American rapper J.Cole has revealed that he and his wife, Melissa Heholt are expecting another child.
The two got married in 2015 already have a son together.
J.Cole, who is notoriously private about his family, shared the news in his Dreamvilleâs compilation project Revenge Of The Dreamers III on Friday.
Interestingly, the news came in the final track of the project âSacrificesâ which features Earthgang, Smino & Saba. In it J.Cole said in his rap: âI had nowhere to go, she gave me a place to stay/She gave me her heart to hold/I still got that shit to this day,
âShe ridinâ with me on the road/She ridinâ with me in the A/Hugginâ the block, hugginâ the block, okay.
âShe gave me the gift of my son, and plus we got one on the way/She gave me a family to love, for that, I can never repay, Iâm crying while writing these words/The tears, they feel good on my face.â
The compilation album which features all the other members of the Dreamville team, has been highly anticipated and was put together rather quickly in an intense 10 day session in Atlanta.
Ibrahim âIBâ Hamad who is an old friend of J.Cole and also his manager, spoke to Variety and explained the reasoning behind this course of action.
It was just a way to get all of the artists we have now together under one roof. Thatâs not how we did the last two compilations, which was just us pulling songs together. This âRevengeâ was also a platform for Cole and me to introduce some of our newer artists to the world. As we started to record it in Atlanta, it took on a life of its own, something like a family gathering a party. It started feeling like what we have now where theyâre all able to showcase who they are individually, as well being about the team. Itâs not just about our label, it is about the community of people that is Dreamville.
Congratulations to J.Cole and his wife.
