Cole's Dreamville Records, an imprint of Interscope Records in 2017. He formed the musical collective Spillage Village with EarthGang in 2010, and later formed the hip hop group Zoink Gang with Smino, Buddy, and Guapdad 4000.[3] His fluent rapping style and usage of wordplay has been highly acclaimed by several music critics.

JID gained recognition after releasing several independent projects, including Route of Evil (2012), Para Tu (2013) and DiCaprio (2015). His debut studio album, The Never Story (2017) was met with critical acclaim and contained the single "Never".[4][5] His second album, DiCaprio 2 (2018) was supported by the singles "151 Rum" and "Off Deez" (with J. Cole), and saw continued critical acclaim.[6][7] His 2021 single "Enemy" with American band Imagine Dragons, the opening theme to Netflix's Arcane, peaked at number five on the Billboard Hot 100 and remains his highest-charting song. His third album, The Forever Story (2022) received further acclaim and peaked at number 12 on the Billboard 200; it spawned the top 40 single "Surround Sound" (featuring 21 Savage and Baby Tate).

He attended Stephenson High School, where he played football as a defensive back.[11][8] During his senior year he dislocated his hip.[12] He later accepted a full athletic scholarship to play NCAA Division I football at Hampton University. Route was redshirted his first year of eligibility and then played two seasons before he was kicked from the team for skipping practices.[13][14][15] Route eventually moved in with Doctur Dot and Johnny Venus, a popular rap duo with the stage name EarthGang who he met while at Hampton University in Virginia.[16]
