On April 15, HBO debuted 4 Your Eyez Only, a documentary about J. Cole. Today, the Twitter account for the Dreamville label announced that the entire film was available to stream on YouTube. Embedded above in full, the film is co-directed by Scott Lazer and Cole himself.
Additionally, the music video for 'Neighbours,' a track from Cole's 4 Your Eyez Only album, which appears as a scene in the documentary, has been re-released on its own. It shows the real-life SWAT team raid on Cole's studio The Sheltuh, which happened during the recording sessions of 4 Your Eyez Only (Cole and his team were out of town at the time, which is why the police appear to show up empty-handed at the end of the clip).

According to 4 Your Eyez Only executive producer Elite, the police were there on a tip from a suspicious neighbor. 'There was a huge investigation, like a million-dollar investigation,' he said. 'They flew helicopters over, sent an entire SWAT team armed with weapons, broke down the door and searched the whole house.' Watch the video below.

The 48-minute documentary sees Cole travel through US locations including Baton Rouge, Atlanta and Fayetteville, while listening to local people tell their stories.

“I felt like it would be mad powerful for black people to see black people talking to each other. And you see a rapper who’s considered one of the biggest in the game, just listening,” he told The New York Times about the documentary in April.
“See how human they are, and see black men walk around with their daughters, and get a whole different perspective…If I’m listening, why can’t you listen?”
Included within the documentary are music videos for songs taken from his latest album including ‘Ville Mentality’, ‘Immortal’, ‘Change’, and ‘Neighbors’.
The dramatic footage for the latter shows real surveillance footage of a SWAT team raiding Cole’s North Carolina studio.
