J. Cole is Having a ‘2014 Forest Hills Drive’ 10th Anniversary Concert

In honor of J. Cole's beloved ‘2014 Forest Hills Drive’ album, he’s making 2,014 tickets available for a dollar each for the upcoming Madison Square Garden show.

J. Cole is celebrating the upcoming 10th anniversary of his 2014 Forest Hills Drive in a big way.

The North Carolina rapper will be having a one-off show at Madison Square Garden on Dec. 16 for the album, which was originally released on Dec. 9, 2014.

Although general on-sale tickets will be available for the concert (through Cole’s Inevitable website and Ticketmaster on December 4 at 10 a.m. EST), as well as pre-sale tickets (only for Chase cardholders), 2,014 tickets will also be available to purchase for a dollar each, with Pitchfork reporting that the ticket can only be bought in person. The outlet also noted that the time and date of where those limited tickets will be sold will be revealed on the day of the show.

Along with the one-off concert, Cole shared that he’s re-releasing Forest Hills Drive through physical formats (vinyl and CD) on Inevitable, with two options available: an alternative cover version and a 10-year anniversary version. Both include four bonus tracks, although they’re different depending on which one is purchased. The vinyl releases are sold out, but the CDs are still available.

On the first episode of his Inevitable audio series, Cole shared how one of the most popular songs from Forest Hills Drive, “Wet Dreamz,” was actually a song he wrote in college.

“I wrote ‘Wet Dreamz’ to a [J] Dilla instrumental,” Cole revealed, adding that the song was made during the same era as “School Daze.”
