Fresh from his surprise performance alongside Miguel at Summer Jam yesterday, North Carolina native J. Cole dropped another new track off of his upcoming sophomore album Born Sinner. “Crooked Smile” is a fresh new track that has summer written all over it. Cole has enlisted the help of legendary group TLC on the singing side of this song, and it’s a collaboration that, in my opinion, works perfectly. From the piano riffs to the gospel style chorus that goes on in this track, it’s definitely a song that you’ll hear on every radio station this summer. As this song drops, the anticipation around Born Sinner is growing every day. The wait will finally be over June 18th, when the album hits the shelves. It’ll be interesting to see how it does against the other big releases on the same date from Kanye West and Mac Miller.
