Jordan D. Mitchell Releases Album “I’ll Apologize Later”

Upon the success of his first official album, Jordan D. Mitchell’s forceful and compelling nature led him to release the deluxe version titled I’ll Apologize Later: Director’s Cut. Written, produced, mixed, and mastered by Jordan himself, the artist released 7 more tracks in addition to the original album that take on more introspective, political, visual, and thought provoking subjects that will deeply resonate with listeners through its entirety.  Jordan discusses his own life experiences of gang violence, prostitiution, and mental health while also opening an avenue for hope and the importance of pushing forward.

Steering away from a comical persona of music that the artist has familiarized his audience with, Jordan expresses a self-reflective character and holds others accountable for the misfortunes that have occurred in his life. In addition, Jordan utilizes a continuous narrative through his music videos and introduces the filmography of his album through the visual “Happy Pills.”

Here’s a little bit of info on the artist:

A Stockton, CA native and musical mastermind of his generation, Jordan D. Mitchell is setting the bar high for independent rappers in the industry. Writing, playing, producing, mastering, mixing, distributing, and performing are of the many hats JDM wears as an artist as he continues to prove himself as a compelling force in the musical world. Drawing inspiration from his own musical experiences, he uses his various cultural influences, symphonic soundtracks, and reliefs of escapism therefore not bounding him to any particular genre and establishing himself as a man of many sounds.

Prior to the release of his latest official album I’ll Apologize Later, JDM has three astounding projects in his library. Although JDM uses music to express his thoughts while entertaining others, he hopes to create music for black and brown folks in particular. “My music is for the hood kids struggling in college, for the people locked up, my music is transcultural and changes along with the climate I am living, it’s extremely self-reflective and progressive.”

In addition to creating music, JDM obtains a Bachelor of Arts in Music Composition from UC Santa Barbara and is continuing his education at USC’s Music Teaching and Learning Masters Program. JDM works alongside legendary musician Eric Parker who has produced for notable artists such as Timbaland, Missy Elliot, Kanye West, and Lauryn Hill, to name a few. JDM also teaches music to local high school students in the Los Angeles area while spending his weekends performing with his mariachi band.

Artist Spotlight

HeIsTheArtist Opens Up about New EP, Faith and more!

Can you tell us a little about your musical background and how you got started in the industry?

Growing up, I was always in some type of choir and band. I didn’t take music seriously, however, until I was an adult, when a music producer from my hometown discovered me online singing covers for fun on my Instagram page. He loved what he heard and invited me to his studio to record a single (now titled “Honey”). The rest is history.

Your new EP, “Dreaming In Emerald City (Wicked Deluxe Edition),” is a tribute to two iconic films. What inspired you to create this project?

In recent years, musical movies have grown in popularity. That alone inspired me to create this project, which mixed the essence of my favorite two musical movies with R&B.

How do you infuse elements of Broadway and neo-soul into your music? 

I was deliberate with the nostalgic instrumentation to give an old-school Broadway sound. I mixed in the Neo-Soul element with my soulful vocal delivery.

The theme of empathy and self-love is prominent in this EP. Can you speak more on the messages you hope to convey through your music?

This EP is about self-discovery (which is the theme of “The Wizard of Oz” as well). The EP takes you on a journey, from love of others to self-love. By the end of the EP, I hope listeners have a little more love to give in their hearts.

Your cover of Minnie Riperton’s “Lovin’ You” has gained a lot of attention. What made you choose this song and how did you put your own spin on it?

I chose “Lovin’ You” because it’s the epitome of earthy love songs. I put a spin on it by just being myself while still honoring the original.

The EP also includes a remix of your original song “Mi Amor.” Can you talk about the inspiration behind this song and its remixes?

The song itself was inspired by “The West Side Story” (which is why the lyrics are mostly in Spanish). The song is about falling in love in a world that often times breaks lovers apart.

The retro remixes were inspired by the 1989 musical movie “Teen Witch” where the main character had trouble finding love until she realized she always had the power to find love, she just had to find love within herself.

Your music has reached international success, particularly in the UK. How does it feel to have such a wide audience for your music?

Advertisement

It feels great that my music is reaching larger audiences. It shows that my God-fearing music is being embraced in a world that can be so heartless at times.

You have been described as a Christian R&B artist. Can you tell us about the role of faith in your music?

Advertisement

God is everything in my music. God is love, which is why every song I sing is about love.

Can fans expect any live performances or tours in support of this EP?

Advertisement

Yes, towards the summer, I will be doing various live performances. Stay posted to my social media for performance dates!

What can we expect from HeIsTheArtist in the future? Any upcoming projects or collaborations to look out for?

On May 10th I will be releasing a cover of “(At Your Best) You Are Love” by The Isley Brothers paired with a cinematic music video. I call this project “Dreaming In Emerald City 1.5” because it expands on the concepts that my EP “Dreaming In Emerald City” touched on.
