J. Cole released the visual for his song “Legacy” as part of a recent vlog chronicling his trunk sale stops.

The video starts at two minutes, 50 seconds and finds Cole rapping in front of a convertible before getting in for a drive.

The vlog itself finds Cole interacting with fans in Nashville, giving them handshakes, signing CDs and having an in-depth conversation about his discography with a longtime supporter.

In the clip, he agrees with the fan’s theory that he was “completing the stories and all the chapters” of his life that he wanted to tell in The Fall-Off.

According to Cole, his albums The Come Up, The Warm Up, Friday Night Lights, Cole World:The Sideline Story, Born Sinner and Forest Hills Drive show the progression of his life.

K.O.D., 4 Your Eyez Only, The Off-Season and Might Delete Later, on the other hand, were just “side quests” and “lyrical exercise.” He explains, “It’s me practicing to get to The Fall-Off, which is the continuation of the J. Cole story — Jermaine’s life story in the form of this J. Cole character.”

While Cole feels there’s “nothing else to say as Jermaine via J. Cole,” he notes he may still work on some music. “Ima rap probably, I’ll hop on a song probably, I might even f*** around if I get inspired enough, I may do an album,” Cole says. “But I don’t care to continue that story.”

Cole kicks off his Fall-Off world tour on July 11 in Charlotte, North Carolina.

Backstreet Boys’ pre-show rituals have always included praying, but their prayers ahead of performances at Sphere Las Vegas are a bit different than in the past.

“We pray that we don’t fall, we pray we don’t break an ankle, we get the lyrics, pray we don’t pop [an] Achilles [tendon],” Nick Carter tells People.

To avoid that, the group also indulges in another pre-show ritual they haven’t done before.

“For a long stretch there, I would look at all of us in the dressing room, and maybe one of us might be stretching, but for the most part, we weren’t,” AJ McLean tells People. “Now I’m pretty sure we’re all stretching before a show, before vocal warmups. About 90% of the show is full-out dancing. So we gotta be as limber as we can be.”

There is one thing that hasn’t changed. “We’ve always had a circle up,” AJ adds. “No matter what, us five circle up, that’s something we do unified.”

Backstreet recently announced that they’ll be returning to Sphere in July for more performances of their Into The Millennium residency.
