\n\tNearly eight years after J. Cole<\/a> introduced The Fall-Off<\/a>\u2018s intro with KOD\u2018s \u201c1985\u201d closer in 2018, the Dreamville rapper\u2019s final album has arrived.<\/p>\n

\n\tThe Fall-Off hit streaming services on Friday (Feb. 6), tying a bow on the North Carolina icon\u2019s decorated career. The project is a double album (Disc 29 and Disc 39), which boasts 11 tracks plus a bonus on each, making 24 in total.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cThe Fall-Off, a double album made with intentions to be my last, brings the concept of my first project full circle. Disc 29 tells a story of me returning to my hometown at age 29,\u201d he wrote when revealing the album\u2019s tracklist <\/a>on Instagram Wednesday (Feb. 4).<\/p>\n

\n\tCole continued: \u201cA decade after moving to New York, accomplishing what would have seemed impossible to most, I was at a crossroads with the 3 loves of my life; my woman, my craft, and my city. Disc 39 gives insight into my mindset during a similar trip home, this time as a 39-year-old man. Older and a little closer to peace.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tWhen The Fall-Off was just hours away, the North Carolina native intensified hype surrounding the project with a trailer on Thursday (Feb. 6), which found Cole back in the makeshift studio of his childhood home that ignited his love for rap. The clip was soundtracked by a speech from English mathematician Andrew Wiles, <\/a>and how he found beauty in the suffering through his labor of love.<\/p>\n

\n\tJ. Cole announced the album officially in January and released his\u00a0\u201cDisc 2 Track 2\u2033<\/a> single, which saw him cleverly rap about his life\u2019s story in reverse.<\/p>\n

\n\tCole rang in his 41st birthday on Jan. 28 with a surprise, as he dropped the\u00a0Birthday Blizzard \u201926<\/a>\u00a0EP,\u00a0<\/a>which packaged four hard-hitting freestyles that were hosted by DJ Clue.<\/p>\n

\n\tThere\u2019s been plenty of pump-fake retirements throughout rap history, but Cole is intent on The Fall-Off being his goodbye album. If this is indeed the finish line, what a ride it\u2019s been. <\/p>\n
