Been bumping Cole since he busted out on the scene a couple years back with “Lights Please”. I respect him as an artist for many reasons but my admiration for Jermaine Cole comes from his active pursuit of a higher education. He is realistic and on his track “College Boy” he acknowledges the importance of an education and how “young niggas” better go and get it he also elaborates on his back up plan which includes going for his Masters. Just in case anything goes wrong but with this highly anticipated album – I do not see anything going wrong anytime soon for this patient cat. I will be listening to the whole album today. . . currently vibin’ to “Sparks Fly” track number 21 and it is nothing but HOTNESS!
