=When J.Cole released his long awaited 2014 Forest Hills Drive album he invited fans to his actual childhood home in Fayetteville, N.C, for an exclusive listening party. During a recent interview wit The Combat Jack radio show, he explained that although he no longer lives in the home, he plans on allowing a single mother to live there rent free.
“What we gon’ do, we still working it out right now. Obviously it’s a detailed, fragile situation I don’t wanna play with. My goal is to have that be a haven for families. So every two years a new family will come in, they live rent-free. The idea is that it’s a single mother with multiple kids, and she’s coming from a place where all her kids is sharing a room. She might have two, three kids, they’re sharing a room. She gets to come here rent-free. I want her kids to feel how I felt when we got to the house.”
