Ima need another hour of this....matter of fact. Ima need a whole Kardashian 20 seasons of this right here😭😭😭 so beautiful

😭😭😂🔥🔥🙏🏿

[@ilexx876]

JID father got an iconic voice. When you hear it on the album you don't realize how natural it was.

[@Cuhhsin]

The backstory on Kody Blu 31 is just making the song 1000 times better, but the whole album in general ir so emotionally amazing, truly blessed experience

[@dwalkokc2593]

Instantly was my favorite song on the album but amplified x1000 now 😂

[@brandonmims1799]

my favorite song of the album, but yeah this makes it x1000 greater

[@latanyavera]

This low key made me emotional.Seeing the heart of what the album was inspired by and how it came to life .Like everything he said in his song is in front of us.He so humble .I have to see this hear this album live🥹🙌🏾

[@williamhardaway4432]

This is the dream to do for yours in a way that brings everyone you have loved in life together.

[@hapmusic0_0]

no lie exact same way 💖💖 to see the amount of humbleness and vigor in Destin, allowed us fans to connect to the music in a whole knew level.

[@marmiteghost]

hearing his parents speak you hear immediately where JID gets his intelligence and eloquence from also, can't explain it but them constantly swatting bugs away really adds to the vibes of this interview

[@tierrateske1932]

I agree this is beautiful & yeah I couldn’t not notice that 😂😂

[@mathewmcfool]

JID is a phenomenal emcee who is a hit away from international stardom. Positive vibes, great story! We need more interviews like this one thank you Ebro!

[@juliobaracat6590]

im from brazil and know him since di caprio 1

[@nat_hayes]

@@juliobaracat6590 I was just about to say, that one hit was with Imagine Dragons for the Arcane series, but I wouldn't be surprised if people internationally still knew somewhat of him. Though I still definitely agree in the sense that with the right few songs in terms of mass appeal, he might get put in the top tiers of GOAT convo for his generation and quite possibly era.

[@tottymc]

I’m from Portugal and I been here since Never :)

[@captblade4512]

Jid rarely stay in the states

[@tltbare7464]

I'm from south africa and I've been listening to him since off deez

[@juliogonzalez7773]

this made me respect JID even more, what a beautiful background, happy that the whole family is with him, keeping him grounded

[@jestertryna8956]

JID is such a real artist, he puts his whole life and emotions into his music

[@LookingForAName...]

JID definitely inherited his parents style. They've got a magnetism to them, with the way they speak and act.

[@coreycasciano3255]

JID was snubbed of an oscar for The Forever Story, one of the best rap albums ever made

[@kthommm]

I feel like JID is the authenticity the industry needs. So happy for him and his family. Much love and success

[@ajindie9989]

JID's album is fire and he is such a humble and cool dude. One of the greatest MCs of this generation

[@catherineantoine7688]

So humble, so talented, so smart, so hearted, so loyal, so Scorpio 🙌🏽❤️‍🔥🦂🫶🏽🖤

[@mr.porter4373]

Beautiful property. Beautiful family. On top of the success his parents are still together and that in itself is a great accomplishment for them.

[@shaybrenee]

You can hear in the music how much he loves his family and how much they mean to him but it’s completely different to see him interact with them. It’s like watching his heart beating outside of his chest. This was a beautiful interview. I can’t wait to see how he’ll bring these stories to life on tour.

[@teamcodehuwa9497]

been puting people on JID ever since Never.....shocked at how many young people around here never even heard of him...some didn't even know Cole....and i stay in Macon Georgia....about an hour away from Atl...but when they hear JID they lose it...we got to start talking to our youth more....radio and most media outlets stuck on the most popular or viral.....or what ever they choose to feed u ....thanx JID ....u make Georgians and real hiphop headz everywhere proud....beautiful family....don't know bout yall but... Forever Story seems like more than music....it feels "alive"...peace

[@JayRockLA]

Man, I try to tell everybody bout this kid. Makes it even doper when I realized I went to school with one of his older brothers

[@2015rashad]

Terrific feature. Nothing better than seeing an artist in his/her element or background

[@ashleywilliams8590]

Yall need to take note of this legend in the making love his music and story.

[@Youtubeuser900]

JID is such a humble person. This video made me appreciate the album 100 times more

[@theblacklipbastardspodcast243]

JID not only drop AOTY, interview of the year too

[@KyleLyttle-o6l]

I love the fact that he worked his family into this album. This whole project and how much he values his family is very inspiring.

[@aze4964]

probably one of my favorite interviews of all time

[@blackbird9645]

So happy for bro

[@HEALBOIBEDSIDE1]

This album is very VERY special. Time will show that more and more. Very strong first impression on this project but I can't wait to live with this one for years. This WILL be considered a classic in 5 years or so.

[@samn3276]

Fax. This gone age like fine Wizzine!!

[@josepharchuleta8727]

Gotta appreciate the interviewer for coming with respect and keeping it real, entertaining substance

[@jitsemoerenhout4005]

JID way off clothing is S tier, he always pulls up with the most crazy t-shirts, hoodies...

