After rocking out to Lights Please and listening to DJ Z’s recent interview with the up-and-coming J. Cole, I was impressed by the young Roc Nation signee’s intelligence and maturity, but if I could extend him any bit of advice, it would be to avoid naming tracks Unabomber; you know, considering that the Unabomber was a crazy white guy with a beard who lived in a cabin and sent people mail bombs. But questionable title choices aside, Unabomber is actually a damn good track, a hip-hop catharsis that allows Cole to release his frustration with all the fools in his path over some melodically rocking production from Cole himself. And for any Cole fans out there concerned about his mental health, remain calm. As he says himself, “Don’t worry, I’m just ventin, the late night thoughts of a n**ga on a mission.” Unabomber isn’t currently attached to any album, but with building buzz like this, it’s only a matter of time until Hova sets Cole loose on the world with a debut album.

This song first appeared on the Rap Chart on November 9, 2009

When Jermaine hit me up on Friday about this record, I expressed how impressed I was with his work. In turn, he expressed how excited he was as well. It is awfully refreshing to hear artists truly excited about their work. Mr. Cole isn't going through the motions here, he is making waves.

No more Drake comparisons. They're both hot right now. Drake's like a year ahead in publicity, but J. Cole is his own man. I love Drake as well but I don't want them to get paired together. Their styles are distinct

Great flow, meaningful/smart lyrics, self produced, passionate, REAL lyrics (literally, not real as in "da realist"), ear for melody, just venting... what more could you ask for?!
Mixtape is great, already a fan, I hope he becomes big!

Productions nice from Cole, but its his lyrics that take centre stage on this track.

I gotta agree with XuUP17, I'm not hearing the Drake comparison here. Cole's got a deeper voice and a more straightforward, harder style. They're maybe in the same ballpark, but definitely not the same player. Anyway, Cole's obviously on his grind, and I'm digging every minute so far.

Thoughtful rhymes that really make the listener take in what he's saying over a mellow production that doesn’t overpower the flow and allows the lyrics to shine for an engaging listen! Solid four stars.

Sidenote: "Blu ft. J. Cole" or vice versa. Can somebody please make that happen?

Yea,
Fresh off the mother fcukin
Broadcast, and Im here! fuego
N!gga, yea, hey
Uh, its happening fast
Yea, uh

I told n!ggas on the low, they ain't hear it though
Boy that man in the mirror, is a miracle
Aye wipe your face, momma told you no more tears will flow
We eating better than we was a few years ago
Send you western union on my payday
A week later its mayday
So you return the favor
We stay afloat like some sailors
Bill collectors blowing us up
They couldn't fade us
B!tch I made strait As go ahead and try to degrade us
Haters
But this ones funny
Man one year later I was on them phones collecting money
A lesson from me-everybody got a story dog
Unfortunately learned I cant do nothing for you dog
I'm trynna run the whole game like a morning jog
With hits like a porno blog
Not hoping out the shower to make 10 dollars an hour
Ain't judging, No To each is own
You pay your bills to raise your kids inside a decent home
More power to you
But a message to you
Fcuk n!ggas!
I hope your kids grow up and never want to fcuk with you
This punk n!gga knock up two h0es at the same time
And told us n!gga, they were lying, dog they ain't mine
That's cold blooded but ain't nothing new
Same old, fcuk it though
Whats up with you?
If you make it this far listening without skipping
Then I got to show love
Don't worry i'm just venting
The late night thoughts of a n!gga on a mission
And I rock my girl to sleep in missionary position
Tuck that as$ in and then I went and grab pen
And then you have it
Word flowing like magic
Its truly accurate
You n!ggas posing like some h0es up in a beauty pageant
Nobody touching me its like I got the cooties rapping
Remember when we called n!ggas African booty scratchers?
Yea that was random but man so is life
You grab your needles grab your thread and hope you sew it right
I find myself fiening for a spot to go at night
Where the liquor flowing steady and the h0es polite
The fast lane make me reminisce on slowing life
The Unabomber b!tch I'm blowing up over night
Boom!

Aye yo its happening fast
I said its happening fast
All the drama that I had to get past
Will it last
Or will it pass? Just as quick as it came
Hoes knowing my name
Dog fcuking with fame
I pray to God it wont change
But even if it dont most n!ggas look at you strange
But I guess I cant complain
Aye man its happening fast
I said its happening fast
I said its happening fast

J. Cole is the underground Drake. This guy is the saviour of today's hip-hop.

Except he can actually produce. And has a pretty dope voice sans auto-tune.
