“Roc Nation’s J.Cole called up Shade 45 last week to speak with DJ Whoo Kid and XXL’s Vanessa Satten and Rob Markman about his budding career, love from fans, the XXL Freshmen cover feature and working with Jay-Z.

What has J.Cole learned from Jay-Z? Are white kids really more into Hip Hop music these days? How is J.Cole dealing with newfound fame? What did he learn in college about dealing with people like Whoo Kid? Has he been ghostwriting yet? Is he really related to Jay-Z? Is he deliberately trying to out-do rappers on their own tracks when he collaborates?”

Here is some footage I captured from the Jay-Z concert Friday night at Nassau Coliseum. I would advise you to go to the YAF Youtube page so you can watch the video in 480. It looks a lot better that way. I could not get a HQ camera into the Coliseum so this will have to do. The footage is a lot better than what I have seen released so far. Anyhow, I will be back to regular posting on Sunday. I am feeling under the weather. You can watch some of Young Jeezy’s performance after the jump!
