J. Cole has been torturing his fans with the impending release of The Fall Off, the long awaited follow-up to HipHopDX’s 2018 Album of the Year KOD — but a date has yet to be announced.

Cole has been more active on social media in recent months, leading fans to believe the highly anticipated album is right around the corner. In December 2020, Cole shared an Instagram post detailing his tentative release plans.
