J. Cole declined a feature for Fivio Foreign’s upcoming album.
Next week, Fivio Foreign will finally drop his highly anticipated debut album “B.I.B.L.E”, which will be executive produced by Kanye West. The rapper recently unveiled the star-studded feature list for the project, which includes Coi Leray, DJ Khaled, Lil Tjay, Ne-Yo, Polo G, Lil Yachty, Queen Najia, Yung Bleu, ASAP Rocky, Quavo and more. There’s one big name who could’ve been a part of the list, but it never happened.
In an interview on the first day of the Dreamville Festival, Fivio Foreign revealed that he reached out to J. Cole for a feature, but he declined. “I f**k with his whole movement [Dreamville], so shout out J. Cole,” he said. “I did send him a song for the album, but he said he wasn’t in rapping mode.”

In the days that followed, Fivio proceeded to tease his impending album with a video teaser of a new tune with Vory, while also providing a feature list for the album on notebook paper. While Ye, Alicia Keys, and Quavo are confirmed collaborators, additional prospective guests such as KayCyy, A$AP Rocky, Polo G, Chloe Bailey, Lil Yachty, Lil Tjay, Yung Bleu, Queen Naija, and others hope to make B.I.B.L.E an unforgettable event in hip-hop this year. Fivio verified the feature list in a new video uploaded Friday night, after the shot was taken (April 1).
Earlier tonight, J. Cole kicked off the Dreamville festival in North Carolina, with a setlist of the entire label roster, along with other star guests like Lil Wayne, Jeezy, Kehlani, Wale, Lil Baby, BIA and more. This week, the label linked up with DJ Drama for a new Dreamville project “D-Day: A Gangsta Grillz Mixtape”.
