After keeping fans waiting, J. Cole has finally revealed the title and release date for his debut album.
Cole World: The Sideline Story will be released on September 27 via Roc Nation/Sony Music. The North Carolina rapper made the announcement on Twitter. HHUCIT has confirmed the title and release date with his label rep.
The title continues the basketball theme found on his popular mixtapes The Warm Up and Friday Night Lights.
The first single “Work Out,” which borrows from Kanye West’s “New Workout Plan” and Paula Abdul’s “Straight Up,” was released last week, while the album is set to feature production from No I.D., Danjahandz, and Brian Kidd, along with a collaboration with Jay-Z.
Cole hopes to drop another mixtape ahead of the project’s release and sees Grammys in the future.
“I’m tryna win that Grammy, tryna pull some Lauryn Hill shit,” he previously said.
