J. Cole recently connected with fans through his personal blog, “The Algorithm”, revealing which track from “The Fall-Off” currently stands as his favorite.
The rapper from North Carolina took the opportunity to reflect on the past month, sharing insights about his journey since releasing his seventh album.
He also recounted highlights from his unique “Trunk Sale Tour,” during which he traveled the country in an old Honda Civic. Along the way, he sold the album directly out of his car trunk and spent time listening to it alongside fans.
“This post is just me checking in and saying thank you for all the love on the album,” he wrote before mentioning that he’s getting mentally prepared to hit “The Fall-Off Tour”.
“From the YouTube videos I see, to the Tik-Tok videos, IG and Twitter posts that make it to me, it’s the best feeling when I see people that feel the same way I do about the music. For real. It’s officially a month after The Fall-Off dropped, and I’m still over here playing it every day religiously as if I’m not the one that’s rapping on it.”
He continued by discussing how he noticed fans on social media and YouTube sharing their favorite songs from the album. He also shared his own choice, while hinting that there are a few tracks worthy of being the top pick on any day.
“Some of my favorite comments to see are the ones that say something like, ‘Man, every time I play this album I end up with a new favorite,’” he said.
“It’s the highest compliment, and in my mind I be like ‘I FEEL you!’ I felt the same way listening to the album before it even dropped, and I still feel like that right now. I usually drop a project and be so tired from working on it that I don’t want to hear it once it’s out. But with this one it’s different. Currently my favorite song is ‘The Let Out’… ‘Poor Thang’ and ‘I Love Her Again’ are creeping back up there too.”
Cole concluded the post by sharing his intention to step beyond his comfort zone by participating in interviews and committing to more consistent updates on his blog.
