#ProducerReaction #Music #Review - Hudba
Hey guys, leave your Q & A questions below! Hope you enjoyed the video, thanks for the support, and i’ll see y’all soon!
AJR vs Jon Bellion
Never heard of ‘em
have you listened to jons older stuff? like the 'scattered thoughts' mixtape and 'claps and autotunes for lovers' ?? if not you should definitely do a reaction video to that stuff! jon graduated high school with my sister, so i've been following and supporting him for a long time. i'm so glad he's getting the recognition he deserves. it's nice to see people appreciate his music the way i always have!
Kaleigh Frankel i’ve heard all his music from Scattered thoughts onwards. Never heard anything before that!
AJR vs Jon Bellion?
This is the type of album that should win a Grammy
Multiple
Yesssssss.
Jon’s incredible, it kills me when people say they haven’t heard of him
Ikr. He is the best
Damn, took the words right out of my mouth man. Ikr
someone who can understand jons talent earns my sub
Ayyye thanks fam! Glad to have you
adult swim is one of the best rap songs i’ve heard in a while. give us a rap album already jon
Right?
he's not dropping a rap album bc he doesn't want all the fame😎
At first the beat switches for me weren’t for me but now I dig it. I think it adds something new to rap and a good switch in the rap we get nowadays
He said his intention was to make a “mini mix tape” within a track, so keeping that in mind while listening really adds to it. Shows off the creativity and provides a reason for all the switches
Doug Araujo when you said that I went back and listened to it and now it fits more now knowing that information.
Did anyone notice at the end of “let’s begin” you can hear that Oh my god meme😂😂
I can't hear it
YOOOOOOO LMAOOOOO
BlackYoshi404 it's right at the mark of 10 seconds left. It has a heavy delay on it.
Wow this guy knows his music.. the way he appreciates this different style. I’ve seen so many reactions/reviews where people trashed the album because they didn’t like the difference. You just have to appreciate different sounds. Jon is incredible at finding ways to hit you with sounds you don’t expect.
Kyler Taylor and he makes it work so perfectly that when it hits it doesn’t feel out of place
could the end to mah's joint be symbolic of how he imagines the trumpets of heaven? specifically what's played as one enters to heaven, could explain why it's indescribable maybe that's what he intended
If I'm not mistaken, that's exactly what his vision is. The celebreation of his grandmother going up to Heaven with God. It's the underlying theme of the album art sort of
His lyrical spiritual sprinkling throughout each track was nothing short of anointed. Seriously. Tapping into that kind of talent can’t be explained otherwise
album of the year no doubt
Currently working on a remix for convversations with my wife!
For sure
A few things... Just wanted to start by saying I have been a fan of Jon Bellion for about 3 years now. Came into the game a little late, but better late than never. I don't think I have seen someone put so much into their music before. The first time I heard Human Condition, I was blown away. I still am. But this new album just sort of feels different. This is a personal feeling for me and something I think we all agree with, but the goosebumps during every single song, along with the message and fucking vibes it puts off....??? Just insanity and the reason why we love him. This reaction was just spot on. I am so happy I found this channel because this enhanced the album even more for me. You helped me hear so many sounds that my ears didn't pick up. Those background quiet claps were just ughh. I wish I had the ear you have for music. I have listened to this album about 4-5 times so far and I learned more from this video than just listening by myself. Thank you so much! Definitely have a new subscriber.
Thank YOU man. It’s you guys that make these videos worth it! Took me about 5 hours to make the video, but the payoff is priceless
@@DougAraujo 5 hours of work that turned into one hell of a reaction! I see this video getting pretty big. Keep up the grind! Am excited to watch all of your other vids and am excited to see everything you put out in the future. Thanks for helping me to hear things I would not have heard by myself. I already owe you too much!
