With his new album The Forever Story set to drop at the end of August, J.I.D. continues to build momentum with his new track “2007.”

Clocking in at approximately seven-and-a-half minutes long, the cut is produced by Latrell James, Christo and the artist himself and features guest appearances from his dad, Carl Louis Route Jr, who delivers the interlude, Dreamville President Ibrahim “Ib” Hamad, who is on the first verse and J. Cole, who hops on the outro. “2007” tells the full journey of his musical career, starting from meeting EARTHGANG in university to signing with Dreamville rather than Quality Control and releasing The Never Story in 2017.

The Forever Story is set to drop on August 26 and will mark his first full-length solo release since 2018’s DiCaprio 2. Between then and 2022, however, J.I.D. released hopped on the Dreamville compilation albums Revenge of the Dreamers III and D-Day: A Gangsta Grillz Mixtape, as well as the major label debut of Spillage Village‘s Spilligion.
