Morgan Heritage sparks conversation with latest single ‘Just a number’
Reggae group, Morgan Heritage, is set to release its new single “Just A Number” on January 27, 2023.
The song is produced by Kareem “Remus” Burrell.
Morgan Heritage is a 3-time Grammy award-winning reggae band currently comprising the Trinity; Peetah Morgan, Gramps Morgan, and Mr. Mojo Morgan.
They are children of the late reggae great and Father of A Nation, the Hon. Ras Denroy Morgan.
“Morgan Heritage and the XTM family have always had a connection. My dad Philip “Fatis” Burrell produced tracks for Morgan Heritage as well as their younger siblings LMS. I’m privileged to have produced this track “Just A Number” and I am really excited for its release” says Kareem ‘Remus’ Burrell.
“Just A Number” is an awareness anthem, which sparks the conversation around a much-needed topic surrounding the unfortunate reality of how one can jeopardize their legacy or financial accomplishments one has worked so hard to achieve because of something their personal views or opinions.
“Just A Number was inspired by historic and current figures in the entertainment industry. The song speaks directly to upcoming sports, film, tv, and music entertainers and anyone pursuing a professional career. We want to make them aware that they should not work hard and sacrifice all their lives to build a career and potentially lose everything overnight because of something you do or say. As students of history, we learned about brutal figures, and we’d like to start a conversation about today’s newsmakers and ensure the youths don’t make the same mistakes,” says Morgan Heritage.
Along with the release of its new single, Morgan Heritage is asking its fans input on which artwork they should use for their newest single “Just A Number”. As an incentive, everyone who votes will be placed into a drawing to win, free tickets to a show and/or merchandise bundle.
The group will select three lucky winners on January 26th, via their social media platforms.
