Spillage Village, whose members include Dreamville’s J.I.D and EarthGang, might be expanding its roster. After RCA Records artist Deante Hitchcock praised the collective via Twitter on Tuesday (June 9), J.I.D inquired about bringing him into the fold.
“Rapping wise I always wished I came up round a group of niggas like @SpillageVillage,” Hitchcock originally wrote. “Them boys keep each others pens sharp and I love hearing all of em come together. Can’t wait to hear the new shit.”
J.I.D responded, “Niggga u wana join?”
The gold-selling MC’s question led to a lighthearted back-and-forth between the two.
“Y’all got good dental insurance?” Hitchcock wondered.
J.I.D replied, “Nope, we broke baby.”
Spillage Village is comprised of J.I.D, EarthGang, 6LACK, Mereba, Jurdan Bryant and Hollywood JB. The collective released their debut EP Bears Like This in 2014.
The Atlanta-based crew has been working on a new album tilted Spilligion, which is expected to drop this summer. The upcoming LP will be the collective’s first project since 2016’s Bears Like This Too Much.

I like articles like this… simple but it was informative… though I knew the album was coming out, I didn’t know all the members of spillage village, and this also makes me want to check for Deante now
