2014 Forest Hills Drive is the third studio album by American rapper J. Cole. It was released on December 9, 2014, by ByStorm Entertainment, Columbia Records, Dreamville Records and Roc Nation.
Recording sessions took place over the whole year, while the production on the album was primarily handled by Cole himself, along with several others such as Illmind, Vinylz, Phonix Beats and Willie B. It was announced three weeks before its release and had very little marketing, with no singles or promotion taking place prior to its release. The album was supported by four singles: "Apparently", "Wet Dreamz", "No Role Modelz" and "Love Yourz".
2014 Forest Hills Drive received generally positive reviews from critics who admired its ambitious concept, production and lyrics. The album debuted at number one on the US Billboard 200, selling 353,000 copies in its first week. As of September 2015, the album has sold one million copies in the United States. The album was certified triple platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) in May 2019.
The album won Album of the Year at the 2015 BET Hip Hop Awards, and Top Rap Album at the 2015 Billboard Music Awards. It was nominated for Best Rap Album at the 2016 Grammy Awards. The single "Apparently" was nominated for Best Rap Performance at the 2016 Grammy Awards.
2014 Forest Hills Drive debuted at number one on the US Billboard 200, selling a total of 371,000 copies, with 353,000 copies consisting of whole album sales and the remaining 17,000 copies determined based on individual song sales and streaming data. This is a tracking change that was implemented by Nielsen SoundScan and Billboard in December 2014. 2014 Forest Hills Drive became the best first week sales of J. Cole's career at the time, outpacing the first week sales of his second album Born Sinner (2013), by 74,000 copies (297,000 copies). In addition to the album's sales toppling early projections by over 100,000 copies, 2014 Forest Hills Drive also broke One Direction's record for most album streams on Spotify, being streamed over 15.7 million times in its first week, compared to One Direction's 11.5 million streams. Drake later broke this record with 17.3 million streams for his mixtape If You're Reading This It's Too Late. In its second week, the album sold 135,000 more copies. Cole became one of only six rappers to reach number one with their first three full-length studio albums, others being Drake, Rick Ross, Nelly, DMX and Snoop Dogg. As of December 2016, the album has sold 1,240,000 copies in the United States. On May 23, 2019, 2014 Forest Hills Drive was certified triple platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) for combined sales, streaming and track-sale equivalents of three million units in the United States. In 2015, 2014 Forest Hills Drive was ranked as the eighth most popular album of the year on the Billboard 200.

Cole is forever in the rap-history books with this banger of a album. Get your dad to react to Nas debut-album Illmatic. It's often, if not almost always; rated as the best hiphop/rap-album of all time and according to many critics especially in later days - one of the best pieces of music in modern history. He was 19 when it flipped the rapgame on its side, including bars he wrote as young as 16. Truly a rap-poet. If you like rap, especially 90's rap with that east-coast vibe... you are going to realize the impact this album made on EVERYTHING that came after. You can literally hear Nas in so many rappers after realizing Illmatic inspired them back in 94.

I was waiting on this one for so long..

[@michaelsommer2136]

My favorite album of all time and favorite artist, seriously thank you for making this video.

[@Fade2BlackSS]

Fun fact: Alicia did a lot of the background vocals on a few of the tracks on this album. The one with Swizz was one and there's another one as well . I can't remember the name of the top of my head. It's cool how your dad could hear that.

[@therecordwavelength3170]

This channel is such a perfect way to fall back in love with albums that I may have forgotten about or haven’t appreciated for a while. I’d absolutely love to interview you guys on my podcast, Fumbles & Freestyles, some day. Keep up the good work!

[@adrivn5105]

God I wish I could experience this album again Sophomore start to the 2013-2014 year just absolutely rocked this for years and years and even now every single 2014 forest hills drive song remains in all my playlists Jcole will forever have a special spot in my heart this album saved me

[@stupidgrammer]

New to the gang, and I love the dynamic between you two. Kinda wished me and my dad had that type of relationship. much love from Sweden!

