Some fans on Wednesday received packages containing a physical copy of the set, titled Forest Hills Drive: Live, the unexpected set includes 13 tracks the rapper recorded live during his show last year in Fayetteville, N.C., which was documented earlier this month in the HBO special Forest Hills Drive: Homecoming.

Although most of the songs are from Cole's 2014 standout, 2014 Forest Hills Drive, the live set also includes a medley of previous cuts "Lights Please," "In The Morning" and "Nobody’s Perfect."
