J. Cole Under Some Heat Over "Who Dat'' Music Video

Fayetteville, North Carolina rapper J. Cole has come under fire for his latest video “Who Dat” that features students from Fayetteville State University and a local high school.

Officials are so outraged over the language and sexually explicit themes in the video that they are attempting to have the video pulled from the Internet, claiming J. Cole illegally used their high school/college logos.

“I think it shows the school and the city in a negative light,” Superintendent Frank Till Jr. said in a statement. “I think it was a legitimate mistake on the school’s part.”

Till claimed that E.E. Smith’s Principal Clinton Robinson and the school’s music director signed waivers allowing the students to participate, but the decision was not cleared with higher-ups in the school system. - AHH

Verse of the Day: The Cool Kids - One, Two

Chuck was dope but chuck is cold
As a ice cream cone in a lce land snowstorm
Feelin like a ceiling fan blowing out the window
Midway city is the city where wind blows
Fairly cold, refrigerator buried with a little bit of gold
'85 bears jersey
Infra red spike lee Jordan number fours
Bow for a second then I pause for applause
Check it out if it's froze let it thaw
Let it rain clear it out that's the proper protocol
When I steps on the court with the ball on the floor
You dribbilin around just being a ball hog
(Uh) I got my kicks out my locker
If I ain't got the shot then I dish to my partner
Step behind the arc I cross I Byron Scott-er
If you want it I got it drippin like water

#iChatsessions w/ B.o.B (Video)

"I’ve interviewed B.O.B several times and every time he is more gracious and extraverted than the last. His answers are genuine and he truly invests himself in the conversation. If you don’t know about B.o.B yet, shame on you. He’s not only a good musician, but has been on the grind hard for the past 2 years to put himself on a different level than most artists coming out."
