The sun is shining today.
In the midst of the ongoing protests on racial inequality and police brutality, J.Cole breaks silence with his first solo record of the year.
Over a gentle production by himself and Kelvin “Wu10” Wooten, Jermaine addresses racism, police brutality, wealth inequality, and his struggles of activism after strolling through a thread of a young lady’s social media timeline.
The powerful song is a response to underground rapper and activist NoName’s since deleted-tweets that called out rappers who remained silent on the current events. Cole also clarified the song shortly after its release.
The single comes weeks after the rapper attended a protest in his hometown of Fayetteville, North Carolina. Fuck a retweet.
