At Home With Jaden: The Playlist

“Talking about it with people is the best way to get over it,” Jaden tells Apple Music about the most difficult aspects of dealing with the pandemic. “I feel like we're all being aware of the different mental health issues in the world right now, because we're all being isolated with ourselves, so we are very much so being confronted with our thoughts.” As he returns with his aptly titled new single “Cabin Fever,” the rapper and actor has been hard at work putting the finishing touches on his forthcoming studio album Cool Tape Vol. 3—which he started working on in the Bahamas before lockdowns began. On this exclusive Apple Music playlist curated by Jaden himself (with the helping hand of his girlfriend, actor Odessa Adlon), he shares tracks by The Beatles, A Tribe Called Quest, Dominic Fike, and singer-songwriter Harry Hudson, whose track “Give Up on Us” is included here. “He's been through a lot of really hard things, and it has shaped him into a type of person that I've never seen or met before,” he says of Hudson. “People say that music is healing, and Harry really brings that into every song that he makes.”
