"I' trying to figure this out, but my god I'm so human" And two years later we get "Human". Freaking genius.

[@imarih8896]

I really hope that is where he got the inspiration for Human.

[@isaiah3894]

Adam Megella he's been trying so hard to figure it out so he just got sick of being human

[@TJLoncar]

Then since he was sick of being human. He is now a robot (iRobot)

[@aubreybraun2636]

“once you see the genius it’s intimidating isn’t it...?” SHOOOOOOOK

[@sleystad872]

then we got The Human Condition

[@justinescalona]

JESUS IVE WATCHED ALL OF THESE AND MAN YOU'RE SO GOOD

[@HannaRender]

PlayTheGameFilms He blows my mind. Ahhhhgagrwauivbaeba SO. GOOD.

[@kevinaubrey9060]

+PlayTheGameFilms lmao you're everywhere on these vids. It's all I've been watching lately! (Of course along with Daily Docs)

[@joshuabetthauser4303]

no way you're escalona, the FAZE escalona

[@mcflei1822]

I'm surprised this isn't tip comment

[@flapjack489]

"The sound changed on me... Imma kill somebody."

[@autibug]

Kyran Gostelow Me when a small inconvenience happens

[@reduke]

as a music producer, i can 100% relate with jon here

[@jailbreakjake123]

Somebody needs to write a book/movie about this man.

[@ikram2006]

jake honschopp they released a documentary

[@gabrielacruz3218]

link, please?

[@lassi372]

ikram !?

[@Randomiester]

link😢

[@nicolasandrews967]

I very much agree with you

[@ChrisplussTina96]

"the sound fucking changed on me... I'm gonna kill somebody." sounds just like me when something goes mildly wrong 😂

[@khaleciaspivey9097]

shut your bitch ass up

[@drakeanton2000]

The Mighty Reds 2.2

[@amayamartin715]

Lmao same 😂😂

[@autibug]

ChrisplussTina96 ME

[@NilaktheProphet]

That really does suck though. Cuz usually can't just undo a change like that, so you've gotta go through every sound in the library until you find it again.

[@thedilfofwallstreet5385]

The way he pulls the sounds together..this man is a genius and a legend.

[@billbobbag9482]

I'm ashamed at myself for not finding this 3 years ago

[@NilaktheProphet]

+Vallross IKR!!! Watching him develop these songs makes me love them even more.

[@cadegio]

Me too!!

[@yaraemadabunemeh8612]

Me too.

[@meza917]

ha i did in 2013 :p its ok you still kinda early

[@tomasfong4096]

4 years ago for me

[@nicka2702]

What a well thought out message. His songwriting ability is probably in the top five if not the best for his generation.

[@xander7099]

I'm glad I'm not the only person who gets oddly involved in my music and get excited when my ideas come together. music is the best

[@faisalrahman2651]

Did you put any music out brother??

[@babyjlc]

like dude if i was in that room, I'd be way more excited than a head nod. dude's genius!

[@terrellhayes590]

THANK YOU!!!!!! IKR

[@Freckels_24]

Facts

[@ultimategamer765]

I know I would be too but imagine them probably seeing this their whole life so they’re use to it but we only get 10 min!!

[@anise2233]

I love how he gets so passionate about his work and starts smiling cause he gets excited about something. Its extremely cute and inspiring. :)

[@Ozone416]

This guy is so passionate about the music he makes. Such a talented musician.

[@joshsantill]

His boys really don't care about his projects lmao

[@favoureboh1686]

Frankhie Jay 😅😄😅 true

[@nicolasandrews967]

@Frankhie Muthumbi dude, that's a good wayof putting it

[@stephanielewis6606]

I love all the behind the scenes stuff he does.. he's like a legit fan of just.. music.. love it!

[@annabeltxn]

i would kill to see him in the studio just doing his own thing. he's so passionate about the music and it's so inspiring just to watch the bits and pieces of his entire process going into producing a dope ass song.

[@faisalrahman2651]

Me too omggg ugh 🥺🥺

[@darrendsilva742]

You know he's gonna make a banger when he takes his glasses off.

[@taiwo2729]

Such melody ❤❤❤

[@KasonWhitsell]

I love this. And in his next album he starts with munny rite and ends with luxury. He constantly speaks about the struggle of having money and remaining humble. It’s so human

[@TheSwaggeroni]

Jon Bellion is a musical genius.

[@KingCollinTN]

Watching his making of videos is so cool, bc then after your done hearing each individual sound being made and then you go listen to the song again, you can hear everything like Jon hears it. All these little pieces that fit together to make a masterpiece which is his music.

