We’ve all woken up the morning after being out with friends and meeting someone new that we felt we connected with. Laying in bed, unsure if it was more the gin and tonics talking (just my preference, insert your desired vice if necessary), or something a little deeper. Real potential, or simply epidermal? In his new single, “Lil Baby Crush”, Jordan Ward explores these feelings of possibility exactly how it feels. Upbeat, positive in the way that something without real meaning can be, but also stretching for purpose and perceived desire. With Smino-esque cadence and manipulation of vocals, Jordan Ward stands with his audience, patient and content, anticipating potential.
