So this is what happened. Cole rented out a house in a quiet area of North Carolina, and turned the basement to a recording studio. He needed a secluded place he could record songs. So, once in a while, his friends would come around, producers would come around, and maybe they would all chill on the porch and smoke weed and talk and all that.

Below is what his producer, Elite had to say about the the cop raid in his recent interview with COMPLEX.
