Morgan Heritage, will release their highly anticipated 10th album "Mission In Progress" on April 15, 2008.
Renowned worldwide for their riveting live shows, Morgan's Heritage's new release captures the band bottling the power of its stage performance on disc and infusing its songs with a heavier dose of hip-hop.
Produced by Morgan Heritage (with a few songs helmed by Shane Brown and Stephen McGregor son of reggae singer Freddy McGregor), �Mission In Progress� lyrically finds the group continuing their quest to bolster their love for reggae music through romantic, street-wise and conscious songs built on slabs of spirituality.
Musically however, the album is the realization of Morgan Heritage's "Rockaz" concept: reggae music with an edge.
The album's first single is "Raid Rootz Dance" a re-imagined and renamed cover of a Steel Pulse song ("Blues Dance Raid"). The release also features "Brooklyn and Jamaica," the group call's the first song to represent both the old neighbourhood and their home for the past 11 years: Jamaica. Other standout songs featured on the album include the straight-up romantic track "Love You Right," the sublime funk-fuelled anthem "Nothing To Smile About" and the golden jam "Faithful."
Comprised of five offspring of reggae veteran Denroy Morgan, Morgan features vocalist/keyboardist Una, vocalist Peter ("Jahpetes"), keyboardist/vocalist Roy ("Gramps"), rhythm guitarist Nakhamyah ("Lukes") and vocalist/MC/percussionist Memmalatel ("Mr. Mojo").
