Christian pop artist Jordan Feliz has experienced this firsthand. So much so, in fact, that Feliz was forced to pump the breaks, taking two months off to reassess as 2019 came to a close and 2020 began.
“I just kind of realized how much I was holding my career almost as an idol above God and above my family. I just really lost myself,” the singer candidly admits. “All of a sudden, I hit a wall, and I just kind of self-destructed.”
Prior to detonating the grenade, Feliz was on top–of everything. His first radio single, “The River”–the title track from his critically-acclaimed Centricity Music debut–became a smash hit. Spending an unprecedented 12 weeks at No. 1, the chart-topping single was named ASCAP’s “Christian Music Song of the Year” and garnered Feliz his first Gold certification. Each of his five subsequent radio singles has landed in the Top 10 with “Witness” notching a second No. 1 for the singer. In addition, Feliz has been nominated for five Dove Awards, taking home the trophy for 2016’s “New Artist of the Year.” He’s toured with some of the biggest names in Christian music, including TobyMac, for KING & COUNTRY, Matthew West, Michael W. Smith and Crowder, among others; and in a short time, he’s risen to headliner status. When his highly-anticipated sophomore LP, FUTURE, released in 2018, it debuted at the top of the Billboard Christian Albums chart. Looking back, it’s hard to believe that just six years ago, Feliz was valeting cars in downtown Nashville.
“Record two, as of right now, was probably one of the roughest times of my career. Personally, I was just going through a really tough season,” he reveals of his latest LP. “I feel like I went from being a dude who was parking cars every day to, all of a sudden, being pulled in a million different directions.”- JORDAN FELIZ
