Andrew Morris Jr is not your average kid on the block. This 21-year old Silver Spring, MD native is a fresh face to the music industry and has been working diligently to become a household name. However, his diligence just might pay off with the release of his highly anticipated debut mixtape, “The Gift”, in which Andrew has been working on for the last year. When speaking about how he got his start he explains, “I used to watch videos on MTV and always felt like, ‘I can do that’! I’d listen to Jay, Em, Andre (3000), and Pac and used to feel the honesty in their music. I’d listen to YouTube videos of instrumentals from my favorite producers like 9th (Wonder), Judah, illMind, Oddisee, Exile, M-Phazes and Just (Blaze) and just started writing. Now I can’t stop. I’m inspired all the time now”. The desire to be bigger than his body was fulfilled when Andrew found the love for Hip-Hop. His ability to express his emotions, dreams, and struggles using a clever sense of wordplay makes him the skilled lyricist he is today. His ability to articulate the perils of street life, the consciousness of a purist, and the ability to relate to his peers have allowed him to reach several different social groups and backgrounds. Having friends from preacher's kids,gangbangers to rich white kids allowed Andrew to explore different ways to speak to all types of people. Without any industry help or management, Andrew has continued to work hard to create a buzz for himself. It is a constant struggle for an artist to find himself, and while many get lost in the search, Andrew is proof that it is all possible with hard work and dedication. “I am my worst critic when it comes to following through on my goals in life. But I take that as a positive, because we all need polishing somewhere.” If you are interested in contacting him
