The official soundtrack to Creed III was released earlier this month by JID. In addition to Proximity Media, Outlier Society, Dreamville, and Frank Brim, the body of work was executive produced by Dreamville as well. The first taste of the soundtrack was JID’s and Lute’s “Ma Boy” single, which was released at the end of February, and has been one of the biggest sellers ever. In a video presentation that took place today (March 14), the two returned to introduce the video that goes along with the song. With the new visual, JID puts himself in a boxing ring as he fires off his signature flow, taking direct inspiration from the Michael B. Jordan-directed movie:
I was delighted to hear that back in August of 2022, JID delivered his highly anticipated album, The Forever Story. This project features an impressive roster of artists including Johnta Austin, Yasiin Bey, and Lil Wayne, among others. Additionally, this project has tapped into the talents of many peers including BADBADNOTGOOD, Mustafa The Poet, 21 Savage, EarthGang, Lil Durk, Ari Lennox, and Fousheé. Executive produced on The Forever Story, as well as authoring and producing all 16 tracks, was longtime DJ and producer Christo, who had 10 credits to his name.
In addition, Lute has recently released a new album called Gold Mouf. There are 13 tracks contained in this offering, with appearances by labelmates such as Cozz, JID, and Ari Lennox, as well as performances by BJ The Chicago Kid, Saba, Westside Boogie, and more. In a short period of time afterward, he released the official deluxe upgrade of the album, which added six new songs, including “Like Wine” a track that appeared on DJ Drama’s D-Day: A Gangsta Grillz Mixtape.
