I love JID on his conscious shit
Yeah I wish he did that more on DiCaprio 2. That album felt more like a mixtape to me.
@@Facts-yk8cw Considering Dicaprio 1 was a mixtape and JID said that he was just showing off his ability to rap.... I think it did what it did.
@@michealhaines hes just appreciating good music
This shit hardddd
Me too
Can’t wait for the album
Hey highlight heaven
yess
@@chiefbeef1171 are you the guy from B/R
Facts
Same 😭
Interesting as JID goes more conscious he focuses more on a ‘typical’ flow with clear pronunciation. This is clearly a song he wanted people to listen to and understand
Yeah he's well aware of people getting caught up in his flow
When you signed with j cole people expect great things from you
Yall dont understand this mans depth.
Bruh bars.
Yeah people get swept up in the flow but everyone know jids lyrical. Put this story on paper and you know what im saying
This the struggle.
@@owenwilson4427 explain
Just found out about JID, which other of his tracks are like this one?
JID: ‘You got all the same tools that the greats have had, 2 eyes, 2 ears’
Fetty wap: 😳
Dont forget later he said maybe lesser than that
😂 bro
Man Fetty Wap don't deserve mention anywhere near JID. That's an insult!

Uh no neither George W Carver's (Tuskegee scientists) & my dads Favorite Poem, "Equipment" "EQUIPMENT" by Edgar A. Guest was Dr. Carver's favorite poem; he can be heard reciting it at an audio station at the George Washington Carver Museum. Equipment
Figure it out for yourself, my lad,
You've all that the greatest of men have had,
Two arms, two hands, two legs, two eyes,
And a brain to use if you would be wise.
With this equipment they all began,
So start for the top and say "I can."
Look them over, the wise and great,
They take their food from a common plate
And similar knives and forks they use,
With similar laces they tie their shoes,
The world considers them brave and smart.
But you've all they had when they made their start.
You can triumph and come to skill,
You can be great if only you will,
You're well equipped for what fight you choose,
You have legs and arms and a brain to use,
And the man who has risen, great deeds to do
Began his life with no more than you.
You are the handicap you must face,
You are the one who must choose your place,
You must say where you want to go.
How much you will study the truth to know,
God has equipped you for life, But He
Lets you decide what you want to be.
Courage must come from the soul within,
The man must furnish the will to win,
So figure it out for yourself, my lad,
You were born with all that the great have had,
With your equipment they all began.
Get hold of yourself, and say: "I can."
"nigga ran for a million yards you still 40 acres short" WHEW
the depth of this alone
I don't get it💀
@@theartyonko after the Civil War, Abraham Lincoln proposed reparations for the African Americans that were recently freed. It consisted of 40 acres of land and a mule. These reparations never came to fruition because Lincoln was assassinated and replaced with a KKK apologist known as Andrew Johnson. So when he says 40 acres short, he speaks of the land that African Americans never received.
What does this even mean bro
not 40 ounces and a pitbull, bullshit | kendrick reference ;)

do u know the song playing in 1:05?
The way I feel about JID right now is the same way I felt listening to Kendrick back in 2011 when I was in college. The future of conscious rap is in his hands.
Truly
J Cole said Bas was up next. I hate to say it, but I personally feel like the better of the two is JID and have felt that way for a long time. I think JID just has a women problem, that's it.
@@TheVshell24 “JID is the closest thing to me” - J cole a couple months ago.
We good then
Him and Jordan bryant
I hope his next album is on some “To Pimp a Butterfly” shit. This song is just fire.
forreal dawg we need more albums like that
that would be hella fire.
that would set him has the best 2020 exclusive rapper right of the bat, as it did to k.
2020's**
To pimp a butterfly was not all that good album but k dot made better big Sean and cole had better 3rd studio albums
I'll one day play your rap to my kids once they're all grown up.
Ima play it to them when they are young so once they get older they will realize what the songs I showed them actually meant

