Rising pop artist JORDY has released his bubbly new single “IDK SH!T”. Chronicling the challenges of young adulthood during his twenties, the song showcases JORDY’s impressive falsetto and knack at crafting anthemic hooks. Watch the accompanying video, directed by Queerty Award-winning filmmaker Assaad Yacoub, now below.
“I remember being a kid and thinking about what it would be like to be an adult: The freedoms, the knowledge, and the experience. Everything about it sounded so cool, but here we are, three years away from turning 30 and I still feel like a child,” JORDY explained about the song’s inspiration. “I feel like life lately has been cycles of calling my parents begging for answers: How do taxes work? How do you jump start a car? Should I be further ahead in my career? How do I find love? The list goes on, but sometimes, they don’t even have the answers. I want to normalize this feeling of not having it ‘together’ because truthfully, nobody fully does. It’s important to remember that in moments when you’re being hard on yourself,” he added.
Produced by frequent collaborator Drew Polovick, the song arrives just in time for JORDY’s hometown debut at Lollapalooza Festival in Chicago this weekend, where he will be playing two performances on Thursday, 7/28 (6:30pm @ Bud Light Seltzer Stage) and Friday, 7/29 (12:45pm @ T-Mobile Stage).
JORDY is in the studio working on his sophomore project, with more details to be revealed soon.
