[@sNIXerBars2009]

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

[@manteazure]

The talent he shows off...immaculate

[@Push_upsforlikes]

so good - and such a cool surprise too. he did a great job with that. and even shouted out the dog bean!

[@Ryusirius]

This dude can bring back that old school cd single. Where you have 4 different verisons of 1 song. 1. Original 2. r and b 3. Radio verison. 4. Gospel. Lmao

[@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.

[@MkPlayz-df8du]

Not only does he know how sing and rap he could do a little bit of dancing too 😂🔥🔥

[@MonteBaccFR]

After coming back to this video every day since it has dropped, i can confirm to YOU, Genius, that this is easily the gewatest Open Mic performance ever and NOBODY will ever come close UNLESS yall put this man on another Open Mic. THIS THE ONE!!!
