J. Cole has revealed the tracklist to The Fall-Off<\/em> ahead of its release this Friday (February 6).<\/p>\n

The eagerly anticipated project, which serves as the Dreamville rapp<\/a>er’s eight and final album, features 24 songs across two discs, including the previously released “The Fall-Off Is Inevitable” (which dropped on YouTube<\/a> earlier this month under the title ‘Disc 2 Track 2’).<\/p>\n

Other song titles include “Two Six,” “Legacy,” “Bombs in the Ville \/ Hit the Gas,” “Lonely at the Top” and “and the whole world is the Ville” — a nod to Cole’s hometown of Fayeteville, North Carolina.<\/p>\n

Guest features and producers remain under wraps for now, but the back cover does list J. Cole, his longtime manager Ibrahm “Ib” Hamad and multi-platinum hitmaker T-Minus as the album’s executive producers.<\/p>\n

Along with the tracklist, the back cover is adorned with posters of some of Cole’s childhood heroes including Eminem, 50 Cent, Common, RZA and Canibus, among others.<\/p>\n

The picture, along with the album’s front cover, was taken by Cole himself inside his childhood bedroom when he was a hip-hop-obsessed teen.<\/p>\n

The 40-year-old MC also shared a note providing more insight into the concept behind The Fall-Off<\/em>, which he says brings his pursuit of hip-hop stardom “full circle.”<\/p>\n

“Some of the very first verses for The Come Up<\/em> were written when I was just 19 years old,” he wrote, referencing his 2007 debut mixtape. “The title of that project, the first one that I would ever release, had a double meaning. There was the obvious one; my ambitions to ‘come up’ in the rap game<\/a>. The second was more subtle; my physical change of location to do so.<\/p>\n

“I was a delusional teenager from Fayetteville, North Carolina who had decided to leave home and ‘come up’ to New York City on a dream-chasing mission. When you listen to that project you hear a college kid with a real sharp pen, telling the world how he’s going to make it and proudly put his unknown city on the map in the process.”<\/p>\n

Cole continued: “Towards the end of The Come Up<\/em>, a couple skits tell a common story for me at that age. Me, driving back home from school on a holiday break, calling my mom to let her know I’m a few hours away, then calling my homeboys, excited to let them know I’m back in town, asking where the party at?<\/p>\n

“The Fall-Off<\/em>, a double album made with intentions to be my last, brings the concept of my first project full circle. Disc 29 tells a story of me returning to my hometown at age 29. A decade after moving to New York, accomplishing what would have seemed impossible to most, I was at a crossroads with the 3 loves of my life; my woman, my craft, and my city.<\/p>\n

“Disc 39 gives insight into my mindset during a similar trip<\/a> home, this time as a 39 year old man. Older and a little closer to peace.”<\/p>\n

“Without giving away too much more, here is the back cover of The Fall-Off<\/em>,” he added. “All pictures in this version of the album were shot by me. The front and back cover are photographs I took when I was 15. This back cover, that includes the tracklist, is a picture I took of the walls in my bedroom at the time.<\/p>\n

“Thank you to every artist and photographer that cleared these pictures. I woke up every morning as a teenager quite literally looking up to yall. When this album releases please know that you, in some deeper metaphysical type way, are in the music too.”<\/p>\n
