Fun fact about Adult Swim: The guy who voiced the “Welcome to Glory Sound Prep” and the other blurbs, Chris Sabat, also voiced Piccolo in Dragon Ball Z. In a way, Piccolo is technically part of the “GSP universe,” if you will, hence to the reference to the planet Namek(also a DBZ reference) in the opening line. Jon was a huge fan of the show as a kid, which explains why he wanted Chris on the track, and called it Adult Swim as well. And as a full-circle moment, Chris got Jon to voice a small character in the Dragon Ball Super: Broly movie. So yeah, Jon Bellion is a bonafide nerd.

So, the woman you hear in any of these tracks is Jon's sister. Who is a nurse for her day job. Insanely talented woman.

I love how much you loved Mah’s Joint. which is about his grandmother that unfortunately passed away due to alzheimers. lyrics like “whats the point of making memories when you cant even find them when you’re 70” hit super hard when u know this. and his mom had to take care of her “your mother was a mother to her mom”

Mah joint is basically a song for his mom cuz if I remember correctly she had Alzheimers. You need to see his making of glory sound prep. Bro got his friends together and they got drunk and recorded that “la la la la” part that sounds unedited.

love the video. Something I keep finding funny is everything you dislike initially or have an issue with ironically has a lot of layers lyrically to them, and Jon does focus spritually in his own way

22:15 I think AJR uses trumpets too playfully rather than as a serious melodic instrument. but i guess different artists + different methods = different sounds.... AJR could genuinely benefit from doing an entirly serious album one day rather than their usual: "hey, here's a million sounds and topics that were trying to get you to relate to all at once!".

Jon Travolta - jon bellion, travis mendes (jon’s best friend/vocalist) and ric volta (producer). I take it as an ode to the three guys. I thought it was corny until i realized it was more than just growing up and changing like travolta

why is everything you have to say so negatively spun. You'll say something like "oh I like this but it's stupid" or "I really liked this song but this is really bad and is weird" like bro, maybe just sit and enjoy and stop looking for issues, it's a proven thing that most people don't enjoy songs properly until they've heard it multiple times at least as it takes us knowing the song to truly enjoy them.
