ABOUT THIS ARTIST

“Thank you if you like me, f*ck you if you don’t. That’s my philosophy”.   The one thing that can be agreed on about this enigmatic, often confounding artist is that at his core, he is an individual. John has always been obsessed with making his music, his way, regardless of any cultural norms that surround him. He may scorch a beat with a free-flowing 16 one moment, and sing his heart out on a slow, cinematic heartbreak ballad the next. What you see is usually not what you get with Lone.   John started his musical career under a myriad of aliases, trying on many different hats before settling with the name “Wiley Coyote”, a stage name which he had performed under since 2014. He released his first project in 2016, and over the next few years of his career, busily dropped projects, until suddenly, at the end of 2018, he stopped. After vanishing under the radar for a few months, he came back, with a completely new identity and approach to music. He branded himself John Alone, and the rest is history.   Since his rebirth, John has released a number of successful singles, including the irresistible "Sunny Skies" and the earnest "Don't Let Me Down". In the summer of 2020, he released his debut project under the new alias, titled "Babel! (Aka Johnny Social's Collectivist Manifesto)", which featured some of the brightest sparks within the underground London rap scene. The project was described by 108mics.com in a full length review as a "triumph for British underground music".
