Priel Morgan releases reggae remix of 'Fall Apart'

Priel Morgan, son of reggae veteran Gramps Morgan, is venturing into his family's signature genre with a new reggae remix of his R&B/soul song "Fall Apart." The track, originally featured on his 2024 EP "Growth," now gets a reggae makeover, marking Morgan's debut in the genre.

“

I wrote and produced Fall Apart, which is on my EP Growth. My dad and I produced the new reggae remix, and I can’t wait to share it with the fans.

"I wrote and produced Fall Apart, which is on my EP Growth. My dad and I produced the new reggae remix, and I can’t wait to share it with the fans," Priel shared in an interview. He explained that the song's inspiration stems from his personal life experiences, detailing a journey of youthful plans and future expectations that didn't materialize. "Through these experiences I’ve learned that not everything we plan for ourselves is what God has in store for us and we have to trust in His plan," he added.

The inspiration of this song is my personal life and experiences. It is me going through my journey as a young man and seeing my plans and what I thought my future was going to look like fall apart. Through these experiences I’ve learned that not everything we plan for ourselves is what God has in store for us and we have to trust in His plan.

Morgan, who has been making music for four years exploring R&B and pop, sees this reggae remix as a return to his roots. "To me, music is a feeling and genre and not just a colour," he stated. While he feels a responsibility to uphold and expand his family's legacy, he emphasizes that he faces no pressure. Instead, he feels the courage to follow his calling and present music that is "authentically me." His background in audio engineering, including mixing and mastering, allows him to produce, write, and mix his own releases, fostering a deep connection with listeners.

With this reggae remix, I am now reaching into my roots. To me, music is a feeling and genre and not just a colour.

A significant highlight for the 21-year-old artist was performing his original music alongside his family in Amsterdam. He described the experience at the iconic venue as a "full circle moment," having grown up watching his father and uncles perform there. Looking ahead, Morgan aspires to carry forward his family's legacy while broadening his music's global appeal and continuing his mission to heal through his art.

No, never any pressure, I would say I more so feel the responsibility and the courage to follow my calling that is music as well as upholding my family’s legacy and expanding that legacy beyond reggae music.
