Spinning around an airport lot doing donuts and rapping with the butterfly doors open, these to emcee's drop a visual with lyrics that draws on some of Texas' screwed up days, while capturing the best of the Bay Area's independent movement.




"I love the diversity we have in the Bay Area, there are so many different artists to look up to and find inspiration. The independent game is crazy and being raised in a region that helped push the independent mentality made it easy to make the decision to pursue a career in music," J Morgan said. "I've opened up shows for Ras Kass, The Jacka, San Quinn, Berner, Sellassie and Love Rance and it really helped me grow a fan base. I think I owe that to the music scene here."

Needless to say it's been a crazy year for J. Morgan despite the impact of COVID-19 he remained busy releasing two projects including Free Life.

The album is my 2nd project I have dropped this year and I’m currently working on a handful of solo songs," J. Morgan said. "I had shows booked for August, September and October in San Francisco and the Los Angeles area but everything was officially cancelled. Outside of that, I did a Facebook Live performance with Stevieboy Muziq and I’m currently working on some unique live stream events but in person shows are not something I wanna focus on until people start going back out and living normal."
