Jordy ft: Louis Rei - Too Much (Official Video)

Essex-based, North London-born rapper Jordy drops the video for his new single, ‘Too Much’, featuring WSTRN'S Louis Rei, and announces his forthcoming 8-track EP, ‘The Love Ting’, dropping 31st July. The ‘Too Much’ video directed by Shan Phearon (NInes/Potter Payper) puts the video vixens front and centre, with an overriding theme of noughties throughout. Jordy pays homage to some of this era's most iconic music videos, with subtle references to videos from Kanye West, Q Tip, and Nas. The ‘Too Much’ video sees Jordy and Louis Rei retreat from the limelight, jumping back and forth between Louis’ melodic chorus and the clever wordplay that has become synonymous with Jordy.

Admired for his penship, punchlines and flow, ‘The Love Ting’ sees Jordy adopting a more vulnerable approach to writing centred around the theme of love, and each track explores different aspects of this multifaceted emotion. Long-term collaborators OJ, Daniel Miles, and Midnight Phunk were on production duties, and they delivered an eclectic body of work, blending different genres and sounds, allowing Jordy to express himself freely. To accompany the release, Jordy has dropped the fifth episode of his interview series under the same name, ‘The Love Ting’. The series of interviews - with love at the core - explore different aspects of this complex emotion through Jordy's tongue and cheek lense. Episode five features personality Specz Gonzalez, who discusses monogamy, previous relationships and love songs.
