Tanya Morgan: Morgan Blu (feat. Blu)

I’m telling you, the new Tanya Morgan album is gonna be a huge contender for album of the year. I just can’t wait until May 12th, when it drops, so you all can hear this great album. This is the next track Tanya Morgan is pushing, featuring one of my favorite emcees, Blu.

It’s nice to know the pairing of Blu and Tanya Morgan happened organically. Ilyas, one-third of Tanya Morgan, says, “I used to write for Vapors Magazine and I had to interview Blu. I had just heard his album (Below The Heavens) while we were on tour and was blown away. Before and after the interview we chopped it up a bit on some personal shit. I holla’d at him later about the collab and he was down. At the time I had no idea that this collaboration would end up being on Brooklynati, but I’m certainly happy it is.”

The beat is classic Tanya Morgan, courtesy of Von Pea‘s production, complete with guitar loop, vocal chops, and swinging drums. Blu jumps off and Von Pea, Ilyas, and Donwill follow suit with stream-of-consciousness flows, flexing their lyrical dexterity and each displaying their unique styles. With Brooklynati Tanya Morgan takes listeners into their own world of rhymes, fun, and classic hip-hop, and “Morgan Blu” is an excellent example of what fans can look forward to this May 12th.
