Jordan Cracknell isn’t your average debut artist. A former Wall Street financier, bestselling author, and outspoken advocate for women in business, Cracknell has now turned her talents toward the music world—and she’s doing it with a bang. Her debut single, ‘Gordon Gekko’, premiering exclusively on Music Crowns, is a fierce, dancefloor-ready anthem that takes aim at gender stereotypes with biting wit and booming beats. Co-written with Love Island music producer Tom Marlow, ‘Gordon Gekko’ reclaims the narrative made famous by the 1987 film Wall Street, transforming the ruthless masculinity of Michael Douglas’ character into a bold, female-fronted manifesto. Packed with retro synths, feminist fire, and an addictive house/dance pulse, the track places Cracknell firmly on the map as an artist to watch.
It Flips the Finance Bro Narrative on Its Head
Inspired by the viral “Man in Finance” trend, Cracknell delivers a sharp, feminist response—proving that ambition, power, and drive aren’t just reserved for the boys.
It’s a Certified Dancefloor Banger
With high-octane house beats, 80s-style synths, and a bassline you can feel in your chest, this track is made for movement—from the club to your headphones.
She’s the Real Deal
Jordan isn’t playing dress-up. As a former financier and published author, she brings first-hand experience of the high-stakes world her lyrics inhabit.
It Channels Icons with a Fresh Twist
Fans of Marina, Raye, and Fred Again will love the sonic palette Cracknell serves up—familiar, but with a voice that’s distinctly her own.
It’s Only the Beginning
This debut marks the start of what promises to be a genre-defying career. Cracknell is bringing brains, beats, and a bold message to pop—expect more power moves soon.
