The Forever Story
by JID
As a conceptual follow-up to his debut, 'The Forever Story' serves as a dense origin story, built on introspective and narrative-driven lyricism exploring JID's family, upbringing, and the Black experience in America. The album’s sonically diverse production blends elements of R&B, trap, and gospel, incorporating a wide array of samples and producers including Christo, Kaytranada, and James Blake. JID’s technically complex flows and vulnerable storytelling drew widespread critical acclaim, cementing the record as an ambitious and significant entry in his discography.
