Jordan Mackampa shares the second single, “I’VE FOUND MY HOME IN YOU” from his highly anticipated forthcoming album ‘Welcome Home, Kid!’ out 16 February 2024 via AWAL. This new offering comes accompanied by the second in a series of beautifully shot videos centred around the home, directed by Jedidah M (Etta Bond, Tay Iwar, Calvin Klein).

Inspired by the soundtracks of the classic Black movies he watched, Jordan creates his own love ballad in “I’ve Found My Home In You”. Nodding to those old school R&B songs that would play in the background of emotional scenes, he offers a soulful, heartwarming ode to being in love whether it’s brand new or long-term with a modern day bounce.

“I’VE FOUND MY HOME IN YOU” follows the introspective “PROUD OF YOU”, a long overdue conversation Jordan has with his inner child backdropped by a piano-led production embellished with stunning strings and joyous sounds of brass. “Proud Of You '' was a stand out return for the soul star going on to become BBC Introducing’s Tune of the Week with further Radio 1 support from Clara Amfo and Jack Saunders.

The new album Welcome Home, Kid! sees Jordan come back to his love of R&B, soul, funk and gospel with references to Dru Hill and Blackstreet, producing a new sound that nods to his earlier soundcloud works and the nostalgia of his childhood. It's brazen and bold and presents an incredibly assured artist that is no longer afraid to show off their Blackness, queerness, or sexual expression in all their forms. Getting to this place has taken Jordan decades of growth, patience & gruelling lessons to reach this state and now he can stand in his Blackness proudly. This album tells the story of how he got to this place of self-worth and the stories of the varying complex but beautiful  perspectives about the Black experience. He is open and honest about sex, intimacy, imposter syndrome and how he navigates healthy love, toxic heartbreak, friendships and forgiveness. The core theme of this record is introspection with Jordan explaining, “This was a big theme for me in writing a lot of these songs because no one else has lived life in my shoes, I really had to take other peoples’ opinions & stories out of the writing and put myself at the forefront of everything. Which in turn, made me put the guitar down more and stand centre stage naked in a way. This new album for me feels even more personal now - I use more self language of “I” over “we” because all of these stories are about me and my life in even more depth than the first record touched upon, whilst covering more bases either through my own first person story telling of something current I’m dealing with or a past situation I’m using music to heal through. The debut was me figuring out shit, this album is me putting the last puzzle piece on the board.”

Jordan released his debut album ‘Foreigner' in March 2020 and a follow up EP, ‘Come Around’ in 2021, and this year has seen him appear on tracks with Jords, Che Lingo and blackwave. He’s taken to stages at Radio 1’s Big Weekend where he headlined the Introducing Stage in 2022, The Hundreds for BBC Introducing, Last Time Out and Bergen Fest and recently supported Gabzy at Somerset House. He's had support from Radio 1 & Radio 1Xtra, been awarded the PPL / PRS Momentum Fund and sold out multiple venues including Scala, Queen Elizabeth Hall and Village Underground.

Next year will see him take to stages in Birmingham, Manchester, Leeds and many more for an epic headline tour of the UK including a show at the iconic KOKO in London on 28 February  2024.
