WATCH: J. Cole Drops Middle Child Music Video
J. Cole’s “Middle Child” already has 45 million views on YouTube, but before today there wasn’t an actual video, just the audio. A few hours ago, however, Cole posted the official video for the song, featuring him on the hunt for rappers (and succeeding).
Perhaps the best scene from the video comes when Cole, draped in orange camo, is sitting in a cabin surrounded by mounted heads of rappers. The plaques below the heads read: “Your Favorite Rapper,” “This Could Be You,” and “Ask For a Feature.”
The original track was released on January 23rd through his label, Dreamville Records. Earlier in February, the song peaked at №2 on Billboard’s Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Chart.
Right now, the new video is in the No. 2 trending spot on YouTube.
