Great artists that in any other era would’ve been superstars but f***ed up and came out during a time niggas don’t even read anymore.

userThis is the most f***ed up part about rappers who try to be lyrical
Future can mumble some s*** about d**** and tricking off on girls who were born when he was in high school and let the beat and autotune do the heavy lifting and it’s performatively classic to niggas lol but JID who objectively is at least an above average rapper is “mediocre”
Future makes music that makes ur brain feel good scientifically

Suprised you disagree.
Don’t compare a modern trap rapper to a lyrical rapper 1. Just causes confusion
There’s a crowd and a way to critique both those styles of rapping. Wen you listen to future your listening for Melodies/bangers/turninUp etc. It’s still great. No need to try and knock his style of rapping. That’s still talent and it takes a lot to consistently drop great club and trap music
Just because JID has great lyrical ability and can rap well does NOT equal good music. His music is mediocre which is why he isn’t where OP thinks he should be. You know how many f***ing rappers can rap they ass off and have great technical ability? You gotta have the package brah and JID ain’t got it. There’s more better lyrical rappers who’s putting out much better music. The s*** JID is doing is nothing interesting within the style/lane of rap he is in. Again his rapping ability isn’t mediocre, his music is. We gotta stop praising niggas just cause they lyrical

eclassdude got 20M spotify monthly listeners, he just not interesting enough to talk about on a forum
probably the realest, most non-loser ass thing said in this thread

I have passively listened to JID and from what I’ve heard he’s better than mediocre. I think that overall what Op and @insertcoolnamehere Is saying is that any other time before 2018-now he woulda been way more popping off of basically being the southern continuation of Wayne > Kendrick > JID. That alone would have made him a star in like 09-2014 lol, if he has the spotlight of a Cole level artist’s co-sign. The game changed to where the Sminos and JIDs just get lost in the shuffle cuz of the shift that took place in 2016-2018 where niggas 25 and under only wanna hear a certain type of dumbed down music
I love future but any southern Nigga who has the lingo and a sense of rhythm and melody can make that type of music which is why every southeastern state has nearly hundreds of those types of rappers and most of them at least good for 1 decent song lol

Yea he woulda been bigger in 09-14 cause wat he was doing now was popular back then. Which is my point… he isn’t doing anything better than the “09-2014” niggas and he doesn’t make nearly as good music as them. He just raps extremely well. There’s no memorable songs that nigga jid don’t even have a “that” song. If you in the rap game idc wat sub genre you in you gotta know how to make GREAT MUSIC. That technical rapping s*** much appreciated but that nigga not doing nothing diffrent than the past. If y’all want him up there he better be Atleast somewhat interesting. Why play boring ass JID if I can just play old Kendrick lol
And to that last paragraph. Yea most in the south can do it which is why it’s over saturated but how many have lasted 5+ years like future and been consistent? It still takes extreme talent to maintain consistency in that fast food genre

Younger than the most popular and successful rappers then
Oct 7, 2022I always thought he was meh but his last album was genuinely great and i thought yall would've changed your view about him too but guess not

They’ve had classic mainstream albums already

jesus, If you don't separate JID from his influences by now, you aren't listening,- Oct 7, 2022·editedAkito Giwi

JID has been around for half a decade too
I think his music is just not that appealing to the casual listener
