Jordan W. Carter wants to impact his personality on music.
As a result, nothing is straight-forward. Capable of being funny and also completely serious, his skewed take on rap is intricate but never boastful.
Out now, ‘TORTOISE, HARE, AND SMOKEY THE BEAR’ finds the rapper – who hails from southwest Atlanta, but is based in Brooklyn – charging into new areas.
There’s a playful side to his work, but that playfulness is being used to uncover something special.
As he puts it:
“This is a playfully erotic stoner’s anthem that is both ‘show-offy’ and witty – similar to the wit displayed by the hare in Brer Rabbit in ‘Songs Of The South’. The song has playful trickster vibes like it’s rapped by a young trap rabbit hopping along in the forest kissing everyone on the cheek and never forgetting to inquire if they need to buy weed.”
With lush production and a willingness to side-step trends, Jordan W. Carter is busy focussing on his own lane, while allowing others to follow.
Tune in now.
