J. Cole's new record-breaking, Drake-toppling album, KOD, is on track to be one of the best releases of the year, and on August 11 the 33-year-old rapper will bring it to Tampa Bay.
On Tuesday, J. Cole announced a date at Amalie Arena. The announcement comes nearly a year after he played Orlando's Amway Center, and the show is the second date on a 35-date tour that kicks off on August 9 in Miami.
