I went to school with him. Was in his class for a year too. Was always artistically ahead of absolutely everyone in the whole school. Fantastic to witness his slow global rise what we all knew as teenagers
W mindset you are strong as fuck bro hope you enjoyed him im shaking in bed listening to this genius live for the first time. He’s just fucking brilliant
Jai Paul is my hero...I made it through my teen years in highschool with him in my ear. His an absolute amazing artist, truly one of the bredrins and I hope he gets everything he wants in this lifetime.
Hearing that 2013 leak changed my life. I was writing guitar based music at the time and was just getting into producing my own music and those sounds just blew me away and gave me so many of my own ideas on where I could take things. I really hope we get more music from him. He is a legend for sure.
We were so excited to see him last Sunday at Coachella, his set was packed! Everybody was waiting to see his greatness and he was just so incredible and emotional, we could tell he was very happy to be there and shocked at the same time because of everybody’s response we were all roaring for him. Thank you Jai Paul that was so special!!!
i can't believe this is going to happen. i am on edge since i first found out he was playing live for the first time. this man is one of the greatest artists of our time. its unbelievable!
@@srduncanbyu I'm going this weekend! But i did spoil myself and watch the set livestreamed with a bunch of the community on Discord. I thought it was incredible, emotional, euphoric, and human. The moments when he would just laugh, crack a smile, or show a state of shock felt so good to see given how many years in the making this set was. And oh my god hearing the crowd ROARING warmed my heart so much - I was tearing up during All Night. He sounded GREAT! I've been speculating that the stream was delayed so that it could maybe have some post-set mixing, but regardless hats off to the mixing team. I love how they were able to replicate that same stereo effect as heard in the streaming versions. The band all fuckin killed it. Fabi with the DYLHN performance.. AK doing magic to that funky lil guitar, Isaac was a machine, Rocco had the groove on lock from start to finish. Also holy fuck those songs still sound like they're from the future. Seeing the crowd lighting up during Mumbai gives me chills even just remembering it. i am SO EXCITED FOR SATURDAY!!!
I was privileged to be at the show last saturday, I've seen a handful of wonderful shows in my life but I have never ever experienced something like Jai Paul live, it was such a divine energy from start to end and it was the first crowd in years where I could barely see phones on stage, everyone was so in shock and processing what was going on, I was so overwhelmed by how amazing the show was I had to leave to my camping tent lol I didn´t want to hear anymore music I had enough. I got to witness a fenix rise from the ashes, one of the most special moments of my life
So happy he’s finally returning into the scene, saw him at Coachella and was blown away, felt like I was at a Jai Paul concert rather than Coachella, he deserves all the success, can’t wait for what future holds for him!
This video made me cry a little bit thinking about 2013-14 when i discovered him And those times and innocence How much music has changed for better and for worse How special things like Jai Paul are hard to finder now
It's like a withdrawal. I miss that high i got from discovering special music like this for myself. It's so different now. I feel like I'm chasing that high but i can't reach there.
Loved the video. Saw his set at Coachella and it was the highlight of my weekend. Despite everything that has happened to this man, he showed up with calm and powerful stage presence. He played almost all of his catalogue in a raw, but revamped way that showed what it could have been. Jai Paul is back and better than ever.
Love love love Jai Paul. When I saw his cameo in the show Atlanta I knew that he was getting ready for a public appearance. Big loves to Jai Paul the goat.
almost crying in joy after seeing this and a video of his coachella performance. his music has the power to change others perception of what is possible
Saw him live in London a couple of days ago (All Points East), absolutely amazing live setup. All the songs live gave me a whole new appreciation for them, like seriously, he's taken the leaked tracks and completely finished them and beyond. Massively urge any fans to see him live if you can, although be warned that listening to his stuff on streaming services now pales in comparison to the live performance!
This makes me happy. I was a huge fan back in the day and I still am. I won’t be able to see him perform at coachella but i’m so excited for the future!
Jai's music gives is one of those rare feelings, when you somehow know its genius. I still don't understand why couldn't he finish the tracks and publish it as a release apart from psychological reasons. Kanye presented Donda three times, each time iterating over this raw material and no one died. Really waiting for the performance and new material though!
Jai Paul is the Current Prince Of Pop nobody knows. Sunday in California is going to be a special moment in musical history akin to Daft Punk at Coachella.
I remember listening to BTSTU the first time on Myspace. I spent ages on internet forums talking about it. Then I remember someone on the forum posting a link to the leaked album minutes after it was leaked. I debated buying it and did. I remember exactly where I was and my first impressions. Like... he is a special, special talent for things like that to be so memorable. Glad I got to go to the London show.
