Originally from North Carolina, J. Cole attended New York’s St. Johns University and now has a home in the Big Apple as well. He sat down with NY Mag recently for their 21 Questions series and answered some questions about living in New York. Highlights were definitely naming Pac his favorite New Yorker and calling Donald Trump a “clown”.
Who’s your favorite New Yorker, living or dead, real or fictional?
Tupac. His attitude, energy, and passion is inspiring: He accomplished more in 25 years than most other people do in a lifetime.What do you think of Donald Trump?
I honestly think he’s a clown, to tell you the truth. Clearly a smart guy who made a lot of money, but his public image is clownish. I can’t take him seriously.What do you hate most about living in New York?
I hate that I love it so much, but it’s so expensive. I hate the fact that I know that for what I spend for my place, I could live like a king anywhere else in the world. But I love it so much that I settle.
