ʻAʻole hiki ke kapa ʻia ka mea mele he keiki i mālama ʻole ʻia ke ola. Ua ulu ʻo ia i loko o kahi ʻohana hānai nāna i hānai iā ia i kona wā he 2 mau makahiki.
ʻAʻole lākou i noho ma kahi noho maikaʻi a mālie, akā ma kahi e pono ai ke pale aku i ko lākou mau pono e noho ai, ma nā wahi ʻino o Oakland, Kaleponi. ʻO ʻOkakopa 15, 1981 kona lā hānau.
ʻO kahi āna i ulu ai, ʻo kona ʻāina hānau i hoʻoikaika mau i kona ʻano, pono ke kaikamahine e ikaika, e hōʻike pinepine i kona ʻano i mea e pale ai i kāna hihia.
Ke kapa nei ʻo ia iā ia iho he kanaka hana, me he mea lā ua hoʻomāʻewaʻewa ʻo ia i kāna mau hoa kamaʻilio, ʻoliʻoli a ʻakaʻaka, a me he mea lā ua hāʻawi ʻia iā ia nā mea āpau o ke ola, me ka pāʻani.

ʻO kāna ala holoʻokoʻa holoʻokoʻa i ka ʻoihana hōʻikeʻike he hakakā ia e hoʻokō i nā moeʻuhane i ke ola maoli.
Ma ke ala, ʻo ka peʻa ma kona poʻohiwi ʻākau, ma ka ʻōlelo a ka mea mele, he hōʻailona ia o ka hiki ke hoʻokō ʻia nā mea āpau inā ʻoe e hoʻoikaika. ʻO ia hoʻi, ʻo kāna mau moeʻuhane, ma ka liʻiliʻi, ua manaʻo ʻia e hoʻokō ʻia.
Ua kaena pū ʻo ia i kāna mau duets me Massy Marv, Nubian Queen, a me Tony Toni Tone ua hoʻokani lākou iā D'wayne Wiggins. ʻO kēia ka mea hoʻokahi i lilo i ke kani i ke kiʻiʻoniʻoni Me & Mrs. Jones.
Hana: hoʻokō i nā moeʻuhane
I kona mau makahiki, ua hele ke kaikamahine e lanakila i nā expanses o ka ʻoihana hōʻike home. I nā makahiki 2000 mua, ua kau inoa ʻo Cole i kahi ʻaelike me A&M.
I ka makahiki 2005, ua hoʻomaka kāna album mua ʻo The Way It Is me kēia keena, ua hiki i kāna "gula" i ka makahiki hoʻokahi, ua kūʻai aku i 500 kope. I ka makahiki e hiki mai ana, ua lilo ka album i platinum, no ka mea, ua kūʻai ʻia aku he 1 miliona kope o nā disc.
I ka makahiki 2007, ua hoʻokuʻu ʻia ka duet single Last Nigt me Diddy. ʻO kekahi hana holomua ʻo ia ka hoʻopaʻa ʻana o Let It Go me Lil Kim a me Missy Eliot. Ua manaʻo ʻia e lilo i ʻāpana o ka album a Lil' Kim.

Ua kū hou ka holomua o ka album ʻelua - kūlana 1 ma ka papa kiʻekiʻe R&B / Hip Hop Albums a me ke kūlana 2 ma nā palapala. ʻEkolu mahina ma hope mai, ʻo ia hoʻi, ma ka hopena o ka makahiki, ua hele ka album Just Like You i ka platinum a ua koho ʻia no ka Grammy Award kaulana.
I ka hāʻule ʻana o 2009, ua hoʻokuʻu ʻia ka Playa Card Right hoʻokahi, ʻo ka swallow mua mai ke kolu o ka album A Different Me, ka piha piha o ia mea i paʻi ʻia ma hope iki - i Dekemaba.
He mea waiwai ka haku mele ʻo Playa Card Right ma ka hoʻokomo ʻana i ka ʻāpana leo o Tupac Shakur i kāna hoʻopaʻa ʻana. ʻO ia ka mea i lilo i hope loa, i hana ʻia e ia ma mua koke o kona make ʻana.
ʻO ke kolu, "makamai" disc o ka mea mele
Ua hoʻomau ke kolu o ka album i ka laina o nā discs "makamai" o ka mea mele - ua lilo ia i "gula". I loko o ka hoʻokani pila o nā mea pena kiʻi o kēia wā, ua lawe ʻo ia i ke kūlana 2nd, a ma waena o nā album o nā mele mele a me nā blues a me ka hip-hop, ua lanakila ʻo ia i ka papa inoa.

Ke hoʻohālikelike ʻia me ka helu ʻehā, ua nalowale ʻo ia i kahi kūlana ʻē aʻe ma ka Billboard a hele i ka helu ʻelua ma ka papa kiʻekiʻe R&B/Hip Hop.
ʻO ke ola pilikino o ka mea mele
ʻAʻole hoʻolaha ka mea mele i kona ola pilikino ma hope o ka hōʻike ʻana i ka hōʻike ʻoiaʻiʻo televise i ke ao holoʻokoʻa i ka noho ʻana o kona ʻohana. Ua kapa ʻia ka hoʻoili ʻana ʻo Family First.
A laila ua hauʻoli ʻo ia i ka male ʻana i ka mea hoʻokani pīpeku ʻo Daniel Gibson o ka Cleveland Cavaliers. Hāpai lāua i kā lāua keiki ʻo Daniel Hiram Gibson Jr., hānau ʻia ʻo Malaki 2, 2010.
Ua paipai ka mea mele i ka pili pono a me ka maemae. Ma kāna nīnauele, ua hoʻolaha ʻo ia ʻaʻole ʻo ia e honi i kahi mea aloha ʻole, ʻoiai inā he manawa hana pono kēia, no ka laʻana, pono e pana i kahi wikiō no kahi mele.
Cole haku mele
Ma muli o ka ulu ʻana o ke kaikamahine ma kahi e pono ai ke ola i ka hakakā no ke ola ʻana, ʻaʻole hiki iā ia ke haʻalele i kēia kumuhana wela. ʻAʻole ʻo Cole wale nō ka mea hoʻokani, akā ʻo ia ka mea kākau o kāna mau hana.
ʻO Streets Is A Mothafucka kahi mele āna i haku ai a hoʻopaʻa ʻia no ka hoʻomaʻamaʻa ʻana i ka poʻe hoʻolohe i nā mea maoli o ke ola ma kēia mau wahi. He mea lapuwale kēia o nā mea lapuwale, ʻo ia hoʻi nā lāʻau lapaʻau, nā hewa a me nā hana ʻino, e hele pū ana me ka hakakā no ke ola.
ʻO ia ola i waiho i kahi ʻike ma kāna hana, paʻakikī a hoʻoikaika iā ia e hoʻoikaika e hele i kahi wā e hiki mai ana iā ia iho a kāhea aku i nā kaikamahine a me nā ʻōpio hou, e kōkua iā lākou e hele hewa i ko lākou ala ola.
ʻIke maikaʻi ʻo Cole i ka wā ʻōpiopio i ka poʻe nāwaliwali loa, pono lākou i kahi hōkū alakaʻi. ʻO ia ke ʻano o kona makemake e nānā i ka maka o ka lehulehu, a ke manaʻoʻiʻo ʻiʻo nei kāna poʻe pā ʻo ia ke ʻano.
