March 5, 2021 at 10:00 AM Jon Hope is back with another album titled “Hope All Is Well”. The nine track album is contemplative, piano based and cerebral.

There’s also the matter of hope being in his name.
The album progresses from themes of struggle to triumph. Though he acknowledges the struggle isn’t over, he has pi... Tags: Reviews, Albums, Jazz, Album Review, Jon, Hip Hop Album, Jon Hope129 people like this. Like
