    “I wasn’t in the life space to promote that album,” he says. He’d recently married his longtime girlfriend (who he’d prefer remain anonymous), had a baby boy on the way, and was retreating from public life, committing only to things that brought him joy — family, meditation, basketball.

    If it is Booker or Harris I’ll still vote for them over Trump. But they have a better shot at winning if they move further left and be more populist and actually keep Wall Street, big pharma and corporations in check @MsGray23JCN

    “The seed for K.O.D. was planted one night in Detroit last year, at a Kendrick Lamar concert. Cole had performed a night earlier and hung out an extra day to support his longtime friend on the d---. Tour. Watching Lamar’s show, the energy that swept over the the Palace of Auburn Hills reminded him of 2014 Forest Hills Drive.

    “Kendrick’s show gave me chills because I got to see what it was like to have a hit album performed, and it set off a desire,” he says. “It was a recognition — like Oh, I’ll take that again. Like looking at a menu, I’ll have that again.”

    Cole left the show and continued touring. He had a short break at the end of the summer and planned to vacation in Italy and Tanzania. But right before he left, he was hit with a burst of unexpected creative energy. Four songs in three days. He hadn’t been that productive in months. Still, vacation was calling. “I rent a private jet,” he says. “My wife doesn’t know where we’re at until we land in Rome and she sees the Italian flag. It just feels good, bro. This is my first trip as a family man, where I have my son with me and my wife.”

    Cole probably turned down interviews with them and now they’re butthurt and don’t f--- with him anymore. It’s all about access and kissing a--- in the industry. Cole doesn’t wanna play that insider game anymore

    You're probably right. And Honestly that Pitchfork review was borderline childish, I'm surprised that it got passed the editor. You could tell they still haven't got over Cole's line about "chosen by the white man, you Pitchfork rappers" but have some integrity to write a real review where your inherent bias against him isn't so blatantly obvious smh.

    I wonder if the tour will start after the festivals, or start next year.
