J. Cole has dreams of being way more than a Hip Hop superstar.
In an interview with Blurred Culture, the North Carolina artist expressed his passion for producing and his plans to create beats for other artists in the future.
“Right now, I only have time to produce for myself,” J. Cole says during the sit down with Steve Lobel. “They don’t know yet, they gon’ find out. I’m patient and I understand I had to get myself to a certain place to have the time to tap into my producing side.”
Although the Fayeteville, North Carolina artist seemed pleased that he’s been able to produce several hits for himself, the next chapter in his career involves crafting chart-topping hits for his Dreamville Records roster and other artists.

“I’m still waiting on that day to be able to absolutely embrace and Dr. Dre a whole project or Timbaland a whole project, like he did with Aaliyah,” Cole says. “That’s really what I’m looking for.”
After producing his 2013 album, Born Sinner, Cole allowed a few other producers to lend their services on 2014 Forest Hills Drive.
