I think talking about the song itself and what he’s trying to say makes for much better content than just explaining what a nine in his pants means
JID would need a 40 minute segment to break down his songs fr fr
JID is the definition of underated ....I mean just listening to his music,he should be getting way more attention ....plus the forever story is an amazing album....I fell in love with it from the very first listen
This entire album is literally flawless, and it’s absolutely an album of the year contender. I’m glad the game’s got JID to take care of it in the future.
EASILY one of the best albums of this year. Crazy how we got blessed with great albums from King Kendrick, JID, Denzel, Saba, Lupe, Vince, Benny...

So happy to see JID popping up everywhere at the moment. He’s amazing
I’m in love with the forever story rn. Definitely my favourite album of the year and JID has definitely grown on me a lot after it
saw jid live opening for logic along with cordae in november of 2019. i was very aware of how praised the never story and dicaprio 2 were as well, i already knew this man had it. fast forwarding only 3 years, jid drops what i think is album of the year. crazy to think.

JID one of the rawest in the game right now. Glad to see he’s finally getting the respect he deserves. His story is inspiring to a small artist like myself with dreams of one day making it out the underground. I hope someday I’ll be interviewed on Genius too 🤞🏼🤞🏼🔥
god i love how much im seeing JID in the media lately. I love his music so much he deserves the hype.

This man puts so much thought into every aspect of his songs, then backs it up with top notch delivery. Dreamville is entering a golden era right now, glad I get to listen to it
he sounds so cool, chill and calm. love homies vibe.
Hes so chill, i like him so much like artist
Ive beeenn waiting for this
He's voice is soo chill!!
Not even a hot take at this point, but I think JID is actual GOAT material
I love all the Atlanta references in this song, the whole album does this too! 🔥
I am eating up all these interviews blessed 🙌🏾
i never had a artist in my top 3 this fast in my life
I love that he shouted out and showed love to Omeretta the Great! Amazing artists from the same city
Love that you mentioned you were aspired by another artist to help with your creativity!
i met jid, hes so chill and nice. i also asked him if he would ever do a song with kendrick but with the jcole and kendrick beef atm, i dont think it will happen.
Glad jid is finally starting to get the recognition he deserves
Jid is one artist I’ll love to create a beat for. His cadence is smooth
I’ve been wanting this ever since it came out!!
Great work from Aviad and Christo on the instrumentental

JID so Hella dope. And I'm glad he's getting the recognition that he deserves 💙
To people who don’t believe lyrical rap doesn’t have a space in todays world…look at this man
JID is beyond talented give it a few years and he’ll be in everyone’s top ten discussion
The guys flow is elite, this song is amazing
he is so polite and kind
Give JID a Grammy. His flow laps people like Captain America when he said, "On your left."
so happy JID getting more and more recognition
J.I.D. is like the Isaiah Rashad of Dreamville, not quite Kendrick (J Cole) yet but he's climbing every day until Cole passes him the torch.
Jid is so talented, to have that lyrical ability is insane
LETS GO JID!!!! TO THE TOP
I loved that he got some inspiration from tyler, really cool to see rappers go out their comfort zone.
love this project
The way he presents himself is how I feel like I would if I was being interviewed. I never really see rappers being quiet.