Hahah it’s my pleasure man, i’m glad you chose to stick around! Hope to keep showing you details you might not have heard before in my next videos ✊🏼
I've never seen anyone appreciate Jon's music like this on CZcams 😩 thank you for making this video. When you said you were a Jon Bellion fan I knew your reaction video to one of his albums would be very similar to mine 😂
I’ve been a little disappointed with the other reactions to Jon that i’d seen, so I knew i had to come with it on this video ✊🏼
thank god someone picked apart the production on this LP. the greatest i’ve ever heard sonically. both the organic instruments and the synths blew my mind. great review
The way you appreciate this album makes me appreciate it even more and I already thought it was incredible
Worth the wait 10/10
Finally found someone who considers Jon bellion the best singer ever . The definition is actually my second favorite. Human condition is the best .
Moosarjb Translations is my favorite, remember it from the day it came out.
Jon is truly a master of his craft and his passion is so inspiring to anyone that loves music. I can’t wait for him to score films and evolve even more than the incredible artist he is today. This man is a modern day legend! His music speaks volumes, just listen and get lost...
Dude, I appreciate your detailed analysis and love for Jon Bellion on this one! Also you are right, Human Condition is definitely a life changing album! Just like you I got inspired to get into producing because of Jon Bellion. I got into Jon Bellion back in 2016 exactly when Human Condition dropped and around that time my first gf ever, my first love, broke up with me. Just like Jon, I was thinking that I was destined to be with this girl and unfortunately it didn’t work out at that time. The lyrics of Human Condition and The Definition were so relatable and those albums literally became my therapy in those hard emotional times... In these two years I have grown, I know lot more than I was used to due to my heartbreak, but you know what is incredible? Me and my ex got back together just after the release of GSP... It is truly incredible and I’m so grateful to God that we are back together. Hopefully we are really meant to be together. The power of Jon Bellion ❤️
Awesome, happy for u ❤️
This album honestly blew me away. I smiled all the way through, it's just amazing. Jon has been my favourite since the definition.
The definition’s in my top 3 favorite mixtapes ever along with acid rap and If You’re Reading This It’s Too Late
@@DougAraujo acid rap was amazing. I literally listened to the definition and the next day THC released so that was pretty cool. Awesome review btw
Thank you! And yeah Acid Rap’s been in my top 3 mixtapes since i first heard it. So many other good ones too like So Far Gone, What a Time to be Alive, Friday Night Lights, hell even The Seperation by Jon Bellion
@@DougAraujo I love your taste in music dude. Also the way you listen to music, it was really cool seeing that.
Thanks man, i’m thinking about branching out and reacting to other genres too. Lots of really dope bands i want to put y’all onto. If you enjoy Jon’s music, check out a band called “Ripe”. Their song “Goon Squad” is awesome. They’ll most likely be the next subject of a puttin yall on video
Completely agree with everything you've said, wish I could like this video a Bellion times!
I wish so too! 😂
This review is amazing. Jon is the greatest creator out their in my opinion, glad to see others loving his sound and passion
when you quoted that line from “the making of human” I immediately subbed.
Cozydae i’m glad you did so! I’ve been binge watching his “making of” videos again the last few days
Doug Araujo yeah they never get old! Jon is the goat. Also keep up the dope videos man!
“Let’s Begin” the first time I heard it, my irregular heartbeats almost had the best of meeee😭❤️👏🏾it’s so good! My favorite
Duuuude!!! When you said “cinematic” during track one I got SO DAYUM EXCITED to see your reaction to the rest of the album!!!!!! EPIC!!!!!!!
Subscribed! awesome video. I love when reviewers take into account how it makes them feel at the moment they hear it
Hearing you gush about Jon and really break down his production made me smile so hard, I had to subscribe. He is hands down my favorite artist, no contest. GSP is straight-up artwork. You can't pick just one track to love, each one is unique and beautiful. I loved the old album references you made! His genius is DEFINITELY intimidating!!
You should check out the video i dropped on Keyz’s new album!
Loved your reaction buddy!
You got what he was trying to say spot on. Great review! Love this and Jon’s passion for music
If he ever went off the radar for good, it'd be a sad day for music, the man's a genius. I understand his desire to be done with fame, but man alive, he's a gift.
