Jordan Francis, better known as “TAPPER” (tap-per), is an independent Canadian recording artist from Brampton, Ontario. Beginning his professional career in 2018, Francis has built his brand over the years through his persistent releases, self-produced music videos and energetic performances. Many describe TAPPER’s artistic sound as a hybrid of modern Hip-Hop and trap – blending elements of old and new rhyming aesthetics.

Born in Scarborough, Ontario, TAPPER faced significant challenges growing up, including severe atopic eczema and chronic asthma. Despite these obstacles, he found solace and strength in music from a young age, recording demos and mixtapes at the age of 12. His experiences have fueled his passion and drive, inspiring others to overcome adversity and pursue their dreams.

In 2024, TAPPER reached a career milestone with his first-ever sold out headlining show at The Drake Underground – organized entirely by himself. From performing at music festivals like NXNE and Sled Island Calgary, to landing on numerous editorial playlists on Spotify – TAPPER has proven himself year after year, solidifying his position as next up on the industry’s radar.
