Earlier this week, Yasiin Bey (fka Mos Def) praised J.I.D. during an Ebro In The Morning interview. Speaking about the quantity of music releasing to digital platforms, the Black Star MC said, “How are people even supposed to focus on your sh*t when it’s eleventy million ni**as that got new sh*t out every day? I can’t listen to all these ni**as. I got sh*t to do. I’m not sitting here… I’m not listening to all these ni**as. Why? I could just listen to already made ni**as, the sh*t that gets better with time, and if some new ni**as come through, like my man J.I.D from Dreamville. Fire.”

Their upcoming Dreamville LP is expected to be titled Mirror Land.
