8. J.Cole
Rapper J. Cole stopped smoking weed in 2011, and recorded several songs talking about his decision to put down the marijuana. In an interview with Hip Hop –N-More, Cole admitted that he was never an avid smoker, and that he only talked about weed in his music to keep some of his fans interested. He stated that he went through a smoking phase near the end of college, but it wasn’t a phase he was particularly interested in prolonging. Things like this make J.Cole even more appealing to some of his fans, since the rapper also talks about respecting women in many of his songs. The rapper even purchased his childhood home, where he allows young mothers to live rent-free until they get on their feet.
