Speaker 1 (00:11):
What's up y'all? Shore girl lex P. I'm with my
girl Drey and the Cold from Poor Minds and we
were our brother DC Young Fly of eighty five South Show.
Y'all know, were cutting up with the Backwoods backstage all
right and joining us on the couch. We have d
one and only Jordan Okay, period?
Speaker 2 (00:36):
All right?
Speaker 3 (00:36):
Cool?
Speaker 1 (00:37):
I have to ask you this, Where did you get
the name? Jordan's how you're from?
Speaker 3 (00:40):
Did you get that from Meg? Well? Yeah, see, I
think it was it was a joke that I said.
I didn't change the name before I did the videos.
I played sports before this. I played baseball. What was this?
As an outfielder? We they're gonna draft me to New York.
I was gonna be a first basement.
Speaker 1 (00:55):
Wow.
Speaker 3 (00:56):
I worked on I.
Speaker 4 (00:57):
Know you go to base by what I mean?
Speaker 3 (01:00):
I worked on it, But no, because I obviously baseball
you got a squad all the time, and Megan was
obviously an historic rise. So I was like, all of
who drawing this stallion? And I's never changed. I forgot
to and I was like, and it stuck. I'm like,
I'm just gonna keep it. Hopefully she gives me grace
with it.
Speaker 5 (01:18):
So I wanted to ask you, how did you get
into being a food influencer because you have a mass
so many followers on siktok and Instagram, Like, how did.
Speaker 1 (01:28):
You eat it?
Speaker 2 (01:29):
Anyway you go?
Speaker 3 (01:32):
But you gotta eat boy, all right, that's the first
thing I'm looking for. I was, well, no, honestly, it
was just I mean, I love just doing honestly anything.
Everything was just so fun for me. I started doing videos.
It's anxiety exercises. Oh wow, I'm tremendously anxious, very introverted.
So doing videos is kind of just to feel. I
don't know what just happened. It was a bug.
Speaker 4 (01:50):
Yeah, say very say very boud talk about.
Speaker 3 (01:58):
Food feel So I really I started doing what I
did videos, and I was like my work ninety five jobs,
and whenever I had like an awful customer, like a
bad coworker, I'll just be like, y'all, let me tell
you what happened yesterday. And I was doing it that
way and people really liked it. And then when I
found out they like food, I was like, well, let's
do that too, because I've been baking since I was
like four or five years old, and I just started
cooking three years ago, so it's super easy.
Speaker 1 (02:19):
So TikTok to me is one of the like fastest
rising like social media apps. But also what comes with
that is you have to stay on top of the
spring well because I feel like this. With YouTube, it's
long form content. So people just like they want to
sit and watch eighty five, they go sit and watch
eighty five. They and watch four minds. But with TikTok,
(02:40):
you have to really keep up with the trends and
stay fresh with all that stuff. So having twenty million followers,
that's a lot of followers. How do you stay relevant? Well,
you know, the world like TikTok.
Speaker 3 (02:52):
Well that's that's kind of the funny thing about it.
And people always hate this answer, but you know, the
secret to it is not really a secret. Is the
thing is like you just do what you like to do.
You feel social media is a thing where people are
gonna love what you put out there if it's good enough,
like for them, it's good enough for you too. My
brother says something that sticks with me to this day, Uh,
we see an objectively good videos because it's gonna do good,
it's gonna do something, gives an audience something, right, get
(03:14):
they can take away from it while there's information, education, food,
what have you. So you don't have to follow the
trends are happening day by day. You just give them
something that you find value and they do too, and
they share it with everybody else, and then you can
continue to do fun stuff like this for example, like
fun facts like like like lemon juice can erase highlight
or ink, and people don't highlighter inks. You have to
(03:35):
highlight something, you can just take a que to put
lemon juice on. It races a highlighter off, but people
don't know that. So like, but it's crazy.
Speaker 4 (03:43):
We drank some shit, you raise highlight ink, you feel like.
Speaker 3 (03:49):
But again, it's just that. So staying true to that
and being appreciative of the audience, they'll feedback into you.
So that's kind of how it is. It's fun though,
especially with the collaborations. That's the funnest thing in the world.
Speaker 1 (03:59):
So yeah, talk about that method man collaboration. People always
talk of that. Y'all look like twins, and y'all cud.
Speaker 4 (04:08):
Joy Cuba good and little medic Cuba this.
Speaker 3 (04:13):
Boy chot okay. Look no, Honestly, after we did our
first thing with keV we did. It was Kevin Hart.
