(CNN) Chance the Rapper met with Illinois Gov. Bruce Rauner Friday to discuss local education issues and his concerns over recent cuts to public school funding.

"He gave me a lot of vague answers, so we'll see what happens," the Chicago rapper said while talking to reporters after the meeting. "He has my personal number. He told me that in 48 hours, you know, Springfield is in session next week."
