Kendrick Lamar and J. Cole new album 2016 release date: Lamar's world tour has probably pushed it back further

The highly anticipated Kendrick Lamar and J. Cole album is drawing farther away from the grasp of excited fans as both rappers continue to reap the fruits of their growing stardom.

Lamar will be particularly busy in the months to come as the "How Much A Dollar Cost" hitmaker starts his world tour with concerts one after the other set in different cities.

The month of July will be extremely hectic for Lamar seeing that he will perform five shows in Ireland and Spain in the coming weeks and will cap off the month with a three-day show in New York City.

Lamar's next concert after that will be in Los Angeles scheduled by the end of August. The week starting Sept. 30, he will please his legion of fans in Texas.

The world tour will conclude in the first week of October, although by and large, the schedule of the world tour won't be as packed, which might give Lamar some legroom to do other projects as well.

However, there's no assurance he will use that free time on his much-awaited album with Cole. Both rappers haven't given any update on their album, or if it will happen.

Because the lack of solid details about the Lamar-Cole joint album, the hope of fans that it will ever see the light of day continue to dash.

The purported Lamar and Cole album has been in the works since 2012 and Lamar even teased that they will release it without warning.

However, it looks like Lamar and Cole have been too busy with their individual careers ever since that they can't manage to get back on it.

Lamar and Cole's fame meant a busier timetable for the two and it might have gotten tougher to meet up and just get some work done on the album because of their respective schedules are already full.

At the moment, it is unknown if the Lamar and Cole album is still on the table.
