Sometimes the most unlikely of unions can produce a cosmic experience by bridging generational and cultural gaps. That’s exactly what happened when a Midwestern, rock ‘n’ roll, teen princess and an East Coast music mogul/hip-hop aficionado formed a musical alliance. Now, Jordan McCoy, the latest artist to blossom from the Bad Boy family tree, introduces her brand of pop-rock with an introspective inaugural, Just Watch Me. A small town girl with big city dreams, McCoy grew up performing at local hee-haw shows, sale conventions and sweet corn and watermelon festivals in Mount Vernon, Ill. Before long, she had become a hometown celebrity. McCoy performed wherever she had an audience, no matter how small. “I remember when I was really young, I’d sit in my living room and sing my own songs for family and friends and I always made them clap,” she recalls. “Believe it or not, I was the one dragging my mom to auditions, not the other way around.”
In the summer of 2003, McCoy’s perseverance earned her a subsequent spot as a finalist in the first and only season of American Juniors, the American Idol spin-off that showcased talented teens. Although McCoy didn’t become the AJ victor, her talent and shine were too bright to be dulled. Eventually AJ’s loss would prove to be Bad Boy’s gain. Clockwork Entertainment’s CEO/President, Debbie Hammond reached out to the budding starlet. “Despite my loss I am grateful for the exposure that American Juniors gave me,” McCoy says. A longtime associate of Diddy’s, Hammond convinced him to hear Jordan live and Diddy immediately signed and adopted her into the Bad Boy family. McCoy, who plays the guitar and drums, enlisted the help of a production dream team that reads like the Rock ‘n’ roll Hall of fame: Diane Warren, Matthew Gerrard, Steve Diamond, Bobby Huff, Liv and Mim Nervo, Mike Shimshack, Kyle Kelso and Wade Robson.
The outcome of this collaboration is Just Watch Me, a rock ‘n’ roll anthology that delivers universal truths about everything from confidence and friendship to heart break and love. The album kicks off with the defiant title track which taunts detractors over a symphony of electric guitars with lyrical will power as she belts: “Not afraid of working hard/and there’ll never be a guarantee/but I believe I can be anything I want to be/No matter what you say/just watch me/I’ll do it/no matter what you say/I’ll do it/I’m flying no one is gonna clip my wings/just watch me/just watch me/can’t stop me!” Then there’s the equally spirited inspirational “Life’s Open Door,” which encourages one to be a risk-taker and explore limitless opportunities by pursuing his or her dreams while the mid-tempo, empowering anthem “Unnoticed” serves as a declaration to keep it moving after a heart break, because what your ex didn’t see the next person will. “Rock ‘n’ Roll Girl,” McCoy’s tribute to her mentor and big brother Diddy, addresses the unlikely partnership of two people from two different backgrounds coming together in perfect harmony. “I think Diddy and others wondered if a hip hop boy and a rock ‘n’ roll girl could actually work,” she says. “But we made it happen.” The album continues to fire up girl power with the track “I Don’t Need Boys,” which discourages relationships for the sole purpose of monetary gain and promotes chivalry and female independence. And McCoy flips the script with the candid breakup anthem “Next Ex-Boyfriend,” but expresses vulnerability with “On Saturday Night, (11:27),” that evaluates the hindsight of infidelity. A funky, rocked-out upgrade to Belinda Carlyle’s 1990 chart topper “I Get Weak” adds a bit of nostalgia while the sentimental ballad “Promise Me,” begs for a love that stands the test of time and distance. The encouraging “Always Friends” is a tribute to the maturation of friendships.
Now, with all the elements in place and all the stars aligned, all eyes are on McCoy. “Growing up in a small town you think that there’s no way out to follow your dreams and that you’ll never make it,” she says. “They were more people who doubted me than supported me, but I’m glad I didn’t let anything stop me from pursuing my dreams and now I know that this is where I belong.” Long live rock and roll girls!

Father God our source, strength, provider, and life. Our next breath is Your Grace & Mercy toward us. Help us this day to love You with all of our heart & soul. For Your 1st Commandment tells us to not have any god before You. Deliver us from activities where You don't get the glory; listening, watching & speaking about sex, drugs, cars, clothes, money and such things don't benefit us in our future, they in most cases block blessings, cause pain, sorrow, worry, stress, disease or even death. Renew or desires and motives on what will be beneficial at Judgment- love, peace, joy, forgiveness, Your Word & our relationship with You. Everyone will have to give account for their actions good & bad. As we study Your Word, pray, obey, & humble ourselves over to Your Purpose, direct, guide, provide & order our and our loved ones' steps. You Alone are God, & have loved us enough to send Your Only Begotten Son, our Redeemer Jesus Christ as payment in full, for those who obey, trust & do Your Will. Help us Father to keep focus on You, not our circumstances. (Psalm 37 1FRET NOT yourself because of evildoers, neither be envious against those who work unrighteousness (that which is not upright or in right standing with God). 2For they shall soon be cut down like the grass, and wither as the green herb. 3Trust (lean on, rely on, and be confident) in the Lord and do good; so shall you dwell in the land and feed surely on His faithfulness, and truly you shall be fed. 4Delight yourself also in the Lord, and He will give you the desires and secret petitions of your heart. 5Commit your way to the Lord [roll and repose each care of your load on Him]; trust (lean on, rely on, and be confident) also in Him and He will bring it to pass. 6And He will make your uprightness and right standing with God go forth as the light, and your justice and right as [the shining sun of] the noonday. 7Be still and rest in the Lord; wait for Him and patiently lean yourself upon Him; fret not yourself because of him who prospers in his way, because of the man who brings wicked devices to pass. 8Cease from anger and forsake wrath; fret not yourself--it tends only to evildoing. 9For evildoers shall be cut off, but those who wait and hope and look for the Lord [in the end] shall inherit the earth 10For yet a little while, and the evildoers will be no more; though you look with care where they used to be, they will not be found.11But the meek [in the end] shall inherit the earth and shall delight themselves in the abundance of peace.12The wicked plot against the [uncompromisingly] righteous (the upright in right standing with God); they gnash at them with their teeth. 13The Lord laughs at [the wicked], for He sees that their own day [of defeat] is coming.

Greetings!!! I wish to first and formost, thank you for adding and accepting my friendship; I do recieve you in love and appreciation. I want to add that this page was open up as a window to my life and purpose in this world. When I chose a career, I choose one that would be of help to mankind. I've been fighting for respect and equality for all eversince I was a teenager. I'm a victim of physical, sexual, emotional and mental abuse, and as a result, I became an advocate for victims like myself; mainly teens. I will be releasing my first independantly written book that is with intent to educate, uplift and encourage persons of the results of intolerance, hate and bigotry against those that are respected humans, but different. Upon the release I will be traveling throughout the United States and the world to freely speak to youths about violence and actions that is causing our teens to fall victim to the streets.
The book will be released around Thanksgiving holiday season, I really need and appreciate the support and help to continue to give my service to hurting youths around the world and in our country. Keep me in mind, stay in touch and God Bless.
