[@iammeallday]

Now this is how you do an interview - this brother doing this interview is so tapped in and aware of his guest Jharrel and the talent that Jharrel brings. Awesome work!

[@ginomartinez9741]

I've been a HUGE fan of Jharrel Jerome ever since I saw Spider-Man Across the Spider-Verse when he first appeared as Miles G. Morales at the end of the movie because he looks exactly like me and he voiced Miles Morales from Earth-42😬🔥 Miles G. Morales looks exactly like me and I'm planning on dressing up as him for Cosplaying when Spider-Man Beyond the Spider-Verse releases in theaters!!! I'm very excited to watch that movie!!!!!🤩🤩🤩

[@JosiahTauanuuNuumanaia]

He does not look like you bro😂😭

[@jabbardlewis]

excellent interview

[@melin4ted_bookworm632]

I've been waiting to hear more from Jharrel since he put out his recent mixtape packs 🎶😎🎶 on Spotify last summer, & he killed it in I'm A Virgo ♍ too, so I keep wanting to go back & binge it!!!!! Furthermore, I appreciate his candor in choosing to speak on his love life, which is something I would also have to consider preparing for, as a fellow Libra ♎ & hopeless romantic 💔. I was also in tears as he spoke on his undying love for his grandfather, which reminded me of the same reverence and love I still have for my maternal grandmother, who passed on two years ago coming up in March. All in all, here's to enjoying more successfull & profound work from this compassionate, earnest, & captivating multi-hyphenate creative 💐💐💐💐💐
