On the other hand, J.Cole delivered a riveting set, squeezing every drop of energy from the packed house of 40,000 people at Raleigh’s Dorothea Dix Park despite coming 30 minutes.

In the spirit of paying homage back to his hardcore fan-base, Cole continued blazing through his archive, this time, delving into his 2010 mixtape, Friday Night Lights.

Though the project is nine years old, Cole tapped back to his younger self and powered through the three-minute freestyle with vigor. Elated by his song choice, fans rapped alongside Cole, some with their eyes closed, in hopes of recapturing the vibes of 2010.
