J.Cole’s “Neighbors” is from an actual incident that took place at a house in North Carolina that he rented for his Dreamville artists. The neighbors believed that the home was being used to sell drugs and called the authorities. The footage of the SWAT team going through the home, Â knocking down the doors and later dismantling the security cameras is used as the video for the song.
4 Your Eyez Only is Cole’s HBO documentary that follows him around the United States talking with various people about their everyday struggles. J.Cole and Scott Lazar directed the film that is the companion piece to Cole’s fourth studio album. Cole made sure to post the documentary online because he knows that not all of his fans have an HBO subscription. Cole will co-headline the Made In America Festival this year with founder Jay-Z.
