J. Cole Celebrates 10 Years of 2014 Forest Hills Drive with Concert and Vinyl Release
℗ 2014 Cole World/Interscope Records
By: Joshua Martin
2014 Forest Hills Drive earned Cole critical acclaim for its innovative production and introspective themes, marking a pivotal moment in the rapper's career. Featuring the production skills of Illmind, Phoenix Beats, Vinylz and more, the record began Cole’s trend of dropping solo projects with no features. The album debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 and went on to achieve triple platinum status.
The anniversary concert is set to take place at the legendary Madison Square Garden on Monday, Dec. 16th. Pre-sale tickets for the show are available today via online platforms, with general admission available Wednesday, Dec. 4th. In a nod to the album’s title, Cole is reserving 2,014 tickets priced at just $1 a piece, available in person at a location to be announced the day of the show. With the anniversary concert, Cole promises an unforgettable celebration of one of Hip Hop’s most influential albums.
Cole has had an active year, recently releasing “Inevitable,” a limited audio series documenting his journey in the music industry. He also made his early iconic mixtapes, “The Come Up,” “The Warm Up,” and “Friday Night Lights,” available on streaming platforms for the first time.
In celebration of the 10 year milestone, he will also be releasing anniversary edition vinyls and CDs of Forest Hills Drive. Included are special anniversary vinyl covers and four new bonus tracks. Fans can also look forward to the return of Cole’s annual Dreamville Festival, scheduled for April 5th-6th, 2025, at Dorothea Dix Park in Raleigh, North Carolina.
