00:00 (swooshing)

00:02 - Yo, I'm Jaden.

00:12 Welcome to my mind massage.

00:15 I'm gonna take you on a sound journey

00:18 using some of my favorite things.

00:21 (chewing)

00:23 (chewing)

00:25 (slurping)

00:27 (slurping)

00:32 (rattling)

00:37 (swooshing)

00:43 This is Dr. Pepper.

00:47 (crunching)

00:51 (crunching)

00:53 (tapping)

00:55 Let's open it up.

01:01 (cracking)

01:04 I know that felt good.

01:10 Oh.

01:16 It's real good, brother.

01:21 (sizzling)

01:24 (knocking)

01:32 Let's have a sip.

01:33 (slurping)

01:37 Wow, funny enough, I'm from the South,

01:41 and Dr. Pepper's a really big thing in the South.

01:44 Born in Dallas, Texas, moved to Tennessee,

01:48 so both very Southern.

01:51 I think that the Southern charm and Southern kindness

01:55 is a very good tool to use in any industry that you're in.

02:00 So, next time you see someone,

02:03 maybe throw a thank you at 'em,

02:05 or a hello, sir, or sir, s, my lady.

02:09 (slurping)

02:12 Ah, and try some delicious Dr. Pepper.

02:15 I know I wanted to sing when I saw Never Say Never,

02:18 Justin Bieber's movie/documentary when I was like nine.

02:23 I thought we had similar traits as a child,

02:26 so I latched onto that pretty quickly,

02:29 and I fell in love with singing because of that.

02:31 When I knew I wanted to be a musician

02:33 was when I saw Juice WRLD, probably 10 years later,

02:37 at my first concert, and it was a euphoric moment.

02:42 (tapping)

02:45 (slurping)

02:47 Ah, I find a lot of musical inspiration

02:51 in the people around me,

02:54 not even just people that I look up to,

02:56 but like my roommate, one of my best friends,

03:01 one of my best friends that passed away,

03:03 they're very big musical inspirations for me

03:06 because they listen to artists that are very underground,

03:10 and I think artists who are very underground

03:13 have a lot more knowledge than people give them credit for

03:16 because they're basing their art off of the feeling,

03:19 not off of what works.

03:21 If I could describe my music

03:25 to someone who's never heard it,

03:27 first album, I feel like I sound like the 2020,

03:32 2021 version of like what pop music,

03:37 pop punk music would be.

03:38 Now, my second album,

03:40 I think I have a much more mature sound,

03:42 so I don't know what I would tell them.

03:44 I would just tell them to listen,

03:46 and then come back and let me know.

03:48 The inspiration behind my single "What The Hell"

03:51 actually came like two and a half years ago.

03:54 I made that song quite a bit ago,

03:58 and I really think that I've just (beep) up

04:01 so many times in my life,

04:03 it has kind of become a recurring issue.

04:06 At that time, it was a recurring issue,

04:08 and I wanted to let people know that I also know,

04:12 like, damn, what the hell did I do now?

04:15 But two years later,

04:17 I just wanted to put it out for my fans

04:19 'cause they really wanted it.

04:21 If I could work with any artist that are alive,

04:24 definitely Juice WRLD or X

04:29 'cause they were kind of the reason I started.

04:31 Elvis Presley, Frank Sinatra.

04:34 I love them.

04:36 I think they would love me.

04:38 (blowing)

04:41 Nice leather.

04:43 (blowing)

04:50 That felt transcendent.

05:07 (blowing)

05:09 It's like you're opening up to a new world.

05:11 (blowing)

05:13 What more could you ask for?

05:17 My most played song on my phone right now

05:21 would have to be "Wake Up" by Phreak.

05:25 He's a metal artist.

05:26 He's a really nice guy.

05:27 I burped.

05:29 Forgive me.

05:30 Sorry.

05:32 And if I had to listen to one genre of music

05:35 for the rest of my life, what would it be and why?

05:37 I think I'm choosing island music.

05:42 Like music from the Caribbean or, you know.

05:45 I've always found a certain attraction

05:51 towards island music and dancing.

05:53 I think that YG Marley's recent song,

05:56 "Praise Jah in the Moonlight" really sealed the deal for me.

05:59 So contrary to most people's opinion,

06:02 I think I would choose island music.

06:04 Like a little reggaeton, you know what I'm saying?

06:07 (tapping)

06:09 Any fictional character, really hard choice.

06:13 Either "Verb" from Phineas and Ferb,

06:17 'cause he never talks, he doesn't need to.

06:19 I feel like talking gets me in a lot of trouble.

06:22 Or, no, "Verb" is obviously the correct answer.

06:26 I'm gonna have to go with "Verb."

06:28 If I could have one super powerful entity, easy.

