When music comes from grief, it often carries a weight that can’t be manufactured. That’s exactly what you hear in John Best’s single “Million Problems” a song born out of heartbreak, faith, and a determination to keep going.
In March 2024, John’s brother Daniel passed away. The two had recently stepped back from chasing their music career to focus on healing, even talking about using their gifts to glorify God. The sudden loss shattered John, but in that silence, the songs began to pour out. Now, he’s on a mission to finish what the brothers started: spreading hope and healing through the love of Jesus Christ.

Musically, “Million Problems” blends rock grit with gospel honesty. John’s vocals carry both exhaustion and renewal, echoing the tension of a man who’s lived through brokenness but refuses to stay down. Lyrics like “I’ve caused a couple million problems, I’m due a couple million more, so I lay him down at the feet of my Savior” anchor the track in humility and grace. It’s confession and redemption rolled into one powerful chorus.
The song doesn’t shy away from raw storytelling—failed relationships, near self-destruction, and the plea for God’s pursuit: “Please don’t stop Lord, follow me down, chase me to the dark.” It’s a prayer wrapped in melody, equal parts cry for help and testimony of survival.
As a former member of the Best Brothers Band (winners of Georgia Rock Band of the Year), John’s roots run deep. He and Daniel once toured with acts like Sister Hazel, Marc Broussard, and even legends connected to Journey and Lynyrd Skynyrd. But “Million Problems” shows that his current mission isn’t about accolades, it’s about eternity, healing, and carrying his brother’s legacy forward.