[@AnonComic]

The best "The making of" video I've ever seen and the ending was so deep dude love it. Keep it up man!

[@AN-filmandmusic]

All the Making Ofs are amazing

[@jragonjewel5745]

I need to know, how much coffee does this man survive off of?! Or is it all just pure undiluted energy?!

[@ericpierce6127]

It’s ADHD

[@42phant0m]

Amphetamine probably hehe

[@42phant0m]

Or adhd idk

[@AN-filmandmusic]

ATH Young Phantom he has ADHD?

[@marykatebarger8778]

I thought 7:45 was a girl in the song omg. Jon bellion is amazing

[@NilaktheProphet]

SAME

[@b1ackbob]

There is no difference in his voice when he sings live and on his mastered videos and audios. #talent.

[@SuperParkour3]

The way he put all these sounds together...this man is a fucking legend, love his music

[@mobomba4827]

This man just Change my hole life God blessed this man with some great talent

[@koolasssify]

this man never falls short from genius. ever.

[@kaylaoster6956]

The things he said at the end, made me really love him

[@kiranbawa]

this man is a gift from God no doubt

[@christiansantillanes]

The 6 people that disliked this have no hearts.

[@lordbarnie7936]

Chris Santillanes lmaoooooo you right buddy

[@TheMstwntdLMSV123]

They have ungreatful eyes

[@ThatdudeBrax]

Ahh yes back when Jon had the man bun

[@austinhamilton9759]

+BraxTheCreator top knot* not man bun, top knot..

[@MashburyGames]

ThatdudeBraxford bin bag*

[@alexandriaking8544]

ThatdudeBraxford I miss those days

[@IplayonwII]

In every single one of the making videos i see the guys in the back looking like they don't give a fuck shoot if i was there i would try to help you what sounds to put in your song! Your fucking amazing

[@amyprice4880]

Yeah they don't deserve to be there, and Jon Bellion doesn't need help haha jk

[@Chanchopapi]

+ReuploadFTL They're probably just friends, not music heads, people to help out with supplies or yes men. And I'm not sure Jon really needs, or wants people to help him with sounds, unless he goes out his way to bring them out for the project. (Like you've seen in the other videos, with keys, Audra Mae, and more) It's no disrespect, just doesn't really make sense to have so many cooks in the kitchen anyway. I could be wrong though.

[@austinmegusta]

He and logic need to do a song together. I know he had a very small feature with logic. They have a very similar style when it comes to making music

[@bransonfry8765]

+Austin MeGusta He's on Welcome to Forever by Logic

[@austinmegusta]

+Branson Fry I said small feature. He said like 2 lines. We need him to do the chorus and maybe even a verse

[@gabrielpuleo7966]

+Austin MeGusta listen to when the lions come I believe logic is in that and also 24 freestyle

[@bransonfry8765]

+gabriel puleo that too, they all have an equal amount of time in that

[@basicname299]

When the lions come

[@adilenemartinez5550]

OMG I thought 7:53 was a instrument or something OMGGGGGGG

[@moramathetse]

all i can say is, Geniusssssssss

[@amaribrown3752]

That swing is crazy, you can tell he's influenced by Timbo

[@CastleOfVariety]

He's more influenced by J Dilla and Pharrell than Timbo but it's understandable defo where you're getting Timbaland from. He's very unique in his own right as well

[@NoThoughtAllFeels]

How does he come up with lyrics and melodies that just go in?!?! Legend

[@SickMusicForYou]

I love the behind the scenes videos. Awesome.

[@httydluv2008]

Clap clap clap clap so what? So clever.

[@SuperSlimShaady]

that ending hit me real hard

[@ikram2006]

PLEASE RELEASE AN ACOUSTIC VERSION.

[@flapjack489]

we need one

[@yaraemadabunemeh8612]

DUUUUUDE, my mind is blown by how amazing his thought process is and how much we think alike.

[@davidokon8394]

2024, who is still here😊

[@TheHerpDerping]

look at that talented boy rockin' that sokka hair

[@TGabrielle55]

ugh, he's such a legend. so slept on.

[@sarahelizabeth3398]

I seriously can’t get enough of this man.... I connect so much with your music! Seeing it put together makes me love you that much more!

[@kdoubleyou]

This is why i have so much respect for Jon Bellion. not only does he make his own music. he makes it relatable.

[@mikolajk.4992]

Is it just me or am i the only who thinks that the making of sounds even better than the song?