[@Vizzy.x]

I love that your Dad recognized how beautiful Coles singing is, not just his lyrics and rapping but his voice

[@ezraprzytyk]

Next one has GOT to be gkmc, it would be a perfect one to come after this

[@BanakaiGames]

I'm amazed they haven't done this. Amazing songs, amazing messages and story. And if they do it they will be finished the two most "important" Kendrick albums

[@victoriabb9463]

You guys are my favorite people at the moment

[@svntn]

This album is such a classic. Loved putting it on the speakers at work at watching the older guys vibing with the younger guys. Top 5 album of all-time for me.

[@manofthenorth6372]

This dude never knew he loved hip-hop. Shout out to Connor for converting dad to one of us😁 This is an awesome channel!

[@christofferkrogbonnesen2549]

Your dad's enthusiasm for J. Cole and how he likes the way J. Cole shows vulnerability, calls for "4 your eyez only".

[@RafaelRocha-lc8qn]

This video was awesome! I wish I had a dad to share a J Cole album with.. Shout out from Brazil

[@eliwright9714]

I genuinely enjoyed watching your dad’s reactions

[@shy2736]

This album is literally art in its purest form in my eyes. A true 11/10. I find no flaws in anything and think a whole listen through is a true experience. Also, Love Yourz is the most beautiful and heartfelt song ever made imo. It pulls my heart and I always cry listening to it.

[@JohnPaul-go9jm]

You should do Good kid Maad City some week for sure.

They def saving that one for a rainy day

i'm so glad i relistened to this album today it's grown on me so much love yall

[@Housecallpodcast]

This was my first J Cole experience when this album dropped, I used to live in Virginia 3 hrs away from Fayetteville early in his career everyone listened to him but me, but when this album dropped I went back and listened to everything I could find , Cole is a gem fr

[@MM-jc7uv]

This is genuinely one of the only albums I’ve heard that has no skips. There are a few tracks that aren’t as great but they’re still listenable, aside from that almost every track is a classic with crazy replay value

[@CharlieA24]

Legit "To Pimp A Butterfly" is also that kind of album for sure. Front to back mesmerizing. I agree on you with 2014 FHD too. Even my least favorite track,Hello,has grown on me a bit. A classic for sure.

[@MM-jc7uv]

@@CharlieA24 TPAB is great but it’s more a concept album and it doesn’t have as much replay value tbh. Like I wouldn’t listen to a lot of the tracks of TPAB alone just to enjoy them but in the context of the album they’re crucial whereas FHD you could listen to any song and enjoy it on its own

[@broggie123]

@@MM-jc7uv yeah as a whole piece it's unreal but cannot listen to tracks individually or on shuffle

[@CharlieA24]

@@MM-jc7uv After my recent listen though the whole album,I realized that 2014 FHD is also a concept album (kind of). It pretty loose with its narrative compared to TPAB. But I get you,individual tracks off this album have crazy replay value but I feel like you start listening to TPAB,you'll end up all caught up in the album and listen all the way through. That album just pulls you in deep.

Turning the Tables is shaping up to be one of the all time great series on KZbin. Like Tiny Desk, people will be enjoying this content for generations 🔥

[@sahilbhavsar]

I love this reaction. It was so genuine and authentic💯 keep it up!

[@yubbed]

I hope you guys review more of his albums! I really dig y’all’s album reactions!

[@Camh_71]

Seeing this reaction makes me so happy and excited for your dad. The feeling I got listening to this album for the first time was purely something special….

[@ericaltenburg]

Couldn’t help smiling at certain reactions because they reminded me of how I felt when I first listened to this. Absolutely amazing reactions

[@needlessmoose8055]

There's moments I catch myself legit tearing up cause I'm smiling so hard ... it's this mixture of shared appreciation of something beautiful and remembering those feelings of discovering this album.

I’ve been waiting for this!!!! Thank youuuuu
