JordanL

Born and raised in Detroit, Michigan, JordanL never had it easy. He watched as his mom struggled to raise six kids while making sure they were able to eat at least six days a week. This kept him motivated and family oriented. To pass time he would hang out with his uncle who made rap beats for neighborhood friends. Wanting to fit in he started rapping at the age of 13.  One day his uncle, Trey Styles, gave him the opportunity to rap on a track with his little brother called "Old School vs. New School" about NBA jerseys. It was all love for music after that. 

Music became JordanL’s life.  His biggest influence is his highs school band director, Mr. Thomas. Thomas always believed in him, helped him, coached him, and was that father figure in his life when he needed it the most to keep motivated. With idols like Outkast, who aren’t afraid to be different, JordanL has created his own lane. His music is like an open book. He speaks truth in all his music, as he has nothing to hide. He shows his pains, passion, and progress to motivate someone else to be a better them. He wants his fans to listen then want to motivate someone else, a chain reaction of motivation. In turn having his music change the world for the better.

As an independent artist JordanL looks up to artist like Nas, Kendrick Lamar, J. Cole for their consciousness and not as mainstream artist like Oba Rowland, Don Trip, Starlito, and Kevin Gates for their independent success. They all bring passion and excitement to every track, which pushes him to do the same with his own music.
