Around Can’t Get Enough was one of the first songs I vividly remember listening to knowing it’s Cole
I wanna say around that time I also heard lights please on Last FM (remember when it was an actual music service?) a bunch. Think this was all around 6th grade for me so like 2010/2011 ish?
Sophomore year in HS when the Warm Up dropped
Remember immediately knowing he would be the next guy
Remember when Roc Nation was announced and Cole was the first rapper and how big of a deal that was
Crazy how many of us got to experience mixtape Cole in high school
i was looking for sounds that help you fall asleep on youtube and his album came up
my dad was playing tf outta FNL i thought cole was old head music. i didn’t really start listening to him until born sinner
09
first song I heard was I Really Mean It then Lights Please
discovered them on the iss forums (sole collector) around the same time as cudi the same way
Like 2009
First two mixtapes but they didn't really stick. Had to circle back a few times. Friday Night Lights sold me like everyone else. So I was on board by the time his debut was being rolled out. Didn't love the singles. Never hit on a project level ever again. Some good songs and features though
summer 2010 (who dat music video) going into senior year high school, then of course the legendary friday night lights came that fall and set s*** ablaze
who dat came first for me, then the songs that dropped before friday night lights like blow up, premeditated murder and purple rain i remember i burned to a mix CD along with a bunch of kanye good friday songs
Who Dat on 106 and Park in like? 2010??
Heard Jay had a new artist AND he’s from Carolina, been locked in since!!
