He first appeared on the Atlanta hip-hop scene with his debut EP, DiCaprio, in 2015. Growing up, JID's first connection with music was through his parents' collection of classic funk and soul LPs. After a stint at Hampton University playing football, JID also hooked up with fellow MCs as part of the Spillage Village collective. By 2012, he had dropped out of college to focus on music, and in 2014 he headed out on what would be a productive tour with EarthGang, Bas, and Ab-Soul. Touring allowed JID to craft his skills, and a year later he recorded and dropped the DiCaprio EP, which saw him team up with a host of producers, as well as EarthGang. While keen to distance himself from the generic abrasive trap sound that had dominated the Atlanta scene, JID wanted to deliver something that was more than just about a beat, and instead focused his time and effort on lyrics as well. In 2016, JID, alongside the rest of the Spillage Village crew, released the album Bears Like This Too Much, which saw the rapper honing his unique delivery and inspired lyrics. In 2017, he announced that he had signed to J. Cole's Dreamville label (a connection made with the rapper via JID's part in the 2014 tour with Bas and Cole's friend and producer Cedric Brown), which released the single Never and full-length The Never Story at the beginning of the year. In September of 2018, he issued the single "151 Rum," the first offering from DiCaprio 2, his sophomore full-length and sequel to his 2015 EP. Later that year he released the album "Dicaprio 2". JID released his most recent album, "The Forever Story" on August 26th, 2022, the two singles on the album, "Surround Sound (feat. 21 Savage & Baby Tate)" and "Dance Now" were released on January 14th 2022, and August 9th 2022 respectively.

JID Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I'm Zack, you AC, that Jessie and Kelly
I pull up to your hood just let me know when you ready
I'm rolling up this dub, finna face it, beheaded
Hold on, chill out, please give me a second
I'm drowsy off a xan, nigga, legs like spaghetti
Cut all of the bullshit, nigga chop the confetti
You ready? I'm ready, you ready? I'm ready
I fuck up the pack, I don't fuck with the sack
And I mean the bread come quick
He told me bring him 300, I brought him excuses and like 200 or something
I mean most of ya'll niggas love drugs like me
Love me like drugs, bitch I might be
Yo love light bulb, turn on lights please
Turn off your cool, I mean, I might freeze
I mean hold on, relax, please give me a chance
I was moving too fast, I ain't hear what you said
We was celebrating life, tryna get to the fetty
But me and my two niggas we like Ed, Edd, and Eddy
Ed, Edd, and Eddy
Ed, Edd, and Eddy
Me and my two niggas be like Ed, Edd, and Eddy
Ed, Edd, and Eddy
Ed, Edd, and Eddy
Me and my two niggas be like Ed, Edd, and Eddy
Ed, Edd, and Eddy
Ed, Edd, and Eddy
Me and my two niggas be like Ed, Edd, and Eddy
Ed, Edd, and Eddy
Ed, Edd, and Eddy
Me and my two niggas be like Ed, Edd, and Eddy
In "EdEddnEddy," Jid and his two friends compare themselves to the main characters of the popular animated TV show "Ed, Edd, and Eddy." In the first verse, Jid introduces himself and his friends using their first names, Zack, AC, Jessie, and Kelly. He also mentions that he is smoking a dub (a small amount of marijuana), and is about to "face it, beheaded," meaning he is going to finish smoking it in one go. However, he is also "drowsy off a xan," which is a reference to the drug Xanax, and his legs feel like "spaghetti." Jid then tells his friend to cut the nonsense and get to the point, saying he's ready whenever they are.
In the second verse, Jid admits that he wouldn't make a good weed dealer because he smokes too much and doesn't handle the product well. He also pokes fun at himself, saying he brought his friend "excuses and like 200 or something" instead of the agreed-upon amount of 300. Jid then compares his love for drugs to how much other people love him, saying he might just be as addictive. He ends the song by returning to the Ed, Edd, and Eddy comparison, repeating "Me and my two niggas be like Ed, Edd, and Eddy" multiple times.
Overall, the song seems to be about Jid and his friends enjoying their youth and having a good time, even if it means getting a little bit silly and indulging in drugs.
