Jon’s 2012 release of Ode to Old Flames was met with critical acclaim across the globe. By far the most complex of the Bibbs catalog, Ode demonstrates Jon’s incredible vocal range and versatility as a singer. Prominently featured on the project are hip-hop legend Skillz, (formerly Madd Skillz,) the queen of indie soul music, Conya Doss. The record also includes production assistance from Dre-King, NameBrand, Miguel Atwood Ferguson and Nottz Raw.

The album remained on the iTunes R&B charts for one month, peaking at #11. It also performed well on the Amazon Music boards, peaking at #14 and remaining on the chart for 3 weeks. A remarkable feat for an indie artist in 2012.
