Gramps Morgan, born Anthony Morgan, came up as the lead singer of Morgan Heritage, the reggae band he formed with his brothers Peetah and Mojo in 1994. Their debut album 'Miracle' came out in 1999, and they followed it with records like 'More Teachings' and 'Full Circle'.
His solo work includes songs like 'Wash The Tears' and 'For One Night.' He grew up in Kingston, Jamaica, and his father Denroy Morgan was a reggae musician before him.
In 2011, the Jamaican government revoked his passport, which kept him from traveling internationally for a time. He had been critical of some government policies, and the move drew criticism from supporters.
Keep it compact: a lyric you come back to, a live memory, or the part of the catalog you would point someone toward first.
