Audio: J. Cole “Grew Up Fast”

In the wee hours of the morn J. Cole decided to hop on twitter and bless his followers with some new heat (and crashed his website in the process, as usual). I enjoyed his debut LP, but the reviews were quite mixed, but I think most would agree that songs like this display the NC emcee at his finest. Listen to Cole get on some David Ruffin ish with this new joint, “Grew Up Fast.” Judging by the outro I’d say that MTV snub really lit a fire in dude. Look for his video with Missy, “Nobody’s Perfect,” to drop soon.
