GRAMMY – From the outside looking in, it would seem like the past seven years have been the best of Jon Bellion‘s life. Along with co-writing/producing hits by the likes of Miley Cyrus, Jungkook, Katy Perry, Maroon 5, and Selena Gomez — and earning four GRAMMY nominations for his work with Jon Batiste, Justin Bieber, and Lizzo — he became a father to three boys. But it was also the singer/songwriter/producer’s most treacherous stretch.

Since releasing his last album, Glory Sound Prep, in November 2018, Bellion has been fighting to buy himself out of his Live Nation contract and reclaim his masters. For a time, he relinquished any hope of resuming his solo career and even considered walking away from music altogether.
