The real is back.
Just two-years departed from releasing his critically-acclaimed ‘4 Your Eyez Only’ album, J. Cole unleashes his fifth studio album ‘KOD’. The album’s title holds a few different meanings being: ‘Kids On Drugs’, ‘Kill Our Demons’, and ‘King OverDosed’. One can also make a case for a fourth meaning of ‘King Of Dreamville’.
Before releasing the album, Cole shared a trailer for the album and sent out a tweet explaining the different meanings of the acronym ‘KOD’. He also left room for fans to come up with their own interpretations by listening to the album.
KOD. 3 meanings.
Kids on Drugs
King Overdosed
Kill Our DemonsThe rest of the album I leave to your interpretation.

Equipped with 12-tracks ‘KOD’ includes no features with the exception of a mysterious artist named kiLL edward, who is Cole’s alter ego. With that said for the third consecutive album Jermaine opts to go with no features, looking to complete a three-peat of his “platinum with no features” feat.
I’ve already listened to the album from front-to-back and am very happy with it. The singles that have became some of my favorite are “KOD,” “Photograph,” “The Cut Off,” “ATM,” and “1985.”
