Among the American new generation rappers, the self acclaimed
Rappers Rapper seems to be getting deep into helping make others dream come
through. So he did in recent time by
giving Single Mothers Free Housing at His Childhood Home.
According to XXL
magazine, J. Cole’s 2014 Forest Hill Drive was the most successful hip-hop
album of last year. Unlike most artists of his stature, Cole decided to drop
the album with little notice and did very little press following its release.
Earlier this morning, The Combat Jack Show dropped a two-hour interview with
Cole that is incredibly personal and insightful. Cole takes listeners on a
journey that tells the story of his family’s upbringing to becoming one of the
biggest hip-hop artists in the world.

I’m a rapper’s rapper and I’m not easily impressed and when
I heard him I was instantly like, ‘This nigga’s crazy! I gotta go let him know
that he’s ill.’ So I walked up to him like, ‘Yo, my nigga, that shit was
crazy,” he continued. “This was 2010 and I just had to let him know…He had met
me at the XXL Freshman shoot with Jay Rock playing the background…From that
night we clicked and he sent me some records. He sent me these songs “Pussy And
Patron,” and “Cut You Off” and I was like, ‘Yo, I’m fuckin’ with this nigga. I
wanna sign this nigga!’ From there, I felt compelled to always give him any
jewels I could…When I was in the studio with Dre I had to tell Dre like, ‘Yo,
you ain’t never heard of Kendrick?’ And he was like, ‘Oh, Kendrick? Yeah, I’m
supposed to be meeting with him soon.’ And I was giving him the crazy co-sign
like, ‘You gotta fuck with Kendrick!’”
