J. Cole likes to keep a low profile, even though he’s one of the biggest music stars in the world right now. He also likes to do a lot of interaction with all kinds of members of the community, whether it’s victims of police brutality or folks from struggling projects.
His latest visit was the San Quentin State Prison north of San Francisco recently where the rapper spent a day interacting with the inmates. Opened in July 1852, it is the oldest prison in California. Cole’s longtime manager Ibrahim ‘Ib’ Hamad uploaded a few photos from the visit on his Instagram, calling it a “life changing experience.”
“We got the opportunity to spend the day at San Quentin State Prison talking and meeting inmates who will never see the outside again. That experience was a life changing experience and wish I had the ability to put that in a caption but that wouldn’t be doing it justice,” wrote Ib on his caption. Take a look at some more photos from the visit below.
