Hip-Hop star J. Cole has a lot to smile about these days. His up-coming album is gaining momentum, he is gearing up for a new tour and he just released his second track on Monday entitled, “Crooked Smile.”
Cole is joined by 90’s trio turned duo TLC for a light-hearted tune that pokes fun at his dental issues. Ironically, the song is very similar to the TLC single, “Unpretty” which also deals with issues of self-image and unrealistic concepts of beauty. Check out the lyrics below:
“Killin’ yourself to find a man that’ll kill for you/ You wake up, put make up on/ Stare in the mirror/ But it’s clear that you can’t face what’s wrong/ No need to fix what God already put his paintbrush on,” he raps.

You can catch J. Cole on his 10-city Dollar & A Dream Tour when it opens June 11 in Miami. His album, Born Sinner drops June 18th. What do you think about the collab between J. Cole and TLC?
