New York City, New York - From the crossroads of America comes a beautiful, talented fourteen year old rising singer that has a very unique voice that's catchy. Jordan JAE hailing from the iconic and cultured streets of New York City, 14-year-old pop sensation is about to burst the music industry wide open with her relentlessly catchy tunes. This musical wunderkind has been singing since she can remember and at the tender age of 7 was persuaded by her mom to take vocal lessons. By the age of 9, Jordan JAE picked up piano as well and wrote her very first original song. She confesses, “It was definitely the quality of a nine year old but like they say, you can only get better.”
With the support of her parents, Jordan JAE started writing songs whenever she could. She found creative vision in everything, from her daily life to her twin brother, Tyler. Stating, “Inspiration comes from the girl that helps someone because she wants to and not because she has to. It comes from experiences and books and movies and other music. Inspiration comes from the things that make you feel something, because that’s what music should do. Music should make you feel something.”
Around the age of 13 she was invited to record at SlumboLabs recording studio in Brooklyn by Jake Ottman. There she began to develop as a singer/songwriter, working alongside some amazing artists and producers. She’s quickly grown a strong online following with her YouTube cover videos, releasing beautiful renditions of Imagine Dragons “It’s Time,” Ingrid Michaelson “Breakable,” The Beatles “I Want To Hold Your Hand,” and more. Recently Jordan JAE teamed up with Grammy nominated songwriters and producers Kinetics & One Love (Eminem, B.o.B, Pitbull, Sean Kingston, Melanie Martinez) for her anthemic debut single, “Said No One Ever.” The tenacious, empowering breakup song and music video are was released on March 4th.

When did you start singing?
I can’t remember a time I was not singing and performing. One of my memories was when I was 4 years old at my Grandparents house performing, “We Go Together”, from the movie Grease, in front of my family singing my heart out on my Barbie Karaoke Machine.
Was it your dream to be a singer?
Yes always! My dad is a musician and I grew up listening to my dad play guitar and I knew I wanted to do something in music too. He would play mostly rock music not the type of music that I choose to sing, write or listen to; but I do appreciate his musical taste. When I was younger I was always singing. Whether I was singing and my Dad was playing the guitar or I was just singing in my room I have always dreamed of being a singer.
