[@sharonpoffinbarger9741]

If I met j cole I would probably start crying cause j Cole is my passion the person who keeps me going and reminds me not stop just go for it

[@theillustratxr]

Sharon Poffinbarger your passion?

[@Arif32454]

THE iLLUSTRATXR yes man he clearly stated it, some people find motivation in music leading to feeling passionate about the people that keep them going

[@theillustratxr]

[@callumgee9119]

I'm about to start a Bachelor in Studio Production and (as such a big fan of hiphop, J Cole and Elite) to learn that Elite did the same thing and made amazing music with J, and then to hear J talk about how Elite's education separates him from the rest made me so much more confident in my choice. It's dope af.

I always thought Elite was a black guy.

That chef didn't wash the cilantro... Straight from the bag to the food, that's some dirty shit. Food looked good though.

[@Joela393]

I actually thought elite was black... I know I'm not the only one who thought of that... Right?

[@jaysizzlecity2]

Dr. Dre didn’t go to school for engineering or production and his sound can’t can’t be compared. What you’re saying is totally Irrelevant

[@SwaggKIddHits]

eat then smoke?? lol

[@KishanPatel1997]

wow man you haven't been a fan for that long? or maybe you just haven't listen to the warm up and friday night lights enough? or maybe you not a huge j cole fan like some of us who go online and spend hours watching interviews

[@jaysizzlecity2]

DJ battle cat did not go to school to learn production or engineering. His production and engineering will blow you out of water. What you’re saying is total irrelevancy.

[@CallMeMicahT]

I'm so happy he's a white guy.

[@Ayexsbdg]