He’s the best thing in music right now
Really great video! Love how you react to the different sounds and know exactly what they are lol
Thank you!
No nut November was over when he dropped this album
😂😂😂
Lmao yes
Absolutely love when people appreciate great music. Great video. Subscribed.
Thank you! Hope you enjoy the videos
brilliant reaction, deserve so many more subscribers
Thank you!!
Just found your channel.. really appreciate this review and the details you explain throughout. you've got a new subscriber on your hands!
Sweet! Glad you enjoyed the video ✊🏼✊🏼
I found this channel through uploading a Jon Bellion remix myself and I have to say that I really enjoyed the fact that you gave an in depth commentary on the album. You deserve way more subscribers.
Thanks fam! I try to be as thorough as possible
Nice review bro
“Johns music is timeless” is that a reference back to translations through speakers???
No! Totally unintentional lol, but from now on, i’ll tell people it IS a reference because that’s way cooler
what a coincidence, he wanted to be timeless and ppl already describe as that
best utübr Sammy davis at the bar drinking moonshine
This is my favorite reaction of this album!!! Jon has literally changed the fricking GAME production/writing/melodically, we’ve just witnessed history.
Hey man really like your personality and commentary, keep it up homie
Thank you, bro
"The genius is intimidating" I see that Pre Occupied reference
Ayye good ear fam
Great review! You really know how to put your thoughts and feelings into words.
The way I heard about the song Beyonce didn't get is... Jon, sent out a song to multiple artists, Christina and Demi wanted it first and so he gave it to them, then later Beyonce requested the song for an artist she signed but Jon unfortunately already gave it away. Just a bummer situation.
Speechless 😶
Finally someone who really APPRECIATES Jon Bellion! 🙌
For sure!
You definitely should listen to NF!! This reaction is amazing, I loved the analyzation, really helped me understand more than I already thought.
Hey man thought i would get in here early just to say you should check out injury reserve either floss or drive it like its stolen both really good projects keep up the grind man peace
SUPER DOPE REACTION
SUPER DOPE VIEWER
I just want to say I thank you for sharing your reaction with SPEAKERS. because watch these other CZcamsrs use there phone or computer speakers😑 it drives me insane.
"Mah's Joint" was beautiful. I literally cried.
I feel you
i don’t get it though i love jon but there’s only 2 minutes of singing and then the other 6 is just instruments
Barry Allen just like a picture can speak 1000 words, so can instruments. Especially with context
I almost cry every time I hear stupid deep
After that making of video i cry even harder
Really Really nice reaction, you reacted , not as others that just stare and say nothing
So hard not to react with a project like this! Much love, fam
His music is legendary. Love the fact that he draws in from so many great types of artists and he has such a good brain for music.
You should listen to the album Currents by Tame Impala. Beautiful psychedelic rock album. If you're into that. The synths that hold in the album is very astonishing. Btw, love your very interactive reviews, especially when you have a music production background it's a very interesting feat for tackling on reviews which I consider a breathe of fresh air in the music reaction world. I too want to aspire to become a producer/engineer myself. Anyways, keep up the good work, you're drive and dedication to this channel is very formidable. Have a great day.
Thank you, you too! Subs like you make this worth it ✊🏼✊🏼
Currents is amazing
@@DougAraujo Definitely do currents
Doug Araujo do CURRENTS MAN!
👌
i see a lot of people complaining that there is a lack of theme like on the human condition
1. it’s a separate project, he might not have wanted to repeat the last
2.the theme is in the production. he’s Bringing music of the future to genres of the present and past. nexf time you listen, search for the genre he’s using at the core of each song and then find future sounds he is “teaching or learning” for music of the future at Glory Sound Prep. i personally wish it had a lyrical theme to go along with the musical one but i’m a diehard fan who’s gone over the album line by line and haven’t found one. the only theme i’ve found is in the music itself
There’s definitely a theme lyrically about the dangers of fame on lots of the tracks on here. The need for family, time away, and lack of a major spotlight always shining on you too
Doug Araujo i meant an overall theme like the human condition, the theme being “the emotions we all feel as humans” but yes i agree, those themes are all definitely out there
The production on Adult Swim is beautiful but I feel like that “secret” 3rd beat is another joint with JonxLogic.👀👀👀
21:32 that's exactly what I thought
Same
YES YESYESYWS
Enjoy the video 😂
You should react to Amen by Rich Brian!
