On the other hand, Brother Jordan is still trying to make a name for himself and is the lesser-known of the two.
However, as per New York-based comedian Sherrod Small, Jordan spent hours in the basement of Rock's New Jersey home watching old tapes to help comedian Rock prepare for his gig.
"Once I saw that, I called Tony at midnight and said, 'Jordan is going to be a comedian, too," 'stand-up comic and cousin to the Rock siblings, Small recalled.
Jordan brought up in Georgetown, South Carolina, started living on his own at the tender age of eighteen. He dropped out of high school and began performing at gigs courtesy of his brother Tony who would ask sibling Jordan to open for him during his shows in New York.
Jordan recalled how Tony initially refused to take him on the road but at the same time filled him with helpful trade tips.
Relatively successful performer Tony is known to be a helping hand to his aspiring brother. As per their mom, comedian Tony has always maintained a soft spot for his younger brother and acted as a guiding light.
Jordan explained how Tony was always supportive of his brother and helped him with suggestions whenever needed, unlike their brother Rock. The latter was always surrounded by a circle of high-caliber people and "is very socially awkward," as per Kenny, another sibling of actor/comedian rock.
