Here is his bio:
Sly “Pyper” Jordan was born on Nov.18th in Dade City, Fl and raised in St. Petersburg, Fl. Since a very young age Sly has been a gifted musician, with a great ear for melodies and harmonies. At Bocaciega High School he was lead by his mentor Frank T. Williams III to a musical awaking; being introduced to such Jazz greats as Miles Davis, John Coltrane, and Charlie Parker. Becoming proficient on the saxophone, he became a permanent fixture in the All County/All State Jazz Ensembles which lead to him becoming the first recipient of the Clear Water Chamber of Commerce Jazz Scholarship. While attending the University of South Florida he toured through Europe with the USF Jazz Ensemble. As he continued to play in Jazz clubs and different venues, he also began to write and produce songs for different local artist. Although the gigs continued, the song writing and producing opportunities began to arise and became more lucrative as he (along with the industry) discovered that he had yet another God given talent. Sly was digging into this creative industry on all levels; lyric and melody writing, producing, engineering, and vocal arranging and couching. This new calling requested his presents in the Big Apple where after a short stay he attained his fist publishing deal with PolyGram Music Group. This initiated his relationship with Kevin Hall who at the time was just an A&R rep. This affiliation would prove valuable to date since Sly’s current publishing company is Rondor Music (Universal), where Kevin is currently VP of Urban Music. Hall’s connections mixed with Sly’s talent lead to writing for such artist as Jaheim, Donnell Jones, Debra Cox, The O'Jays, New Edition, Shareefa, Jessica Simpson, JoJo and Kelly Rowland to name a few. With Sly’s hard work and consistency of putting out solid tracks, he caught the eyes of many pioneers in the industry. He began to work on different projects at Aftermath with the legendary Dr. Dre including working with artist such as 50 Cent, and the renowned beat master Timberland. With his sharp ear, hard work and undeniable gift coming to light more and more artists and produces wanted to work with him. Through the new doors quickly opening for him he began working with producer JR Rotem of Epic Records. They worked on tracks for several artist such as Stat Quo, Klyde Carson, Spit Fire, and the over night success Sean Kingston writing the hook of his &035;1 hit song “Beautiful Girls” and on several other songs on his debut album. With Sly’s recent success, more and more artist and producers have come searching for his raw talent and soulful sound. As he continues his work at Aftermath with several new artists signed to the label such as Tiffany, he is also assisting with the final and most anticipated album of Dr. Dre’s legendary career “Detox”. Sly is also currently working with virtuoso producer Eric Hudson on the long awaited new Bandy album. He is still collaborating with friends and colleagues that he has worked with along the way such as The Justice League, Hot Box Entertainment, and CB Productions to name a few. He is also venturing out with his own independent label Tha Piecemakerz out of Macon, GA. They have taken advantage of the internet and become one of the most popular groups on several different internet radio stations gaining them recognition on there own accord. With several song surfacing on different radio stations down south, Tha Piecemakerz, featuring Sly “Pyper” Jordan as the lead singer are quickly becoming a household name in the underground indie music scenes. Sly is and will always be a force to be reckoned with in this industry. Not only as a song writer with a knack for lyrics that touch the soul, but also as a artist that vocally and instrumentally has the ability to touch the hearts of all. From 8-80 people of all ages and races will forever be touched by all that Sly has done and will continue to do to leave this industry better than it was when he first began. Undoubtedly, once you’ve been exposed to his ability you too will feel this genius is a great addition to the game. He’s personal quote says it best “Health, Wealth and Prosperity to All Under Heaven.”

Backing vocals on the chorus, and it was Slim on the chorus.

I think we will hear a lot of Sly hooks on Detox and on future Aftermath releases, he could easily become the next Nate Dogg 8) ;D

Man I give him props for getting ahead. People shouldnt hate on this fool cause he sounds similar to Nate Dogg, thats not fair to this fools career. I understand that because Nate passed recently some people are gonna hate even more but thats not a reason to hate on this fool. I thought the hook for "Fast Lane" off the Bad Meets Evil record was fucking amazing. This dude is going to fill the void that Nate left. Like or it not, thats whats going to happen. People are tired of hearing little pussies singing on Hooks. Nate never sounded like a pussy, neither does this guy.

There's only one Nate Dogg. Like it or not, that's how it goes. Ain't gonna be no next Nate Dogg or Tupac or anyone else.

I didnt say he was the "Next Nate Dogg". I said he would fill the void that Nate left. There is a difference between the two. I agree there will only be one Nate Dogg. This dude Sly is an artist in his own right too, and as the music continues to come out we will see that for ourselves. When I say Nate left a void, I mean it in the sense that the current list of in demand singers all sound like fucking pussies. Lloyd, Ray J, K Young, Ne-Yo, and whoever else you can think of at the moment. They sing like they're singing to bitches. Nate never did that when he got on hip hop records. I have yet to see this guy do it either. Its my opinion and Im sticking to it.

But there's no filling a void when it comes to artists. That person is gone. You might have artists who remind you of them or who have similar styles but you only get so much time and then it's done. They either retire or pass on but that's it. People want to draw all these parallels between the greats of now and the greats from the past but that void is permanent.

I didn't know he was on "Seduction" & "So Bad" from Em's "Recovery" album
