While there hasn't been much information surrounding the release of J. Cole's next solo album, he did give fans an update on Revenge Of The Dreamers 3. The rapper revealed that he and the rest of Dreamville are currently working on finishing up the project with an April release date in mind.
"ROTD3 is being finished right now, post-production s**t," he said. "Tracking out songs, sequencing then editing, then we gotta mix. We're shooting for April."
Cole also revealed that he won't be touring in 2019 due to exhaustion from last year. However, he'll still be performing at Dreamville Fest which is also set to take place in April after being postponed due to weather conditions last year.
