This is the deluxe version of J. Cole’s sophomore studio album "Born Sinner".
The five bonus tracks simultaneously function as "Truly Yours 3", the final entry in Cole’s "Truly Yours" EP series.
"Truly Yours" and its sequel were released during the lead-up to "Born Sinner" and contain songs that did not make the album.
Guest verses on Cole's second studio album come from 50 Cent ("New York Times") and Kendrick Lamar ("Forbidden Fruit"), but it's the R&B touches that imbue the project with its defining soul. TLC's T-Boz and Chilli bring a summer sheen to "Crooked Smile," Miguel helps turn "Power Trip" into a melancholic lament on love, and the Dirty Projectors' Amber Coffman graces the dramatic "She Knows." .
