The Off-Season
J. Cole
2021
The Off-Season is named after the common sports term, during which an athlete has a break from the regular season but is still honing their skills and improving their game.
Conceptually, The Off-Season is inspired by Cole regaining his passion for rapping and the work ethic that it took to do so between 2018 and its 2021 release. It also has a direct juxtaposition to what a basketball player would experience in their off-seasons.
