Who are the Morgan Heritage?

Peetah Morgan, along with his siblings Roy “Gramps” Morgan, Mr. Mojo, Una Morgan, and Nakhamyah Morgan, formed the Morgan Heritage band back in 1994. Although some members eventually departed, the core essence of their music remained, captivating audiences across continents. In October 2015, the Morgan Heritage band graced Nairobi, Kenya, with sold-out concerts at the Kenyatta International Convention Centre (KICC) and the University of Nairobi, leaving an indelible mark on Kenyan reggae culture.

During their visit, the band expressed profound affection for Kenya, labeling it their second home after Jamaica. Peetah Morgan, born in New York but with deep Jamaican roots, articulated their collective sentiment of considering Kenya a cherished destination post-retirement. Their promise to relocate to Kenya and establish musical collaborations with local artists resonated deeply with fans, fostering a sense of camaraderie between the band and the Kenyan reggae community.

In a series of engagements during their stay, including participation in the “I’ve got 10 minutes, do you?” campaign, Morgan Heritage shared personal anecdotes and reflected on their journey to reggae stardom. Peetah and Gramps Morgan openly professed their adoration for Kenya, with Peetah affirming his intention to settle in the country after bidding farewell to the music scene.

Regrettably, Peetah’s unexpected demise has shattered the promise of their future plans in Kenya. The band’s vision to establish roots in the country, manifested through discussions of building a music studio and acquiring properties in Nairobi and Naivasha, now remains unfulfilled.

Despite the poignant turn of events, the legacy of Morgan Heritage’s connection with Kenya endures. Their music continues to reverberate through the hearts of fans, serving as a testament to the transcendent power of reggae and the enduring spirit of Peetah Morgan.

As the reggae fraternity mourns the loss of a beloved icon, let us remember Peetah Morgan not only for his remarkable talent but also for the dreams of unity and cultural exchange that he nurtured through his music.
