For the most part, J.Cole’s been tight lipped as to the details of his debut album. But during his appearance yesterday on The All Out Show on Shade 45 he says that he’s eyeing an August release. He also says that he begins shooting his video “Who Dat” next week.

Are they really gonna release that mixtape sounding track as a single, LIGHTS PLEASE is more listenable than that annoying ass hook on Who Dat.
its a street single dick head….
Haha shit will never drop so soon, we’ll speak again in 2, 3 years!
T.I and Jeezy are both dropping that month, not good fora new artist who only has buzz online, he should wait and establish himself a little first………..We all see the mediocre numbers B.O.B put up and that nuthin on you track is everywhere(I liked Bob’s album too, no hate)
jeezy dropping june 22 i thought…
August is in 3 months…I’d like to see what they got planned to get his buzz up in that short period of time…Who Dat is cool, but I don’t think that’s the record thats gonna heat him up…maybe they have a track featuring Hov that will be his actual lead “money” single…let’s hope they get out there with no substantial push backs
Nevermind…just listened, he just said they haven’t even gave him a date and August is just guesswork on his behalf…which means more than likely, August is a no go
lets wait till he gets a radio single before ya’ll start downplaying him…who dat is sumthing to get em talking the radio single is sumthing to cross him over to the mass public!….he might drop a single that’s a smash hit who knows!..it doesn’t take much but good concept great hook and decent or above average lyrics and he’s good money!….its to early to tell….
@Sutter Kane that would make sense if he wus just tryin to b here today, gone tomorro. but hes gonna b round 4 a while, and if he doesnt drop anythin soon, he’ll start losin the buzz he’s got goin on now. Jay, Nas, bunch of legends today werent sellin albums like that at first, shit took a while, it aint everybody thats gonna get that ‘drake/50 buzz’ from the start, so no point in waitin out for just that, work on a career
Are people feeling this dude like that? Lights please, nice. Cameos good.
Solid single & album prowess? Lets think, hes under Jay who has a terrible track record of grooming talent under him. But at least he’s better than Wale.
@ pifflighty
I understand it’s a street single, but it doesn’t mean it’s good. The chorus is trash imo, that ain’t gonna have the streets bubbling, it’s definetly no “get at me dog” or “wanksta”
I actually interviewed him on Thursday night.. He came to my school and I write for the school paper so I got in backstage.. He told me that “Who Dat?” is actually the official single despite it sounding like a street single.
If you were J. Cole, would you seriously drop your debut album around the same time as T.I. and Jeezy?…… I wouldn’t be surprised if his album gets pushed back.
Man you guys are industry analytical geniuses.. Why aren’t y’all working for labels or something, cuz you obviously know how to break new artists…
^^^^^^^^^^^^^LMAO
Does he know that T.I. is coming out in august? T.I. gone at least do 500k first week.
J Cole is the leader of the new school but he needs to drop a more proper single for the masses. Who Dat is more of street single if ya ask me.
n y’all kip comparing dis wack ass song 2 over, nigga who dat? Drizzy dat n its OVER 4 dis jerk cole, he can’t write shit n can’t do hooks justice
@ lyrykal
You lame as hell. Have you even heard The Warm Up? I hate when niggas talk shit about something they know nothing about. Get Drake dick out yo mouth!
[…] his debut, Cole World. He also confirmed that the videoshoot for “Who Dat” begins next week. ~ RR Share & […]
@omega
thats is exactly what it is..a Street Single…
J. Cole………..
“We knew when we put it out, its not like a number one. We weren’t aiming for the
charts but its something that’ll get my core fan base excited and get more fans.
I feel like Jay had a perfect single selection. From ‘DOA’ to ‘Run This Town’
all led up to ‘Empire State of Mind’ perfectly. I wanna kinda try to follow,
it’ll be ill, because ‘DOA’ and even ‘Run This Town’, people was like I dunno
how its gonna do but it was all leading up to ‘ESM.’”
Why yall worrying about his singles??? WHO DAT is the street single
Personally, I woulda wished LIGHTS PLEASE was the first single. but hey…
if not, Jay-Z can always push the button and have a rihanna or kanye feature on J.Cole first single
dont worry bout him..he’ll do good!
COLE WORLD baby!
Its gonna be a Cole Summer (Corny I know)
Thats assuming he drop this summer, thats a lil too soon though cuz he aint put shit out yet. Not single, album title, nothing. I doubt he drop this August….maybe next August though
Cant wait for this!

