The Fall-Off is the seventh studio album by American rapper J. Cole. Released through Cole World, Dreamville Records, and Interscope Records on February 6, 2026, it was marketed as Cole's final album. It started development in 2016 and was first publicly teased in 2018. An unspecified event c. 2024, interpreted by various publications to be the Drake–Kendrick Lamar feud, inspired Cole to expand the concept, resulting in a double album. The Fall-Off tells the story of two visits to Cole's home city of Fayetteville, North Carolina, once at age twenty-nine and again at age thirty-nine.

Cole executively produced the album with Ibrahim Hamad, T-Minus, and his team at Dreamville. The album includes production credits from the Alchemist, Beat Butcha, Boi-1da, FnZ, Omen, T-Minus, and Vinylz, among others. It features guest appearances from Burna Boy, Erykah Badu, Future, Morray, Petey Pablo, PJ, and Tems. "Who TF Iz U" was released to rhythmic radio as the lead single on February 11, 2026. Legacy was released as the second radio single on May 19, 2026. "The Fall-Off Is Inevitable" was released as a promotional single via YouTube on January 14, with "Two Six" receiving a music video upon the album's release. In Cole's home country, the album earned an estimated 280,000 album-equivalent units in its first week, debuting at number one on the Billboard 200. Metacritic characterized the album's critical reception as "generally positive".
