Grateful for innumerable achievements, awards and honors such as a GRAMMY win and nomination for Best Reggae Album. Gramps, Peetah and Mr. Mojo make up the Iconic culturally driven band that has bridged continents and styles of Reggae with their latest offering “LOYALTY”. An album that was not only created across several continents but saw its completion done in an unorthodox way with all three brothers in different locations. Mojo was in Kenya focusing on the group’s philanthropic efforts, while Gramps was traveling around the world healing people with his immediate family’s Masya CBD products and Peetah was in Miami, Florida anchoring the production. That meant they had to use technology to bring them together in one studio while orchestrating the finishing touches on their new masterpiece. Longevity and consistency are what defines icon. Morgan Heritage are a true testament of the latter as the band’s twelfth studio album is slated for release summer 2019.

The lyrical prowess lurking in the heart of the various songs will captivate attentive listeners throughout the assorted tracks. The stand out productions all manage to embrace showy instrumental breaks that allow individual artists and instruments to shine on their own merit, yet all songs are uniformly geared towards further elevating the music.
The new album delivers the nostalgic Morgan Heritage sound that fans recognize as “Rockaz”. As prolific lyrics runs a gamut of topics from; love with “All for You” to social commentary with “The Awakening”. Motivational tracks like “The World is Yours” accompanies stories about relationships in “Pay Attention” a tribute to the ladies.

The title indeed befitting of the Royal siblings’ latest offering, is a 16-track musical journey that adhere and remain faithful to Morgan Heritage’s philosophy. “We chose the title “LOYALTY” because of how loyal we’ve been to the brand Morgan Heritage as a family, a band and group after so many years. Hence the reason we say Heritage 4 Life. As well as our loyalty to Reggae music while not being afraid to travel the journey of change through musical evolution.” – Morgan Heritage
