We’ve Got A File On You: No I.D.

Dion “No I.D.” Wilson has made headline-grabbing music with some of the most famous rappers in the world, but you might not know who he is, and he’s fine with that. “I’ve always shunned a lot of things in my life as far as the limelight,” he says. As a Chicago hip-hop institution, he’s worked with stars of every generation for three decades, from producing early albums by his lifelong friend Common, to mentoring a young Kanye West, to prepping a collaborative project with Saba due out in 2024.
