“ I’ve been writing poetry since middle school, how different can writing a song be?”
Young Cole “@officialyoungcole “ had a slightly less than conventional path to music. .Since middle school, he has been writing poetry. He was actually pretty good at, winning awards and placing 3rd in the state which landed him the opportunity to read his work on stage, little did he know that the stage we become some place he belonged.
Cole grew up in Georgia and moved to Louisiana to with his grandmother to help care for his great grandmother who was suffering from Alzheimer. It was definitely a culture shock. At the time Louisiana was number one in death by murder and even though there was a large music culture it wasn't collaborative.
Georgia has slowly been coming up and a hub for fresh new artists and music styles. This helped the music community come together in a kinda ATL against the world. Artists and producers all willing to work together to put the state on the map. LA people didn't have the same tempo or hustle and definitely not as open minded to work together on projects.
At Lafayette university Young Cole met his with which is where his musical journey began. Before she was his wife, shew was the girl he was dating getting dissed by her ex, a local coming up artist. Cole decided he wanted to teach him some respect so he came out with a response diss track.
Cole comes from a long line of gospel christian singers so it must have been in his blood because in a matter of 4 years he went from recording a single for his girl honor to traveling and performing for the summer.
