And with his entry into rap stardom under Jay-Z’s mentorship, his music soon took on a spiritual tone. The skull and bones symbol is all the rage in fashion today.Ĭole started his career by specifically targeting rap mogul Jay-Z and pressing him for a record deal. In the Skull and Bones secret society at Yale University, it is their main emblem: “The Skull and cross bones are a continual reminder that the spiritual nature obtains liberation only after the philosophical death of man’s sensuous personality.” - Albert Pike (1809 – 1891),Īscending the various degrees and occult rites in Freemasonry other esoteric societies is how the initiate moves from “mere mortal” to godhood. In the occult the skull is often explained as a symbol of passing from death to life or from ignorance to “enlightenment.” 33rd degree Freemason, Albert Pike, considered one of the greatest and most influential Freemasons of all time, wrote: The “place of the skull” is the name of the location where Jesus was crucified, what Satan and his fallen angelic army thought was their greatest victory (not knowing that Christ would rise from the dead three days later, winning salvation for all people who believe in Him). Scripture provides one of the reasons the symbol of the skull is so revered in the occult:Īnd he bearing his cross went forth into a place called the place of a skull, which is called in the Hebrew Golgotha: Where they crucified him, and two other with him, on either side one, and Jesus in the midst. Cole is also holding a skull, an occult symbol, along with wearing what rappers call a “Jesus piece” – a necklace with a pendant of a distorted image of what is supposed to be the head of Jesus, on it, is somehow supposed to convey J. The “Born Sinner” logo is the shape of the Devil’s head. “.for what fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness? and what communion hath light with darkness?” – 2 Corinthians 6:14. Here is more artwork used for Born Sinner. Cole? Satan?) with devil horns has a crown resting over his head. The artwork for Cole’s album employs symbolism that belies his own statements about the album. It’s using that as canvas to get other messages across and that’s what the album will be.” – J. I like my album themes to be metaphors because it gives me the freedom to speak about something else that’s going on in my life, so the Born Sinner thing is not about church, it’s not even about religion. “It’s not necessarily a church theme and it’s not really about church. Cole continued the trend in pop culture of using satanic and occult imagery for his new album entitled “Born Sinner.” Cole, a protégé of Jay-Z, one of the biggest promoters of occult imagery and anti-Christian lyrics in entertainment today, is part of a growing number of entertainers who seek to normalize mocking Biblical themes while promoting sinful rebellion to society. Cole says his new album cover has no spiritual meaning. If it seems a little out-of-place for a rapper to be doing cover stories for a basketball magazine, Cole made sure to legitimize that as well yesterday, it was announced that he’d signed a contract to play in the newly created Basketball Africa League as part of Rwanda’s Patriots team ahead of the release of his next album, The Off-Season, which is decidedly not the same as The Fall Off.J. I’m doing all this work to be at peace with, ‘If I never did another album, I’m cool.’”
“But I’m never going to say, ‘Oh, this is my last album.’… Because I never know how I’m going to feel two years, three years, four years down the line, 10 years down the line, but please believe, I’m doing all this work for a reason.
“I’m super comfortable with the potential of being done with this sh*t,” he tells Slam. However, in a new cover story in Slam magazine, of all places, Cole denies that he has any such plans, explaining that while he’s at peace with never making another album, he has too much love for the game to simply declare he’s done.
For one thing, lyrics, interviews, and social media posts he’s made since then have all seemed to imply plans to retire from rap once the album drops. Cole closed his 2018 album KOD with a song title “ 1985 (Intro To The Fall Off),” fans have looked forward to the album of that title with both anticipation and apprehension.
