    JID has full clearance to come for anyone's neck. you don't just flow like that and get no credit. His versatility is freakish and refreshing. he's like watching a mutation of the best attributes of various artists combined. I don't even think anybody else on dreamville roster can match his level of wittiness and flow, and Im a huge fan of dreamville