When things were at their very worst:
2 Suns, Cross in the sky, 2 comets will collide = don`t be afraid - repent, accept Lord`s Hand of Mercy.
The first sign - the Earth will spin faster.
The second sign concerns the sun, which will loom larger, brighter and begin to spin.
Scientists will say it was a global illusion.
Beaware - Jesus will never walk in flesh again.
After WW3 - rise of the “ man of peace“ from the East = Antichrist - the most powerful, popular, charismatic and influential leader of all time. Many miracles will be attributed to him. He will imitate Jesus in every conceivable way.
Don`t trust „pope“ Francis = the False Prophet
- will seem to rise from the dead
- will unite all Christian Churches and all Religions as one.
One World Religion = the seat of the Antichrist.
Benedict XVI is the last true pope - will be accused of a crime of which he is totally innocent.
- banking collapse was deliberately masterminded by the Antichrist
- Antichrist will step in and create a false peace in the state of Israel by joining them with palestine in an unlikely alliance.
- „He will recite extracts from My Teachings, which he will passionately proclaim from every secular stage in the world, until people sit up and take notice of him.“

Ikr? He GOAT
wow... pen game crazy
Way way crazy
But Cole way better
@@kingphantom884 where were we talking about cole? Stop comparing all the time
To say “way better” is an absolute lie. JID is 100% a better lyricist than Cole, Cole is a better storyteller and songwriter tho
@@kingphantom884 Cole been rapping way longer and I’d say JID halfway there already
Cole wasnt cappin when he said "closest thing to me is J.I.D"
@JTR Hockey Productions I take that as you mean musically which is possible and being that cole is the guy he is he'd look at it as an achievement to have signed someone that ambitious. Regardless, he'll never feel personally that he surpassed cole ever because that man gave him a platform to further become even able to surpass cole. So I know what you mean and on a technical skill level yeah j.i.d is up there. But like Cole said years prior he wanted to sign Kendrick. J.i.d is in essence his second shot at that. Cole ain't thinking bout rapping in the same mind frame as he was when he was little Jermaine. He's going the same route his mentor showed him. Bigger business. Larger bridges. I'm excited to see how J.I.D defines himself moving forward though
@JTR Hockey Productions your right because kendrick never would have the same acclaim he has right now and he knew that. I always look at it like a basketball player playing for a team full of stars or choosing to do it dolo and become the star. Now of course kendrick had tde and black hippy and such but his star had more room to shine under punch and top who are the bosses not rappers also acting as bosses. That's actually the reason why the worst two people to sign to are drake and kanye. Especially drake superficially not because you wont eat and not because he doesnt take care of his team because his shadow is too gargantuan. Even without doing anything his popularity turns anyone around him into an afterthought and that's tough on any artist. But your right kendrick saw himself currently back then, so now hes afforded this position of being Cole's peer and competition as well Drake's peer and competition.
@JTR Hockey Productions You forgot about Cordae, who will be featured on JID's album. Kendrick is too talented to be signed to Cole in the first place, with everything he has achieved thus far into his career.
@JTR Hockey Productions man I LOVE jid and I think he's one of the most intriguing rappers out there, but don't do my boy Cole like that man lol. He's one of the greats of this era, with his legacy still building. He's gonna drop this year and we have all the reasons to assume it's gonna be one of his best, of not the best work he's ever released. All the power to Dreamville tho, and ofcourse Kdot as well
@@brayden141 jid no where near cole in my opinion. Not yet.
"Fuckin' on this lil bit-Queen i mean"
See now this....this is change this is substance that was beautiful what JID did there
It's even deeper, when you think about how the song he did with Rapsody, "Iman", had her calling him out when he rapped, "Behind every great man is a bad bit**, handlin' sh*t
". She, taking, a page from Queen Latifah said, "'Preciate your elegance JID, but bro, love, tell me, who the fu** you callin' a bit**?".
How that all ties in to his correction of bit** to Queen here, is just so fire. This is what I love about hip hop. Proper lyricism.
@@ChromeHelmit do yall think its ok to use the word bitch
I agree, but that was not the deepest line. That was surface level stuff, what about the part where he talked about people in Alabama giving black people syphilis and not treating them?
@@Bean-Time yeah I understood that part and and the whole song in general but that was just first listen right after I heard the line I wrote this comment.
@@skizzler1232 I agree with you man, when I heard that I thought the same thing. It goes with the theme of song perfectly, and then when you consider what @chromeHelmit also wrote, it's even better.

“You can shoot a million J’s and probably never be Jordan”.
Damn. This is why it’s important to be yourself and not be someone else you’re not. There is a *HUGE* difference between being influenced and being taught. JID is a poet that can articulate flows and rhythms to make it sound pleasing, but still drop reality to the story.
I can’t wait for the album.

