Nothing like a little mindfuck to start the week. J. Cole is touring the world with 4 Your Eyez Only at the moment, and during last night’s stop at Anaheim in California, he revealed a big secret. Believe it or not, the beat for “Neighbors” is actually “Forbidden Fruit,” the track from Born Sinner, in reverse. Cole proved it on stage by getting DJ Dummy to play it backwards and then rap the lyrics to “Neighbors.”
