@@BrotherMalMusic yeah singing is a skill for sure but natural tone matters. Its like you can be a god at piano but you definitely sound better on a steinway than a dollar store toy keybord.
@@mattp283 nah he definitely doesnt, u can ask even a lot of none rap fans and they will at least know him but if u dont follow the rap scene close you most likely wont know who JID is tbh
It's sooooo refreshing to see Genius interviewing someone with a deeper meaning to the lyrics instead of lying and just rhyming for the sake of rhyming
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
initially i got mad that JID din't break down every single bar in the song but after a certain point i just like thinking that he is so next level that he doesn't even bother explaining why it's fire because that's just base line for him
imo i just think he left most of the gun bars alone and only explained bars that didnt portray something negative like that or that he couldnt say in a decent way
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.
I've been saying JID is up next. Cole and Kendrick are great, I hope they drop a few more bangers, but their cultural peak was a few years back. The next class of rappers circa 2025 will include JID, not sure who else but he's there
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.
Cole and Kendrick don't really have beef. Even when Cole was dissing, he still said "I love my brother" it was just friendly competition. I hope JID, Cole, and Kendrick all get on a song together. that would be awesome.
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 🤞🏼🤞🏼🔥
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

goat
the Genius himself.
all time great
How do u do this 🐐
GOAT
Jid is on another level of talented, his wordplay, flow, everything is 20/10, he killed this new album!
Aoty
He’s got the smoothest flow in the game
Play his 3 albums in order and it's so beautiful goes so well together almost like one massive album
No lies told
facts
He’s chill but you can tell he has a fun and energetic side to him
yeah, I could feel that side of him in his tiny desk concert. Super fun concert with a different vibe to his own songs.
oh yeah especially on tracks like westbrook
Man
Scorpio gang 🎃 LMAO
@@ani4389 ????
Talks in ASMR, Raps in GOAT
he and jeleel need a podcast
Basically 😊😊😊
I was not expecting the asmr 😂😂😂😂
JID whispering like he a kid trying to hide his first raps from his mom
I love JID but the way I just laughed😂😂
Now I can’t unhear what you just said smh 😂
JID is on a helluva press run to get him known to the public. Shout out King
It’s about time people showed this man love.
Right it's about time he get the exposure
I think he’s gonna get there with this album. He damn sure deserves it.
@@withoutthejuice7193 hard asf
He's next up to have that same impact Cole and Kendrick did.
I love how he gave props to Tyler most artist wouldn't admit they got inspired by someone else 💯
I assume he's talking about Juggernaut cause the chorus of Dance Now definitely feels like that
especially of someone from the same generation. most dudes would be too competitive or insecure to admit that so i respect the openness
Idk, nowadays I think a lot of artists will talk about their inspiration coming from their peers.. he mentions cole and x in the song even

@@sunflowersamurai10 he could get there if he drives to improve
With how soft JID’s speaking voice is, I don’t know why I was ever surprised to hear he could sing 😂
Having a soft speaking voice doesn’t mean you can sing well brother
@@BrotherMalMusic yeah singing is a skill for sure but natural tone matters. Its like you can be a god at piano but you definitely sound better on a steinway than a dollar store toy keybord.
@@BrotherMalMusic He's saying the opposite. He was surprised he could sing but he shouldn't have been having already heard him speak before.

JID really rappin' in lowercase in this interview
He talks like a hood Michael Jackson

Yep and it's not even close

Hope this video goes viral so JID finally gets the recognition he deserves, mans story telling is like Kendrick and the flow is unreal
Too far. Wym he's like Kendrick lmao
@@oyega1010 maybe not yet but he could definitely get there if he keeps it up and perfects his craft.
@@oyega1010 tf you talking about too far?? how long does jid have to prove himself until y'all respect him
jid has the same monthly listeners as Uzi lol, he has recognition

