Very few artists have the type of connection that J. Cole has with his fans.
Maybe because no one goes out of their way like he does to ensure that they're being catered to. Whether it's his iconic Dollar & A Dream Tour or selling $1 tickets to his show at Madison Square Garden, Cole has shown time and again that he deeply cares about his fanbase.
The 40-year-old started his Inevitable Audio Series last year, where he shared invaluable stories from The Come Up to 2014 Forest Hills Drive. After the conclusion of the series on December 12, Cole made good use of the platform to stay connected with his fans.
The Fayetteville legend started his own blog on January 27, and the audience was filtered out and devoid of the mess that social media usually is. However, the blog went awfully quiet after January 30, as Cole wasn’t posting anymore. The rap legend returned to his platform yesterday, owning up to his mistake of absence.
J. COLE JUST POSTED THIS BLOG ON THE INEVITABLE SITE. 👀

Cole wrote, “I knowwww mannnn. I'm off to a bad start with the consistency, but I'ma do better! Watch!!” The Dreamville founder stated that he's been “locked in on the music while also balancing family life.” It seems that having too much on his plate made Cole nearly forget about the Inevitable website.
J. Cole just uploaded this in ‘Inevitable Blog’.

But now that the rapper is back, he has plans for the blog, announcing that he would let Ibrahim Hamad and Scott Lazer also post. “I think I'm gonna let some other people post on here too, to get the vibes up. It'll motivate me to check every day, and will fuel the desire to post more," Cole explained.
Although the North Carolina artist didn’t give an update on his upcoming album The Fall Off, fans believe that since he’s locked in, he's working on it now.
