More quotes by J. Cole
My parents were divorced by the time I was even conscious - like I don't remember them ever being together.
J. Cole
You hate it before you played it. I already forgave ya.
J. Cole
If I lost your respect...I'm just hope you don't look at me as something you regret.
J. Cole
College isn't in everyone's hearts. I am living proof, though, that school doesn't mess up your plans. It gives you more experiences to write about.
J. Cole
I put a lot of pressure on myself. I think something's not good enough, and I won't stop until I feel like I've made it. I'm never satisfied.
J. Cole
You can't reverse fame. You can lose all the money, but you'll never lose people knowing you.
J. Cole
I'm half-black, half-white, so I basically put it like this: I can fit in anywhere. That's why I write so many stories from so many different perspectives, because I've seen so many.
J. Cole
Rhyme patterns are nothing without meanings to the words. A lot of rappers can do those flows, but the raps aren't really about anything - which is cool sometimes, but to have the flow and the message is one of my favorite things.
J. Cole
When you're headlining, people are paying to come see you specifically. It's a different kind of pressure, because you've got to deliver. You've got to give these people what they paid for. It's a different mind state, a different type of mentality, but it's honestly a pretty good problem to have, you know?
J. Cole
Sometimes I try a Mai Tai. It's so fruity. It's a little embarrassing, but I like it.
J. Cole
I think all you can really do is use the tour to kinda fill up with experiences and thoughts, and then, when you get back to the studio, or in some type of creative environment, that's when you release everything that you've encountered on tour.
J. Cole
I'm not a conscious rapper, all those things we talk about, the struggle, the pain, the outlook to the future, keep your head up. I try to put all those positive things into a regular human character, which is myself.
J. Cole
I pay attention to lyrics and I know what rap fans care about. I try to write for the average listener and I'm conscious of the mainstream without selling out.
J. Cole
Tupac was just so passionate about what he believes in and not afraid to say anything.
J. Cole
The same ones you love will bring you pain.
J. Cole
I met Will Smith twice. I didn't talk to him for too long but I was trying to let him know that my age group grew up watching him - he was the coolest guy on television and the coolest guy in movies.
J. Cole
The thing about being an artist today is you get to develop right in front of people's eyes before you even put out an album.
J. Cole
Either you play the game or let the game play you and be that broke sucka talkin bout I stayed true
J. Cole
I never really told anybody that I'm a rapper. I wasn't walking around being like, Yo, check out my mixtape! It was more of a secret grind.
J. Cole
I didn't even have to be a big fan of someone to enjoy hearing them speak. I remember when Nikki Giovanni came - I wasn't really familiar with her. But she said some things I'll never forget. Like, okay, for example, she was talking about the amount of beef that's in the world. There are so many McDonald's, Burger Kings, Wendy's.
