J.I.D., EarthGang
With Chaz French, Lute.
High Noon Saloon 701A E. Washington Ave., Madison, Wisconsin 53703
With similar styles, each paying their dues to classic hip-hop while moving the craft forward, J.I.D. and the duo EarthGang are some of the brightest bulbs of hip-hop’s future. Just listen to EarthGang’s song “Meditate” off their Robots EP, featuring J.I.D., to hear the potential. Each Atlantan emcee trades incisive, blood-freezing bars about living in the United States while black. Both of these artists have fully formed voices that are still growing with each release. With Chaz French, Lute.