And then after that, I watched Soul Plane for the
first time, which pleased be easy on me that but
I watched Sole Playing for the first time and I
saw Meth was in it, and I was like, yo,
myth is hilarious. He's a funny dude. So I was.
I went to Roscoe's and I sent to him a
d M. I said, y'all got an idea, and by
the time I got done with my meal, hehit me.
(04:34):
He's like, let's do it. And so I fly out
to New York the day before the Super Bowl. He
didn't know what was going on, didn't know what we
were doing. But it took like maybe ten minutes to
film and I left and he was like, oh, once,
it's going to go up in a week or two.
I said, it's gona go up in five minutes, and
so I posted it five minutes later and it went
crazy and that's crazy and there.
Speaker 1 (04:49):
So so you got up and flew to New York
to do a ten minute film and then I bounced it.
That's crazy. But I think stuff like that is what
people need to But then in the case, yeah, that's
that's a lot.
Speaker 3 (05:03):
Well, but that's the thing is that the purpose of it,
there was no purpose behind. I just wanted to exist
in the world. It just sounds fun to feed my heart,
to feed everybody else's too. So when I told met
about it, I said, there's no ulterior motive. You want
to put something in that you can, but it's just
ten minutes in, I'm out nothing else. And from there,
I mean, we did five videos together at this point
because he just thankfully he allowed me to have that
level of trust. And so I mean, I ain't know,
(05:24):
he's like a big brother. He's really he's awesome.
Speaker 6 (05:25):
He's awesome coming from the you know, the social media.
You know, that's my that's my stomping ground. But everything
is has these different times in this different pace. Yes,
tip top, I ain't got the energies.
Speaker 3 (05:41):
I feel super old.
Speaker 4 (05:42):
When it comes to you niggas.
Speaker 3 (05:45):
Talk, I'm like, that's funny.
Speaker 6 (05:48):
You know divine. Oh, I'm like, I'm who is sis?
You're trying to keep the bullying?
Speaker 2 (05:55):
Do say someone that's CZ But just speaking on speaking
on different you know what I'm saying, the different waves
of the different lanes. Man Like I admire y'all.
Speaker 6 (06:13):
That's on TikTok because I'm like, bro, I remember when
I was on Vine, and it takes some consistency to
just get there. With TikTok, you can't relax.
Speaker 3 (06:21):
No, with TikTok.
Speaker 6 (06:23):
Facebook, Instagram, you could post chill two three day day
to come back talk.
Speaker 4 (06:28):
You ain't gonna make it doing that with that process.
Speaker 6 (06:31):
So tell us that process when it comes to you.
I know you're thinking of a video right now because
you got to feed them people.
Speaker 3 (06:36):
You know what I'm saying. I know I already. I
filmed the video twenty minutes. I just posted it, so
I said, oh wow, But but you have to understand,
like that's the thing is that because it's right with TikTok.
First off, like hey, everybody had watched you before, like
you're the founding father of it. People give the respect
to you cause you know what I'm saying, you really
you guys in that era set the bar for us
to do this anyway, So that flowers, those flowers should
(06:56):
be giving those you know what I'm saying, Like this
doesn't happen without y'all. And so with that, yes, it's
way more fast paced. I'm also old like I feel old,
like I don't. I'm not. You have to understand though,
like some of the other people, they're quick, that's all
they think about is the content. For me, doing videos
is just so much fun. It's almost like you just
you got to stop yourself from doing it. And I
(07:17):
keep telling people, don't do this unless you actually like
you have fun with it. Like if it comes to business,
it comes, that's the thing. And if you can answer yourself,
I would do this for free. I would do this
if nobody was watching. If you can answer those two questions,
then do it. But if you can't, if you're trying
to do this for the fame or the money of it,
don't do it. Because I promise he was gonna feel
like a job. And with this comes anxiety, It comes
(07:37):
to prescious you guys all know, it comes with things
that you weren't really you had to teach yourself how
to do right, y'all. Was like the first generation from
your family is to break through to get this level up.
You fee what I'm saying, like to what you got
to set the bar for them. So unless you're ready
to take that responsibility, don't do it. But if you
are fully ready for it. It's the funnest single the world.
Making videos is.
Speaker 6 (07:57):
So fun you lit like I even we even took
like pages out a book from people like that was
before it is like King Batch and these storms. So
it was like they was flipping cars at like twenty thirteen.
Speaker 4 (08:07):
Yeah, so it like they needed in skills was up
the park.
Speaker 3 (08:10):
Look man, And that's another thing too, there's no manual
to this. You feel me Like, there's people who have
high production videos and be coming out with crazy and
then you got myself, I'm in a bathroom, like you
feel what I'm saying in and out I'm out. But
but again, like there's an artist to all of it.
