New York City Mayor Eric Adams’ son appeared on the Albanian equivalent of American Idol, belting out his drill rap song, even after his father called to ban the genre of music earlier this year.

Jordan Coleman, 26, who goes by Jayoo, appeared on Kënga Magjike, a singing show that translates to Magic Song, on Wednesday evening for the semi-finals. 

He sang his song Itsy Bitsy, which he also performed on the show in September, while wearing a daring red and black jacket – sans shirt – and black sunglasses. 

Coleman belted out: ‘Itsy bitsy, wanna twerk that a** and shake them t**ies. I support it, s**t, she’s gorgeous. Still, she gotta stay committed.’ 

The father and son have publicly disagreed on drill rap, with Adams branding the genre as a glorification of violence. The politician was first introduced to the genre through Coleman.

He has since encouraged Twitter and Instagram to pull drill rap videos off the internet, saying he was ‘alarmed by the use of social media to really over-proliferate this violence in our communities.’ 

‘This is contributing to the violence that we are seeing all over the country. It’s one of the rivers we have to dam,’ he said at a press conference in February. 

‘You have a civic and corporate responsibility,’ he said. ‘We are alarmed by the use of social media to really over-proliferate this violence in our communities. This is contributing to the violence that we are seeing all over the country.’

His plea came after several drill rappers were attacked and killed in the city, including 18-year-old Jayquan McKenley, who went by Chii Wvttz.

McKenley was killed in an ambush while sitting in a parked car at the corner of Greene and Lewis Avenues in Brooklyn after finishing a recording session at a nearby studio. 

‘I didn’t know Jayquan, but his death hit me hard because the more I found out about Jayquan’s story, the more I saw how many times he had been failed by a system that is supposed to help boys like him,’ Adams said at the time.  

However, Coleman called his father ‘outrageous’ and said ‘you can’t ban a genre of music – any kind of genre of music.’ 

The rapper said he had texted his father about the remarks and told Adams ‘you cannot speak for me.’

‘I have drill rappers on our label as clients, and I like drill music. You cannot ban a genre. And I’m not sure why you said what you said, but I disagree,’ Coleman, who works for Jay-Z’s Roc Nation in the film department, told his dad, according to Complex. 

Adams, who is said to have a good relationship with his son, replied: ‘I understand what you’re saying, and you’re allowed to disagree. We come from different times.’ 

The drill rapper has been promoting his appearance on the Albanian show for months, saying that he wants to be an ‘international rap artist’ and that appearing on the show was a ‘major step in that direction.’ 

Coleman passed through to the finals and will appear on the show’s finale Saturday.

What is drill rap music?

Drill music is a sub-genre of hip-hop that is characterized by a dark, slow tempo, straightforward lyrics that focus on the dangers of criminal activity with an emotionless delivery.

The nihilistic rap style began in Chicago in the 2010s but has since expanded across the world. 

The style of hip-hop has accumulated a strong following in Brooklyn and is accused of being a driving factor in the recent rise of gun violence affecting up-and-coming rappers.
