Elle Varner On Enlightening Music Advice From J. Cole [Video]

Elle Varner sat down with VladTV and spoke on her frequent collaborator J. Cole, saying that they met in NYC while they were both in college. Even though he went to St. Johns and she went to NYU, they still crossed paths and knew each other well before either of them blew up. She says that she appreciates the fact that Cole encouraged her to step outside of the box musically, saying that he saw her play guitar for the first time recently and convinced her to try something new on her album, a suggestion she took to heart.