[@scoopalexander]

I went to visit my fam in Covington, GA and saw my grandpa's house in bad shape. We used to own the whole lot and slowly overtime we lost it piece by piece as the owners passed away. Seeing JID do this was very powerful for me as it illustrates this full circle moment. Truly inspiring. I look to do the same for my fam one day. This was dope!

[@ldcoldwell]

This was beautifully done. So happy to see this man fulfill his destiny.

[@becahloveee]

Hearing his parents talk about this pride and belief in their children's greatest brought tears to my eyes! wooo

[@BrothaEnock]

Just goes to show how far family support goes. If you have that you’re really blessed do not take it for granted! This was beautiful and inspiring.

[@TheEncouragementKid]

man, JID's mum is 60?! She looks 40 on God!! This is a very well done interview. I loved it. I'll be honest I think I like JID even more than his music, him and his whole family just seem like the best people to have a cookout with. They seem so humble, so kind. Keep up the great work JID and maybe one day God willing, we might even collab. Much Love The Encouragement KID.

[@staigenerator2949]

I mean the dude himself is 32 and he could pass for 24

[@TheEncouragementKid]

@@staigenerator2949 that's massive fax i thought he was younger whole lee, that inspires me even more to chase my musical dreams thank you

[@ocampbell1954]

That drum pad JID pops gave him created one of the craziest flows i've ever heard. The way this cat flows is like an instrument. It's like he is manipulating the beat. Nutz!

[@RizzleFS]

Been waiting for this album and I have never been disappointed as a fan of JID...Thank you for this beautiful insight!

[@bradleyvadas2835]

this is hands down one of the best interviews i’ve watched, bringing the family in to talk about the true meaning not only behind the album but behind what it is that JID does everything for, absolutely beautiful

[@Romey23]

Just the principle of this interview is amazing. An album inspired by his family and an interview of/with his entire family. I love this in its entirety.

[@tramethozeine]

"All of this can't hold how proud I am"

[@Thefrmgallery]

That’s what it’s all about.

[@05assahse]

JID's album is phenomenal. One of true realist artists. He deserves more success. Props to Ebro for this interview!

[@Tiagopetungo7]

bruh...this was so beautiful... Specially when his mom started speaking... low key felt emotional! Plus I LOVE the Album. Big ups to JID following his heart, stepping up when football didnt work for him. Carry on growing bro! Peace from Angola !

[@enjoisk8a911]

I cant recall another artist interview that made me smile this much. JID's dad is one of a kind and the project is so dope. Definitely has to be on your short list of Grammy noms for the year

[@LivviFantasy]

I only knew a couple of his songs for the last 5 years or so but when I saw the countless rave reviews of how good this new album was I feel I was missing out and had to listen. ITS SO GOOD😩 you’ve earned a new fan JID

[@tedyiovchev3]

I could listen to JID all day. His voice is so smooth

[@pruett89]

This is so amazing. Seeing his Mother and Father reminds me of my family. When his mom said that they spoke greatness over their children, that touched my heart. My grandma used turns of phrase like that when she was still around. You can feel the love like his dad said, you should feel it. Love of your family is a powerful thing.

[@TheOpportunityForChange]

This joint brought me to tears of joy J.I.D! Man, my family got a farm in North West Georgia that ive always thought to buy. The matriarchs and the patriarchs spread far and wide and I always felt I would be the one to play a BIG role in continuing my families legacy. This certainly helped with the vision! Blessings

[@aaliyahc.2454]

This was so beautiful to watch. To truly see JIDs roots, the love him and his family share, the legacy he is working to create, and just all around growth is amazing.

[@Valenya23]

I've high key never been so in awe of someone's genius as I am with JID. This is just so special. Props to everyone apart of this video.

[@jestertryna8956]

JID making his family stronger is a beautiful thing

[@bluehalo8604]

The BEST interview! Love seeing family xome together and how proud his dad is of all of them. JID is quickly becoming my fave. He's so down to earth and real but approachable. I hope he sees wonderful success this year and that it's just the beginning.

[@THEITFACTORPODCAST]

Man this is such a blessing to see your greatness! Only more greatness to come!! I can not wait until the day I am able to bring you onto my podcast.

Bro is smoking on my top 5 tonight

[@Jonomill13.]

JiD is equally as gifted on the mic, as his heart

[@DHawkBeats]

This was so incredible, I loved the interview with the family. In some weird way, his parents remind me of mine and I think that’s so sweet, I hope that I can get my parents to their first rap concert and it be mine 😂 and that’ll be around when they’re 60 too lmao

[@DeadLoverface]

Sept 1st was my granny's 18 year death anniversary she was more like my mother for most of my adolescent till her death and even after she's help me through some tough times.. i just think this is absolutley beautiful too see destin and his whole family in a place theyve all called home for so many generations its just to lovely a wonderful thing ❤ much love sent too all them you can definitely feel it ...

