Jermaine Lamarr Cole started building his audience the way most artists only talk about — methodically, without radio support and without compromise, album by album, over more than a decade. He used mixtapes before labels paid attention. He turned down collaborations that didn’t fit. He built Dreamville Records from the ground up on the same philosophy: earn your way up, and when the rooms get bigger, fill them on your own terms. By 2026, those rooms are arenas. On Monday, September 14, the 41-year-old Fayetteville, North Carolina native brings The Fall-Off Tour to Moody Center ATX for an 8:00 PM show — and if Cole is to be taken at his word, this is the last time you’ll see him headline one.
About J. Cole
The Fall-Off, released February 6, 2026, debuted at number one on the Billboard 200 with between 280,000 and 291,000 first-week units — his seventh chart-topping album on that chart. The record is structured as a double disc: Disc 29, capturing Cole at 29, when he returned to Fayetteville after a decade in New York, and Disc 39, the reflective reckoning of the man he has become. Twenty-four tracks in total, with uncredited contributions from Future, Burna Boy, Erykah Badu, and Tems woven through. Cole described it as “a double album made with intentions to be my last” — and the tour that follows operates under the same logic. The official tour site carries a single tagline: “50+ cities. 15 countries. One final ride.”
This is his first solo headline run in five years — since the Off-Season Tour in 2021 — and his first full global outing since the 4 Your Eyez Only World Tour in 2017. The Grammy-winning rapper and Dreamville Records co-founder announced the tour on February 16, 2026; tickets went on general sale four days later. The North American leg opened in Charlotte, North Carolina — Cole’s home state — with major stops at Madison Square Garden, United Center in Chicago, and Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles. Austin lands among the final North American dates before the tour moves to Europe, Australia, New Zealand, and South Africa, closing December 12 at FNB Stadium in Johannesburg.