06:31 There's obviously one answer.

06:32 I'm choosing two.

06:34 Fly, the only correct answer, obviously.

06:38 No one will catch me, it's impossible.

06:42 Even people who teleport,

06:43 you can't just teleport in the air, you would fall.

06:45 I can fly, I can maneuver quite nicely, some would say.

06:50 If I could only eat one meal for the rest of my life,

06:53 I would probably have to say fried chicken.

07:02 My astrological sign here is Aquarius.

07:07 And I thought Aquarius was a water sign

07:11 because that makes a lot of sense,

07:13 but apparently it's not, it's an air sign.

07:16 I think I am a Leo rising.

07:20 No, I'm a Leo moon in a Taurus rising.

07:23 Every time I tell people that, they're like,

07:26 I don't really know what that means,

07:28 but all the girls out here in LA do, so.

07:31 (candy crunching)

07:34 (dramatic music)

07:37 These are grapes.

07:39 I wonder if you can hear.

07:43 (candy crunching)

07:49 Straight from heroin.

07:57 (candy crunching)

08:00 If I was on a desert island,

08:09 what three things would I bring?

08:10 A little squirted out, I'm sorry.

08:15 A boat, obviously.

08:19 Fuel.

08:20 And the Da Vinci code.

08:22 (heart beating)

08:26 (laughing)

08:28 I think that I would do well with

08:30 probably like a flying squirrel of sorts.

08:34 You know, something that could take care of itself.

08:38 Something easy.

08:39 If I could have any other career for a day,

08:41 what would it be and why?

08:43 I'd probably work at In-N-Out.

08:45 Every time you drive past the drive-thru,

08:47 they're just working so diligently, you know?

08:49 Very little chit-chat.

08:50 They're just in there to do their job.

08:52 Fresh food, fresh meats, fresh bread,

08:54 fresh potatoes.

08:55 It's a great place to live.

08:57 I didn't work.

08:58 I know this seems like I'm exaggerating,

09:00 but I think about it sometimes.

09:02 I'm like, there's just something so simple

09:05 about In-N-Out.

09:07 And they feel like a family, you know?

09:09 They feel like they care about each other,

09:10 but I guess we'll never know.

09:13 (air whooshing)

09:24 This is a daily prepare moisturizing lotion.

09:27 So daily means everyday.

09:29 Take this everyday.

09:30 (tapping)

09:33 (tapping)

09:40 (tapping)

09:46 Now we're gonna squirt.

09:53 (tapping)

09:55 Might've done a little too much.

09:58 (squirting)

10:00 (squirting)

10:02 (squirting)

10:04 (squirting)

10:07 (squirting)

10:09 (squirting)

10:12 (squirting)

10:14 (squirting)

10:16 (squirting)

10:19 (squirting)

10:21 (squirting)

10:23 You need to moisturize.

10:24 It's good for you guys.

10:26 No one likes a pasty dry skin.

10:29 If I could switch lives with anyone for one day,

10:32 who would it be?

10:33 Steve Irwin's son.

10:35 He's just carrying a legacy.

10:38 You know, I'd really like to be a part of that.

10:40 He seems to have a way with animals.

10:41 So, you know, I'd like to experience that side of the world.

10:45 Down Under.

10:48 My favorite way to spend a lazy Sunday.

10:54 You know, I wake up, I walk out my bedroom,

10:58 you know, I go into my roommate's room

11:00 and I just bug him for the nearest nicotine,

11:04 whether it be a cigarette or a vape, you know.

11:06 I hate to admit it, but it's very important to me.

11:11 I don't know, I really, if it's a lazy day,

11:13 then anything goes, you know.

11:15 So I like to lounge around, you know,

11:17 try to view outfits.

11:20 Though mainly I just, mainly me and my roommate

11:23 just make a bunch of music.

11:25 We like taking type beats off of YouTube

11:28 and making songs to them,

11:30 'cause no one ever uses type beats anymore

11:32 and they're awesome.

11:33 Best self-love advice?

11:34 Well, ladies and gentlemen,

11:36 I'm still trying to figure that one out.

11:38 No, I think that surrounding yourself

11:43 with people that love you more than you do,

11:46 even sometimes, is a great way to pull yourself

11:49 out of a rut that life puts you in, you know.

11:52 It's really hard to love yourself

11:54 when no one around you loves you either.

11:55 So that's what I would say.

11:58 Small circle, small circle of trust.

12:01 Thank you so much for coming to my mind massage.

12:06 Make sure to check out my next single,

12:11 "What the Hell" in my album, "When the Music Stops."

12:14 Coming this June, eat your grapes.

12:20 Dogs can't have grapes, don't give them grapes.

12:22 (electronic beeping)
