J. Cole – "Blow Up" (Produced By J. Cole)
Audio clip: Adobe Flash Player (version 9 or above) is required to play this audio clip. Download the latest version here. You also need to have JavaScript enabled in your browser.
With the job market in the shape it’s in, dreams of a bright and successful future can sometimes get placed on the backburner for present-day solutions. Degrees don’t seem to hold the same value they used to and chasing dreams often seems like the most logical thing for a person to do at times. That’s what J. Cole is doing. That’s probably what he’s always going to do.
His debut album  is scheduled hit shelves late October and promises to be one entrenched in struggle, progress, dreams and reality. The track “Blow Up” features all that and one in which Cole reflects on his rise to his present day status and what the future holds for his career. It’s a must listen because of the content of the song. Plenty of people should find common ground to some of the lyrics especially if you’re working a job or in school with bigger dreams than the four walls you’re currently sitting in can confine.

Jermaine runs the whole show on this latest leak from his upcoming debut album. He proves his worth behind the boards with a typically dope Cole beat, and you already know that he went in on the mic. I can’t remember the last time this guy dropped a bad track. The record is untitled but is still due for an October release. Props to KC. [...]
