J. Cole is no stranger to holding back music videos. His deeply heartfelt and personal “Lost Ones” clip didn’t see the light of day for years, and apparently he had an additional video in the stash. This time, in honor the 5-year anniversary of The Warm Up, Cole unleashes the video to a standout cut of his, “Lights Please.” The song was such a fan favorite that Cole ended up putting it on his debut, but it will forever be known as a Warm Up song. The video has been in the cut since 2008 and, according to Cole, he hadn’t even seen the final version until premiering it on RapFix. Watch the video below and read a letter from Jermaine to the fans.
