Insiders predict first-week sales are estimated between 260,000 and 300,000 album-equivalent units.
If these numbers hold, it will mark the biggest album debut of 2026 and Cole’s most successful launch since his 2018 project, KOD.
The project officially dropped on Friday, February 6, and features Future, Burna Boy, Erykah Badu, Tems, Morray, Petey Pablo, and more.
To celebrate the release, J. Cole has launched a unique “Trunk Sale Tour,” where he is selling physical CD copies of the album directly from the back of his car.
He kicked off the tour over the weekend with a massive turnout at North Carolina A&T University.
