The new mix featured tweaks to the instrumental and a new verse by the rapper.“I never ever ever want for us to be apart / That’s a fear, puppeteer, pulling strings to my heart / Very serious, severely sittin’ here inside the dark / ‘Cause whenever you depart or disappear, I feel (Heart),” J.I.D raps.That track came just weeks after the release of ‘Be Who You Are (Real Magic)’, written by Grammy-winning American songwriter Jon Batiste and featuring both NewJeans and J.I.D, along with Cat Burns and Camilo.Atlanta rapper J.I.D signed with J.

NewJeans, Ivor Novello-nominated singer-songwriter Cat Burns, eclectic Atlanta-born rapper J.I.D and Latin Grammy-winning pop star, Camilo.“I am proud to partner with Coke to share a message of encouragement and humanity with the world through my music,” Batiste said of the collaboration. “This is such a non-traditional, innovative approach we’ve taken, and it felt very organic for me to just do my World Music Radio thing.“When I wrote ‘Be Who You Are (Real Magic)’ I was inspired to create an anthem that captures the Real Magic that happens when we come together as our authentic selves,” he continued.

Before launching into “Kody Blu 31,” a soulful and serious mid-album cut from his new record, at the NPR Tiny Desk office studio, JID “cut the Usher tension” in the room with a casual “watch this.” The moment was exemplary of his whole 22-minute set: The 31-year-old Atlanta rapper paced his seven songs — pulled from all corners of his five-year solo career — perfectly, offsetting the session’s darker moments with a light touch. JID kicked the show off with “Galaxy,” the dreamy, jazz-tinged opener of his third studio LP, The Forever Story, which arrived August 26 via J.

Atlanta rapper JID has revealed the tracklisting for his new The Forever Story. The album, out August 26 via Dreamville, is packed with special guests including verses from Lil Durk and Lil Wayne. Executive produced by longtime DJ and producer Christo, the album includes the singles "Dance Now" and "Surround Sound." The former features Kenny Mason, who also appears alongside JID and Wayne on "Just In Time." "Surround Sound," meanwhile, features 21 Savage and Baby Tate.
