J. Cole Does it for the “Killers” (Listen & Download)

Posted by Nathan S. on 03/15/11 | Filed under Top Stories, Downloads, J. Cole

J. Cole, the man I think we all wish had thrown down a verse on yesterday's "All of the Lights (Remix)", is back with some new dopeness in the form of "Killers", an honest, lyrically deep and eminently rewind-worthy new joint. Now this is what real hip-hop is supposed to sound like - does Cole ever put out weak sauce? Ok, good point. Other than that Rihanna joint, does Cole ever put our weak sauce?

"Killers" is off a compilation project from Alex Haldi called "The Glorification of Gangster, which will also feature Jon Connor, Elite, Rittz and many more. And if you think you don't know Alex, you do. Just check out the roster of art work he's done.

By the way, echoes of Queen's "Bohemian Rhapsody" on this one: "Momma, just killed a man / put the gun against his head, pulled the trigger now he's dead...."

bitcloud7	That momma part of Bohemian Rhapsody is the best part of that song. This Cole is a different take on it, but no less ill. Big ups to Cole and Queen.

iMg	I was wondering if you were gonna post this. I'm slowly turning into a J. Cole Stan, and that should tell you all you need to know of my opinion of this song.

Young Mo Fo	I feel like Im going to be old and talking trash about rappers in 2030, saying that they should all sound like J.Cole.. (If the world doesnt end.) This guy sounds like he really knows what he wants to do with his rap skill, and he puts so much into his music!

Young Mo Fo

If I had to guess an album date, I have two guesses.

July 2011 or November 2011

Those seem like the right type of dates, but you never know. Could be sooner or later.

If you look at Jay-Z's history when he first got started, J.Cole already kind of seems that way. Besides that he has a good deal (as far as we know). I really hope Jay-Z will release the album because he has a very big potential artist in his hands. He has a possible future great, and I'm saying this as a fan and as a hip hop fan. He just gives that Nas mixed with Tupac feel to his music, with a splash of Kanye and Jay-Z (at times).

Randy Mercer	I'd rather J. Cole released the album in July 2011 because November has been like a cluster fuck in both 09 and 2010.
