The Human Condition is riddled with Auto-Tune and doesn’t allow Bellion’s artistic talent to properly shine. The album is anything but sincere, instead relying heavily on digital elements when it shouldn’t, as Bellion already has a good voice. Throughout the album, Bellion’s voice is overwhelmed by a plethora of sounds and beats that attempt to replicate sonic elements in current pop music.
Many tracks were edited with vocal compression and Auto-Tune. Bellion presents deeper messages in tracks such as “Weight of the World” and “New York Soul Pt ii.” Both contain powerful and thought-provoking lyrics that address personal issues from family struggle to career aspirations.Īlthough Bellion produces multiple hits with interesting narratives like “80’s Films,” The Human Condition struggles with the problem of over-production. Love songs like “Overwhelming” and “Guillotine” feature memorable choruses that listeners will be able to sing along to. The album is a compilation of tracks that comment on the modern human story, ranging from adolescent romance to newfound fame. His career quickly launched from there, co-writing the hit song “Trumpets” with Jason Derulo, collaborating with Zedd and starting his solo career with The Human Condition. He is best known for writing the song “The Monster,” which was featured on Eminem’s Marshall Mathers LP 2 in 2013 and won a Grammy for Best Rap/Sung Collaboration in 2015. Long Island native Jon Bellion released his debut album The Human Condition on Friday, a pop album featuring 14 songs that tell stories of life, love and everything in between.
