Prince Jordan reconnects with fans

Jordan Prince, an electrical engineer by profession, ventured into gospel music in response to a calling of ministering the Word through song and hymns.

SOUTH AFRICA-based Zimbabwean gospel musician, Prince Jordan says the amazing showers of praise and honour in acknowledgement of his debut album, Ndorumbidza, has compelled him to embark on a national tour.

Jordan Prince, an electrical engineer by profession, ventured into gospel music in response to a calling of ministering the Word through song and hymns.

Speaking during an interview with Standard Style, the gospel musician, who started composing gospel melodies as early as late 1990s disclosed that as much as he was gifted, he had to seek God’s blessing for him to launch the expedition.

“Growing up, I loved music and I knew that singing was my calling, yet I never had the voice for music. I still remember being laughed at in church for a flawed performance. But that never deterred me from pursuing my calling,” Prince said.

“As early as around 1999, I had already known and established that I was someday going to perform my Godly inspired music to a lot of people. And it led me to pray seriously for a voice to sing. And the confidence to perform regardless of how hard it became for me.”

Prince grew up in the resort town of Kariba.

He said owing it to the support from his family, mentors and fans, he  was considering to start collaborating and performing alongside other seasoned and long-established musicians as he builds his career as a fulltime gospel musician. 

“I am yet to stage concerts as a solo artiste, but from the support I am getting from family, friends and Christian communities across the globe, the exact time is coming and I am confident that it is in the near future, our musical company will be performing at gospel concerts in and around Zimbabwe,” he said.

Jordan who was mentored by a renowned Zimbabwean cleric and musician, Pastor Haisa, and seasoned Zimbabwean lawyers and musician, Ivy Kombo said under his belt has over 40 unrecorded albums.

“Through the guidance of the Holy Spirit, I penned more than 46 songs ready to be recorded,” explained the lanky musician, currently in the country for his homecoming tour, promoting his debut offering Ndorumbidza.

The album carries eight tracks, including Munenyasha and Jerusarema.