So you got to give respect to people who just
take the leap to do it, you know, dot matter
how big the following is, like you take your time
(08:31):
to sit down, you talk with them like they have questions,
answer them. Feel me like, because it should be a community.
I will say this, I won't take too much your time.
But like, like when you see social media people break
through into the mainstream media, it shouldn't be jealousy. It
should be prized.
Speaker 6 (08:43):
Yeah, because think about that, like we'all can learn from
each other.
Speaker 3 (08:47):
You feel mean, not only that, like that if anything
that shows that you can do it, like you that
you breaking through shows them that, okay, we could do this.
And if you can hold the door open for other people,
you tell them, like I promise you, that's gonna spread
out more than trying to keep the door closed. So
just just be pride prideful that you know this is
is bleeding into the traditional medium.
Speaker 1 (09:06):
I know, how many videos do you post today? On average?
Speaker 3 (09:09):
Oh gosh, I'll tell you what. So I post by
the day on the day. It's not written, so I
do it right there and if whatever comes in then
and out. So because of that obviously keeps me very
current by the day. But I'll probably film I mean
nine ten videos at day and maybe one goes out
and the rest of them I'll just dump it and
the next day I'll just do something else. So because
my mind it's just always kind of going, so it
(09:31):
kind of eases that. So when I talk to people,
I'm less scatterbrained, you know what I mean. It's like
a workout. So like I may post one or two
videos a day, but maybe nine get film can't get filmed, im.
Speaker 4 (09:44):
I ain't, so I was recorded. I ain't got oh,
I ain't got the pace. I ain't got to pay
for him now post last week.
Speaker 3 (09:54):
I'm two weeks ago. I did that ship, alright, I
see y'all next time.
Speaker 6 (10:02):
Imagine how many video they don't saw within them two
weeks though, I know.
Speaker 5 (10:08):
Every day.
Speaker 6 (10:09):
But then that's the thing with the content space. It's like,
all right, you feed them something to make them come come,
follow you come to come because if you continuously feed
in a certain situation in your mind or just only
think about.
Speaker 4 (10:23):
That particular thing.
Speaker 6 (10:24):
So when I was stuck on Instagram, I was like, damn,
I can't have an Instagram mind if I want to
shoot movies.
Speaker 3 (10:30):
But here's the thing, though, because you're right, it's a
give and take. You got to pick and choose from
the artist self. Because with Instagram, the toughest algorithm is
going to be TikTok it is. It's just it's the
toughest one. But because of that, it really works you out.
It makes you stronger when you make your content outside
of it. And when it comes to the film industry,
when the TV industry, which we've been involved with, it's
(10:51):
where they're also trying to find how can we be
able to deliver this in the most authentic and natural
way that people can relate to. It's all about relatability
right within film, within the anything else. It's an art,
so you can take aspects and put it into the films.
I think the bad part is like if you don't
know what parts to take because you got you got
you know movies TV where they just like, let's get
all the most lit people in this and it's gonna
(11:11):
go crazy. It don't work. You gotta no chemistry, So
you gotta find elements to it and get people that
actually make sense and it's beautiful. It's crazy, feel me,
well know what he's talking about.
Speaker 4 (11:22):
That why he got a twenty million followers.
Speaker 5 (11:23):
But you said that you would be having fun with it,
but when was what was that one video that you
recall where you was like, Okay, I'm about to be
out of here with these, like I could really make
a living for this, make a career from this.
Speaker 3 (11:36):
You gotta understand, Like I'm certain all y'all could attest
to this, but my parents very traditional nine to five
was its stabilities. That's what they want, that's what they need,
That's what I want to need. Because I learned from them,
so I didn't quit my job. I wasn't going through
I had nine million followers, but I was still working
my piece of job. I wouldn't quit it even though
I was only getting like four hundred dollars a paycheck.
But it didn't matter if I was funny, if I
(11:57):
was sad, if I was happy, I get paid and
I can get that money in my parents, I was straight.
So by the time because COVID, I had to quit
because my grandmother was compromised, so I didn't want to
get her sick. I was applying for jobs. I was
going live like I wanted to keep the jobs my
management helped me like, and just staying busy with the
social media to where I was too busy to go
back to apply to jobs. So by that point I'm like,
(12:19):
all right, I'm gonna just focus on this. But the
moment where I realized, okay, this could be something special
was the Kevin Hart collaboration. Only because I was the
first time I ever had to write and write for someone.
