Are we getting making of videos of the new album? Otherwise I won’t unlock that second listening level. It’s essential at this point. Imagine if they were integrated into Spotify or something. Or are we approaching a Beautiful Mind streaming service at this point?

Last night I woke the… Nah just kidding haha. It would have to be “what if who I hoped to be was always me, and the love I fought to feel was always free” love how it points to Jesus honestly. I always thought Luxury went “I give it up to heaven cause it is in John”, as in the book in the bible, turns out it is “it isn’t Jon” haha. That’s when you remember Chris Martin talking about “it doesn’t matter” the lyrics can be what you want ‘em to be.

Still wearing my Beautiful Mind THC red dad hat when playing piano. Puts me right into the ‘Jon Bellion making of’ spirit as I call it. Honestly that hat makes me feel like a kid again, like I can do anything.

@ihnenkate Awesome! I remember someone geeking out about how you can hear Jon Bellion’s voice on Justin Bieber’s ‘Anyone’ in the lead vocal for a split second, in addition to the background vocals of course. Stuff like that is what I live for as a Jon Bellion fan. The way he uses the chef emoji when talking about producing and writing on instagram stories for literally the largest tracks in the world is so fitting and wholesome too. Chef’s kiss.

Then you’re in for a treat my bro. Go listen to ‘Little Things’ by Louis The Child. Jon Bellion wrote it and is all over it. I mean… his voice is literally the rhytmic foundation of the track it’s wild. And also I guess you of course all know Obsession?

Mah’s Joint. “When my mother was a mother to her mum”. Wow. Just wow. Those words hit deep, stupid deep. Haha see what I did there? Late on the forum for me now maybe time to sleep.

Made this and posted it on Reddit a while back. Thought I’d post here as well.

The slowed version of ‘Kid Again’ with a visualiser like this is also available on Reddit Kid Again Slowed for people who love those versions!

Hearing the strings hit on ‘Carry Your Throne’ for the first time. Magnetically Majestic. You owe yourself to give the ending a relisten, 2:03 mark and out. Goosegumps 🥹🪿🪿🪿

@jaymelh33 it’s a great one, solid choice

@Derrian-Berry for real! it’s a part of my musical palette I believe that is a case for a lot of artists too? Jon Bellion is like the artist’s artist in that way. Even though that’s a cliche thing to say it truly is the case. I love how it’s full circle too – Kanye West inspired Jon Bellion, a long with Dilla of course, and now we see Donda with production credits from Jon Bellion’s folks ojivolta (mark williams and raul cubina). That’s so crazy to me. The world, I mean God – works in mysterious ways.

We all know the answer to this. What’s special about Jon Bellion is there is no favourite song. Like in Kung Fu Panda how there is no secret ingredient. His artistry is more about a way of being – it’s all about being in a constant excited awe, a presence of spirit that you witness in the ‘making of’ videos, that you also feel when listening. Point being they’re all good. If I have to pick though, the greats are Wonder Years (my nieces blowing bubbles in the yaard), Stupid Deep, Hand of God, Luxury, Guillotine. I’d also add that some of the melodies on The Definition are so iconic they’re engraved in my mind! And the rapping on Adult Swim… woooph