[@brinsleymotsepa1688]

Thanks for making me cry JID... What you just did Will forever be there... True Legacy!! Beautiful Family!! Inspired!!

[@LAVISHING]

Good to see your family bud. When I make it down to Georgia I’ll see it in person! Congratulations on everything and I hope that I can do that for my family. I’ll get my folks a house down in Texas to be closer to my older brother!

[@lyndsayreed3997]

I’m crying they’re such a beautiful family🥹😭 and this interview makes me love TFS so much more and I didn’t think that was possible 🙏🏾

[@jayfarmz5449]

Izzy didn’t lie when he said if you don’t feel anything then what type of music do you listen to.

[@williamdaniels4013]

THIS INTERVIEW RIGHT HERE IS SSOOO BEAUTIFUL & SHOWS THE TRUE MEANING BEHIND THE PERSONAL INTROSPECTIVE OF J.I.D. MINDSET OF THE FOREVER STORY!!! A CLASSIC OUT NOW FOREVER & THE REPLAY VALUE FOR YEARS & YEARS TO COME. NO PUN INTENDED, POSSIBLY FOREVER!!! 😊👌👍 THIS MAN DESERVES TO WIN IT ALL & GET ALL THE ACCOLODES THAT GOD HAS TO MUSICALLY & FINANCIALLY HAS TO BESTOW UPON HIM!!! 🙏✌️✌️

[@xanderreimers4445]

Jids gonna be one of the greats, this is a good kid maad city type of moment

[@joelekelow5380]

This is so wholesome, his father is amazing.

[@RickyBobbay]

Goes to show what kind of person he is outside of music. Album been on repeat since release. This man deserves all his roses. NEVER IS FOREVER 🕊

[@Ektetteh1]

I haven't felt tears in my eyes in a long time. From loving every bit of the album, to now putting faces to the voices on some of these tracks, I'm forever grateful for this masterpiece of love and family.

[@TofuTeo]

JID's momma is so sweet and mentally/emotionally sharp. And dad's so warm and supportive. 🥺

[@TreesRdope]

This was an Absolutely beautiful interview with his family!!! I shed some tears of joy just watching this. Outstanding credits to whoever set this up

[@MrBaskins2010]

real humble guy with such talent

[@RedRosamond]

I love this interview. JID and his family are so beautiful, humble and amazing. It's so brilliant to hear such an incredible album and then watch this and have every instinct re affirmed. His mom is right, JID GOAT

[@hoc1992]

he honestly, is right next after Cole and Kendrick and I hope JID goes far and makes classics

[@GroovyT824]

this interview should be up to at least 100,000 views by NOW!!!! Great interview, FAMILY vibes, LOVE!

[@ubesaaa]

Dude, everytime I am shocked by his low streaming numbers... Most artists get a hit song and the new fans have no previous discography to discover. JID is the COMPLETE opposite, if he gets the big break people will discover a legendary catalogue of music, this will cement him in the hip hop history for sure.

[@tottymc]

All of this was just so wholesome, JID’s family is so freaking cute, you’d wanna go like, have lunch at their place they seem so welcoming :)😊

[@andrewmoussa7597]

Jid puts so much work and thought into his albums he’s like a director in the booth, I pray one day I get the privilege of working with him

[@dreamer5687]

Jid with AOTY!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@vez117]

JID unbelievable artist my favorite artist. He’s got an good family and those morals he was taught spill out into his music super dope.

[@monique1938]

I’ve never seen anything so beautiful! This is the prototype!! All around great job J.I.D!!!! We got you

[@_MoodGod_]

JID's family all being around and his parents experiencing him as their first concert is so wholesome! His mom calling him a GOAT was great

[@richardottley4611]

This interview just hits so different.. very humble guy JID is.. and very genuine family.. kinda reminds me of my family 😅 no cap 🧢

[@8SidesReed]

It’s so sad he doesn’t get enough hype compared to what’s consider mainstream or popular. I never hear anyways say JID top five or oh you hear this new Jid song. And that might just be due to location. But even other rapers don’t say that it seems like. I hope this album wins tons of awards and people start to take some hard notice.

[@dumbprodigy8403]

This doesn’t only paint a picture of what it means to be a top artist but a top human being. Made me reflect on my life and my relationships. Powerful is all I can describe it as.

[@14xfreddy]

Bringing the family together! Greatness JID❤️

[@JaySut]

Maaaan you can feel the love fr. Beautiful family

[@itslispybruh]

This is insanely emotional, next time I hear the album I might shed a few tears..

[@braindalco3858]

Wait a minute. He said Jontae Austin is his cousin. If y'all don't know who he is go google him and look at all the songs he wrote. Legendary writer. He is the Man Neyo did a writers Verzuz with in the early stages of Verzuz during the Pandemic. Wow that explains a lot to me about JID's Pen.

[@Memeeaze]

Such a solid dude, so smart and diverse, a goat fasho so nice to see how humble he is, much love JID 💗

[@diasboavidachavane9620]

His album is about all of this: family...that why is so special
