Manifesting dreams into reality, J.I.D. is ready for his Oscar. Gearing up for the release of his sophomore Dreamville arrangement on Nov. 19, J.I.D. gifted fans with a cinematic trailer for his upcoming project.
Channeling his inner Leonardo DiCaprio, the “151 Rum” rapper re-imagined some of Leo’s most iconic scenes in anticipation for the release of Dicaprio 2. Accompanied by stripped down instrumentals for the forthcoming tracks, the minute-long video depicts over a handful of Leo scenes ranging from Titanic to The Revenant, the role which earned Dicaprio his first Oscar.
At the end of the clip, J.I.D. is also presented with a prestigious award from The Academy and accepts a golden J.I.D.-inspired award similar to the one that appears on the album’s tracklist.
