J. Cole Vinyl Records

J. Cole has built one of the most consistent catalogues in modern hip-hop largely on his own production work. Across the Dreamville era from Cole World: The Sideline Story through KOD and The Off-Season, his records pair confessional, narrative lyricism with mostly-self-produced beats that pull from soul samples, gospel, and live instrumentation.

The vinyl pressings have grown popular among collectors — the limited-run colour variants for 2014 Forest Hills Drive in particular are increasingly hard to find.
