These days, you can find everything on the ‘Gram. From updates about your favorite artists to discovering the future of the culture in pretty much every corner of the app itself, no moment goes unnoticed in a mass media driven world. Instagram has long been a mainstay for photographers and video lovers alike, but the app also serves a very special purpose for musicians, celebrities and anyone who wants to get their voice heard and connect with each other.

This week’s edition of Instagram Flexin’ includes Trippie Redd linking up with J. Cole and Smokepurpp spending a fortune on jewelry.

Trippie Redd Meets J. Cole

Trippie Redd has previously expressed his admiration for J. Cole on several occasions, saying, “He’s hard, regardless of what you think. He is a rapper. He gives you nothing but bars and lyrical play, which is amazing.” It appears the two have finally met in person, though it’s unclear where or for what occasion, as the photo’s location was tagged as “FAR AWAY.”
