J. Cole is calling his new album, Born Sinner, his best work yet. And he is excited to share. Today he brings us Truly Yours, a 5-song EP of all new music that in one way or another, just doesn’t fit into his new album. That doesn’t mean they are lacking for any quality as “Can I Holla At Ya” sets the mood right for the reflective music that fans know and love from Cole. Peep his letter to the fans and the new project below.
It’s time.
I appreciate you giving me the time I needed to grow, experiment, and find the direction for my 2nd album.. And I have.
Along the way I’ve recorded at least 4 albums worth of material, lots of it being unfinished demo versions waiting to be polished up, some of them are great songs and important stories that just won’t make the album (either they don’t fit Sonically, don’t fit Theme, or there’s just not enough space) .
Tonight, I want to give you a few of these songs because you deserve them. It’s hard as fuck for me to keep all this music from you for so long, so I know it’s been hard for you to wait. Thank you for your patience. Vibe out to these songs in their raw form, no polish.. just a lot of my soul..
The wait is over.
Truly Yours,
Born Sinner
PS- 1st single coming this week. The album is hands down my best work yet. Can’t wait to share.
