If you climbed into bed last night giddy with the expectation of unwrapping a shiny new J. Cole mixtape In the Morning, you likely started the day on a disappointing note. And if you were one of the hardcore devotees who stayed up all night, staring at your monitor in rapt anticipation of Friday Night Lights’ arrival… well, I feel for you. While previous features Before I’m Gone and Purple Rain were, to be sure, dope as hell, neither left the female half of the hip-hop nation quite as tantalized as this final leak, a collaboration between the game’s two most eligible young bachelors. Released yesterday evening, Morning finds L&X Productions serving up a delicate, piano-led beat as Cole lyrically romances one lucky chick. On the middle, T-dot ladykiller Drake grabs the mic for a guest 16 as witty as it is sensual: “Drink that dinner wine slow, I’m tryin’ to make the goosebumps on your inner thigh show, I’ll let you beat me there as far as finish lines go.” Damn!
Update: FNL is out now, download here! (SendSpace)

I really like the mellow beat! Can't wait for Friday Night Lights! Drake is a good addition. J. Cole does his thing. 4*

Def one of the best songs on this mixtape. Cole gets an A for the tape, but an F for the release via a file-sharing site (cough, cough).
2011 it will be a Cole World.

I've been a booth follower and amateur rapper for over a year now, and I feel that its time to start sharing my viewpoint.
With that said, I love this track, J. Cole's flow and control of the beat is great. Drizzy's input is short but not unheard. 4/5. |

I liked "Before I'm Gone" and i like this. Production is great as is Cole's execution. Its a track that fits someone like Drake and he's easily able to do his thing.

J. Cole has been on my radar for a little while now, a talented new artist on the come up. Nice contribution from Drake to give this song the extra little umpf it needed to make it a banger. Shout out to Roc Nation! |

In my opinion, one of the highlights on the mixtape. Deep thought provoking lyrics provided by both Drake and Cole. The production is perfect for both and overall the song is amazing! Nice collaboration.

Nice song, but i didnt like Drakes part. I also didnt expect Drake and J.Cole to do a song together, but the song will have to grow.

Very nice beat and J has not disappointed me so far. Now where or not this track really NEEDED Drake, now that could be debated, but hey, Drake is the hotness right now with his mono-tone self..lol

Darn good song, one of the best Cole songs I've heard. The piano is crazy on this song. Drake sounds like he caught a cold but otherwise, this track is great!!!!!!! Best song on FNL along with Before I'm Gone.

Oooold track and not a great one. He should've put Driz one one of his better ones. Still, Cole+Drake=3 stars at least.

I dont know what it is about J.Cole that everything sounds hitting. Maybe its that hypnitizing voice that has sharp lyrics that neva miss. Yea he baby daddy status right....
Not a huge Drake fan but its always nice to hear what he has to say |

Well Drake could recite the alphabet and it would sound sexy. J. Cole i enjoy but didn't really enjoy on this track, maybe if he added a little more seduction in the voice??

ok here goes, lets set the record straight and say I don't really like Cole's flows but obviously cliked to hear Drake's invitational contro.
But I have to say that mellow beat is pretty swanks I could put this on durin the morn. Fresh, still a bit disappointed. I think they sound tired after bout a minute |
