[@julesishere7836]

I'm so happy he's getting the recognition he deserves, not only a great actor but also a really great and talented musician

[@BOT_JERRY]

Not really. He's mid. Stop simping

[@itzzelit3177]

​@@BOT_JERRY mid to you lmao. Other people like his music. Calm down.

[@BOT_JERRY]

@@itzzelit3177 just checked his music page. 227k subscriptions with less than 100k people viewing his videos . Yea. Mid to me. And everyone else. How about you calm down until he gets popular.

[@itzzelit3177]

@@BOT_JERRY clearly the people that listen to his music consistently enjoy it lmao. It's really not that hard to understand but, I wouldn't expect you to considering you broke out the sped class.

Omg fr I love Steve so much

[@heyitsgabriel6965]

Wait ? That’s not him ?

[@MrHalvarsson]

@@heyitsgabriel6965 it 100% is, u can do music and be an actor u know, lol.

[@SockiThePoser]

Bro Steve is my favorite character in the show besides Eddie, I literally had no idea it was him

[@AllysonBunyar]

It's honestly about damn time. Been listening to his music since 2019 and waiting for him to blow up as a musician.

[@leif1075]

Why does blowing up matter at all?

[@T.S_130]

​@@leif1075 I think it's because if they get more recognition, they get the fame and money they deserved. It depends on the artist tho, if they wanna do music for the sake of it or some other reason. But I get where you're coming from.

[@chosoistryinghisbest]

@@leif1075if an artist blows up, they get recognition. and soon immortalized in the public consciousness. were you just born today or something? naturally if you like something you want others to know about it as well and enjoy how good art feels together

[@thecamillarose9806]

Awesome

[@leif1075]

@T.S_130 whonsays anyone "deserves" or even want fame or.money..and a lot of really artists and the smartest ones aren't chasing fame especially..and only enough money to make ends meet.

[@ghost-carnage8964]

Bruh my mind is blown joe Keery is DJO that's awesome like I didn't know this lol

[@Paddy-dw8bj]

Same😂

[@gokuamvs4660]

Same lol.. I'm having an existential crisis now, like how did I not know this ..

[@atharvashintre]

I was today years old when I realised DJO is Joe Keery!!!!!

[@SizzlingVibe]

THE WAY I HAD NO IDEA THIS WAS JOE KEERY

[@EvilStranGer0]

Oii that's Steve Harrington

[@LiamXavierPonte]

steve from stranger things actually makes music? What the hell

[@a_sincere_mirrorball]

Bro completely ignored the fact that he has been in stranger things from session 1 to 4💀💀💀💀💀 Edit : and he will be in session 5🎉🎉🎉 Edit : Guys you are literally blowing up my notifications slow down bruh 💀💀💀

[@mondy8100]

Coz that's not important to his music career

[@skull_lee]

​@@mondy8100it would still matter,like not mentioning markiplier was a murderer(if he was) when starting his youtube channel

[@chupapi7592]

​@@skull_lee such a random analogy

[@ms.snowflake9619]

Ikr, actually I'm suprised😮

[@skull_lee]

@@chupapi7592 I didn't know what to think of so I went with that lol

[@chosoistryinghisbest]

its a really, really good song. its like the ultimate song for nostalgia. my life has changed so many times and I have continued to change so many times. but every so often, when i go to certain location or do something very specific, i get the memories of who i one was when I was last there.

[@rip_kms6970]

I remember being so surprised i didn’t know he made music i knew him from my favorite show stranger things

[@hmini5977]

He is also from Stranger Things

[@spxcxy]

yeah no shit sherlock

[@Polar_Bear_2007]

I have heard of stranger things and him playing the role of Steve there but I never actually watched the series but listening to his music truly makes me believe that he's a talented individual.

[@CakeInMyPockets]

he's a great actor in ST so he is pretty talented, Steve is definitely one of my fav characters

[@cawesomewhatever]

He is in so many other things too. He is in the newest season of Fargo, then has a few movies from a few years ago and I believe a newer movie that I don’t know if it’s out yet or still waiting to come out.

[@RodneyKamusiime2004]

Dude watch the series. Trust me. Specially now since you can binge all 4 seasons nonstop.

[@SwitchStation]

It's Steve from Dead by Daylight!

[@rip_kms6970]

Its originally from stranger things please tell me you know that

[@SwitchStation]

@@rip_kms6970 yes lol 😂

[@yukieris]

I also knew him from DBD 😭😭😭

[@user-ik7sz1pg6y]

He looks like the actor in the movie "Free Guy" with Ryan Reynolds.

it was fun watching his music blow up in the first couple weeks

[@lovablemonty]

whyd it go viral? album came out almost 2 years ago?

[@fourtwohundred]

@@lovablemontysomeone probably posted a TikTok with the sound and the algorithm boosted it, people liked the song and kept posting it everywhere. Usually how it works.

[@lovablemonty]

@@fourtwohundred ah yeah that makes sense, hell Mac Demarco had a resurgence the same way

[@fourtwohundred]

@@lovablemonty yep and all his music is great it’s a crazy phenomenon

[@n_-_-]

End of beginning is so melancholic, I cannot listen to it. It hurts! So good job on Joe Kerry! I hope he gets more success, he seems like a good dude.

[@shay2218]

DJO is amazing- all his songs are beautiful and some are just crazy fun -> see Château or Gloom for reference. 💜😋

This is magic. This song has been in my head all day, I've known it for a while. I wanted the name of the song but had no idea how to get it, I just hoped I would find it out. And this is the first video I see.

[@lovablemonty]

for real, the songs good, but there are way better songs off his first album

[@caffeinati]

and roddy thats been one of my favouirte songs for years

[@wanderer6638]

The fact that I finished the entirety of Stranger things just for this dude 💪

[@Jay-jj3gk]

Very tame impala and I love it

[@seanceknowles2911]

Yes, I’ve been a fan of there’s for years. And I am really into psychedelic rock and I was just browsing when I found Djo. Joe is so talented. I’m good with faces so when I saw him in Stranger things he became my favorite character from day one 😊

[@Shifty-Minty-Co]

Imagine steve dies at the end of s5 and this plays in the end credits

[@wreathe0110]

THAT’S FKING JOE KEERY?!! I love the song it’s literally played everywhere in my city.. It’s so good!

[@jaye4729]

I’ve been listening to his music for so long now! I’m so glad he’s becoming more popular! His music is great!

[@chickenjae3340]

I thought he just looks like joe keery, i didn't know it's the same person😭

[@spookysn]

The whole album and Djo's first album Twenty Twenty bangs!!!

[@LadyHannahGaGa]

That gave us nothing in terms of song meaning and origin. 🤦🏽‍♀️ That was his background for becoming a solo artist.

[@tatsamraipure2712]

you forgot about the fact that he is Steve Harrington

[@chenniemay5532]

So that's why every time I listen to the song It reminds me of STRANGER THINGS so much.

[@ghostz._9902]

That backsound, right? That makes me feel stranger things vibe

[@michaelperez965]

Its an amazing song

[@AlexanderOlding]

Genuinely a great musican and actor i would love to hang out with him and hear all his great stories

[@tiatunz9534]

Useful recap - had no idea. Ty 🙏

[@nikhileshkillada4217]

I love how we have basically accepted End of Beginning as the official theme song for The Bear. It fits perfectly.

I had no idea they were the same person!!! That’s crazy!!!

[@SomethingsWrongWithKai]

Bro I've been listening to Djo for like 3 years and I never knew it was Joe Keery 😭

[@JacobeKun]

I like how he wants us to discover him as a cast in stranger things ourselves instead of him letting us know hes in the series

[@sekai9906]

Omg I didn't know it was him !

[@scaredpotter4963]

'Roddy' is my favourite. Loved it since I heard it in 2021

Bro I didn’t know this dude was the creator of this song. That’s crazy lol. Good for him! He is a great actor on top of that too wow!

[@Naranjis]

Crazy how you didn't even mention anything about him being in Stranger Things or his actor career at least.

[@seanceknowles2911]

I think because this is about his musical talent. He’s more than just an actor. I knew of him before his acting so I’m always looking for more djo content.

[@Naranjis]

@@seanceknowles2911 sure but at least a little mention… it feels weird not to mention it, literally EVERYONE knows him from stranger things.

The vibe is compatible with anime Frieren: Beyond Journey's End 😢
