Rapper to allow single mums to live in his childhood home rent-free

The hit rapper reveals a radical plan to help single mums who have accommodation problems.

J. Cole is set to embark on a charitable cause. The Roc-Nation rapper plans to allow single mums with more than two kids live in his childhood home, rent-free.

The plan is to allow a single mum and her kids stay in the house for two years without paying any rent. After two years, another family will move in.

"My goal is to have that be a haven for families" said the rapper on interview released on Tuesday, January 27, 2015.

"So every two years, a new family will come in. They'll 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 [are] 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" spoke J. Cole on the idea.
