J Cole will replace Kendrick Lamar, who has pulled out of the Abu Dhabi F1 after race concert series because of “personal reasons”.
“Due to the circumstances beyond the promoters’ control, Lamar won’t be performing due to personal reasons, and J Cole has been lined up to join DJ Calvin Harris playing Thursday, UK-based rockers Mumford & Sons playing on Saturday with global icon Pink closing out the weekend on Sunday,” Yas Marina Circuit and Flash Entertainment said on Wednesday.
The organisers said - for the first time - they would offer one-day passes for Friday at Dh395, which provide access to Abu Dhabi hill, the F1 fanzone and the after-race show with J Cole.
This option will also provide ticket holders the opportunity to experience Thursday’s festivities, which includes the F1 Fanzone and the post-race performance by Harris.
Jermaine Lamarr Cole, or J Cole, is a platinum-listed, hip hop producer and recording artist. He was born in Germany at a US military base, but raised in North Carolina.
His first mixtape debut came in 2007 and, four years later, J Cole was nominated for his first Grammy as Best New Artist.

The language of diplomacy in 1853
Treaty of Peace in Perpetuity Agreed Upon by the Chiefs of the Arabian Coast on Behalf of Themselves, Their Heirs and Successors Under the Mediation of the Resident of the Persian Gulf, 1853
(This treaty gave the region the name “Trucial States”.)
We, whose seals are hereunto affixed, Sheikh Sultan bin Suggar, Chief of Rassool-Kheimah, Sheikh Saeed bin Tahnoon, Chief of Aboo Dhebbee, Sheikh Saeed bin Buyte, Chief of Debay, Sheikh Hamid bin Rashed, Chief of Ejman, Sheikh Abdoola bin Rashed, Chief of Umm-ool-Keiweyn, having experienced for a series of years the benefits and advantages resulting from a maritime truce contracted amongst ourselves under the mediation of the Resident in the Persian Gulf and renewed from time to time up to the present period, and being fully impressed, therefore, with a sense of evil consequence formerly arising, from the prosecution of our feuds at sea, whereby our subjects and dependants were prevented from carrying on the pearl fishery in security, and were exposed to interruption and molestation when passing on their lawful occasions, accordingly, we, as aforesaid have determined, for ourselves, our heirs and successors, to conclude together a lasting and inviolable peace from this time forth in perpetuity.
