A Note from Mr. Heifetz, Jordan's Teacher

"I teach Jordan as part of an after-school songwriting and production program at his public high school, which offers limited access to professional production tools and even less access to musical instruments for personal use. And so, for our first assignment, I asked the class to use nothing more than pen and paper to write out a set of lyrics regarding a given subject. Jordan went above and beyond: he crafted an incredibly complex and socially aware rap verse that flipped the subject matter on its head. He instructed a few friends to drum along, and made a makeshift beat as well. Jordan's intellect, creativity, and passion are evident in how he can take pen, paper, and hand-drumming, and deliver way more than what was asked for.

Jordan is an incredibly talented young rapper, writer, and producer. Jordan will benefit from this program because he needs real training in the kind of practical skills and production techniques required for a young artist to build and complete their own finished songs and instruction in how to use those techniques to further his own creativity and make his sound even more special. I believe he will uniquely benefit from Wishbone because he is dedicated, hungry for instruction, and, above all, very talented."
