J. Cole Confirms He and Wife Melissa Heholt Welcomed a Second Son: 'I've Been Blessed'

In the final track, "Sacrifices," Cole dropped the secret in his closing lyrics, first rapping about his love for Heholt and then saying the couple was expecting again. "I had nowhere to go, she gave me a place to stay / She gave me her heart to hold / I still got that s— to this day," he began.

"She gave me the gift of my son / and plus we got one on the way," he continued. "She gave me a family to love, for that, I can never repay / I'm crying while writing these words, the tears, they feel good on my face."

J. Cole, whose real name is Jermaine Cole, and Heholt married in 2015. The couple did not confirm they had a first son until Cole's 2018 interview with radio DJ Angie Martinez, during which he said his purpose in life was "to be a father and a husband."

"But I feel like I've created a life where my purpose is too much placed in music," he added in the interview. "When I'm home and I come home, outside of like playing with my son, if I go three days without doing music, making a beat, writing a song … I start to feel, like, miserable."
