Jordan Alexander appears as Purdy in BMF season 4

BMF continues the story of the Flenory brothers, who heavily relied on their family's loyalty for their rise from the streets of southwest Detroit to global fame. Unfortunately, it is their steadfast belief in family loyalty that eventually gives way to betrayal.

Jordan Alexander's Purdy is a rising music star whom Meech and Terry sign upon launching their new record label. In an interview on iHeartRadio's The Breakfast Club podcast on June 4, 2025, Derryck "Big Tank" Thornton, the show's music supervisor, and Da'Vinchi, who plays Terry in the show, opened up about working with Alexander.

"Yeah, Jordan is actually dope. She's so dope. She's from Canada. Oh, she had an interesting way to see in life. But it's still like the States. Canada is like basically like us, but they just say things different," Da'Vinchi said.

He added:

"And I was inviting her over to the house and everyone and that we just started talking and I started picking her brain. I was like, "Yo, this is fire!" Like it was. She was a real artist, you know, and an actress."

Thornton also noted that Alexander’s real-life experience as a singer added authenticity to her performance in BMF season 4.
