New York City, NY

J. Cole fans were right to be excited. After performing a surprise concert on Monday (April 16), the Dreamville founder upped the ante by announcing he’s dropping a new album titled KOD on Friday (April 20).

“New album. KOD 4/20,” he tweeted.

Rap Radar’s Brian “B.Dot” Miller, who was at the show, reports the album was recorded in just two weeks. The title, KOD, has three different meanings: Kidz On Drugz, King Overdose andKill Our Demonz.

No phones were allowed at the concert but that didn’t stop snippets of the album from leaking. Listen to a brief clip below.
