Morgan Heritage Pays Homage To African With Forthcoming Album “The Homeland”

Kingston, Jamaica.

Grammy award-winning reggae group Morgan Heritage which now includes Peetah Morgan, Gramps Morgan, and Mr. Mojo Morgan, announce their 19th studio album, The Homeland, set for release April 21.

The 21-track collection follows the bands last project Loyalty released in 2019.  This is the group’s first since the passing of their father Denroy Morgan’s last year. The project features a slew of reggae and African stars including fellow St. Thomas native Popcaan, Youssou N’Dour, Shaggy, Beenie Man, Shatta Wale, Mádé Kuti, and more.

In a release Morgan Heritage stated, “This album is a project of rebirth for the Morgan brothers, built upon a lineage that has lasted decades and one that will continue to forge forward.”

The Homeland kicks off a busy year for the St. Thomas group who will also appear at New Orleans Jazz & Heritage Festival and tour the globe later this year.


To accompany the album announcement, Morgan Heritage has shared lead afro-fusion single “Who Deh Like U” feat Bounty Killer, Cham & Stonebwoy, which debuted at #1 on the US iTunes Afro-Beat chart. “It’s hard to find anyone to compare to you.

Even from a million miles away your value will never diminish because you are so unique…” says Mojo Morgan about the meaning of the track.
“It will be hard to find another like you anywhere in the world.”

“ Who Deh Like U” follows their first single and video “Just A Number.” The track touches on cancel culture and the “ephemeral nature of fame.” The accompanying music video was directed by Samo (Koffee, Chronixx, Protoje), and filmed at Independence Park (National Stadium) in Kingston, Jamaica.

Later this month, Morgan Heritage will be at the GRAMMY Museum (at L.A. Live) as guests for The Drop Series on March 28. This is set to kick off reggae band’s global promotional tour, with planned stops in Los Angeles, New York, England, Germany, France, Uganda and Ghana.
