“Jon Bellion’s love for pop melody and thoughtful lyricism is palpable on the songs he has meticulously written, recorded, and self-produced for his debut album The Human Condition, with the LP being released in the UK on May 5th 2017 via Virgin/EMI. The album reflects Bellion’s love for hip-hop, especially innovative artist-musician-producers like J Dilla, Kanye West, Pharrell Williams, and Timbaland.

Bellion has built a sizeable grassroots fan base as an artist all on his own over the past few years, releasing three albums of original songs free on the Internet, including 2014’s The Definition, and completing two sold-out national headlining tours of the U.S. “All Time Low” led Bellion to be named Spotify’s Emerge artist of 2014 and the song topped Billboard’s Emerging Artists chart. Recently, Bellion was featured on Zedd’s “”Beautiful Now”” and B.o.B’s “”Violence.”

Now Bellion is gearing up for the UK release of The Human Condition, which he hopes will lead even more fans of well-crafted, genre-defying music to his message. “I want to inspire people to just go create,” he says. “If someone hears my album or sees the cover and is impressed by the amount of time and creativity that went into it, maybe it will motivate them to go change the world. I might not change the world, but maybe I can influence someone who is going to one day. I just want to be a piece of the puzzle. Maybe I can be a catalyst for something positive.”
