About DiCaprio 2 by JID Album
DiCaprio 2 is J.I.D’s sophomore studio album, following March 2017’s The Never Story. It is also the sequel to his January 2015 EP DiCaprio. Both projects are named after Leonardo DiCaprio, who J.I.D has frequently indicated is his favorite actor. J.I.D first subtly announced the album’s title in late March 2018. “151 Rum,” the album’s lead single, was released on September 19, 2018. On October 3, 2018, COLORS premiered a video of J.I.D performing “Workin Out.” The album’s second official single, “Off Deez,” a collaboration with J. Cole, was released on November 6, 2018. Another song on the album, “Hasta Luego,” was released on June 29, 2017, as a throwaway from The Never Story, but it was included on DiCaprio 2 as a bonus track. On October 31, 2018, J.I.D posted the album’s official artwork and announced its release date. An alternate cover art had previously been revealed on September 15, 2018. On November 11, 2018, J.I.D revealed the album’s tracklist. He attempted to hide the features, but some were visible, possibly intentionally. He released the full tracklist on November 16, 2018, confirming features from A$AP Ferg, Ella Mai, Joey Bada$$, 6LACK, Method Man, and BJ the Chicago Kid.