[@Pr0xy_xx]

Great study material for song writing🔥

[@voicetube]

As to what he said towards the end, really amazing stuff. My $.02: I would add that it's not bad to set goals - even lower or medium grade goals… yet going in with the idea of continually escalating your goals and enjoying THAT process… That ride. It's striking that balance between "Lower end life" of setting a lower goal, achieving it and resting on your laurels and being "happy" or "satisfied" end of story and on the other side of the spectrum, what he is saying… never finding his or her happiness because once one achieves a certain level, feeling compelled with a "must-have" of more (not necessarily a bad thing unless it's compulsive) and maybe even unhappy with the goal just met because one sees something bigger & can't see oneself as happy until reaching THAT level…and so on. The key to enjoying and playing the game of life would be to certainly enjoy the smaller destinations along the way but to enjoy, as well, the journey itself; To enjoy the process of setting goals, enjoy the process of achieving and celebrating those goals along the way, enjoying the process of setting new goals, enjoy the process of living life itself.

[@danabelle.david4]

This guy is so frikkin precious I will straight up cry😭❤️❤️

[@AN-filmandmusic]

A legend in the making in 2013 Fast forward to 2020 and he’s the best musical artist of the 21st Century, probably all time. Genius.

[@mania114]

Imagine how weird the world would be if Jon Bellion had a bad song.

[@blvnking]

I keep watching these years after year, brings me an excessive amount of happiness.

[@LowGHigh]

I would really love to hear a piano version of this song similar to how he played it at 1:47. That would be incredible.

[@Devinlxc13]

this man has a beautiful soul.

[@kotik8763]

I adore this song❤️❤️❤️. Thank you Jon for having a great talant 😍💕❤️ to create a wonderful music

[@katepettyjohn5145]

the man is without a doubt a creative genius, and watching his pure joy as he does what he loves gives me the biggest smile

[@betweenthewars4054]

I wonder how long it takes the other guys in the room to realize that they're just taking up space and air?

[@AN-filmandmusic]

Hahahahaha

[@lillian5353]

he looks so cute when hes so into the beat and hes dancing and bobbing like crazy💓💓💓💓

[@emmahintz8265]

the best way to listen to his music is watch these videos about how he made it before you listen to the actual full song it’s a religious experience trust me

[@jakeblueberry8898]

I love ungreatful eyes but imagine If he stuck to that feel that he had when he was harmonizing to the piano at first. It reminds me to tangled webs he dropped a while ago

[@helenaj777]

When he was talking for the last minute and a half I tried to find a lie, but I couldn't. It was all truth. Every. Damn. Word.

[@bricoral9491]

Jon: the sound fing changed on me....ima kill somebody Me:......umm

[@uhneiceuh]

What's amazing is that he doesn't know how to read music but he can make music like it's nobody's business, cause it isn't 💀

[@kensington323]

Jon - you make me feel so incredibly close to G-d. I have such a strong spiritual connection to you and your music.

[@johnringolll4517]

logic Tech N9ne Machine Gun Kelly that would be a dope collab

[@haddadi10]

Takes a whole lot of talent to not only come up with lyrics like that but also produce like no other

[@yeelexic]

Jon thanks for inspiring me, man I don't even know what to say, your creativity is mind blowing.

[@joshuabarrios7496]

You are a fucking mastermind

[@liamgreen2761]

That bling doe

[@wilson47cody]

I always come back to these videos when I need to spark my creativity. Such an inspiration.

[@WavyXen]

I admire the work he puts in but I love his acoustic versions more than anything

[@johngreen-cc6zk]

Love watching this dude create art!!! He’s so passionate, you can see the excitement and joy on his face while he is coming up with ideas and laying em down! Watching the record come to life, it’s really cool to watch process!!!

[@sickmcbeatsyo6669]

Like I’ve been making music for a while but never really record anything properly and watching Jon do this raw fucking work is just so inspiring and really makes me wanna do some actual recordings. Anyone else feel this?

[@NoLimiteddie]

[@John-ju4me]

[@grantgiles6386]

When Jon takes off the glasses you know he’s got the whole rest of the song thought up

[@antihero5518]

Great fucking energy. Dude catches vibe right

[@cherylt6926]

[@seanwilliams_31]

"I said 'Once I...' my whole life" I felt that

[@henrydoane2965]

I would give my right arm to spend an hour in the studio with this dude. what a lengend.

[@th.nd.r]

"I've said 'once I' my entire life" is such a powerful line

[@tmehtyrannosaurus]

[@actuallyhard315]
