Cole is currently in the middle of the first leg of his Forest Hills Drive tour that is set to last through the summer. Last night, Cole took a break from touring to sit down for an interview on PBS with Tavis Smiley to discuss a number of topics including Cole’s storytelling raps, and growing up in North Carolina. During the in-depth conversation, Cole spoke openly about how he prefers to tell stories through his raps rather than battling other artists, and that he learned to master this technique through listening to Tupac and Nas.
