2015 was a pivotal year for Jor'Dan Armstrong and his producer and friend Tedy P. Jor'Dan released 52 Weeks of Summer, and the duo also produced Kierra Sheard's EP LED. Jor'Dan will also make his film debut in God's Not Dead 2 in 2016. Now moving into 2016 he is dropping the Confident EP, and confidence is something that Jor'Dan Armstrong never seems to lack. Musically, the six track EP basically sounds like an extension of the previous album, but lyrically it shows the attitude that he has for the new year.
Using basketball as an analogy that will definitely resonate with a generation of youth that look to NBA stars for inspiration, "Swish" uses a variety of basketball terminology to show that Mr. Armstrong is ready to do great things and be used by God. Some of the highlight lyrics are "He never fades away when I fade away... / Promise you we'll be the winning team / I'll lace my J's with no strings."
Tedy P. provides the heat, and his crisp production is always up to par with other more well-known producers in urban and hip hop music. You will have to nod your head when Jor'Dan thanks God for open doors on "Bless Up."
Closing Thoughts:
This is good riding music and something to build momentum for those who want to accomplish goals that they set or fulfill New Year resolutions. Jor'Dan's confidence is based on his reliance on Christ, and hopefully people will be able to get that message and not mistake it for arrogance.
