Instagram began as something more about dinner pictures than beef initiation. Then it evolved into a video platform for those wanting to give a 15 second glimpse into moments. Somewhere in the middle, celebrities, including rappers, are bypassing the usual press roll for direct fan interaction. While some attempt to give a mystique about themselves, many let it all go in terms of their personal lives. And to think, it’s all from the comforts of their smartphone. Considering the amount of famous folks on the social network, it can be a lot to filter through post displaying everything from their luxurious lifestyle to studio sessions. With that in mind, HipHopDX presents a weekly feature for those looking to have a filtered look into the lives of your favorite notable humans.
This week, J Cole solidifies himself as one of Hip Hop’s richest everyman and rides the city bus in Queens. Meanwhile, Drizzy is set to drop all gold Jordans.

J. Cole Still Rides The Bus
AD LOADING...
A real one.
Caption: “J Cole was seen riding the public bus in Queens. This man is as humble and down to earth as they come. He sold over 1 million records and has well over a million dollars in his bank. But he understands our struggle from which he came. The game hasn’t changed him. There’s a lot of people who aren’t rich and wouldn’t ride public transportation. J Cole is a one of a kind artist. We may never see an artist for the people like this again. ??? *Check out the rest of my page, you’ll enjoy what you see*.”
