J. Cole has surprise-released a new song titled “cLOUDs,” which sees him reflect on themes such as getting older, the rise of AI and the attempted assassination of Donald Trump.
Premiered through his Algorithm blog on Thursday (February 20), the track was accompanied by a message from the Dreamville rapper which said: “Just wanted to share. made this a few days ago, then i added a second verse and was like ‘man I got a blog now, I can put whatever I want up there.’ I didn’t have a title 20 minutes ago when I decided to really put this up.

Cole added that the song was produced by DZL and Omen, with “small contributions” from himself.
