The third studio album by J.Cole "2014 Forest Hills Drive" hit platinum not too long ago, this is probably old news but the questions that reverberate are "How" and "Why".
How; According to Inquisitor, "the album sold over 300,000 copies in the first week and over 500,000 copies in the first month". A few months later a million wasn't far off.
Why; The album did not only sell a million copies, but it broke a 25-year old stigma of "featureless" albums that made the same sales mark.
It is safe to say that the Fayetteville man has made his mark on the Rap scene with his "story-telling" gift that makes him unique. In addition, word is that it was originally a double album, We can't help but think about the songs that didn't make it to the album.
Most Importantly, Kendrick Lamar (The Mind), who like J.cole (The Soul) represent the "Black Culture" are working and an album together, I felt the zing! too. We can only wait and see, no further information about the album is given.
