Dayne Jordan – “Family Man” (Video)
For the unsung heroes, the everyday role models. From the album “Memoirs of Dayne Jordan.”
Man, this latest Dayne Jordan jawn reached so deep the first time I watched (my count is six times as of this post). “Family Man” was produced by the incomparable DJ Jazzy Jeff, making the song a Philly brothers connection. Wanna make this sub a real Philly… put in The Fresh Prince Of Bel Air clip of Will Smith in PAIN when his dad dipped on him AGAIN! Yep, right at the heart of the video, so it cuts deep (shout to director Cristopher Schafer, the same genius that brings us ‘Vinyl Destination’)!
And comedian Top Rope Zeus took his role as a dad on the ropes in the fight we call real life. Too real. I’ve gotten that ‘this is your last day letter and handshake’… twice!
Get to watching; again and again. Jordan! And it counts!

Dayne Jordan – “The Hustlers” (Prod. By DJ Jazzy Jeff) [Video]
Visuals for “The Hustlers” off the “Memoirs Of Dayne Jordan” that Dayne Jordan has kept bubbling since it dropped this summer. That, and being on tour with DJ Jazzy Jeff (executive producer for the entire album), keeps the man pretty damn busy. Takes work to live a dream. More than that…HUSTLE! Check out the visuals above. Single and album linked below when you’re ready.

Dayne Jordan – “Beautiful Day In The Neighborhood” (Prod. By DJ Jazzy Jeff x James Poyser) [Video]
Dayne Jordan and Cristopher Schafer (for Visually Inklined) did the work for this visual for “Beautiful Day In The Neighborhood†from the “Memoirs of Dayne Jordan” LP. Incredible to suggest, with the title font and initial foreground images, that we were going to get a “Mr. Rogers’ Neighborhood” video. But nah, this is Mr. Jordan’s neighborhood… sweet is balanced by bitterness – stoops and porches, dark alleys and overgrowth. Good heartfelt storytelling. Check it out above, and link back to an earlier post for the LP below.

“Prior to this album, there was a lot of confusion in reference to who I am, where I come from, and what I am about. Jeff provided the perfect sonic canvas for me to paint on.â€

DJ Jazzy Jeff as mentor and beatmaker for this entire “Memoirs” LP really cannot be anything but set us up to expect greatness, but doesn’t that put a lot of pressure on Dayne Jordan to deliver on the expectation? Yes. And does he deliver? Solid YES! Jordan is going hard nowadays, touring the world as Jeff’s – helping rock the parties [you’ve been seeing on here] on Vinyl Destination… and yet he still gives birth to this full-length banger… AND check out the words of praise from Jeff.
“It’s rare when you work with someone who is as pure and focused as Dayne… this was hands down the most enjoyable project I’ve ever done.â€
