Cole may be the latest  hip-hop hitmaker to find his album prematurely leaking online, but he’s taking it all in stride.  Most recently speaking with VIBE, the Roc Nation rapper, whose debut album ‘Cole World: A Sideline Story’ is due in stores September 27th, is quoted saying:

“There’s been worse leaks than that so I understand it’s a part of the game, I always understood that. As long as people hear it together, it’s cool.  It’s kind of like promotion these days—if you got a good album. If you don’t have a good album—they’ll just trash you.”

Most recently spotted with our friends at  SoulCulture, Songz modestly dished on his evolution into the realm of rap by stating:

“No singer can rap better than me. I think I rap better than most rappers.”
