Loved this interview! Kelly is doubly blessed. One, with that magnificent voice, two, with having Jason as her musical director. It's wonderful to have a man who's not only so talented, but is ethical and is loyal. What a great team! BTW... "Already Gone" is still one of my favorites!
I've been a super fan of KC since Breakaway/MD area and a fan of Jason too since I realised his involvement around Stronger area. I often say to people that he's as much "Kelly Clarkson" the brand as actual Ms Kelly Clarkson the human is. Almost every vocal we've heard has been recorded by him if it's on a record or he's been the music director if we've heard it live. I've been a fan for a long time and I'm still amazed by what he can do, and does do. Kellyoke is genuinely legendary, in music and in TV. There's no award for it because it is its own category of awesome. It's awesome for us long-time fans who now have an almost endless supply, constantly updating collection of KC songs.
This interview was awesome. I’m a huge fan of both Kelly Clarkson and Jason Halbert. It was great to get so many windows of insight behind the scenes of Jason’s amazing career in music. I thoroughly enjoyed every moment of this interview and every morsel and detail shared. Thank you, Jacob, for these thoughtful questions and conversation and thank you Jason for all the work and talent you put in to making the music dreams of Kelly and her fans come true. As to any music industry people out there - if Kelly Freaking Clarkson wants to SONG YOUR SONG in any context JUST SAY YES!!! Come ON, people! Have you heard her sing???!!! Have you heard what KC did with Unchained Melody? I rest my case. Say YES when Kelly asks to work with you, in any capacity- collaboration, cover, duet. Clear your songs or your schedules or whatever you have to do. It is the easiest decision you’ll ever have to make in your career.
Being familiar with KC, Jason is a huge part of her work/life. That's how I know his work. Plus, remember seeing his daughter and their story on Kelly Clarkson Show. Inspirational. Glad he's getting recognized separately. Immensely talented. Paul Shaffer 2.0! Haha
Love this! I’m a big Kelly fan. Still waiting for a new album!!! Can’t wait for The Voice and the talk show to come back. Love that she’s taking over Ellen’s slot.
This was a fascinating interview! So much goes on behind the scenes we don't know about that was really interesting to learn and I loved hearing Jason's story about his earlier career.
Thanks for this. I've really enjoyed hearing Jason's story. Always wondered about what his job and life is like working with KC. Effort of u both on this is appreciated...
Kelly Clarkson is so amazing that some of these artists probably feel threatened by her singing their songs on the show bc she very well may do a better job & they know it so that’s why Kelly gets denied to cover some of them I’d say 😂❤ was so cool to hear all this info from Jason!
Great interview. Really makes you appreciate how important someone like Jason is for so many things. But also how completely genuine Kelly is and how she really is just as nice and caring, equal to how talented she is.
Look at you giving him his 1st RUclips interview!! Loved hearing his full story! CCM background with DCTalk & wow, he was in Sonicflood! My takeaways: 1. It’s all about serving. 2. Never stop working on your skills. 3. Be an approachable & easygoing people person. 4. Never be too proud to know your weaknesses. 30years of hard earned wisdom being shared right there!
I love this interview. Jason Halbert is so talented. They had this 'Kellyoke Afterparty' segment where they talked about the behind the scenes of some Kellyoke it was so interesting...and just shows how much talent is in their band Y'all.
I had no idea of Jason’s background. Wow. I was a 20’s in this era of Christian music. Wow. I know all those bands/records and love it all! Thank you for this interview.
What an interesting and wholesome interview. I really liked Jason and hearing his story. You can tell he puts the hard work in and I love that he says he thrives on the challenges in Kelly’s requests. Says a lot about his dedication and devotion to her. I also enjoyed the chemistry created between Jason and Jacob; it was so genuine. Great Q & A that just felt like I was chillin with them without feeling cold, stuffy or boring. Great job, Jacob!!
I love hearing from Jason hes such an awesome guy, so kind, and really really ridiculously talented! Him and Kelly together have been amazing to watch over the years! I feel so lucky that I've been there since the beginning.
I have a feeling some of the artists don't release approval for her covers because she will sing it better than the original (just see her BMA medley as a perfect example). Also - the difference between American Idol and The Voice - the producers for American Idol are IN the music industry; the Executive producers from The Voice is Mark Burnett - he's a live tv guru (survivor, etc.) so huge success but his platform is not built on establishing/launching the careers of musicians - and it's reflected in how the pairings are made in the battle rounds, and the cuts in later rounds in both programs.
Jacob...please do interviews with as many members of Now United as possible. Also please do interviews with The Future X(Simon Fuller and XIX Entertainment's new group). - 🌏📍🇨🇦

I think you need to plan a Kelloye reaction livestream
that sounds like a brilliant idea

Awesome interview, love to hear the stories of how successful people get to where they are. Love it!

Loved the interview!!!!
thankyou!

🔥🔥
Great Interview.
Thank you
That’s funny the Kelly Clarkson Show has a “clearance department” just to focus on getting songs cleared. So interesting
I have a feeling some of the artists don't release approval for her covers because she will sing it better than the original (just see her BMA medley as a perfect example).

Oh wow GREAT insight
Great interview lol brother!
I remember fans raved about the sound quality for kellys vocals on all i ever wanted and stronger.
so good
Anything about new music from her?
Like he said in the interview, it’s on its way! Gotta watch to know… 😉
@@sugamama4049 I went back to it, thanks. The answer is quite vague guess we have to wait
Jacob...please do interviews with as many members of Now United as possible. Also please do interviews with The Future X(Simon Fuller and XIX Entertainment's new group). - 🌏📍🇨🇦
Thanks!
❤❤❤
:D
You’re not good with names 😂 Jason became Jim. Kelly became Cory
He is the best of Kelly’s friend. She could do it without him😊
so cool
