With Born Sinner in stores in 5 days, Cole is prepping the people.

The momentous date in hip-hop, June 18th, is well under a week away, and J. Cole is leading a nationwide campaign. The Roc Nation prince paid Power 106 L.A.’s ‘Backstage Breakfast’ series a visit yesterday, and ran through a few of his hits, most notably his newest official single, “Crooked Smile”. He performed the cut with live instrumentation backing him, making way for a very dope rendition of the track. Watch the clip below and get ready for his sophomore album, Born Sinner, in 5 days folks. 5 days.
