He is originally from New Haven, CT and spent a brief part of his childhood in the Bay Area of California. Although currently unsigned, Nolan is becoming one of the south-east region's premier lyricists on the rise with his penchant for mixing fluid wordplay with metaphors and also showing ability to venture into storytelling concepts while maintaining his signature smooth delivery, no matter the subject. Influences consist of Nas, Lupe Fiasco, The Roots, Common, and many others.

Nolan cites his first rhyme as being written before 4th grade when his older brother encouraged him to try it out. He quit after that and picked the pen back up in 7th grade for a brief stint before quitting once again. In his freshman year of High School, he resumed writing lyrics after breaking his leg in an accident while playing basketball. Ever since then, J.Nolan was frequently writing songs, freestyling, and battling fellow emcees in local ciphers after school. In 2005, Nolan formed a group with his best friend Osiris The Prophet and cousin Yung B Da Producer. The trio was called Manifest. They officially stayed together until 2007 when they disbanded as solo artists in a crew known as The Manifest Movement. J.Nolan uses this imprint to release his independent mixtapes and free albums.

This was a very touching moment. This just proves that Nolan’s greatest strength is his empathy…and just generally connecting to people. I know Nolan will be a great TO for Celina.

Nolan's greatest gift has always been his empathy.

John Brad

Empathy is a very important skill in police work. Where I attend college as a criminal justice student, we are heavily trained to know how to show empathy towards others. Sympathy just doesn’t work.

Love that the writers incorporated that into the show.

Not really feeling her. She seems like she’s coming into the program, but she wants to complete it on her terms; that’s not how that works. You don’t join an organization and decide how things should be done.

Megan McKnight

@johannesjensen1127;:because second chances are a good thing to give out especially since alot of problems are fixable problems. It’s no different than Jackson freezing up to begin with and then he got better and became a good cop because Lopez helped and others helped him find a solution to his problem.

A single scene doesn't make an episode and certainly not an entire series. However, each episode is full of scene of this quality, which makes this one of favorite series .

This whole psychic/intuition thing she had going on is the dumbest thing ever to put into a cop show like this. She is a liability and has proven that on multiple occasions

Megan McKnight

1y↑2

@323houseofpain:she’s also a rookie who watched her sister being abducted when she was 9 years old it’s no different than Jackson back in Season 1 freezing up and working out his problem first in order to be a good cop because he was given time to work out his issues instead of being written up

Megan McKnight

@323houseofpain:also no different than Nolan thinking he knows everything and everyone though he was having a midlife crisis just because he was a rookie at mid 40 years old and he turned out to be a good cop part of being a good cop is letting people fix their own problems first since a lot of problems are fixable

First Ray Palmer and now Spooner Cruz. The Rookie taking in ex Legends of Tomorrow characters. Also Nora Darhk on The Rookie Feds.

Connor Haines

I’ve been noticing several actors from different shows that I’ve watched appear on here like for instance Nolan’s ex wife is Bones his fiancé is Lucy Lane, Sergeant Grey is a football agent from Lucifer, etc.

Cedric Sanchez

@Connor Haines Daniel Sousa from Agent Carter/Agents of Shield is Harper’s ex husband. Cindy Burman/Shiv from Stargirl is Nolan’s brother’s girlfriend. Desmond/Neron also from Legends was Harper’s boyfriend. The true Reverse Flash off of the Flash was also on there once. Also Kraglin off of Guardians of the Galaxy. Pops off of Luke Cage plays Simone’s dad on Rookie Feds. John Diggle has also appeared on there.

An officer that reacts quickly based solely on intuition is an officer that reacts based on bias. Plenty of cops have arrested, shot, planted evidence on innocent citizens because their intuition says they knew something that didn't actually know. Sorry but no officer wants a partner running off half cocked, knowing they'll have to back their play regardless. That's how you get fired or worse, go to jail.

zilla grilla

1y↑1

Agreed, acting on intuition is only good where there is evidence to support one's theory. Jumping onto a conclusion based on intuition is a sign of a bad cop.

Unless they only have good instincts.

@Winchester Chua 🐷👑 I think they kept as the rookie just because there are other rookies that he ends up training

Don't get me wrong she's actually pretty cute, but realistically she's a liability as a police officer in the LAPD that will eventually get Nolan (her training officer) either killed or probably demoted from a training officer, honestly I don't believe in psychics and/or intuition, but I do believe in inner gut feelings (AKA instinct) but permissions a different story right there, I would say this I would be a poor trainer, because I lack patience and tolerance, so I need a pretty good reason to offer a second chance.

Amartya Roy

2y↑1

You are allowed to make mistakes on your first day, in fact you are allowed to make mistakes during your probationary period that's why it is called "rookie mistake". You are supposed to learn from them.

Megan McKnight

@Amartya Roy exactly plus she’s a rookie her problems can be fixed with time look at Jackson he litterally froze up during like 2 gun fights and Lopez would have gotten killed but instead of writting him up she decided to have his back and help him be a good cop since his problem was easily fixable

I have to post this here because I have nowhere else to do so. It took three seasons for Lucy and Jackson to become P2s. Four seasons for Nolan because of his extension. How is Aaron a P2 after one season?! So another year has passed in The Rookieverse? Time makes no since on The Rookie. And while I’m at it, in four seasons why is John the only one who had a birthday?!

K S

1y↑1

They stretched the shit out of that first 13 months because the show is literally called "The Rookie", so they needed Nolan to be a rookie for as long as possible. Even with his extra time he becomes a P2 in literally the first 10 minutes of Episode 1 in season 4, so it was still basically 3 seasons.

Now that they are all P2's the time can move forward that much quicker.

Chloe Clarke

@K S I never thought of it that way and that makes total sense, but still! I get that he needs to be a rookie as long as possible, but they probably could’ve wrapped it at the end of season two or the every beginning of season three.

K S

1y↑1

@Chloe Clarke I agree. I think they got too attached to the title, thinking they must have some sort of "rookie plot" to make it make sense. Season 1-3 is the gang of 3, Season 4 was Tim as a rookie Sarge, and now Season 5 is Nolan as a rookie TO and also HIS rookie.

IamIKENAB

2y↑52

I'm sorry but she needed to go on probation for a week or 2.....she doesn't listen she doesn't co operate and that can get nolan killed at any moment in time. I get that shes vigilant but she also needs to pay attention and obey to higher ups

Daniel Haire

2y↑5

True. She does need to go on probation, but at the same time, an instinct for observation like that is a talent to be forged into a tool under her control.

Daniel Haire

2y↑2

That's why I agreed about probation. She does need discipline. And I agree that she reminds me of Jackson.

K S

2y↑9

@Daniel Haire Part of being a good TO is knowing when to be flexible I think.... Jackson froze during a firefight where officers got shot.... that should've been his last day "by the book", and could've easily gotten Lopez killed in the beginning. He was given the time to work through it, and became a good cop. I like that Nolan is giving this one that same chance.

0:33 is inexcusable. That is no minor transgression. The show should be cancelled. Telling your audience that "some psychics are real" is beyond disgusting. People like her mom exist, but exactly ZERO times did the psychic find a missing person. ZERO times in history.
