He then signed a record deal with his record company.[3]

Try My Love received favorable reviews from music critics. Matt Collar from AllMusic gave to the album 3 out of 5 stars and stated that "the album showcases Jordan's soulful if slight voice with a radio-ready, synth-heavy R&B production" and that "while the album does contain altogether too much filler, "Right Kind of Love"'s Todd Rundgren meets Andy Gibb melodic hook almost qualifies it as a classic of the decade."[13]
