J. Cole’s “The Fall-Off” is the talk of the town right now. The double-disc album sparked heated debate among fans and haters alike.
When the rapper revealed the album’s tracklist, he mentioned that he created the album with the intention of it being his final album. Although there are many different opinions on the album, it is still expected to do well commercially.
HDD reports that the first-week sales of “The Fall Off” will reach approximately 2.8-30 million, including streaming sales and actual sales, but specific data has not yet been released. That should be enough to land it at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 next week.
Last night at the AMAs, Cole stated that he has no interest in making another J. Cole album, but will continue to make music in other formats.
