J.I.D. Does What He Does On “JIDtranada Freestyle”

Is it fair to call it J.I.D season, or is that simply naive optimism talking? Either way, the Spillage Village lyricist has been increasingly active, having dropped off a new freestyle earlier this week — you can check out the Christo-produced track right here, should you be so inclined. Now, he’s officially emerged with another new freestyle, this time enlisting Kaytranada to hold it down behind the boards. In that department, Kaytra slides through with a lowkey bop, the perfect backdrop for JID to kick effortless flows.

By now, we’ve already come to expect as much from the acclaimed Dreamville signee, who has been sitting on a few key projects for a minute now. It’s hard to assess if and when he’s planning on another November drop — lest we forget DiCaprio 2’s November arrival in 2018, but fans are hopeful that we’ll see a new J.I.D album sooner than later. Especially when he continues to rap at such a high caliber. “Twenty-somethin, Kurt Cobain inside the game, swerving change inside your lane,” he spits. “Heard you people want me dead well get in line and file your claim.” Check out “JIDtranada” right now, and sound off — do you want to hear the pair collaborate on a full tune?

QUOTABLE LYRICS

My membrane tainted, my pen pad painted with pain
Point range, aim at your brain — bang — I’m angry
Drinkin’ Jamie, I’m just like you but we ain’t the same
Twenty-somethin, Kurt Cobain inside the game
Swerving change inside your lane
Heard you people want me dead well get in line and file your claim

Kieran James Honors Memory with “Part of the Grind”

Singer-songwriter Kieran James delivers a devastating new single with “Part of the Grind,” a track to tackle the tangled emotions behind loss and memory. A love letter penned to a close friend who faced severe cognitive decline, the song’s emotional heft feels universal yet heartbreakingly personal.

Set to delicate instrumentation and achingly sung vocals, “Part of the Grind” is both a lament and an honoring, a means of remembering while addressing the unavoidable cost of time and illness. His voice floats, leaving room for silence and the long pauses that so often come with grief. But in that silence, there is warmth as well, a refusal to let memory be totally extinguished.

Resilience is also implied in the song’s title, a reminder that even in heartbreak, life goes on and holding the memory of someone stays with the rhythm of everyday living. it’s an anthem for anyone who has ever looked on witnessing decline, mixed sorrow with love.

In Kieran James’s “Part of the Grind,” we hear music as well as go behind it. He gives us room feel, to mourn, and to honor. In the process, he turns private pain into something achingly universal, a song for everyone who has either loved or lost.