In JT the kick drum is actually on the beats 2 and 4 which is amazing!!!
Surely we will get a reaction to NF Perception or therapy session
Not a fan of reaction videos in general... BUT this is the best one on glory sound prep for sure 👍🏻 u actually know what you’re talking about
Thank you! I’m glad you enjoyed the video ✊🏼
Doug Araujo how do you think this album compares to human condition? It’s gonna be hard even for Jon to beat that album as a whole... but I’m thinking this one might get there over time.. What do you think?
I think it’s a little soon to tell, i’d like to give it a couple more listens, but i do think it has the potential to be as impactful and successful as THC. This is more mature, and overall more on the mellow side of things whereas THC has songs like 80’s films, Overwhelming, Woke the f up, etc. i think it’s a nice change of pace
Doug Araujo I agree bro. Both albums had the same initial impact on me though.. so I will be interested to see if it sticks over time like THC. Production aside, how he made a whole picture out of bits and pieces in each song of THC is a feat that will be hard to top...
Yeah what he did with THC was incredible. Every note on that album was carefully planned to the point where they were able to make Hand of God as a medley of a bunch of the songs.
I just realized that in cautionary tales Will Smith is singing omg jon i love you
Genius bamboozled all of us
You put me on to Jon Bellion in one of your brockhampton vids
Hope you’re enjoying his music! Man’s crazy talented
Doug Araujo ye I love watching the behind the scenes vids and seeing his whole process, definitely his calling
His behind the scenes vids are what made me fall in love with his music. So much passion and raw talent
Fav album of 2018; background singer is JD McCracy aka Young Simba from The Lion King (Live Action) 🦁👑
BLU - GOOD TO BE HOME please
4:47 I see what you did there
But when GSP came out . It’s number one for sure 🤘
I’m at the point, where even hearing about people praising Jon get’s me hyped up 😂
Same!
AJR - The Click
I knew that he got married, he told my father who golfs with his father, and I knew it when he just freshly got married, I know him personally, he's an awesome person, he actually hasn't changed from the crown of a king
Dude it’d be amazing if he saw the video lol i tweeted it and tagged him, travis, keyz, a bunch of them and Travis liked it. I’d just like for him to see how much i admire his stuff. So dope that you guys know each other!
@@DougAraujo his father, bill bellion runs a furniture shop, and owns a buisiness, that my father is trying to be a partner of, and eventually own, but my father is a very nice and sociable person and when he went to this furniture shop they talked about a common interest, golf (most likely, I wasn't there) and they made friends, because off my father's natural ability to do that
That’s so sick!
the song "the monsters" from 2013 is produced by Jon Bellion. he was in a taxi one day, (this was after he produced the song) and his phone just went crazy, and it was from the song
czcams.com/video/EHkozMIXZ8w/video.html
Jon bellion has produced countless songs, look into it
Actually, he helped write the hook for the Monster. No production credits for him. Still, very impressive to write with Eminem and Rihanna. He’s produced for a looot of major artists too. Dude’s insanely talented
were you on lyrics genius as you listened to this? I'm one of the guys that annotated the album and i noticed your word-choice! mad respect if i'm right lol
Yes! I always follow along on genius because i find it tough to analyze lyrics as well as the production if i’m not reading along.
@Doug Araujo that's a really good practice; one thing i normally dislike about reaction videos for tracks is that the lyrical value of a song is normally not given the attention it most definitely deserves! I really respect that you're covering all the bases to give a quality hot take on this stuff! thank you
I said that same thing for that beat he used for like 5 seconds on Adult Swim hahahaha he shoulda used it! 🤙🏼
Sounded so awesome, but i ended up preferring the one he DID use lol
did jon bellion go to greece for a while? i follow him on socials but idr him posting anything
I don’t think so, why?
