ABOUT J.I.D
Born and raised in East Atlanta, Grammy nominated J.I.D grew up on his parents’ collection of classic funk/soul LPs, and broke onto the scene with his 2015 EP, DiCaprio. The EP saw him collaborating with hip-hop duo EARTHGANG, whom he’d previously joined on a 2014 tour. Spotted here by J. Cole, J.I.D was promptly signed to Dreamville/Interscope Records. Soon after the signing, J.I.D made his major-label debut with the widely celebrated The Never Story (2017) which was quickly followed by the critically acclaimed album DiCaprio 2 (2018). The sophomore project garnered significant press attention and earned the rapper a spot in that year's XXL's Freshmen class. J.I.D further cemented his status as an exciting rap talent with standout performances on Dreamville's Platinum-certified, Billboard #1 compilation Revenge of the Dreamers III (2019), which received GRAMMY nominations for "Best Rap Album" and "Best Rap Performance." His growing popularity led to a collaboration with Imagine Dragons on "Enemy" for Netflix's Arcane soundtrack, amassing nearly two billion streams, achieving 4x RIAA Platinum status, and earning nominations at the MTV Music Awards, AMAs, and iHeart Awards. In 2022, J.I.D released The Forever Story, a critically acclaimed album hailed as a "classic" by Clash and featured on numerous year-end lists. The album reached #12 on the Billboard Hot 200 and earned RIAA Gold certification. "Surround Sound" featuring 21 Savage and Baby Tate on the album became a viral sensation with its TikTok "Ceiling" challenge, re-entering in Billboard Hot 100 as well as topping Billboard Viral 50 and TikTok charts, eventually achieving 3x RIAA Platinum status.His dexterous raps and songwriting pen has also caught the eye of many other music peers including Doja Cat, Offset, Dua Lipa, Imagine Dragons, Freddie Gibbs and more. Humming off the success of his last project, J.I.D teased the release of his fourth studio album God Does Like Ugly (2025) at the top of the year with the single “WRK.” Following which he released a Preluxe edition of the album that featured four tracks including a monster lyrical effort “Animals” with Eminem. The EP successfully activated J.I.D's passionate fan base, who were thoroughly impressed when the complete album dropped in August. It features an impressive array of guest appearances including Clipse, Ciara, Ty Dolla $ign, Vince Staples, Jessie Reyez, Westside Gunna and more, creating a rich and diverse sonic landscape. God Does Like Ugly instantly became a timeless contribution to the year’s hip-hop releases marking another successful project from J.I.D in the pantheon of his catalog. A highly anticipated live performer, J.I.D has sold out venues globally and performed at major festivals including Coachella, Lollapalooza, and Bonnaroo. Following the new album release, he announced the "God Does Like World Tours," featuring his largest solo shows across four continents. His nimble lyricism and rapid flow have earned him a devoted fanbase, while his dedication to his craft is sportsmanlike, leaving room for him to be one of rap’s greatest in the making.
