• J. Cole Shares 'Apparently' Music Vid [WATCH]

    J. Cole officially released his third artist album "2014 Forest Hills Drive" yesterday, Dec. 9. Though the album leaked last week, the full retrospective look into the "Fire Squad" is now available to all. He has released the music video for the 11th track on the album, titled "Apparently." Cole takes a more minimalistic approach to his video: Instead of bringing out nice cars and scantily dressed women, he kept with the down-to-earth and grounded theme of the album that focuses on family and his childhood, via "Complex." Cole keeps the personal theme of the album and the track in the video, rapping in front of grainy projections of home movies taken at his childhood home in Fayetteville, North Carolina, at 2014 Forest Hills Drive. It remains minimal with a small lighting fixture standing in for a chorus before Cole returns to his projector background of abstract imagery, similar to an iTunes visualizer. The first verse from "Apparently" hits home right away with Cole's theme of family and the home he grew up in:
