This is actually insane. Not all artists would craft a whole different rendition of their song just for a genius performance. This is what real dedication looks like, you can tell he has actual passion and isn’t doing this for the money. Edit: Don’t wanna be corny or nothing but thanks for all the likes y’all I genuinely appreciate it

[@canoncrockpot2687]

I love seeing how music performance is changing to be more connoisseur focused...like the mixture of genres and vibes. We have pop and jazz with Rae, Hiphop and classical/jazz with J.P, we have country and hiphop with Shaboozey and Post Malone. And it's all being done so WELL. Like the music nerd in me is LIVIIIIIIIING. And the gospel vibe to hip with JP dancing and then cursing 'f**k n**ga!' Was HILARIOUS

[@Theekingdompreneur]

He is anointed. If he was using his gifts and talents for God instead of the world he would by far be one of the best to do it!

[@garrettcobbs9240]

Naw bruh, he’s gifted. The anointing is COMPLETELY different and is specifically for people spiritually set apart for a purpose that God has. If he’s not using His gift for God, there is NO anointing on it.

I don’t know if anyone else peeped at the end but anyone with common sense know when someone says 5..6,.5..6 cut it means cut it off they looked at each other and kept playing he didn’t even get mad he vibed out let them get that off (pause) went with it then made sure they knew when to cut it offf next time and it’s still went with the vibe that’s tough
