J. Cole’s Truly Yours artwork.

J. Cole fans were saddened when the news broke that the rapper delayed his sophomore album, Born Sinner, until later this year. However, as such a generous artist, Cole has decided to release an EP entitled Truly Yours too keep his them content until the LP is ready to hit the shelves

Truly Yours features five songs that will not appear on Born Sinner. Cole took to his Dreamvillian blog and claimed that the lead single from the full album will debut later this week. If that doesn’t get you excited for the record, perhaps the fact that he is labelling Born Sinner as his “best work yet” will!

Read what Cole had to say about the progress of Born Sinner and his new EP below:

It’s time.

I appreciate you giving me the time I needed to grow, experiment, and find the direction for my 2nd album.. And I have.
Along the way I’ve recorded at least 4 albums worth of material, lots of it being unfinished demo versions waiting to be polished up, some of them are great songs and important stories that just won’t make the album (either they don’t fit Sonically, don’t fit Theme, or there’s just not enough space) .

Tonight, I want to give you a few of these songs because you deserve them. It’s hard as fuck for me to keep all this music from you for so long, so I know it’s been hard for you to wait. Thank you for your patience. Vibe out to these songs in their raw form, no polish.. just a lot of my soul..

The wait is over.

Truly Yours,

Born Sinner

Truly Yours

PS- 1st single coming this week. The album is hands down my best work yet. Can’t wait to share.