You feel me because like, again, all my videos are
just off. I never wrote, so writing for someone when
you got a prep for it, it was hard. They
had me write seven different scripts out. Then I had
(12:40):
to really like like and just hone it out. It's
all my idea, and they gave me that freedom. So
when it came out and people liked it and they
were laughing at the jokes keV said that I wrote,
I was like, Yo, this is crazy, and it was
so I loved it. So from then I was craving.
I'm like, let me like, I want to keep doing
the groundwork so we can keep doing these little side missions.
It's just a lot of fun. So and you also,
(13:00):
I want to be able to show people that you
can do things in the social media. The things are possible, right,
we just had to stay from commercial. I want people
to show that it was possible. Right. I'm trying to
work with names I don't even say yet so they
know they want to work with. Last thing is we're
about to do it. I want to, but I want to.
(13:21):
I want to. I want to. I want to show
people that it's possible, it's possible. Just come genuine and
be a good human being. Don't try to use people.
Just try to learn from people, and don't If you
keep that about you, the sky is the limit. Like,
just keep going like, don't don't use people like know
that human beings are humans regardless of status.
Speaker 1 (13:41):
Right you'll talk how you got twenty million down taktok,
twelve million on ig. So out of those all those
people in case they don't they aren't following you, let
them know where to find you at everything you got
coming up and all that good stuff.
Speaker 3 (13:56):

filmed the video twenty minutes. I just posted it, so
I said, oh wow, But but you have to understand,
like that's the thing is that because it's right with TikTok.
First off, like hey, everybody had watched you before, like
you're the founding father of it. People give the respect
to you cause you know what I'm saying, you really
you guys in that era set the bar for us
to do this anyway, So that flowers, those flowers should
(06:56):
be giving those you know what I'm saying, Like this
doesn't happen without y'all. And so with that, yes, it's
way more fast paced. I'm also old like I feel old,
like I don't. I'm not. You have to understand though,
like some of the other people, they're quick, that's all
they think about is the content. For me, doing videos
is just so much fun. It's almost like you just
you got to stop yourself from doing it. And I
(07:17):
keep telling people, don't do this unless you actually like
you have fun with it. Like if it comes to business,
it comes, that's the thing. And if you can answer yourself,
I would do this for free. I would do this
if nobody was watching. If you can answer those two questions,
then do it. But if you can't, if you're trying
to do this for the fame or the money of it,
don't do it. Because I promise he was gonna feel
like a job. And with this comes anxiety, It comes
(07:37):
to prescious you guys all know, it comes with things
that you weren't really you had to teach yourself how
to do right, y'all. Was like the first generation from
your family is to break through to get this level up.
You fee what I'm saying, like to what you got
to set the bar for them. So unless you're ready
to take that responsibility, don't do it. But if you
are fully ready for it. It's the funnest single the world.
Making videos is.
Speaker 6 (07:57):
So fun you lit like I even we even took
like pages out a book from people like that was
before it is like King Batch and these storms. So
it was like they was flipping cars at like twenty thirteen.
Speaker 4 (08:07):
Yeah, so it like they needed in skills was up
the park.
Speaker 3 (08:10):
Look man, And that's another thing too, there's no manual
to this. You feel me Like, there's people who have
high production videos and be coming out with crazy and
then you got myself, I'm in a bathroom, like you
feel what I'm saying in and out I'm out. But
but again, like there's an artist to all of it.
So you got to give respect to people who just
take the leap to do it, you know, dot matter
how big the following is, like you take your time
(08:31):
to sit down, you talk with them like they have questions,
answer them. Feel me like, because it should be a community.
I will say this, I won't take too much your time.
But like, like when you see social media people break
through into the mainstream media, it shouldn't be jealousy. It
should be prized.
Speaker 6 (08:43):
Yeah, because think about that, like we'all can learn from
each other.
Speaker 3 (08:47):
You feel mean, not only that, like that if anything
that shows that you can do it, like you that
you breaking through shows them that, okay, we could do this.
And if you can hold the door open for other people,
you tell them, like I promise you, that's gonna spread
out more than trying to keep the door closed. So
just just be pride prideful that you know this is
is bleeding into the traditional medium.
Speaker 1 (09:06):
I know, how many videos do you post today? On average?
Speaker 3 (09:09):
Oh gosh, I'll tell you what. So I post by
the day on the day. It's not written, so I
do it right there and if whatever comes in then
and out. So because of that obviously keeps me very
current by the day. But I'll probably film I mean
nine ten videos at day and maybe one goes out
and the rest of them I'll just dump it and
the next day I'll just do something else. So because
my mind it's just always kind of going, so it
(09:31):
kind of eases that. So when I talk to people,
I'm less scatterbrained, you know what I mean. It's like
a workout. So like I may post one or two
videos a day, but maybe nine get film can't get filmed, im.
