J.I.D and Metro Boomin reveal that they have "a lot of new music" together.

Metro Boomin is fresh off of his sophomore album while J.I.D is a few months removed from The Forever Story. However, it appears that the next move in their itineraries is new music together. The Savage Mode II producer took to Twitter where he shared a photo of himself and the Spillage Village artist in the studio. “Got a lot of new music coming but when me and @JIDsv drop,” he wrote along with several fire emojis and an emoji with spiral eyes. Though they didn’t confirm a release date, we’re hoping that this is something they’re planning to release this summer.

Though some thought it could be a one-off single, it turns out that the two of them are locking in for a joint project. Metro Boomin confirmed that they’re actually working on a collaborative project, though he didn’t reveal whether it’s a full-length or an EP. Afterward, J.I.D tweeted, “I love working with u brudda, it’s an honor.” In response, Metro Boomin wrote, “Honor is mine family.” A release date nor a title has been revealed just yet but we could imagine that this could be arriving sometime.
