Dreamville head J. Cole and TDE’s Kendrick Lamar have hip-hop heads excited over a possible joint album coming together.

An alleged album cover for K. Dot and Cole emerged online last night (September 23).

Earlier this month, Cole’s 2014 Forest Hills Drive album reached platinum status.

Last week the album sold 2,583 copies without streams which means that it is now platinum without SPS. Congrats! Streaming is definitely going to become a huge part of music, especially with the new artist-owned TIDAL service which J. Cole is a part of amongst others. Congratulations to J. Cole and the entire Dreamville team! (HHNM)

A few months ago, Cole talked about the risk factor of releasing the album with little promotion.

“To put the album out the way I did, I had to come to grips with myself that it might flop. I knew it was my best but I didn’t know if no singles or no promotion would be a risk. I had to tell myself, ‘This album could potentially come out and sell terribly — are you gonna be okay with that? Is that worth people hearing it at one time and doing no singles?’” (“The Combat Jack Show”)

The Roc Nation stud previously reacted to his 2014 Forest Hills Drive album topping the sales chart in December.

  6. This could be big for hiphop simply because both of these artists are trying to be considered the best. Get the right producers behind it and this could be a classic.
