Marcus Jordan Biography
Marcus Jordan is a preacher, praiser and former police officer whose boundless musical influences have shaped his limitless musical imagination. His music is reflective of his journey and the natural connection he has to the people his music touches.

The chart-topping and award-winning artist and songwriter began serving local churches at the age of seven after convincing his mother of his divine gift. Jordan continued to hone his craft and later accompanied artists in the Houston area. As a musician in the house band for Music World Entertainment, Jordan was blessed to accompany several of its notable R&B and Gospel artists, including Solange Knowles.

Jordan was happy being a member of Music World’s house band, even though he had a desire to be an artist himself. It wasn't until Solange Knowles complimented his voice during a fateful exchange that he began to actualize that desire. Soon after, Jordan released his first EP, “I Can,” and began singing at churches and events throughout his hometown of Houston, Texas. Jordan was fully focused on singing when he answered the call to succeed his father as pastor of the Saint Paul Missionary Baptist Church (now Praise City Family Church).

In 2021, Jordan released his debut full-length album Call On the Name. The album debuted at #3 on iTunes’ Christian/Gospel chart, bolstered by the chart-topping gospel radio single and title-track. Produced by Rodrick “Bubba” Dowling, the title track reached #1 on Billboard’s Gospel Airplay chart and stayed in the Top 30 for over 42 weeks. The song peaked at #17 on Billboard’s Hot Gospel Songs chart and earned a #32 position on Billboard's 2022 Year-End Gospel Airplay Songs chart.
