The fourth quarter continues heat up.

Hip-Hop force J. Cole is the latest to throw his name into the melee of major releases slated for to hit stores before the year’s end. For, the Roc Nation star has not only announced his third album, ‘2014 Forest Hills Drive’, he revealed that it’ll be hitting stores in just two weeks time.

Per Cole, the LP will land at retail on December 9th.

He introduced the project’s inspiration in a new trailer…

Interestingly, the LP – which follow’s 2013’s ‘Born Sinner’ – will arrive on the same day as Lil Wayne‘s ‘Tha Cater V’.

It’ll mark the second time Cole has deliberately scheduled his project to go head-on with another rapper. The first, last year, saw him drop ‘Born’ on the same day as Kanye West’s ‘Yeezus’. On that occasion, West bested him and he came out at #2 with  solid sales of 270,000. The set would ascend to #1 two weeks later.

Needless to say, we can’t wait to see how this plays out.

    Hope he sags more and shows more of that fat booty

  5. thatmessjuice November 17, 2014

    Is this what Rihanna will do when she releases her album?

  6. Bootylover November 17, 2014

    Other than that Who cares

    WAtch him sell more than half of what Iggy has sold in just one week.
    I’m curious to see what Lil Wayne will do b/c his fans are sooooooo fickle. He could sell over 500,000 in a week or less thna half.

    Wayne hasn’t had big radio hits this time and J Cole is a lyrical MC so this will be intersting.

    • Drinkmybussyjuice November 17, 2014

      Wayne has not had a big hit since he got outta prison tbh. He peaked at the carter 3 imo

    • Molly November 17, 2014

      B**** Iggy stays on your mind.

    • Rosie November 17, 2014

      You Bratz f*** STAY mentioning Iggy for no reason.

  8. DanYiel Teflon November 17, 2014

    J.Cole is a Rap Beast with songs that MEAN SOMETHING & I Like Hos Look here for sure!!

  9. Cinnamon Apple November 17, 2014

    Kendrick is better

    • Molly November 17, 2014

      No Kendrick is overrated IMO. J.cole slays him effortlessly.

    • I love to get ‘2 On’ November 17, 2014

      Cole doesn’t even have to try and that Kendrick always trys to impress all the time and it comes off, so sit down with old shitt.

      • YIS November 17, 2014

        I guess that’s why one has pretty much out sold the other with one album and a couple of singles,while one only has fans up here based off looks!Kendrick<J Cole! Every "TRUE" HipHop fan knows this! I swear some of you really should stick to Pop & R&B!

  10. Mark111 November 17, 2014

    Will be buying. His fist album was ok, but his last one was really good, I couldn’t even give Jay Z’s a listen, because Cole was talking about real ish. Plus he’s smart, do drops album along with BIG name rappers to make it a battle, sure he’ll sell less, but those sales will be way higher than a date by himself. Something Uggly tried to do, but Nicki ran.

    • Stephy Tha Lambily November 17, 2014

      I agree. His last album was hot. And, I don’t even really like Hip Hop. But, his tone of voice is s*** as hell. His flow & lyrics are VERY good.

  11. TheElusiveLamb November 17, 2014

    Awwww! I’m so happy to hear this. He is what I imagine my dream husband to be. He looks so cute!

  12. Sherry November 17, 2014

    How does Kendrick TRY to impress? His platinum plaque, critical acclaim and Grammy nominations say otherwise. 🙄 Anyway, I am not here to compare the two. I probably won’t be purchasing, but good luck to JCole. 😉
