Context Heartwarming / JCole

Go To

1* "Lights Please"
2* "Lost Ones"
3* A lot of his more introspective work definitely applies.
4* Before he got signed, the fact he stood outside in the rain for ''four hours'' to give Music/JayZ a beat he made. [[spoiler: Jigga turned him down]].
5* The fact that he set up a foundation for disadvantaged children living in his home city of Fayetteville, North Carolina. It made news when he took a coachload of disadvantaged children to Carowinds theme park, even though [[SugarWiki/HeartwarmingMoments he tried to keep it under wraps to ensure the day was all about the children]].
6* While "Let Nas Down" is a TearJerker of a song, the official remix features the man himself, in response. Inversely titled "Made Nas Proud", Nas makes it clear that not only is he not disappointed in Cole for his song decisions, but he understands the pressure to have hit songs for his early projects compared to his more recent releases (The first album freedoms and them fourth album pressures/A big difference between 'em but I get why you said it), before advising him that you can indeed have it both ways (While you was writin' down my rhymes I was just tryna show you/That if you say what's on ya mind, you can stand the test of time) before reminding him repeatedly that his song was to the contrary (Now I'm playin' Born Sinner loud, saw you live, rock the crowd/ Like wow, you made your nigga Nas proud/So you ain't let Nas down/It's just part of the game, becoming a rap king, my nigga/ Youain't let Nas down/ How that sound? Here the crown, pass it to you like nothin', nigga/ You ain't let Nas down).
7* His verse on "Prove It" by Big K.R.I.T., in which he shouts out K.R.I.T. himself as well as one of his first fans named Felicia.
