J. Cole Announces New Album “K.O.D.” Dropping This Friday

 

Earlier in the day, J. Cole changed his avis on Twitter and Instagram which led people to believe that either he’d once again been hacked, or new music was coming. A few hours later, he told people to line up at a venue in New York and that things were going to be on a first come, first serve basis, a little like his Dollar & A Dream shows – but no-one really knew what he was going to perform.

The event just ended and it turns out that it was a listening session for his brand new album which is titled K.O.D.! B. Dot from RapRadar points out that this means three things: Kids On Drugs, King Overdose and Kill Our Demons. A theme in the album seems to be medication, explaining the purple header and avatars on social media.
