“J. Cole said I was a reincarnated 2Pac sent to Africa” – Burna Boy

Grammy award-winning artist Burna Boy has said that American rapper, J. Cole described him as a reincarnated 2Pac sent to Africa.

According to Burna Boy, the American rapper J. Cole told him (Burna Boy) during a studio session that he is on the same level as the late hip-hop great 2Pac.

Speaking on the recent episode of the Elliott Wilson-hosted Rap Radar Podcast, Burna Boy said;

“I don’t really know the dynamics behind how everything happened, but somehow I end up in the studio with J. Cole and a bunch of basketball players tall as hell. Before [recording] any music, we’re all just talking about real stuff, about life and everything.

“For me, I don’t really like to have conversations with people that don’t live with me. You know, I don’t have long conversations like that. So, I found myself just going off.

“And before we start [recording], he (J. Cole] just goes, ‘Bro, this n*gga is Tupac. And then I looked around to see who he was talking about. It’s me he’s talking about. He’s like, this n*gga is like Tupac reincarnated in Africa.”
