"These pieces all document some important moments from the last year of my life. "To keep it real, I'm just as excited about the first four episodes as I am the Homecoming film," writes Cole. Cole's life story through a series of interviews with Cole, his friends, and his family. The series will detail the surprise rollout of 2014 Forest Hills Drive and the tours that supported the album, and it'll also tell J. HBO is going to air a new episode on HBO Now and Vimeo every Wednesday until Homecoming premieres, after which every episode will be yanked as Cole put it in a letter detailing the partnership, "after that you gotta wait for the DVD." The Vimeo versions of each installment will be free, but you'll still need an HBO subscription to watch the Homecoming finale on the 9th. The miniseries is benefiting from a rather unorthodox release strategy. (It features performances of every song from Cole's recent LP 2014 Forest Hills Drive in Fayetteville, NC, his hometown.) It turns out Homecoming is actually the final piece of a larger five-part documentary miniseries, the first episode of which premiered this afternoon on HBO Now and Vimeo. Cole and HBO were coming together for a concert film called Homecoming, one directed by Scott Lazer and set to premiere January 9th.
