Speaking exclusively to Official Charts, the “Hakuna Matata” hitmaker shared, “Working with Brandi, Bernie and Andrew on this album was one of the greatest musical experiences of my life.”
He elaborated, “It was initially challenging, but working through that process allowed us to emerge with something truly joyous and celebratory.”
“We’ve been blown away by the response and love we’ve felt, and to see Who Believes In Angels? reach Number 1 is a true joy. We couldn’t be prouder of it,” John concluded.