The Greece thing I'm pretty sure is a play on words with how John Travolta was in Grease
Doug Araujo it might just be me but i thought i heard a lot of greece references, I know that in JT it's a play on words because of grease and John Travolta but does he not reference greece in other songs?
Yeah, someone posted on Twitter that they met him in Santorini. He kept it quiet from socials
Harrison Ray I KNEW IT
Bro Jon Bellion's music does something to people
Changed my life man
@@DougAraujo great video, I subscribed and look forward to more content
Where you at pixar???
Jaden Phan honestly tho 😂
SEARCH up Illmind’s Jon Bellion leaked stream. There was a song unfinished in it that had him and sounded veery Pixar.
Came from the post in you might be a Jon bellion fan if....
Dope! I was hoping that post would draw some ppl. I want Jon Bellion fans to appreciate this with me hahaha
As much as i wanted to keep watching this video, I had to stop and go listen to the album for the 1000th time because i was getting too hyped lol
😂😂😂 i don’t blame you
I totally appreciate your comments. Well thought out, and musically charged! Thank you! However, I would disagree with some of the things you say near minute 11 of the video. Jon’s production quality and ability to creat aesthetically pleasing and unique beats is unmatched but his lyrics are. If you compare him to the great producers and artists who craft their music, I truly believe Jon is in his own league. But as a rapper and lyricist, compare him to the greats; 2Pac, Kendrick, etc... he doesn’t touch their league in that respect. While his music might be more advanced and well produced, idk about flow and lyricism. Thoughts?
Not that it was bad haha. Lyrics are still really good! They just definitely is better out there in that respect
In my opinion, of course
What i like about Jon’s verses are how well delivered they always are, from the way he speaks, to the clever punchlines, the witty allusions to pop culture, the alliteration, i wouldn’t say he’s unmatched but i also wouldn’t say he’s out of his league when it comes to rapping alongside someone like J. Cole for example. Still though, i see where you’re coming from!
@@DougAraujo I dig his lyrics, don't get me wrong! His ability to create intricate beats and produce unique sounds, is truly unparalleled. But I would say his lyrics are his weak point. Again, not that they're bad, but they just don't compare to his production or vocal abilities.
I feel you ✊🏼✊🏼
AJR vs Jon Bellion
YouYouYou!!!
AJR are the cheap rip off version, where’s the comparison?
@@whosthatpanda7935 Thanks you for your vote
I’ve never heard of AJR
@@DougAraujo aww man They are in the same sub genre of production and sound. Would love to see them go head to head on your channel
definitely Bellion 150%
I think you should check Eden if you like jon bellion, they are very diffirent but somewhat not
FlexiFuel I love eden
AOTY my ass
It’s AOTY. Nothing this year has come close to this for me.
Doug Araujo this album is bland. Jon Bellion’s fanbase puts him on a pedestal and thinks he’s a genius with nothing to back it up. just because he does everything himself doesn’t mean it’s done well.
No one made the argument that it’s done well just because he does everything himself, and that’s most likely due to the fact the he DOESN’T do everything himself. Ppl call him a genius because they feel he HAS backed it up. It’s cool that you feel the album’s bland bruh, but not everyone thinks like you, and the majority of the ppl that i’ve seen in the comments really enjoyed it
Jon's production is impeccable, but I always find his lyrics are too corny or surface level for me to get into.
Sounded like Disney movie music to me... AJR is better but I'll pluck a few songs off this
Who in the world is AJR?
@@DougAraujo I've heard a good amount of mashups and read enough comments to know that they soind EXTREMELY similar. But people are saying that AJR is just a Jon ripoff. I don't care really. I haven't heard an AJR album because I prefer Jon.
They're not but sure thing buddy
AJR - The Click
As a first time listener, I wasn’t too impressed with the album. It got tedious at points, and some songs dragged on, and this was worsened by the repetition and lack of verses on many tracks. Id give it a 7.7/10.
Seems fair
