J. Cole's Speaks About "Mr. Nice Watch" Feat. Jay Z (Video)

J. Cole's anticipated Roc Nation debut, "Cole World: The Sideline Story" will be released Sept. 27. Cole speaks on collaborating with Jay

"I knew Jay was gonna be on [that song]. I knew he was going to do that. I knew as soon as we made it [like] 'Watch Jay get on this,"Mr. Nice Watch."
Although, this wasn't the original track young Jermaine hoped Jay would lay vocals on. At the time of recording, Cole presented his mentor with another track by the name of "God's Gift. "
"Everything worked out, I'm a true believer that everything happens for a reason. Like, when he did that, it made way more sense than my song. It's a bigger record, a more universal record," he continued. "Being the hip-hop nerd that I am, I would have loved to hear Jay-Z on that ["God's Gift"] beat. But really, I'm fine on that song alone.  "Mr. Nice Watch" is expected to be released today.
