The fact your classic “love song” can not be found here.
Your friendly anti-love neighbourhood rapper introduces you to his definition of ‘THE LOVE TING’ right from the opening track of the project.
A profound declaration of Love for all of his Tings.
During the project, he showers with admiration his array of ‘tings’. A master of lyrical irony, he professes his unconditional love for each one, and all of them. His heart is just too big for his own good and some things [or tings] better be kept private.
The overall lesson on Accountability and Affection in Relationships
Embarking on a journey through relational enlightenment, Jordy bravely points the finger at the source of his relationship turmoil. In a departure from the ‘yes-man’ mentality, he asserts that sometimes… it’s just all her fault.
The song ‘SHE LOVES ME’
Is the parallel universe where Jersey Club meets R&B and has a baby called ‘Commitment-Phobia’
Heartstrings, Acoustic guitar, Vocal Layers, Rhodes, pocketed bassline, and loads of hearts broken
Jordy blesses us with a modern-day R&B romance ballad. A silk-woven bassline and a kick drum that beats in time with his infatuated heart. The result? Ethereal and angelic It addresses the paradox o love with a silk touch.
