Fans who have been eagerly awaiting the arrival of the Kendrick Lamar and J. Cole album may have to wait a bit longer, as the collaboration is not expected to drop this month.

The album has been expected for a while now, and yet, there's still more uncertainty surrounding it than actual facts.

Rumors suggest that the two have been working on the album for quite some time already, so while it may not arrive this month, there still remains hope among fans that it will eventually arrive in the future.

Still, the lack of any new concrete information regarding the album is leading some fans to speculate that the artists may be focusing on other projects instead.

Rumors have even suggested that Lamar may be looking into collaborating with other artists aside from J. Cole.

At this point, some fans have also begun to question if the eagerly anticipated collaborative effort from the two rappers may even be able to live up to the considerable amount of hype that has begun to surround it.

According to DJ Booth, one reason for why the Kendrick Lamar and J. Cole album may not be as good as fans may want it to be, should it ever arrive, is because the two artists are simply too different now when it comes to their respective styles.

The two artists have begun to feature increasingly more divergent styles in their albums, and that creative chasm could pose a problem when it comes to creating any kind of cohesive collaboration.

For some fans, however, it may be the prospect of hearing how the two artists bridge that creative difference that leads them to purchase any new collaboration from them.

More details about the possible release of the Kendrick Lamar and J. Cole album should be made available in the future.
