JID Is Again With “31”

JID is without doubt one of the few artists who really raps for the love of the game.

Each time JID decides to stake his declare as the best rapper within the sport, he may simply do it. It appears like he’s simply getting all his geese in a row—engaged on his paperwork and stacking up hits—earlier than formally making that transfer. However mark my phrases: as soon as he drops Eternally & A Day (and even his rumored joint album with Metro Boomin), individuals will begin recognizing him as primary. In the present day, JID blessed us with a brand new “31,” his first launch since his standout function on Eminem’s The Loss of life of Slim Shady album.

“31” is a pure lyrical showcase for JID, the place he flexes his intricate circulation and sharp wordplay. All through the observe, he touches on his readiness to face off towards his competitors, his newfound fame that justifies charging steep charges for options, and his sturdy connections inside the music business. Whereas informal listeners may not be drawn to his robotic supply or the beat’s gassy-ass manufacturing, longtime followers will see this observe as quintessential JID, completely aligned along with his fashion and vitality.

If JID doesn’t launch any new initiatives this yr, I’ll file my lawsuit.
