The musical journey of Jemere Morgan, the son of Gramps Morgan

Jemere means "wish come true," and if wishes come true, then Jemere is on his way to paving an exciting and successful musical career.  Jemere was born with music in his blood, his father is the legendary International Reggae Artist, Gramps Morgan. His Grand-Father, Denroy Morgan, who brought you the hit record “I’ll Do Anything For You,” topped all the Billboard charts in 1981. His success was so significant and impactful; consequently he was the first reggae artist to be signed by RCA a major record label. As you can see, Jemere is a direct heir of music.




His biggest musical influence comes from his father, Gramps Morgan, but also from Mario, Chris Brown, Otis Redding and India Arie. Through his father, Jemere is inspired to push his talent beyond boundaries. His Father drives him, supports him and is always there to lead him down the right path. Jemere adheres to his Father’s favorite quote which is "Respect and manners will carry you through the world."

While growing up, he fell in love with music when he went on the Van Warps tour with his father and his family for 7 weeks. Seeing his father and his band mates, Morgan Heritage, perform inspired Jemere so much that he knew that music was the only thing that he wanted to do with his life.

Jemere started out by rapping, but one day  his father heard him singing in the house and he told him that he has the voice of  a singer so he should be doing singing instead,and ever since that day he continues to sing.

What makes Jemere stand out from other Artists is his unique style of combining all types of genres in his music. He has recorded music that blends pop with reggae; and blends rhythm and blues with hip hop.

Jemere  recently toured with his Father, Gramps Morgan, on his European Tour which also featured his Uncle, Peetah Morgan from the reggae group ‘Morgan Heritage,’ he was the nightly opening act. This eye-opening experience was an exciting start for Jemere’s career as he was able to showcase his talents on an international stage. Jemere is on his way to having a successful career that parallels his father’s.

Jemere aspires to have a hit record in every genre, whether as an artist, producer or a writer. One of his favorite quotes is "Mom do I have to do the dishes?" His Mom would be proud to tell him no as he sets off on his musical journey.

Jemere  says he feels no pressure to live up to his family’s legacy. “My dream is to take what they set in the music business to another level, but at the same time it’s a real hard challenge to take on because Morgan Heritage is still growing till this day, so I’ll just trod on with my family to the top.”

16 year old Jemere is currently working in the studio on his EP and his first single "First Kiss" is now available on iTunes. His  two singles First Kiss and Sunshine Glow are both available  below or you can visit his  website www.jemeremorgan.com. "Like" him on Facebook or follow him on twitter