This is mad deep, sadly alot of people wont even take the time to research and understand how deep some of the references and metaphors really are. I hope that J.I.D. gets all the recognition he deserves for how much of an intellectual he is.
The way he tied the NCAA to the Tuskegee Experiments was brilliant
Bro I can’t believe it he’s actually rapping about the historic story behind my college Tuskegee university!!! I recognized every single place in the video!
Unfortunately not in the best of ways. Tuskegee was where arguably the worst ever human experiment was held. It was done against black men and was honestly despicable
My son just put me on
@Ryan Roberts Big Head you are correct it was the worst thing ever and that experiment is still having effects on my people to this day!
Injecting people with a placebo vaccine is pretty messed up
I go to skegee too tuff !
"Fuckin on this pretty little bit- Queen I mean" that's like all of Dreamville wrapped in a bar 😂
😂
Lol
Its cause rhapsody checked him on a track they did together
Nah that was all part of the scheme for the following song after Iman
But JID realizes he should still watch what he refers to our beautiful Women as.
Christo needs more recognition dude is a straight beast with his production.
This is Cristo too?? Omfg this man can’t miss. Perfect compliment to JID.
“Cresco” lol
I just taught my students about the Tuskegee Syphilis tragedy (I can't call it a study). I like hearing history being brought up on this platform. Thank you, keep the history of our people in the current.
What happened in Tuskegee is no different than what Nazis did to Jewish people during the Holocaust. The difference is Germany reconciled with the crimes they committed the United States not so much.
I’m happy that it’s being taught in your classes, I grew up in Alabama and it took me getting a college education to learn about these atrocities. Kids should be learning about this stuff in middle school and high school but instead our education system tends to ignore this part of history.
@@kylechandler9711 I teach High School Science, and yes, this needs to be taught early on.
@@kylechandler9711 I just learned about this in my bioethics course dual enrollment. Most of my high school peers do not know about this and likely won't until their later lives. Yet, the atrocities of this study have lasting effects of outstanding proportions. We definitely need earlier exposure to these types of experiments instead of acting like the Nazis and other nations were the only ones able to conduct disastrous human experiments.
*“Elbow rubs and handshakes from hands that tied ropes on necks in red states”* - JID’s ability to effortlessly create such imagery and paint a picture while diving into the depths of a subject is almost second to none. He was made for this. Can’t wait for the album
He was most definitely made for this.
Built different
Yea man but the depth of that bar is so much more than meets the eye. It's tough when you realize the scope, and reality of the situation. Enough to make a sane man go off the rails.
J.I.D a special one I'm looking for good things outta him and earthgang. I'm also waiting for kendrick to drop 😴
@@dimmak2089 i think 2020's events made kendrick start a new project because we saw how much worse everything was then we thought.
Or at least he gone back to certain songs and tweaked them idk.
@@geor349 I mean a lot of Black people been knew it was like this, it’s just simply 2020 made it so other races couldn’t really ignore it anymore like they always have. Kendrick album tpab covered the subject of being black in America from start to finish
JID getting the recognition he deserves but not as much as he deserves. Real ones already here this early. He never misses
JID’s ability to make such a beautiful creation from such a dark and horrible part of history is mesmerising. He has been my favourite for the past 4 years and it’s not changing anytime soon. Love you lil jiddy x

Thats Right!
your podcast with jid is how i got put on to him dude and that version of never is still my favourite!
"Nigga ran for a million yards you still 40 acres short." Damn
In reference to the promise that if you fought in the civil war as a black man you would be given 40 acres and a mule. A promise later taken away by president Andrew Johnson(slave owner). Basically saying you can get jordan rich, but not wall street hedge fund manager rich, or land owner rich because of the unfair advantage.
That that line hit crazy hard
"queen i mean" dang that was smooth ahah JID manages to capture the theme even in the smallest things its so amazing

