Jon Batiste has such a bright light inside of him that the world shines better with his presence. Thank you for the joy and beauty and wisdom you give us. 👍👏👏👏👏
Still don't think I've recovered from Jon's abrupt departure from The Late Show. I needed this. One of the brightest shining and most positive people ever.
Love you Ari and Jon Batiste. Thank you for having him on your program. He's an awesome performer and person. Really miss him on the Cobert Show. Hope his wife is doing well.
What a fantastic interview. Jon Batiste is so pure. Ari, you ask such great questions, and you're one of the few journalists who actually lets your subject answer fully and to their own satisfaction.
Ari, You are the G.O.A.T. of journalism. Call me biased....its cool! You combine the most serious topics and musical culture with equal integrity, facts, and respect. Your level of journalism is unmatched. Thank you for sharing 🙌🏽 and God bless 🙏🏽!
THANK YOU JON FOR PUTTING LOUISIANA ON THE MAP. SO MANY OF OUR ARTIST LOVE TO FORGET WHERE THEY CAME FROM, WHICH IS REALLY WHO THEY ARE. WE ARE SO VERY PROUD OF YOU.😊❤
Ari has the best talent and he’s an excellent interviewer I believe he’s into all aspects with these talented people . Ari is so cool. Especially when talking about Tupac,
Jon is one of the few things I thank the pandemic for. Before that, I sometimes felt he was fake and even annoying as Colbert's "sidekick". But during the pandemic, I got to "know" him a lot better, and began to see that he was genuine and truly a fine person.
...look at ari becoming a kid again in this interview. i can tell ari really appreciates the talent of the younger generation and the younger generation appreciates ari for shining a spot light on them in front of the world 🌍. that's what sets ari apart from all the rest! c.peter morgan.
This came at the right time...Jon has been on my mind the last few weeks! Hoping he and his wife are doing well! Sending all love to them and to you Ari. Thanks for this!!
... i am sorry, i am still stuck in music from 1983-2015 so i haven't heard of this young one, jon batiste, but after hearing this interview, i gotta lot of catching up on my music history! thanks ari for ALWAYS giving us GREAT interviews. c.peter morgan.
One of the BEST INTERVIEWS EVER !!! Jon Batiste's Music comes from his Heart and Soul..it touches you. Ari, you have the Heart and Soul to recognize this and he, in you. That made this a deep soul sharing interview because you 'saw' him for all that he is...a beautiful, talented man sharing his gift with all of us.❤❤❤❤❤❤
Two of my favorite people igniting THE MOST EPIC conversation ever! AM and JB are rare gems! We have so much to be grateful for from these two magical humans! 🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽 Thank you 🙏🏼
Great start to a new season of Mavericks. Jon Batiste has a brilliant light within him that shines outward and he deserved the recognition. Ari, all those complementary things he said about Ari and his show were spot on and I was delighted to hear him say them. I understood that he needed to ‘move on’ but his presence and chemistry with Stephen Colbert was missed
What a gifted, unique, and talented young black man. He understands music and the culture of music. He knows it can be blessed to affect all people. Music transcends all people. His music is fantastic. His family background in music, formed his gift, and talent. God bless his gifts and talents. Thank you for encouraging other young people.
That interview was epic, enlightening, endearing, and ear-stounding. Batiste is a Gift to us from God. Ari, you da man, with your encyclopedic references to Rap. You came prepared and Jon delivered authenticity. Snap!!!!
Oh, Ari, your love for music and the arts just flows out of you each time I see you interview them. You have such warmth and love flowing forth, it touches us. Just as Jon Batiste saw your great light, we do too. Thank you for being so real. Also love your guest, Jon Batiste! He is such a gem and his light shines so brightly. What words of wisdom the two of you bring forth in this interview. It has really inspired me to keep on going with what I am called to do. Thank You and God Bless You Both!
Fabulous, this is one of the most genuine men on this earth. I always love interviews with Jon Batiste, he always leaves me with food for thought. Thanks for this interaction between you both. You were having such fun. Loved the videos! Precious. ❤
Jon Batiste is so inspiring and the relationship with his wife and their journey together is as well. Basquiat was an amazing artist, and I can't wait to see the film Jon is creating about him, his life and art. Thank you, Ari, for this great interview!
Ari Melber-new to me. Fresh air as an interviewing journalist. Thoughtful…love the combination of Ari and Jon-real people!!! We need people like this leading our country, right?!
@@Americasinertia The evidence against Trump is insurmountable grandma. Introvert don't you have laundry to do? Must have plenty of dirty sheets that need cleaning grandma. 😬
Have loved this unique soul since the premiere of Colbert’s The Late Show. Now I know the inspiration of his unique hairstyle - I confess I had completely forgotten what Basquiat looked like. A dream come true: seeing Batiste live, on his Uneasy Tour, here in Vancouver, Canada this June - the tickets were 98% sold out in less than 7 minutes.
Jon is so well spoken and as always concurrently inspiring and endearing - and was so adorable as a kid! Only halfway through this video and will have to finish the rest later but what a heartwarming piece, thank you
@Americasinertia I hate to tell anyone "you're right about this one! When it comes to trump. Not Joe Biden (our star of hope for Democracy to survive) vote Blue and get every maga republican Racist, Fascist, Criminal, out of our Government Offices
I was back in school again. "Warm ice is just water". "Failure means more success". "Success means more failure", Wine is grape juice". "I thought it was over when.... NEVER." "I knew I made it when....NEVER." Now I regret not buying a ticket to hear Jon Batiste at Carnegie Hall. Ari, the collab was like watching an intense tennis match. A M A Z I N G!
Bravo! Jon Batiste is extremely talented! His love of music is demonstrated through his artistry. Music actually speaks a universal language all of its own, in my opinion! Continued Blessings Always! ❤👏
Jon Batiste is a National Treasure!! Not just for his music but him as a person! Truly a gem of a human!!
Amen. You've expressed Jon Batiste's value perfectly:)
I totally agree🌹🎶💙
I just love Jon. He’s an amazing musician.
Yesss .. what a Blessing 🕊🤲🏼
Indeed!!
Jon Batiste has such a bright light inside of him that the world shines better with his presence. Thank you for the joy and beauty and wisdom you give us. 👍👏👏👏👏
That’s what music is: Joy, beauty, wisdom!
Ari should win an award for being the best journalist. His approach to news and culture is truly unique!
Couldn't agree more! One of the most intelligent, broad minded journalist in the current arena.
So appreciate these young men!
If Jon Batiste's spirit could be bottled, I'd drink it everyday. His joy can heal.
Such a beautiful man and beyond talented. Ari Melber was the perfect person to interview the iconic Jon Batiste.
I just love Jon Batiste so much. Can't wait for "Warm Ice Triple Entendre No Genre" to drop you guys 😆

Spectacular interview.

Filled to the brim with gems. 'I love to be myself in every room' ❤
Aw yay haven't seen him for a bit. I do pray his wife is doing better.
I would love to know the story behind Jon’s great, unique shirt!
Jon and Ari make a great team! Take the music to the people! Keep up the good work! We need you now more than ever!
Fantastic. Made me laugh, made me cry. Made me think. Thank you both.
