grandson: RELEASING MY FIRST ALBUM IN A PANDEMIC (DOAO DIARY)

[@rene6463]

I remember on release day being in my online class and playing this on blast on my tv. Crazy to think that was just a year ago. Every song was and is great.

[@dhepth]

Dear grandson, From the top of our heart: Thank you. You saved a lot of life in the most confusing time. We love you. Please never stop making art. Sincerely, grandkids.

[@Qyrun]

DOAO marks a great milestone in your career and i cant put it into words how fucking happy i am for you. You are the only artist were i enjoy every single song. seriously, you never dropped a bad song in my opinion. and i strongly believe that this continues like that for a while. Lets see what 2022 has for you to offer.

[@alxx_smf]

I would kill to relive the release party it was so great, emotional, chaotic and heartwarming. So proud of you, thank you for everything ✖️✖️

[@myellatorres2110]

[@robinsalario4372]

this was so much fun. another fan bought a ticket for me because i don`t have a credit card. i am in europe. i will never forget that.

[@mathouwll]

DOAO is one of those albums I come back to listen to pretty regularly since it came out, because in addition of being such a masterpiece, it helps me in many ways. I'm so proud of Jordan and this video warms my heart a lot Thank you so much grandson, I hope you know you're an amazing human being

[@memeguy0116]

[@callmemad4515]

We (you) Did It!!! I am honestly ashamed of myself for not having you guys in my top 0.000-something-% for my Spotify wrapped AGAIN. But i will not ~Apologise~ Because I’m already FALLING for this album, and WATER you believe it or not, your vibe is so natural to me it’s in my BLOOD. Please keep on being PEACH-y and RAIN like the king you are, grandson. I hope my BEST FRIENDS learn to appreciate your music too, but they’re all into k-pop so.. I guess I’m in over my head on that one…ha… I know, I should probably take a chill pill. But I’m just so HAPPY for you dude- Okay I’m gonna stop now before the grandkids decide to put me under. Who am I kidding? Im a lost cause. Okay, I might be doing your music dirty with all of these puns but I’d rather drop dead then not do your creative song titles justice- Im going to start a war in the comment section, aren’t I?They’re probably gonna destroy me and bury me face down so I’d appreciate your thoughts & prayers. Please, I dont wanna die young. (Srsly tho. Your music is fire, I can’t wait for you to set this world ablaze with this new album dude. Death of an Optimist is gonna be LIT)

[@RunnerOG]

Bro Im so sad I wasnt into your music sooner. I wasn't here for release of DOAO 😭 Im glad I listen to your stuff now though, you've got some of my favorite shit out there because of just how different it is. Keep going on man, love your shit and cant wait to be on this train for the tracks ahead my guy ✖✖

[@ga1z0]

This is definitely one of my favorite album I love how your going back to it :)

So happy to have a been a fan for 4 years now so proud of how far you've come

[@majestikmarii7291]

Such an incredible album, I desperately need a Hamilton/Green Day musical of this album. I’d buy tickets so fast. Also if anyone could make songs with everyday/kitchen appliances, _and_ do it well, it would be you

[@chickpea389]

Thank you for giving us this masterpiece of an album ❤️

[@кто-ц6ы]

Jordan. Thank you so much for this video. Is it so cozy, so homely?? You are so wonderful, cute and interesting from the outside The atmosphere of this video is INDESCRIBABLE. It was as if I had re - entered that era and .. I even started crying. I have no words but dreams of great gratitude. You're a genius !!! I love you very much and.. I wish you happiness and a great future. If you read the comments, please smile :) It's nice to know that you're pleased, hee hee!!

[@CoffeeKadachi]

Congrats and thank you for all you do!!! Death of an Optimist came out during a time where we all felt extremely isolated and hurt but how much the world had changed and these songs helped us feel seen. Like we weren’t alone. Like we weren’t broken for feeling like everything was different, because it was and it fucking sucked. Thank you Jordan. I remember when Best Friends came out and I was excited to have found a new kick ass smaller artist to listen to. You’ve grown so much and helped us all along the way. Grandkids for life