There is nothing wrong with rhyming just to rhyme but it does make me respect the music more when there is meaning. For example we still bumping carti
@@toku5397 speak for urself, carti can’t hang wit JID
@@hueysoprano did u read my comment properly?
@@toku5397 yea im saying y’all can keep that nonsense. JID is an actual revolutionary in the game
@@hueysoprano carti definitely has more influence than jid rn
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
JID would need a 40 minute segment to break down his songs fr fr
initially i got mad that JID din't break down every single bar in the song but after a certain point i just like thinking that he is so next level that he doesn't even bother explaining why it's fire because that's just base line for him
He's more concerned with giving light to the underlying intention than explaining a fairly obvious punch or entendre
imo i just think he left most of the gun bars alone and only explained bars that didnt portray something negative like that or that he couldnt say in a decent way
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
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.
JID finally getting that recognition
Fr
hell yeah! he earned it
I agree but I feel like he’s still too underrated
He's so soft-spoken
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...
Earthgang
Earthgang x 2
The Weeknd, redveil, and METROOOOO
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
JID is on the level of Kendrick and Cole and no one can change my mind. Pure raw talent
Maybe not yet but he can definitely get there if he keeps perfecting
in terms of talent for sho
@@remy7663yeah that's what I meant

JID is just too good. His lyrical ability and flow are unbelievable. It's crazy that more people don't know who he is. He's such a genuine person too
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.
Cole and Kendrick don't really have beef. Even when Cole was dissing, he still said "I love my brother" it was just friendly competition.
I hope JID, Cole, and Kendrick all get on a song together. that would be awesome.
JID is so fire man. Dance Now dropped and i listened to it and instantly loved it and its now #1 on my On Repeat playlist🔥🔥
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.
This song is so lyrically densed he’d need a whole series to break it down
Right he glossed over a lot of the bars n punchlines lol
jid is such an incredible lyricist
The whole album is a beautiful journey
god i love how much im seeing JID in the media lately. I love his music so much he deserves the hype.
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 🤞🏼🤞🏼🔥

Crazy lyricist man ! And his music is so enjoyable with a HUGE replay value too ! Definitely appreciated the album

Jid is one artist I’ll love to create a beat for. His cadence is smooth
he sounds so cool, chill and calm. love homies vibe.
He's voice is soo chill!!
This guy is a legend fr, he sound so calm
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

Love that you mentioned you were aspired by another artist to help with your creativity!
so happy JID getting more and more recognition
i never had a artist in my top 3 this fast in my life
Been waitiing for this omg
JID is beyond talented give it a few years and he’ll be in everyone’s top ten discussion
I loved that he got some inspiration from tyler, really cool to see rappers go out their comfort zone.
Love to his this side of JID, so calm love you brotha and your music!
The way he presents himself is how I feel like I would if I was being interviewed. I never really see rappers being quiet.
he was definitely listening to juggernaut when he was talking about tyler 😂
Jid is so talented, to have that lyrical ability is insane
JID finally getting the spotlight 🙌
he is so polite and kind
Love watching this cat grow over the years. The albums just keep getting deeper and deeper n better and better.
JID’s tiny desk concert is amazing!
JID forever story is album of the year 🔥🔥
So many of his lyrics in that song are crazy
finally someone thats more than worth it in here
Y’all been sleepin on this man for ages… glad people finally putting the respect he deserves on his name
JID is poppin off this year
I am eating up all these interviews blessed 🙌🏾
The way he uses his words are above me
JID back in da city wit it
iconic opening line
LETS GO JID!!!! TO THE TOP
To people who don’t believe lyrical rap doesn’t have a space in todays world…look at this man
The greatest. Hands down, glad to finally see him getting recognition.
The forever story is a 10/10 album...Top album of 2022🔥🔥🔥
i love your music!!
JID is so underrated!!! Mans needs more attention!
Give JID a Grammy. His flow laps people like Captain America when he said, "On your left."
The forever story..forever awesome.
hes finally getting his flowers, Love to see it
I’ve been wanting this ever since it came out!!
Glad Jid is getting the recognition he deserves man! 🖤🤟🏽
“Where the story ends an the plot begins” this thee hardest fckin bar I heard all 2022 🔥🔥🔥
JID droppin featured vids left and right since the album. Best promo tbh
love JID he deserves sm more recognition than he gets
JID definitely is one of my favorite rappers of today!
How can he be so casual when he is spitting this heat. My goodness.
JID is so damn good, man. Been really great seeing him get so much positive attention recently
Thought they might mention sampling Zusha by Yoel's Niggun. This beat with JID on it immediately made me look into the sample.
just now relieving that’s not only kenny meson on the hook ? the hell
Ive beeenn waiting for this
I can't believe it's the king of fast rap
JID and Earthgang are THE best thing to happen to rap/hip-hop in a looong time. LONG TIME.
THIS FLOW BRO! JID best in the game rn no bs
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.
Finally my man having some recognition
This guy is so smart and talented wtf.... who gon keep up with him