ALBUM IS GONNA BE A SOLID DEBUT!!!! KEEP DOING YA THING J. COLE!!!!!
DON’T HATE ON MY OPINION!!!!
I Call This Shit Detox Because This Motherfucker Ain’t Never Coming Out……
It’s Coming Out August And He Still A Under Ground Artist Nigga Please
Jay-z Don’t Even Co-sign This Nigga
Jay-z Co-sign Drake More Than This nigga
J.Cole Is The Next Beanie Sigel Mark My Words
Ha!
Cole is the best new artist in years and Hov isn’t giving him the push at all. I feel like after Drakes album drops some of the mainstream attention is going to turn to Cole. Nobody outside of the internet knew who the fuck B.o.B. was until “Nothin on You” dropped just a month or two before his album so the fact that May just started and he doesn’t have that radio buzz yet doesn’t mean shit.
Hov needs to start getting out and supporting/co signing him though. I’m not gonna hold my breath though. Hov has always only looked out for Hov. I’ve always been Team Nas but for this next generation I’m Team Cole fo sure.
J.cole says some crazy shit on that track.. I like it.. But its not it wont crossover to top 40 radio.. Not that it matters to me or anything. I jus bump sirius.. All out show army boyy…

^^^^^^^^^^
LMAO You Right Tho Jay- Z Do Co-sign Drake More Than J.Cole . I Think Jay Would’ve Sign Drake Instead If He Got The Chance Too Do So
Wait Wait Wait…
@ the dumbshit who thinks ‘DRAKE’ is better at hooks than J.Cole.
Come’on son. don’t use that crab ass hook on ‘Over’ as an example of a ‘good hook’.
Nigga that’s the same cliche/typical bullshit that people wanna hear. not nothing special.
Let’s break it down….
“I know way to many people here right now, that I didn’t know last year…who the fuck are yall?”
The SAAAAME, I didnt have friends till the fame came crap that we always hear from him.
Dude always sounds like a fugging baby, re-iterating the same shit all the time.
“What am i doing? What am I doing? Oh yea, that’s right, I’m doing me”
Come on nigga….this is the SAAAAAME/TYPICAL “Me against the WORLD” Bullshit that young’uns of today is caught up on. They love to hear that whole ‘ Do you cuz I’m doing me over here’ type shit that we’ve heard 200 times to date already from other artists.
Clever line right? no…that’s typical bullshit that Drake new he could get away with because lines like those entertain dickheads like you who wanna put up the facade of “OH I don’t need nobody so why these niggas around me. Get away, I’m doing me muh fucka!”
Get outta here….that shit ain’t no better than J.Cole’s shit. J.Cole isn’t trying to appeal to the masses with that sell-out of a hook that drake did.
When you heard a verse or song from J.Cole after a friend was playing it, you knew that nigga beasted that hoe……so what did you ask your friend after you heard a hook or verse from him?
“Ayy….Who Dat you listening too?” or “Who song is dis?”
Notice….”WHO DAT you listening too”
J.Cole’s basically saying, you don’t need to know who I am, just as long as you know when you hear my voice, I’m bringing hot shit..
@Right/What I Said
Nigga Jay-Z is not gone babysit J.Cole just cuz he on the label clown.
He only co-signs Drake cuz Drake’s got the buzz ain’t came in the mainstream by force and put in WORK. Which is what J.Cole’s doing with these features and all.
drake didn’t have a verse on BP3
j. cole did
[…] features on his album and just having one so far. Jermaine is trying to give his debut album an August release date! Cole […]
@Scob
What You Talking About Willis Drake Was About To Be On Jay-Z First Single Before Run This Town
