The forthcoming Revenge of the Dreamers III compilation will undoubtedly broaden Dreamville's stranglehold in 2019, by showcasing its core members alongside the 'subjective best' in the game. The first wave of submissions was announced a few days ago, spearheaded by the usual suspects in JID, J. Cole.
Dreamville's president Ibrahim (and J. Cole's manager) has since confirmed the presence of T.I. and Rick Ross on the final draft. It all transpired on Twitter when he responded to Wale's assumption the Rick Ross had a minor stake on RotD III. Ibrahim's assertion was that T.I. was recording in the adjacent room to Rick Ross.

ChaseTheMoney, who produced JID's "Off Deez" with J. Cole, also added his touch to the album - as did Childish Major, T-Minus, Kenny Beats, Tay Keith, OG Parker, Supah Mario, in some capacity. Invariably, Dreamville's in-house producer Ron Gilmore, figures in the conversation as well, as does Juro "Mez" Davis, the label's go-to engineer. Brilliant Mack, Ced Brown are there to assists in the mixing, DJ Dark Knight with his executive touch.
