Jon Bellion coming to Birmingham

New York rapper Joh Bellion will stop off at Birmingham's O2 Institute tomorrow for a headline show as part of his first European tour.

He's promoting his debut album, The Human Condition, and his highly-anticipated shows follow two sold-out American tours.

Joh was born and raised in New York and released a succession of successful mixtapes before issuing a debut album last June.

The Human Condition was a huge hit, debuting at number five on the US Billboard 200.

His star has also risen after providing vocals for the 2015 EDM hit Beautiful Now, by Zedd, as well as writing the chorus to The Monster, by Rihanna and Eminem.

Yet Joh has remained grounded and is unmoved by his success.

"It should be a calm, collected, appreciative, humble, gradual climb to what you want to do. I feel like I have to keep myself in check and I keep a lot of my friends around me."
