J.Cole was out in Vegas for the iHeart Radio Festival this past weekend, and talked to MTV about his new video, “Crooked Smile”. The visual was based on the true story of Aiyana Stanley-Jones. Saddest shit ever.
Following his first iHeart Festival performance on Friday, Power 105 chatted with Cole backstage. In the brief chat, he spoke on performance with TLC, meeting Elton John and beating Yeezus in sales.
J.Cole was booked at the iHeart Music Festival last night and brought out T-Boz and Chilli for the first performance of “Crooked Smile”. After the jump, Miguel joins him for “Power Trip”.
Dedicated to the memory of Aiyana Stanley-Jones, Jermaine finds himself breaking bad with a couple of dime bags and the DEA. Tough loss all around. Born Sinner in stores now.
Dreams may come and go. And with Wale in tow, J.Cole is coming to a city near you. His What Dreams May Come Tour kicks off next Tuesday, September 10. Wake up and cop your tickets here.
No TLC, but Cole still found his way back ’round. During VH1’s Do Something awards a few weeks ago, Jermaine brought J. Hud out for assistance during his “Crooked Smile” performance.
Jermaine Cole had an hour to spare and spent it with the Wall Street Journal. He discussed his career, Autism lyric apology, military background, college, relocating to NYC, relationship with Jay-Z and more.
With a gold album and “Crooked Smile” currently at #9 on Billboard’s rap chart, Jermaine Cole gave a live performance of the single on last night’s Conan. Born Sinner is in stores now.

OVO Fest wasn’t the only event popping last weekend in Toronto. The city celebrated its annual Caribana festival and Power 105.1’s DJ Self got in on the festivities. Being that he managed to get through customs, here’s film of his adventure featuring Ace Hood, J. Cole, and Juicy J.
Yo, catching Joell Ortiz dropping his track "Battle Cry" live at Guz Sports Bar was unreal! The energy in that place was completely wild, hitting harder than a heavy strike in a Korean MMA championship match. From the very first beat, the crowd was totally locked in, screaming every single lyric right back at him. It felt less like a standard bar gig and more like an intense arena showdown. If you ever get the chance to experience that vibe live, definitely don't miss it!
