MTV.com Reports:

When Cole stopped by the MTV News crimson couch for "RapFix Live" on Thursday (January 3), a fan asked the rapper via Twitter if Drizzy, Nicki or Wiz's success puts pressure on him. The Warm Up MC coolly maintained that he's staying focused on his own career.

"It's motivation, it's not pressure. The reason why it's not pressure is 'cause I think I've always been blessed with an understanding that everybody's path is their own." - J. Cole

Vibe.com Reports:

Vibe: You have a big record with hip-hop’s current MVP, Wiz Khalifa, how did you guys connect?

The Game: I was just a fan, man. Me and Wiz smoked for probably four hours straight before we recorded anything. He resembles a young Snoop, and I never got to record with a young Snoop [Laughs]. I only got to record with legendary Snoop, that’s the big homie, so it was a no-brainer. Hip-hop always comes 360 degrees. The new generation will always remind you of the pioneers, and it’s a love thing. Just like B.o.B. is to Outkast. We actually did 2 others songs in our session.
