swagg shit, the fashion shit, the big chains, the $200k cars, and the rest of the fake shit that has infested hip hop. All that shit doesn’t mean anything because 90% of the niggas that talk about that shit can’t rap for shit.
Rezo just published my favorite comment in 2DBZ history^
Wait, hold up. Guys are actually complaining about a rapper’s muscles now? Dude is not sexy enough for you? WHAT? hahaha
I hope I don’t come off sounding like a hater, but A. Hole needs to be more accurate and outgoing in his interviews. this guy is a complete moron when it comes to representing himself and his work to the media. he doesn’t come off looking like a savvy informative artist. he couldn’t even think of one verse to spit to his fans at that moment, can you believe this fuckin’ guy? if a microphone was a bike he would be needing training wheels right now. the only truthful thing he said in the interview was the crowd was not feeling his performance. the “feeling sorry” Jon Moreno almost busted in tears and said half the crowd was not from that school. A. Hole needs to buckle up and brace himself for the worst. I believe his album is not gonna drop in 2010. the album will be pushed back probably til 2011 so he can learn more about the business and look like he know what he’s doing. right now, his career is in a “deer in front of headlights” mode.
^^^^lol i wouldnt say Clooney is who your talking about since he gave props to Cole and was prolly joking but your pretty much right…
So it’s not “Cole World”? Man, that was a dope title.
Lmfao at NYC…you stay on j. cole’s dick.
And I agree that Cole World was a sick title. It flows off the tongue (no homo), incorporates his name, has a double meaning, and the fact that it’s released in the summer follows his idea/words set in Who Dat: “When you thinking bout summertime, I’m thinking bout the winter”
Oh well. We’ll see if he comes up with something better.
^^^ You’re an idiot Cole has a college degree where he majored in Communication. Did it ever occur to you that he comes off that way in interviews on purpose? He doesn’t like to put himself out in the open because then fans judge you and that came from his own mouth. He is reserved in interviews on purpose just like he avoids saying anything controversial in interviews no matter how many times they ask him. The dude is very smart and he knows exactly what he is doing.
lol J. Cole does countless interviews and this nigga wants to critique one he does in some dudes dorm room.. u sir are a hater.. and the A. Hole thing is nice touch
and Cole World wouldve been ok if he hadnt been saying it in tracks for the last year.. Im glad its something else
I also like the fact that he only has 1 feature on his album because I hate when rappers have like 8 features on their album. I never understood that because if I want to buy your album that means I want to hear you, I don’t want to hear 8 songs with all different people. lol
cosign Rezo. I swear its like you are saying exactly whats on my mind. Cole is not some dude who is gonna rap for a minute and spend all his money , start beefs, and then break off into nowhere. Cole is a smart dude and knows his shit and on top of that Hov ain’t gonna let this dude fall.
@ REZO. who are you? A. Hole’s publicist? his lap dog psychiatrist? don’t give me that shit about he’s “reserved” in interviews. the only reason he looks like an idiot is because he doesn’t have an album out there yet. that’s the reason why he don’t even know where to start with any interview he has ever given. he’s only comfortable when he talks about other niggaz success. it’s ALWAYS Nas did it “this way” and Jay-z did it “that way” speech. he needs to get a refund in whatever college gave him that degree in communication. avoiding controversial questions is weak. I don’t hear the media asking him about the health bill or the immigration law in Arizona. dude asked him to spit a verse and you talking about that “he avoids saying anything controversial” BS. GTFOH with that excuse.

Thanks for having a sense of humor my dude.
Funny that some of you are actually trying to play the homo card here over a joke while simultaneously jumping to Cole’s defense like I shitted on your husband or something.
He’s easily my favorite up and coming artist, bar none, for a multitude of reasons. I just don’t feel the need to list his attributes every time he pops up on 2db. So if you looked at that image and it didn’t occur to you that he seems to have the physique of a tall infant, good for you.
^exactly
round of applause for clooney, one of the only real dudes to post comments here outside of myself
thank god its not Cole World
He should name his album timeless
*people are really suckin each other off in the c section lol.
All ya’ll niggaz is pussy… Nuff said… No back n forth internet bickering. Simple n plain fuck ya’ll bitches ya feelins ya thoughts ya mamas & ya next comments. Fuk ya Life!!!!! ……..& as always….. FUCK U!