Speaker 4 (09:44):
I ain't, so I was recorded. I ain't got oh,
I ain't got the pace. I ain't got to pay
for him now post last week.
Speaker 3 (09:54):
I'm two weeks ago. I did that ship, alright, I
see y'all next time.
Speaker 6 (10:02):
Imagine how many video they don't saw within them two
weeks though, I know.
Speaker 5 (10:08):
Every day.
Speaker 6 (10:09):
But then that's the thing with the content space. It's like,
all right, you feed them something to make them come come,
follow you come to come because if you continuously feed
in a certain situation in your mind or just only
think about.
Speaker 4 (10:23):
That particular thing.
Speaker 6 (10:24):
So when I was stuck on Instagram, I was like, damn,
I can't have an Instagram mind if I want to
shoot movies.
Speaker 3 (10:30):
But here's the thing, though, because you're right, it's a
give and take. You got to pick and choose from
the artist self. Because with Instagram, the toughest algorithm is
going to be TikTok it is. It's just it's the
toughest one. But because of that, it really works you out.
It makes you stronger when you make your content outside
of it. And when it comes to the film industry,
when the TV industry, which we've been involved with, it's
(10:51):
where they're also trying to find how can we be
able to deliver this in the most authentic and natural
way that people can relate to. It's all about relatability
right within film, within the anything else. It's an art,
so you can take aspects and put it into the films.
I think the bad part is like if you don't
know what parts to take because you got you got
you know movies TV where they just like, let's get
all the most lit people in this and it's gonna
(11:11):
go crazy. It don't work. You gotta no chemistry, So
you gotta find elements to it and get people that
actually make sense and it's beautiful. It's crazy, feel me,
well know what he's talking about.
Speaker 4 (11:22):
That why he got a twenty million followers.
Speaker 5 (11:23):
But you said that you would be having fun with it,
but when was what was that one video that you
recall where you was like, Okay, I'm about to be
out of here with these, like I could really make
a living for this, make a career from this.
Speaker 3 (11:36):
You gotta understand, Like I'm certain all y'all could attest
to this, but my parents very traditional nine to five
was its stabilities. That's what they want, that's what they need,
That's what I want to need. Because I learned from them,
so I didn't quit my job. I wasn't going through
I had nine million followers, but I was still working
my piece of job. I wouldn't quit it even though
I was only getting like four hundred dollars a paycheck.
But it didn't matter if I was funny, if I
(11:57):
was sad, if I was happy, I get paid and
I can get that money in my parents, I was straight.
So by the time because COVID, I had to quit
because my grandmother was compromised, so I didn't want to
get her sick. I was applying for jobs. I was
going live like I wanted to keep the jobs my
management helped me like, and just staying busy with the
social media to where I was too busy to go
back to apply to jobs. So by that point I'm like,
(12:19):
all right, I'm gonna just focus on this. But the
moment where I realized, okay, this could be something special
was the Kevin Hart collaboration. Only because I was the
first time I ever had to write and write for someone.
You feel me because like, again, all my videos are
just off. I never wrote, so writing for someone when
you got a prep for it, it was hard. They
had me write seven different scripts out. Then I had
(12:40):
to really like like and just hone it out. It's
all my idea, and they gave me that freedom. So
when it came out and people liked it and they
were laughing at the jokes keV said that I wrote,
I was like, Yo, this is crazy, and it was
so I loved it. So from then I was craving.
I'm like, let me like, I want to keep doing
the groundwork so we can keep doing these little side missions.
It's just a lot of fun. So and you also,
(13:00):
I want to be able to show people that you
can do things in the social media. The things are possible, right,
we just had to stay from commercial. I want people
to show that it was possible. Right. I'm trying to
work with names I don't even say yet so they
know they want to work with. Last thing is we're
about to do it. I want to, but I want to.
(13:21):
I want to. I want to. I want to show
people that it's possible, it's possible. Just come genuine and
be a good human being. Don't try to use people.
Just try to learn from people, and don't If you
keep that about you, the sky is the limit. Like,
just keep going like, don't don't use people like know
that human beings are humans regardless of status.
Speaker 1 (13:41):
Right you'll talk how you got twenty million down taktok,
twelve million on ig. So out of those all those
people in case they don't they aren't following you, let
them know where to find you at everything you got
coming up and all that good stuff.
