i'm a proud papa. Picked my daughter up from daycare and was greeted with a letter stating that my daughter would be transitioning to the toddler class. Kids usually graduate to that class at 11 months. She's not even 8 months. "We're proud to announce that your daughter is cognitively and physically advance, and is ready to move on to a greater challenge..." s--- made me smileJLim51, wizkashiva, Criza Malone Hamilton and 20 others like this. -

Sup Y'all, been lurking the thread for a minute, even back during the FHD leak on JCN, was gonna start posting on here earlier but with uni exams finally out the way I got the time to do it now
BTW I couldn't really think of a name so decided to name my account after the GOAT drink
Saw Cole at the 02 on Monday and I swear to God it was one of the best nights, if not the best night of my life, lining up 8 hours in line to be a the front was so worth it. Have been following Cole ever since The Warm Up, I remember telling my friends in school back in like 09 to listen to Cole and they would all be like "J. Who?"
Now literally the same people who didn't even want to listen back then came with me to the 02 show and song every song word for word. It's so amazing to see the progress, in both the music and the live performance he puts on, I've been with Cole every step of the way from his performances in Club KOKO in front of under a thousand people, to the Hammersmith show for the Born Sinner Tour, and now to see him selling out arenas is a beautiful moment. His music has got me through so much in life and inspired me to do so much more for myself.
It truly feels like Cole is one my best friends or cousins who's made it big
FHD was already a dope project to me, just behind Warm Up and FNL, but man the whole tour and the live instrumentation really just took the album to a whole new level. Cole really is the GOAT performer. Every time I have listened to it since I just appreciate it more and more, like LondonSimba said earlier every song is truly a moment in itself and I am not afraid to say its now his best project to me, I love all the songs, even Hello
After the show I talked with Cozz and Omen, Omen told me both ROTD2 and Elephant Eyes would be coming around June, but then again he told me Elephant Eyes was dropping in "a few months" back when I met him in late 2013 at the WDMC tour
Both were real cool and approachable, Cozz also said he is dropping a new project soon. I ain't really a fan of Bas or Omen but I think Cozz is so dope tbh. Cozz & effect was an excellent project imo, and the fact that was his first body of work made it even more impressive for me.
On the way back from the show I was listening to music on my phone and A star Is Born came on shuffle, I swear I almost shed a tear after Cole's verse. He's come so far and time has flown by, can't believe he 30 now

Just got back,
had a few drinks with friends, got to yell out today, s--- was too great. Small place for sure, right near my university.
Shout out to @Kold @Head Bussa @Fire Squad, Cole legion
Shout out to @JRH909 for the hookup - forever appreciated.
Shout out to @BrotherMan for trying to divert Cole tha God's shine with his kendrick posts.
f--- it, shout out to @AnalOnFirstDate for the GOAT name, @Kvp187 for moderating out there with a cold fist, @Equis the Caribbean countries are all sick, any resort if possible is amazing.
I'm feeling too nice right now
On to the performance, man it was great.Energy was fantastic & almost everyone knew the words to all the songs. Crowd let us rap to a few verses on our own. No bad odors, although there was a little bit of buzz, if you know what i mean
Back to the Topic is GOAT, I wanted more FNL but it doesn't fit with the happy/joyous feeling of it all. Speaking of which, ALL songs sound even better live. Hello, Work Out, Can't Get Enough, Power Trip, are great in it. & the little ramble leading up to No Role Modelz was funny as f---.
Some white lady behind me though sounded like she was at a museum, her boyfriend invited her (I overheard)Anyways she was going on about "oh that's nice" & "oh that was actually nice" & then thought the parts where he talked to the crowd were boring. SMH.
But yes, Cole is great live. Every fan of his should go see him at least once. Get some good seats though cuz nikkas bring out cell phone stands and s--- to hold up to the sky. I'm pretty tall and after the cameras go up it's crazy. Brought my girlfriend & was pleasantly surprised to find a few friends there. G.O.M.D. & Fire Squad & A Tale of Two Cities are just too good live. Great time. But Cole really needs to do something with that hair, looking like he's related to the Weeknd or some s--- with those extra millions he's stacked up
He said Lights Please wasn't part of the schedule & that we got him to play it. We threw out names to him like Welcome, See World, Whose World is This, & some other song I didn't hear but he said he didn't know the lyrics too off the top.
Low-key wanted him to bring out Drake for his In the Morning verse, what with Drake not having anything to do since the Raptors got swept
All in all. 11/10 night. Great performance. Vinyls were shown to be autographed, Cole saw and was like "how you got the vinyl & I ain't even got that s--- yet? How you beat me?" but he's usually late to a lot of things

Gotta keep it 100 for a second, I know cole lacks that classic album, but this man is selling out arenas off an album where he wrote every lyric, rapped every bar, sang every hook, and produced near 80% of the album. He did this s--- all on his own, no help from hov or any super producers smh. That s----s legendary right thereMan single handedly brought back artist development.

I been drinking so I'm in my feelings, but what I say next is from the heart. Idk any of you but I enjoy conversing with all of you. Being able to share thoughts about music & life in general is beautiful, to me. MUSIC IS LIFE! I dedicate Big Sean's one man can change the world to all you. We differ in opinions but that's the beauty of this s---. Whatever you're doing in life, do that s--- to the fullest. Never take it for granted. Remember happiness is a choice. Choose to be happy. Choose to be altruistic. Choose to go harder. Choose to be better tomorrow.
One love,

Here's a story for you guys, I know a lot of you are OG but some of you may not know this story so I want to share it.
This one time I was doing some art for a few people on the site and @missy hit me up with a photo of herself. Well admittedly she looked good and I guess I was parched that day so the thirst got to meI responded with something stupid like 'd--- u look good if i didn't have a girl i would date you
' .. i added a heart to it too
Anyways @ODB got a screenshot of it and posted a thread about it. s--- was as bad as an ether can getbut he made it worse. dude went to the official J. cole nation twitter and tweeted 'owner of J. Cole Nation gets ethered' and posted a link to the thread.
2 years later it's all love. we started a culture blog together fam. he taught me the art of eating a--- too. it's the internet, nothing should be taken personal. -

ODB would be like
"Melissa, I just want you to know how lucky you are to have this man in your life. I just want you to always remember, even when he makes you feel like s---, no one can out-fart him.
God Bless"Last edited: Jan 21, 2015wizkashiva, Criza Malone Hamilton, DreamvilleToronto416 and 19 others like this. -
