J. Cole Reflects on Kendrick Lamar Feud & Confirms He’s Not Retiring: ‘I’m Not Using That Word at All’

Cole previously said The Fall-Off would be his final album.

J. Cole went into The Fall-Off with the intent that the 2026 album would be his last, but he’s had a change of heart following the project and its subsequent sold-out arena tour.
