When J. Cole released 4 Your Eyez Only in 2016, he revealed that he wasn’t in the right mental space to promote it properly since he had just gotten married and his baby son was on the way. But now it seems like he’s making up for lost time with the promotion of his latest album, KOD.
After breaking streaming records, hosting surprise shows in NYC and London, and announcing the first Dreamville festival, the latest development has been the announcement of the full national tour this summer and fall.
The tour is aptly named after the album and includes Young Thug on the bill. Tickets for the KOD Tour go on sale to the general public May 12 at 10 a.m. local time on Dreamville’s and Live Nation’s website. American Express Card Members and Spotify users will have access to pre-sales. Diehard fans will gain early access to ticket pre-sales on May 11 at 10 a.m. EST through the purchase of KOD bundles.

*Young Thug not performing
J Cole fans gonna be mad as hell to see that he’s touring with Young Thug, lol.
So does that mean Thugger is going to bring his lean iv?
That move contradicts EVERYTHING KOD stands for.
KING OF DUMBASS DECISIONS
Dam adding young thug just contradicted Cole’s whole career
Was hoping to see the * by my city…nope he’ll be there…Why not somebody from dreamville? It’s cool tho just give him a descent amount of time for his set so I can go get sumn to eat other than overpriced arena/stadium food.
Don’t you guys get it? Young Thug is the KOD (kid on drugs). It’s a part of Cole’s whole concept of the tour. Bunch of dumbasses. That’s why you need a high IQ to understand J Cole’s music.
Shut the fuck up….always some dummy trying make logic outta nothing. I guess you listen to Cole so you can be considered “smart” huh? You one of THOSE type cats….personally don’t give a fuck who he’s bringing cause I’m not going, but trying to insult based off your own dumb speculation? FOH
Brilliant.
Going for thugger lol
