Today’s guest is one of the most original minds in modern music—a genre-defying powerhouse who returns to this podcast six years after his first unforgettable visit. Hailing from Long Island, this producer, performer, and lyrical architect has built a sonic universe entirely his own. He’s the mastermind behind cinematic pop records that blur the line between the underground and the mainstream, with a resume that spans from crafting platinum hits for chart-toppers to delivering soul-baring solo projects that redefine authenticity. Now a father of three, his creativity has only deepened, as he balances vulnerability and virtuosity with relentless hustle. He’s not just a hitmaker—he’s a visionary, a builder, and a storyteller for a generation that craves depth. And the writer is… Jon Bellion

This episode is a masterclass in staying true to your creative voice.

Jon breaks down the moments that shaped his art, his mindset, and his mission. From songwriting and fatherhood to working with Bieber and building a life around meaning — this is a blueprint for making creative work that lasts
One of the most personal, unfiltered interviews he’s ever done.
