Considered one of final 12 months’s standout rap albums was JID’s The Forever Story. Fueled by singles like “Surround Sound,” “Dance Now,” and “Kody Blu 31,” the album was a crucial and fan favourite and business success for the Atlanta rapper, peaking at No. 12 on the Billboard 200 — his best-performing album up to now.
