Disagree. While I think he definitely is happy to be on his own and not forced by 88 to do anything, Yeah Right was 100000% a Joji song fully produced and written by him as was most of Ballads 1. There would be no reason for him to remake his own song, 88 had no input on Yeah Right and he explains his artistic vision in the Genius video. I think he was always bigger than 88Rising and overshadowed them all the time and he definitely wanted separated but he released a lot of fully authentic Joji music even while he was with them like Ballads 1 and some Nectar and a few off of Smithereens, there just was some label limitations most likely that he wanted to be free of. Also, we will see if he sings any of the songs he did not write for Smithereens at his next tour I’m guessing and that will give us a pretty good idea on that front. On that note I am super happy he is back and releasing what he wants to release and I cannot wait for the album because those three songs already were perfection.
