Released in December 2014, 2014 Forest Hills Drive marked a pivotal moment in Cole’s career, earning critical acclaim for its introspective themes and innovative production.
Featuring work from producers like Illmind, Phonix Beats, Vinylz, and Willie B, the album also began Cole’s trend of feature-less solo projects. The record debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 and later achieved triple-platinum status.
This announcement comes as Cole continues an active year in music. He recently released Inevitable, a limited audio series documenting his journey in the industry.

Alongside the series, Cole made his iconic early mixtapes—The Come Up, The Warm Up, and Friday Night Lights—available on streaming platforms for the first time.
Fans can also look forward to the return of Cole’s annual Dreamville Festival, scheduled for April 5-6, 2025, at Dorothea Dix Park in Raleigh, North Carolina. With the anniversary concert, Cole promises an unforgettable celebration of one of Hip-Hop’s most iconic albums.
