The Break Presents: Morray
All it takes is a nudge from the right person to change your life. Five years ago, Morray was recording music at his friends houses in his hometown of Fayetteville, N.C. Unfortunately, he wasn t really a fan of his own music at the time. Morray felt it didn t have much substance and didn t feel real coming from him. Seeing the kind of flashy rap that was (and still is) taking off in hip-hop, Morray thought he needed to emulate that style in order to gain popularity. That was until one revelatory night.
Earlier this year, Morray played a few of his songs for his wife. She told Morray that she liked the songs because he made them, but then she admitted that they weren t up to par because they didn t reflect who he was or his life in Fayetteville. The aspiring artist took that to heart and wrote his breakthrough single Quicksand in January of 2020, before officially releasing it on DSPs in late October.
