Few years back before I met you. My life was nothing but wack. I remember the first day I heard your song, that one you called RICH NIGGAS.
I was like "who's this person that's spitting these bars? Then at age 16 when I moved in with my uncle after my dad's terminal illness.
I found your CD's scattered all over his room like left over pizzas. I remember playing LOVE YOURS all day till my uncle got back from work.
He stared into my eyes and said "That's the realest musician I can ever recommend to you" since then, after my morning chores; I'll collapse on my uncle's blue old couch and sing along with every track of yours that shuffled up.
Today am a man. Today I've grown wiser and realized that God placed you in my life at that particular period when I needed a muse desperately.
LOST ONES made me live carefully when dealing with the opposite sex.
LOVE YOURS made me understand the power of believing in myself and what I've got at any moment.
MIDDLE CHILD made me see the future that a time of transition will always come and my attitude at that time matters.
THE WARM UP ALBUM taught me lessons my teachers in school never knew in order to teach me.
PRETTY LITTLE FEARS opened my eyes to creativity in writing music.
Trust me, every track of yours sits well with my spirit and motivates me in ways that no other musician has ever done.
You're the I've come across and I look forward to that day that I'll glare into your eyes and tell you all these words and more.
I love you, J. Cole.
