How did Jon Bellion get noticed?

[schnazy]

Hey,
I’m an aspiring producer myself and I’m wondering what got Jon Bellion in the door of the industry. Did you have any mentors etc? When did you start getting paid for services?

(I’m going to graduate soon with sound engineering and wondering what tips/advice you have for someone starting out getting into the industry)

I found him on DatPiff (which probably isn’t a thing anymore) and I burned his songs on a CD. Yes Jon that’s how long you got us starving.
