    Good move for both guys.

  11. YoYo says:

    SInce Jay-z wont support Jcole at least Drake will. Jayz is so greedy

  12. ody says:

    I wonder what all the haters saying right now ! All the critics sayin jcole is better than drake, drake is better than jcole, well looky here they working together this is wassup to young artists working togethers they both new to this…. You would have never seen this with jay and nas when they was beginning

  13. Citylivin' says:

    anybody who does a show with Drake is gonna get looked at weird by the crowd like,”who are you?” smh…..at least it’s only 5 dates.

  14. flawda says:

    LOL i already know what’s gonna happen, just from seeing J Coles live shows and seeing Drakes live shows. Cole is gonna own dude on his show, which is good because people will see how much more of a complete artist Cole is.

    Drake is bigger than Cole right now, but at one point Ja Rule was the biggest rapper in the world too. It’s about longevity, i wish you niggas would get that, fame is fleeting. J Cole is one of those 20 year career and consistent fanbase type of dudes, Drake is more of a Ja Rule, 50 Cent, Nelly,etc.

  15. mac DIESEL says:

    @ flawda

    COSIGN!!!! AT LEAST SOMEBODY BESIDES ME SEES THAT SHIT!!!!

    DON’T HATE ON MY OPINION!!!!

  16. AKILLEEZ says:

    IDK how people say Jay doesn’t care about J.Cole. He’s invested time and money into him. Jay probably set up the tour through Roc Nation which is through Live Nation, one of, if not the biggest concert and tour promotion companies in the world. Win for all parties. People are so divisive.

  17. flawda says:

    For that Jay-z doesn’t care about Cole idiots, it’s pretty obvious how they are grooming him. They are building him from the ground up (getting a core fanbase) through touring, trust me if you put on a good show then word of mouth will spread it, plus most artist make their money from shows nowadays. J Cole is not gonna be one of those dudes who oversaturates himself and whoring himself out to every artist in the mainstream, that’s not the only way to make it in the business.

    Look at Maxwell and Sade, took years off, barely collabo and came back to selling millions. It’s call having a true fanbase, not just making trendy music.

  18. 106 says:

    Cole stay on tour Roc Nation got that dude working. Funny yall always saying Jay on Drake nuts who yall think set this up for Cole??? Its business just business when Jay propose something you think Drake is going to say no?

  19. SHADY says:

    Honestly, Cole is hella boooring. sounds like kanye west without the dope beats and catchy melodies.
    Drake is a fake, if he fakes a knee Injury, fakes meeting wayne for the first time *since he’s wayne’s ghost writer*, and fakes buying Mabos to friends..you know damn well he’s a fake!
    Phoney!!

    call me a ‘hater’, I’m just a man that tells the truth.

  20. SHADY says:

    *Lambos to friends*
    typo 😀

  21. ODM3TheTruth says:

    J.Cole about to kill this man on Tour.

    He better take out those lyrics from Who Dat, Blow Up, and The Last Stretch.

    Not that Drake’s bad… but smh. It’s about to be a Cole World in Europe.

  22. Glad to see Cole and Drake making money together

  23. Black Shady says:

    Light-Skinned United LOL!!!! Gonna be a good look for my nigga Cole
    POW!!!

    Cole’s New mixtape F.N.L nov 12
    Banks’ HFM2 Nov 22

    Hip Hop Is Doing Good!

  24. irishmikey says:

    ahhhh for fuck sake no Ireland date aftr he cancels it last time!!!!!!!!!!!!im pissed!!!!!

  25. K everyday says:

    lol YN on niggas nuts like pubes

  26. Joshua says:

    Hopefully this will give J.Cole a bigger audience that he needs. It’s good to see that they can work together since everyone kept trying to have them compete against each other. It’s enough room in rap for two light skin brothers.

  27. NewMoney says:

    lmao @ booking flights

    these bloggers dont even has metro card money

  28. Fredro says:

    Its about getting money…….everyone will have opinions but at the end of the day Drake and J.Cole see the bigger picture

  29. Haters are annoying--> Android, Mac Weasel, and others says:

    at least drake is helping j cole by letting him open up his shows lol

  30. Bryce Ayy says:

    I laugh at simpletons who say “Jay-Z” doesn’t care about J.Cole.

    Jay-Z is taking the smart route and j.Cole knows that.

    Jay-Z has had artists on his team who he’s boosted so much and supported and look at them now. Irrelevant niggas. They expected J’s name to gain them the fan base needed or gain a major music status as an artist.

    Just because J.Cole’s signed to Jay-Z doesn’t mean Jay is going to give him everything and put it on his doorstep. No, he expects greatness from his artist J.Cole so he wants him to work for it.

    If J.Cole’s in the light, he’s going to be granted resources, but it’s up to J.Cole to utilize those resources and learn to find his own way to make a major impact in music to get people’s(artists/fans alike) attention instead of Jay-Z featuring J.Cole on every song he puts out or being a feature on every J.Cole track.

    Jay-Z allowed J.Colel to open for one of his BIGGEST shows that he did with Eminem. He allowed him to be a feature on his critically acclaimed “Blueprint 3”.and put him in the position to meet artists like Kanye west etc. Even Cole said he goes to Jays office asking for advice, J’s never turned him down and always gives him words of wisdom.

    Jays not leaving J.Cole stranded, he’ll guide him down the correct path to success but it takes time to become great. People didn’t really start taking Jay-Z as a serious impacting artist until the first Blueprint.

    As the saying goes “Catch a man a fish, he’ll be able to eat for a day; but if you teach him how to fish, he’ll be able to eat a lifetime”

    Jay ain’t gone do it for him, he’ll give J.Cole the proper resources, now its up to J.Cole to bait us and the masses to bite onto his music.

  31. Joshua says:

    @Bryce Ayy its good to see someone speaking intelligent on this site. I agreed with everything you just said above

  32. ME says:

    Catch a man a fish, he’ll be able to eat for a day; but if you teach him how to fish, he’ll be able to eat for a lifetime……..Cole is learning how to fish for you people who keep doubting him. I bet you haven’t listen to his mixtapes or heard @ least five of his tracks.

  33. Life After Death says:

    I’m not a huge Drake fan, but I hope him and J. Cole do a collaboration album to shut most haters up.

  34. Belize says:

    J.Cole??? Whatchu thinking dawg?

  35. D says:

    Imma get a ticket just for j.cole, and take the girl along for drake. Hopefully j.cole does some small club show in london around the date. that would be sick.

  36. Jax says:

    This is a good look for Cole. He’s going to get a lot of good exposure on that tour. I think Wiz is going to regret not linking up with Drake.

  37. Sam says:

    IT’S ABOUT TIME!!!!

    SO EXCITED FOR BOTH OF THEM!!!!

  38. Magic says:

    Jus seeing these 2 in a room together is epic

  39. DTownAllDay says:

  41. Nicki'spussy says:

    Co-sign @ paperchaser:

  42. Android says:

    look at them in that room. I see an epic nas vs camel -esque battle in the future with these two. Drake will light Jermaine up and we’ll all rotfl and die, then Cole will release an ether. *snaps out of daydream*

  43. Young Mo Fo says:

    lmao @NewMoney

    i think they tryna build cole up for mainstream success. His album wont come out until his mixtape gets known like So Far Gone, and maybe its a good thing (we get more and more free music). All i need is some music, i wanna hear him and Drake make a track together .

  44. Samyeezy says:

    Drake is tryna help Cole and yall be like “oh cole is gon kill him in his own show”. fuck outta here.
