The Fayetteville rapper quietly dropped a four-track set of freestyles on Tuesday, calling it Birthday Blizzard ’26. There are plenty of Fayetteville references dropped in from the Terry Sanford graduate. Of course, lots of 2-6 references abound, but there's even a Hope Mills Road reference on "Golden Goose Freestyle." The surprise drop comes just days before Cole’s highly anticipated album The Fall-Off is set to arrive on February 6. Many fans see Birthday Blizzard ’26 as a warm-up — a taste of what’s to come.