I’m here to brag that I saw him. Didn’t know the whole background of his music. I thought he was new so could probably bum rush it to the front row. Yeah that didn’t happen. It was the most crowded set I experienced the whole weekend like a can of sardines. It started late. I was getting a little panicky but talked my way to staying. I was also baffled, wondering if he was wearing a wig like he was in disguise. Like who the hell is this dude really? Lol Hands down my favorite Saturday performance. I didn’t know what to expect. Whole thing had Thom Yorke energy.
I think Flume is the greatest music producer of this generation, and it always seems crazy to me how the guy that kind of inspired him is such an enigma. I can't wait for Jai's proper return so they can release something together.
Good for him landing that gig. I'd be terrified if my first gig was Coachella. Feels a bit off though as such a London oriented artist, you'd expect his first gig at least to be in the UK, or even India with how he wears his influences on his sleeve.
Saw him at Coachella and I was mindblown. Hands down one of my favorite sets, I’m still mesmerized and it seems like he enjoyed himself up on stage and the crowd was into it. I hope he goes on tour and releases more music
I dont blame Jai, this is really an issue with society...humans cant just let artist BE and exist as humans. The fact he went into hiding should've made ppl ask "damn what did we do to cause this." instead it made ppl go into a hunt to find him...wild! We have an obsession with putting ppl on a pedestal as long as it validates our existence. toxic. Im glad Jai is coming back but at HIS OWN TERMS, not ours.
@@temmuller9909 he did create a new genre but he is no way near as talented as jai please don’t put a multi talented producer and instrumentalist and vocalist in the same hierarchy as a auto tune artist 😂
@@aaronencinas6307 they are dopeee as you said ‘based on’ which proves my point people try to replicate his sound but nobody can really show levels like he is last person who was on his level obviously better was prince but nobody since
NO ONE considered Jai Paul pop in 2011. The production of BTSTU was heavily influenced by J Dilla. He even mentioned Dilla as an influence on his MySpace.
A few inconsistencies in this, off the top of my head; his performance is on April 16th while the 10 year anniversary of the leak was actually today (April 13th) hence the title "04-13". Second, to the best of my knowledge the two songs that Jai Paul released in 2019 were leftover songs from the same era as the leak instead of brand new compositions. That means that Jai has potentially over a decade's worth of unheard material to premiere in his live debut on Sun. Whoever gets to attend will be at the most important show of the century thus far.
The leaks were released on the 16th of April 2013. In the U.K we arrange the date differently with the day first for example: 16-04-13 as opposed to 04-16-13.
I found jai Paul over 10 years ago on tumblr. I swear I found a page that had like 42 tracks that were all him. Don’t know what happened to any of that music. I still wonder what any of it was, like was it a producer of his that leaked stuff, was it jai Paul himself. Or was it all bullshit. I really have no idea 😂
@@LynesMind It’s good pr. He is now about to play the whole thing at a festival. And launch a “comeback” and there is more mystery, hype and excitement than ever before. The perfect storm. And the theft narrative gets fans off his back.
@@thewheelchairone B.s. we live in a world were it is all about the money, for XL to leak it on purpose would be a HUGE fail from a monetary point of view, your view doesn't hold weight
Back when a "leak" could mess up your whole operation - now people try and fake leaks all the time because all along it could've been a good thing. Also, I dunno, my cynical self sees this as an industry plant I can't help it - but I guess that makes him more interesting; not necessarily a bad thing
as a producer i rlly think musicians rllyyyy overreact about leaks. if you release an official version people will listen if they liked the leak. if anything it is great promotion
oh I went the other way- as a producer I'm an obsessive perfectionist about the details and what I put out. so I get why having your drafts leaked before they're cooked, not your whole vision, and then held to the standard of finished tracks is rough.
@@kyleyrumohr997 i mean, you can always just release the finish tracks. people knew they were leaks from the beginning and the reception was overwhelmingly positive. people weren’t really giving him shit as if they were finished products
@@noThankyou-g5c I wasn't saying your perspective on having your own work leaked is wrong I just have the other side. there are comments on some of the new videos being like "this isn't as fresh as people act like it was" like it wasn't 10+ years ago. People will dig! Sitting around on the internet being hypercritical of people's work instead of making anything is a hobby. but more it's an internal PRIDE thing from my perspetive- I want to say something and I want the right to brew it up and say it how I think it's best. Having someone leak a draft like it's the full statement is a blow.

@@gamingwithnicko1942 do, it was acc great. New sing, new arrangements, great backing band and all around just a really good performance. Hope he tours soon.
How does BTSTU exactly have an oddly placed kick? Are you kidding me? It is literally placed on the 1 and the 3 and maybe a tad of grid... I swear some music channels just want to sound knowledgeable.
Respectfully he went from underrated to overrated? He’s a good musician and great production but to say he’s the new coming of Christ and the artist of the generation is pushing it 😂
