J. Cole just keeps the surprises coming. It was revealed earlier in the year that he had gotten married in secret to his longtime girlfriend by Creed Director Ryan Coogler, but it hasn't stopped there. To celebrate his 31st birthday, J. Cole just released Forest Hills Drive Live, which takes the live recordings of his album tracks from his final Homecoming concert in Fayetteville, North Carolina. The filmed concert has cameos from the likes of Jay Z and Drake.
The album includes all of the songs on 2014 Forest Hills Drive, minus the final track "Note To Self." Most of the features don't make it onto this live album, but Missy Elliot's cameo does during the "Intermission" where Cole throws it back to a medley of past hits like "Lights Please," "In the Morning" and "Nobody's Perfect."
The album feels very live with shouts from the crowd, as well as stories told by J. Cole about the album and interactions he has had with his fans.
The album is available to stream on TIDAL and fans can buy it on iTunes. Check out the complete tracklist below. Check out the trailer for his homecoming concert, produced with HBO below.
