Then there was the quality of the production. This is an experience I want to take back to my industry as I work with act as a producer. I could just forget about everything and focus on what I was there to do… just be the artiste and be produced. Working on this album was so incredible and inspiring. “Not every artiste is a songwriter, and not every songwriter has what it takes to make it as an artiste. Morgan explained that for the first time in his career he allowed himself to be led, unlike previous projects in which he wrote and produced so many of the tracks. The truth is the Grammy Awards is not about the artiste’s popularity or album sales or how your video looks, as is the case with the MTV Music Video Awards, it’s truly about the quality of your body of work and this body of work is indeed special,” he said. “It’s great to be recognized by the academy. Positive Vibration -recorded in Nashville, Tennessee Toronto, Canada and Kingston, Jamaica - skillfully blends reggae and other genres of Jamaican music with the likes of country music to produce what Morgan calls a harmonious blend. I met songwriter Johnny Reid and he introduced me to the song People Like You and one song led to another song which led to a whole album and now it is nominated for a Grammy… I am so grateful,” Morgan continued. This pandemic forced me to look into myself.
“I want to tell you that this album came about out of pure innocence. I have had nominations and win before with Morgan Heritage, as well as a songwriter and producer, so this time, to be out there solo is different but something that I am so thankful for,” he told the Jamaica Observer during a telephone interview. “Of course, it is a little different this time around. The album goes up against five other albums in the Best Reggae Album category at the Grammy Awards set for the Arena in Los Angeles, California, on January 31. Reggae singer Gramps Morgan is reveling in the critical acclaim of his Grammy-nominated solo project, Positive Vibration, and described the making of this album as the best experience of his musical career.