Many props to JID for introducing the inhumanity of the Tuskegee study to the new generation. The injustice from that study still resonates big time in African American distrust of today’s healthcare system. Bless up for keeping this present and prevalent, and for holding us to higher standards as human beings. One love.
I knew after I heardThe Never Story that J.I.D was going to fuck the game up and go far. Boy was I right, this dude just doesn't miss.
"still 40 acres short''
legendary.
honestly just a beautiful track.
Someone r explain this to me please
So before the civil war, the families of those Black ppl who served in The war to be entitled to 40 acres of land and a mule so they can support the family. In the 1800s that was the perfect set up for a comfortable life but unfortunately after Lincoln got killed, his Vice President Andrew Johnson changed this and never gave African Americans their 40 acres. And jid is on a sports scheme talking about playing like Jordan, and “running for a million yards” which is a reference to football, so he’s saying even if you break all the rushing yard records, you’re still 40 acres short of what you’re entitled to. And “yards” are a unit of measurement on land in this context, and the slaves were owed 40 acres of land. So there’s the wordplay with it
"Learn your roots and who you rooting for" -Soul . this quote fits, song is fye! IV

Usually I wait for artists (mostly rappers) to drop their third or fourth album to determine their longevity (depending on whether the album is good or bad), but with J.I.D I already can tell that he’s gonna be here for a long time and his third album hasn’t dropped yet. Not to mention his performance on ROTD 3 and Spilligion were immaculate🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥. He has yet to disappoint and I don’t think that’s gonna happen anytime soon or ever dude is just that nice💯
When JID and Christo drop i already know its gonna be fire
Yessir

[Intro: JID]
(See the storm)
Yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah, uh
(Over there)
Yeah-yeah, uh
(Here it comes)
Fuck, check, dawg
[Verse 1: JID]
Take a chance, have faith, my lad
You got all of the same tools all the greats have had
Two eyes, two ears, one mouth, two hands
You can watch, listen more than you speak, take advantage
You peep all the karma that come with makin' the cream
The crop, full of demons providin' you what you need
They got, what's your thing? Alcohol or the lean?
Put the coke inside the weed, them niggas seasonin' the greens
Rap game turned from the slingers to the fiends
But I'm in between, I mean
I ain't pickin' teams but I had a dream like King
Fuckin' on this pretty little bi-, queen, I mean
Point me to the cheese, niggas talkin' cream
Park the car, I'm 'bout to part the seas
And move a mountain for money, nothing keepin' me
From gettin' to you, gettin' to me, Marvin G, Tammi T
But get your eyes cleaned for something you have never not, not seen
[Bridge: JID]
Okay, well
Prior to coming to Tuskegee (Uh)
From high school I went to college here, then Tuskegee Institute
While in college I had a professor that I really impressed with
He got me interested into politics
He was the first black (Uh) councilman in the city of Tuskegee (Check)
[Verse 2: JID]
Take a chance, have faith, my lad
You got all of the same tools all the greats have had
Maybe lesser than that
Way back when I was puttin' on my football hat
This institution came recruitin' little Route for the stats
They sat me in a room with my dad
And it was cool but when they left I was glad
And my pops was too, he said that's good-ass parenting
Reminding me 'bout that school that did them nigga experiments
On them black people, sharecroppers, down in Alabama, damn
It's not that far from Atlanta, it was the 1930s
They did them black folks dirty because a tan
A man was not a man, nigga, your granny wasn't grand
A scam into the plan to go recruit a group of stupid niggas
And shoot them up with syphilis instead of shoot to kill 'em
That's stupid different
The lengths that y'all trip to catch a nigga slippin' and what for?
'Cause we look different?
[Bridge]
Everyone with knowledge of that study (Let us keep rockin' this shit)
Would be terrified
But that study represents and demonstrated
The inhumanity of man to mankind (Yeah, yeah, yeah, ah, fuck)
I often say that
Look
[Verse 3: JID]
Take a chance, have faith, you in last place
Take a stand but don't take the stand for your man's sake
Just a dad tryna put some ham on a damn plate
I'll be damned, I don't feed the fam, nigga (Damn straight)
Elbow rubs and handshakes
From hands that tied roped on necks in red states
Another dead black-ass man, I need a damn break
They never gave us a chance, I had to take it
I need all the payments, for every day we suffered all the hatred
I want my granny to shoot the hands with Nancy Reagan
I want emancipation
Standin' naked at the auction with my dick out, hanging for reparations
No matter how much I say it, they ain't hearin' my voice
'Cause as long as them crackers payin' you ain't much of a choice
And you can shoot a million Jays, you'll prolly never be Jordan
Niggas ran for a million yards, you still forty acres short
[Outro]
See the storm
Over there
Here it comes
