JID‘s rollout for The Forever Story continues. Yesterday, the Atlanta rapper piqued interest by releasing the tracklist, sans features. While previously released tracks like “Dance Now” and “Surround Sound” had their featured artists included, the rest were obscured, suggesting they’d remain a mystery until the album’s release this Friday, August 24. However, just a day later, JID has shared an updated tracklist with social media, revealing an eclectic assortment of supporting acts including fellow Dreamville artists Ari Lennox and Earthgang, rappers Lil Durk, Lil Wayne, and Yasiin Bey, and singers Eryn Allen Kane, Johnta Austin, and Ravyn Lenae.

On Instagram, JID also included a sweet dedication to other collaborators and contributors who didn’t quite warrant feature credits. “The official features on The Forever Story,” he wrote. “Wana say thank you to everyone who helped put these words and sounds together, this meant the world to me because none of this was easy and you gave your all to my vision also.” The other names included were James Blake, Justine Skye, Foushee, Spillage Village compatriot Benji., Asiahn, Mereba, and more.
