“Last Call” is J. Cole’s triumphant track celebrating his signing to Jay-Z’s Roc Nation. Cole tells his story of how he made it to New York and got noticed while flexing the rhyming skills that made him the first signee of Roc Nation. At the end of the song, he uses a basketball analogy, which mirrors the theming of this mixtape, The Warm Up. This song interpolates “Last Call” by Kanye West as both songs tell the story about the respective artists' early careers.
