[WATCH] J. Cole Says He Smoked Cigarettes Regularly At 6 Years Old

J. Cole Drops "Procrastination (Broke)" Loosie Using Fan-Created Beat He Found on YouTube

In a revealing episode of Lead By Example with GS Warriors General Manager Bob Myers, rap wunderkind and b-ball enthusiast J. Cole told Myers he believed he had a real shot at the NBA, but a cigarette habit at the tender age of 6 made that dream in particular a little harder to reach.

Cole, a Fayetteville, NC native, revealed that by six years old, he had already developed an unhealthy habit; smoking cigarettes. “At 6 years old, I was smoking cigarettes regularly around the neighborhood,” says Cole. “I was always hanging around the older kids in the neighborhood that [my older brother, Zach] was hanging around and they were smoking. And I was young and fearless and trying to be cool.”

J. Cole Compares His 'Forest Hills Drive' Era to 'The Last Dance' Championship Run

J. Cole, and Hip-Hop as a whole, and basketball are synonymous. The Dreamville leader has etched hoops into his career the entire way, and during his last album cycle, he even played professional ball.

Taking it to another level, Cole sat down with Golden State Warriors executive Bob Myers and mentioned his 2014 Forest Hills Drive was like winning a championship for him, not winning a Grammy.

“The making of this album I got called Forest Hills Drive, and the releasing of it and the tour, that was a championship run in the way that how the Bulls look at The Last Dance,” Cole said.
