Background
On July 20, 2020, J. Cole released an article he wrote for The Players' Tribune, writing about goals for his forthcoming album The Fall-Off:
The fire that was once dying out has returned, and for that I'm grateful. On my career bucket list, there remain a few more items to check off before I give myself permission to enter whatever the next chapter of my life may be. However, as I approach the summit of this mountain, I still find myself staring at that other one in the distance, wondering if I can climb.[4]
On July 21, Cole announced the release of two singles in a social media post, writing "First 2 songs from The Fall Off. Dropping tomorrow night 10pm. No date for the album yet, taking my time, still finishing."[5]
