J Cole was the special guest at last night’s (May 16th) Ari Lennox show.
The R&B goddess is in town, completing the European leg of her tour. Playing a long-since sold out show at London’s eventim Apollo, she dazzled with the dexterity of her vocal, and the vivacity of her soulful songwriting.
There was a special guest for fans, too, with J Cole surprising just about everyone in the venue with his guest appearance. There were no social media teasers for this one, with the North Carolina rapper leaving the crowd breathless.
A few social media clips have been doing the rounds, and they give a flavour of what went down. The scream from the crowd? Priceless.

The two performed ‘Shea Butter Baby’ together, leaving the audience speechless. Well, not quite speechless –
When J Cole came out at the Ari Lennox concert, some French guy was behind us shouting "CHEZ COL! SACRE BLEU!"
