Singer-songwriter-producer Will Jordan drops back with a new video for “In My Feelings,” which serves as the first single from his Deep Sleep project.
The video, directed by Michael Rabb, is a modern twist on the Cinderella tale as the Tacoma, Washington artist wraps things up during the night shift of his 9-5, working his local grocery store. Following an interaction with a beautiful girl who leaves her credit card behind, Will continues on with life, promoting an upcoming show (set at Fabitat in Tacoma) before a flyer catches the eye of a certain credit-card-missing female.

Growing up in Tacoma taught Will Jordan to calibrate his ambitions to suit his priorities. After going mercenary for global superstars in LA, the singer-songwriter-erstwhile hitmaker is back home and making his presence felt.
Tacoma-based singer Will Jordan‘s Friday night set at the KEXP’s Occidental Stage may have only lasted around an hour, but, in a sense, he’s been preparing for it nearly every night of his career. Jordan, who has penned Grammy-nominated hits for artists like Rihanna and Nicki Minaj, creates most of his solo material — an imaginative blend of trap, hip hop, and contemporary R&B — around two AM, well after his young daughter has gone to sleep. And every time he writes, he mentioned in an interview during Upstream, he’s envisioning how the music will sound live.
It's Will Jordan's turn to fly
Nicki Minaj and Rihanna took his inspirational song "Fly" and made it a top 20 hit. Now Will Jordan says it's his turn to fly.
Watch Tacoma-based artist Will Jordan perform the track "Sweet Dreams" during an April in-studio on Street Sounds on KEXP, via VuHaus:
Upstream’s first year was focused on educating the Seattle music scene about how technology & community are helping drive better business in music. And also gave them a place to show off their skills live. Upstream’s potential is educating other local scenes by recording the panels and making an effort to distribute them online. In turn driving more people in the music industry to come, so they can in turn see what’s happening in Seattle and other local music scenes.
