J. Cole can’t be and won’t be stopped. His latest album, 4 Your Eyez Only, went platinum and debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 chart. This is not the only time the Roc Nation rapper has achieved this; the first was with his album 2014 Forest Hills Drive, which featured songs like “No Role Modelz” and “Wet Dreamz.” That album garnered a Grammy nomination, among other accolades such as winning Album of the Year at the 2015 BET Hip-Hop Awards and Top Rap Album at 2015’s Billboard Music Awards.
J. Cole’s music has a lot of meaning behind it—2014 Forest Hills Drive was all about personal experiences and 4 Your Eyez Only has a similar concept, with singles like “Neighbors” and “Deja Vu.” Following up the album with the 4 Your Eyez Only Tour, which has received rave reviews, J. Cole takes fans on a musical journey, busting out songs from the album as well as classics like“Can’t Get Enough” and “Power Trip,” which put him on the map to success.
