The music video for "I KNOW" premiered alongside the release, showcasing Joony's heartfelt vulnerability juxtaposed with Blxst's confident bars.


On the Deluxe, Joony shares, “A memento is an object kept as a reminder or souvenir of a person or event. I wanted to take that concept a step further with the Deluxe EP and bring it full circle by expanding on the themes MEMENTO dove into.”


Expanding on the themes of MEMENTO, Joony's Deluxe EP delves deeper into his storytelling prowess and genre-bending sound. Tracks like "SADITTY" and "BEAUTY / L(EYES)" highlight his versatility and evolution as an artist.


Born Jonathan Negero, Joony's music reflects his Ethiopian-American heritage, with introspective lyrics and innovative production. Backed by Red Bull Records, Blxst’s Evgle imprint, and his own collective 211, Joony is set to make waves in the music industry.