“physique of a tall infant”
lmfao *dead
George Clooneys commment was just a joke. The person that sounded off is the problem with hip hop. Lighten up fool
co-sign with big_e, he played the title out over the past year..glad it’s somethin different
at the end of the day it seems alot of yall is critical but i agree with alot of points. its a 50/50 toss with whether or not J.Cole is being reserved because of some knowledge of communications, or maybe he just not up there with his confidence. He still nice.
I like the fact that (hopefully) he’s leaning towards a no to 1 feature. i think he’s lyrically strong enough with the personality and style to carry a 12 or 13 track album solo. It worked for Skyzoo and his album is top 3 of last year.
This guy is just a tough talking Will Smith with a co-sign. And a communication degree is arguably a step up from general studies and recreation. Lot a pressure on j.cole from these fickle hip hop fans.
skyzoo’s album was boring. he didn’t carry it for half of it.
j. cole is dope.
fuck the faggot that’s worried about his arms
He Should Call His Album Detox Because This Motherfucker Ain’t Never Coming Out……
It’s Coming Out In August And He Still A Under Ground Artist Nigga Please
Jay-z Co-sign Drake More Than This Nigga > I Ain’t Lying
J.Cole Is The Next Beanie Sigel Mark My Words In Stone
Ha!
@Rezo
My nigga. CALM DOWN. He made a fucking JOKE (humor, you know) about a nigga being skinny. Jay-Z look like a fucking camel and he’s still dope and people buy his shit. Niggas been makin fun of how people look for DECADES in rap. Your favorite rappers been on that swag shit forever. The 90s was nothing but it. You had biggie jay and nas talkin about how fresh they looked. RAKIM the fuckin god mc was doing that shit too. So don’t talk down to niggas like YOU ARE WHATS WRONG WITH HIPHOP. Jay Elec is dope but I can ALSO make fun of his bug eye while purchasing his (hisnevergonnafuckincomeout) album. J. Cole is easily my favorite cat in YEARS but the nigga need to hit up the fuckin gym. Why is that a fucking problem?
Lighten the fuck up. Watch a comedy show. Niggas aren’t killin hip-hop for noticing and commenting on how people look. We been doing that for years in rap battles and shit. Them funky haircuts that we mighta got back in the day was cause we wanted to be FRESH. Ask big daddy kane about it. Niggas care about how they look and sometimes people comment on it. don’t mean that they are destroying the art form.
Just buy the fucking album and then say whatever the hell you like.
@ What I Said
Cole is the best new artist in years and Hov isn’t giving him the push at all. I feel like after Drakes album drops some of the mainstream attention is going to turn to Cole. Nobody outside of the internet knew who the fuck B.o.B. was until “Nothin on You” dropped just a month or two before his album so the fact that May just started and he doesn’t have that radio buzz yet doesn’t mean shit.
Hov needs to start getting out and supporting/co signing him though. I’m not gonna hold my breath though. Hov has always only looked out for Hov. I’ve always been Team Nas but for this next generation I’m Team Cole fo sure.
Man cole is ill as fuck, but that little goatee? Cmon dude. I have no respect for this muhfucka cause of that shit. I bet he cant suck a good dick neither….
Sup guys, it was me who did the interview at Southern Connecticut State University in New Haven. Haha and nah it wasnt in my dorm room lmao it was backstage but yeah that room was small as shit. Thanks for listening to the interview I appreciate it and good looks to 2dopeboyz for posting it.
oh and I said half the crowd wasnt from here cuz there was mad drunk people trying to act a fool during the show so I didnt want him to have a bad look to my school, you know? Some drunk bitch went on stage and smeared make up all over his sweater..
@olugbam
While i agree rezo did overreact to the skinny comment, I think his overall point was directed towards the fans who like an artist based on the clothing line they wear and not his music/talent. those dudes/chicks are a detriment to hip hop.
@george clooney that tall infant thing was effin hilarious homie

LMAO @ Rezo sayin Clooney is what’s wrong with hip hop & hip hop fans. Pot calling the (joking) kettle black. And you’re salivating over a COMM degree and then at the same time saying J.Cole dumbs it down is hilarious. Aren’t you the same dude who said Andre 3K is wack? ahahahahahaha.
@ ncrep – Anyone can claim another person is a ‘dumbass’, but it takes someone with a brain to support said claim. Further proof J.Cole’s fans are spoiled kids with no life experience. J.Cole being one of the better less-shitty MCs doesn’t make him great. And to the comment that J.Cole is Will Smith with a co-sign…at least Will Smith has charisma and confidence. Ask this guy anything in an interview and he couldn’t less sure of himself or engaged.
on another note. was driving home from grocery store yesterday and Who Dat came on the radio and then he won the “battle of the beats” against some other song. J. Cole on the come up.
Is this the same Rezo that said OutKast was trash a while back? I kno that shit was kinda old, and everybody’s entitled to their opinion but DAMN… I can honestly say that to this day, that shit hurts me 2 my damn heart (Bernie Mac voice). I really though I would live my whole life and never read those words in the same sentence.
Carry on…
he really should name the album “Dat King Cole” , i’ll talk a half a point if they use it
quit bitchin.
it was southern ct state uni… when ‘who dat’ [unmastered] came on 2dbz on that monday (4/26), he was on hot 93.7 [ct's hip hop station] that wednesday (4/28) and performed @ southern that thursday…
The title should be “The Blow Up”. If i remember right, he mentioned this in his song ‘last call’ on the warm up mixtape
“I came up, I warmed up, the blow up, the next up”…
“Physique of a tall infant”
