Jon has been a dope rapper though, he killed his verse on 24 Freestyle ft Logic, QuEST, and Castro.

QuEst took over tho

[@OhhKevy]

Real shit

[@justicereloba4660]

That was too slept on tbh

[@traeboo538]

Exactly there needs to be a Ratt Pack cypher every other dope crew has one

[@_MartinDahlin]

He actually wrote the hook for Eminem's song "The Monster". Nice to see him get some sun himself

[@roxxstar19]

that's how I found out about him

[@luraps2217]

+Tasty wrote

[@rookie713]

+Elvis Martinez he's right. He co-wrote it because he is not the only one who came up with the hook. It was Jon Bellion and Bebe Rexha

[@vildmer]

Also trumpets - jason derulo

[@AN-filmandmusic]

Ville Lindberg he made the whole song and sold it to derulo

[@ImJacobCubby]

Love how he turned his lyrics into a rap on the spot that is actual passion and skill!

These were already rap verses.

[@nexxtlevel7228]

not underrated, undiscovered, and he wants to stay undiscovered.

fuckin crazy.. never heard of this cat before

[@AaronSmithDrums]

check him out man. this shit comes too natural for him. he isn't known for his raps more so just his music in general but he can throw down bars when he needs to bruh which definitely helped him here on Sway

[@MariaMarcanoo]

I LOVE HIM & IF YOU AREN'T OBSESSED THEN YOU SHOULD BE

[@magichistory3386]

Agreed

[@producedbyFrank]

You'd be surprised as to the amount of people that don't know why artists come on to shows and don't spit "off the top" and spit a pre written track. Let me tell you why. They have an opportunity to come on a show and promote themselves, and album, mix tape, etc. So why wouldn't you use this opportunity to spit something great, usually something pre written opposed to a freestyle. So when I see negative comments about freestyle vs pre written it kinda irks me. I personally don't care if an artist can freestyle or not, if i like what they spit i will most likely check them out. Also judging an artist over how well he/she can free style is quite dumb.

[@joshdicapua154]

I agree im not buying an album full of freestyles, so im not assuming there songs are gonna be like a freestyle anyway

[@bennejame7854]

Right? And if you know you're not the best freestyler why would you risk trying it and fucking up?

[@Khead23]

That's why artists have written bars prepared strictly for opportunities to "go off the top" or just rip some beats for promotional purpose. This dude straight up spit lyrics from his releases album!!! Gotta have lyrics in the bag for these purposes...

[@donezo116]

exactly I agree 100%

[@prod.byfarhan4775]

I mean he was raw in 24 freestyle, "dont let this pop singer take you back to the basement" 🔥 Not just a singer

[@sharkyplays2576]

2:27 spits the hardest bar I’ve ever heard, gave me the goosebumps wow.

[@TTV.krypticlogik]

Broooo way too fire and real

[@d.dubyuh]

I completely agree! The hardest hitting line we will ever hear imo

[@SteelersLakersFan]

This is a verse from his album, fire. The Human Condition is definitely FIRE Album of the Year in my personal opinion. Better than or just as good as Views.

[@kellywright1489]

For everyone saying it's a written, of course it is! Replay the video and you'll see the part right before the 5 fingers of death where Sway literally asks Jon to rap his "New York Soul Pt. 2" over the 5 fingers of death because he likes the song so much. Sway literally asked him to do it lol Yall gotta listen yall. Either way, I agree. I would have preferred to see what he could have done with a new written, or non-written freestyle. I wonder why Sway gave him an exception. I think he would have done fine with freestyling.

[@easymoneykevo]

First time I've heard him rap, and now I'm a big fan. 🙏🏾
