Jordin Sparks is a Contemporary R&B and Hip hop act. Their catalogue also touches House and Pop. Their sound grew out of Alicia Keys, Troop, Fantasia, Elijah Blake and Molly Kate Kestner. Those roots explain a lot about how Jordin Sparks arrange songs and choose their tones. They run in the same orbit as Leona Lewis, Keri Hilson, Kelly Clarkson, Paula DeAnda and Jesse McCartney, sharing audiences, venues and reference points rather than a straight line of influence. Their influence carried into Samantha Jade, Chris Brown, Blake Lewis, Scotty McCreery and Fantasy Ride, where the same ideas turn up rearranged for a later generation. Altogether the chart holds 59 connections around Jordin Sparks, reaching back through Alicia Keys and forward to Samantha Jade.
