J. Cole announces Dreamville WeekendJ. Cole rolled out a list of events for his inaugural Dreamville weekend in Fayetteville, and among his school visits and parties is one pretty huge distinction.
On Thursday, the Terry Sanford High School alum will visit E.E. Smith High School, then his alma mater later in the day where March 1 will be officially declared "J. Cole Day" by city officials.
