Listen below as NPR Microphone Check talks early beginnings, the story behind his new album, Kendrick Lamar, lack of interviews and more with J. Cole!
The day after his third album, 2014 Forest Hills Drive, was released, J. Cole spoke to Microphone Check hosts Ali Shaheed Muhammad and Frannie Kelley. It was the morning before he performed “Be Free,” the song he made about Michael Brown, on Letterman. Cole said he was nervous about it, but apparently not so worried that he would change his clothes. He wore the same hoodie for this interview that he did on TV. The conversation –- Mic Check’s second with Cole — reveals a person newly comfortable with himself, his abilities and what needs to be done.
