Although J. Cole initially announced that he would be dropping a new mixtape before the September release of Cole World: The Sideline Story he has now revealed that he will longer be releasing that mixtape.
Rather than release the full mixtape Cole will instead leak the songs that would have been featured on the mixtape in the weeks leading up to Cole World: The Sideline Story.
In an interview with Hartford, Connecticut’s HOT 93.7, Cole explained that he chose to not release the mixtape primarily because of how close the dates for the release of his mixtape and the release of his debut album would have been.
“I’m not gonna put out a mixtape,” said Cole. “I just decided this, but the music I was gonna put on the mixtape I’mma just slowly drop it. I’ll just drop it out online and they’ll find it. You know, my fans will find it how they will. I’m confident. I don’t wanna run and drop a mixtape. I don’t want people to get confused with that. I don’t want them to love it, because they’ll love it. If I put out a mixtape they’re gonna love it cause I don’t know how to put out a bad mixtape. That’s the problem. So I don’t want them to fall in love too much and them my album comes four weeks later, five weeks later. We only eight weeks out. That’s not a long time. I’ll be giving them songs in the meantime so it’s cool.”
Cole also revealed that even though we’re only weeks away from his album’s release he’s still waiting to receive a verse from Jay-Z.
“I haven’t even heard his verse. He [Jay-Z] got five days to turn that in,” Cole explained. “I don’t know if I like need to change my verse yet or not. If he tries to kill me then I’mma change my verse. Yea, I’m not going out like that. The hook is on there and everything so he’ll get it.”
Cole World: The Sideline Story will be released on September 27th.

First…never got to do that…lol…COLE WORLD

Yes!!
J cole aint one of them mixtape rappers i like that, cole world.
…other than the fact that he’s dropped several mixtapes, lol. Just fuckin’ wit u bro, I know what you mean. His mixtapes be better than niggas albums tho, real rap…
Anyone who uses terms like ”real rap” should be banned from listening to hip hop ever again. Stop confusing your mind with the reality. Real rap doesn’t exist.
Fuck -.- Come on Cole.
Jay gonna murc cole
Not at all.. Jay has been really bad lately… This isn’t ’96.
just like yeezy
naw : we been waiting 4 that jawn like once he’d tlked bout it after the recession : that was like 3 yrs lol
yea weeks away, OKAY! More like 2 months!
OMG this is getting worse than detox drama…
i must’ve missed the previous 9 years of cole world speculation, then.
Can’t wait… Finally I’m gonna hear Cole’s album soon.
J Cole for real dude, you just rap really good. But you have the same problem as Game, can’t make a song.
Thats actually super real, yo!
Just cause you know I have money in my pocket doesn’t mean I have to buy this shit you’re selling, dude.
Kendrick Lamar just called. He asked did you want to buy you shine and moment back that he took away cleanly.
This nigga is overrated. Drop the album for Christ’s sakes. We don’t want to hear Jay-Z anyway, let alone on your damn album.
Sucka nigga.
Both he and Kendrick Lamar are overrated.
No way kendrick is overrated, j. cole yeah if he keeps putting out lame songs like work out and that one with wale. He needs to step his shit up for the album.
u know damn well he gonn shit on you when does drop it and you gonn be rydin his dick omg j.cole this shit is a banger ,puss ass hip hop nigggaz theze dayz worse than hoez with they mood swingz
Dude’s like you crack me the fuck up. Talking about how J.Cole’s overrated and you won’t buy his shit and you’re STILL commenting alllllllll over this dude’s shit. Get a life you salty ass bitch.
Why do you want him to ‘drop the album for Christ’s sak’ if you don’t have an interest in listening to it?
Seems like your contradicting yourself.
yoooo if you look closly you can see a fat chick getting into a fight with a guy over fried chicken look at it here bitch is crazy fat
