J. Cole's debut album Cole World: The Sideline Story drops today and you'd be a fool not to buy it in stores, even if you downloaded the leak #justsayin. This has been a busy year for Roc Nation's first signee. He has been blessing fans with unreleased music as part of his "Any Given Sunday" series, and shutting the internet down every time the tracks hit Dreamvillain. This past weekend, he dropped the visuals for "Daddy's Little Girl."
We've been paying close attention to the young Simba and we couldn't help but notice his affinity for varsity jackets.He wears them all the freeeaking time, from performances to meet and greets. We're not hating though. In honor of J. Cole week here at Complex, we've rounded up the best of his letterman-style looks. Check out our gallery of J. Cole rocking varsity jackets.
