notes

PJ Morton, a native of New Orleans, LA, most often describes his music as “feel good music that lyrically tells stories about life and love…music that makes your heart think. … He coins his style of music, ‘soulful pop’.” This 25-year old musical prodigy is indubitably a “true” seasoned musician who has garnered a reputation for writing and producing warm, heart-felt, and infectious songs that engage the heart.

His humble, yet aggressive spirit, along with his prolific musical talents has afforded him with many opportunities to “fall” comfortably into the music industry. With PJ's background in music, it is no wonder that he has found himself right at home in the music business. Coming from a musical background, PJ got his start singing in the church. He began to play the piano at the age of eight years old and by the age of 14, he was already writing and producing. His dream of becoming an artist began to take shape while he was in high school.

PJ's hard work and dedication to his craft is gaining him national and international notoriety in the music industry. PJ is a Grammy-award winning writer and producer who can be cited for writing and producing for a wide array of artists. His creative prowess allows him to cross all genres of music. He has worked with a range of noteworthy artists from India.Arie to gospel superstar Fred Hammond. He recently teamed up with super producer Jermaine Dupri to co-write for such platinum artists as Jagged Edge, Monica, Heather Headley and LL Cool J.

PJ just recently signed a publishing deal with Famous music publishing, the music publishing division of Paramount pictures. Having influences that range from Stevie Wonder to James Taylor, PJ reminisces on his childhood. “When I was younger, my mother would put on the Beatles and explain the songs … it made me focus on the writers. I’ve never been drawn to one style of music; it’s always been about the songwriters. That’s why Stevie Wonder, Paul McCartney, John Lennon, Sting and James Taylor touched me so … because of the songs.”

Because of the uniqueness of PJ’s music, one cannot place him in one specific category. He says it best by stating… “…Whatever genre you can stick Stevie Wonder or Sting in ….I’ll take that!” He has the necessary ingredients it takes to break new ground….to be a trailblazer! Without so much as a second thought, he will raise the bar in the industry!

If one had to use one word to describe him, it would be FREE, because he does not worry about much. In his own words, PJ sums it up…“I just keep moving, because I know that it’s not my fight anyway. So, I just do what I do and let God do the rest!!!”

  • Easy Listening!
    author: Amanee K Salahuddin

    I came across the CD riding in the car with a co-worker and found myself liking every song that I heard. The next day I ordered my CD and have started spreading the word about this amazing CD. Keep up the good work my Morehouse brother. Best wishes!

    PJ, you are such a great artist, it's the type of music I thought was lost. I thank God for the annoiting he has placed in your life. Stay humble and you'll go far. You are a very good looking fly nerd, I wish they all looked like you.

  • phenomenal
    author: W. Colclough

    I heard about him a little while back and soo glad I did. I listened to both his albums and I am in love with every song. He's so talented. I saw him perform in nashville not too long ago and I've never seen a live performance like that before. He's such a phenomenal performer and his lyrics are so real.

  • Insightful
    author: Kilolo

    I first heard P.J. Morton's music in the DVD Traci Townsend. At first I thought it was Stevie Wonder! But P.J. has his own unique style to be such a young man, he is extremely insightful! He has bought back a sound of such substance. His lyrics are just as inspirational as his music. This CD is a must have in your collection!

  • WOW, very-very nice.
    author: JAL
  • author: vel

    When I first heard a song from this CD played on Holistic Perspective.net I just thought it was wonderful and I have to say that I have been well pleased with it since I finally decided to purchase it. It is definitely one that you can just put in and let it play...every song is just AMAZING!!! Looking forward to hearing more.

  • Ab-so-lutely Fabulous ;-) The entire CD is Fab-u-lous
    author: Traci Vaughn

    I think this young man is a profound songwriter/performer. He has captured the essence of Agape love. The love that is perplexing and intoxicating for those two people who are on this life’s journey towards each other.

  • EXCELLENT
    author: L'Tonya

    THIS IS THE BEST CD THAT I'VE HEARD IN A LONG TIME.

  • It's a must have!
    author: Jocelyn

    This cd is all that I expected and more! If you love neo-soul it is a must have in your collection. And make sure you check out his new cd called "The Perfect Song".

  • Extremly Talented
    author: B.Taylor

    This cd is so refreshing real smove he got the whole soul vibe down pack I'm glad I bought it

  • Love the addition
    author: Noelle about Emotions Special Edition

    I had the first Emotions cd and recommended it to everyone that would listen. I pretty much had it with me all the time and it got broken in my purse which gave me a reason to buy the special edition and I love the two new songs just as much if not more than the original set!

  • PJ Morton is quite possibly the most talented EVER!
    author: Kyla

    This CD is a blend of the old school soul crooners, the sanctified gospel belters, the enchanting blues wailers, and the mellow neo-soul poetics that stir your soul...and touch you deep down to the essence of your being. One cannot usually expect such impact from one CD these days, especially with the over the top pop making of R&B, the demise of hip hop, and the overall homogenization of music overall. The usage of a live band is remeniscent of New Orleans, where Morton is from. Each song tells a story, an intoxicating tale of love and loss, of faith and fear, and of fantasy and reality. It is easy to get lostin each track. There is not one bad song on the CD, which makes for an uninterrupted, pleasant total playing time. This CD is a true classic, and is definitely the most slept on CD of the decade!

  • Good music to the ear...
    author: KaDarra Lowe

    Tells a love story that is relatable and believable... After attending a performance and listening to a few of Pj's hits on the CD, I had to get my own copy. You can clean your house to this one or follow the rhythym strait to your dreams...

  • I LOVE THID CD!!!!!
    author: Ivery L. Daniels

    I just wanted to say how awesome this CD is! I had the original CD, when a lot of people didn't know he was out. And I let a friend use it and NEVER got it back. I am SO VERY HAPPY to have found it again. I listen to it all day at work, at home, EVERY WHERE! Thanks PJ for being completely out of the box and showing that who you are is who you are, no matter who your family is. Love ya man!!!! Be good and keep doing your thing..... I know you will.

  • "Emotions" gives us what we've been missing!
    author: Marcus Cole

    From the first hypnotic beat to the last earthy ballad, it's fulfilling. I wore the last one out so I had to get another from you guys and you had it at my doorstep in a day. You must have known how anxious I was to get it. M. Cole is a fan

  • Awesome
    author: Tracie

    I heard of PJ through a friend and I decided to buy this CD. And I am glad I did. It is REAL awesome music!

  • One of the greatest artists of our time
    author: Tim

    I already owned Emotions, but I had to get the Special Edition once I heard the clip of Talkin' Forever. I place this album right up there with India and John Legend's latest projects as an instant classic. I am so moved and impressed by this work of art. PJ, you have EARNED a fan for life. This is real music right here!!

  • author: B.Simmons

    author: LW

    This CD is fabulous start to finish and is quickly becoming one of my favorites! It's a shame good music like this doesn't make it onto many mainstream radio stations...

  • WOW!
    author: krystal

    An addicting CD! The choruses are catchy, the beats are on point, and the voice is amazing! Best word to describe it is: pure! It's one of those CD's where you don't have to find the songs you like...each song holds its own. Major props...I'm spreading the addiction!

  • Young Stevie Wonder!!!
    author: Autumn

    This is album is impeccable!! You won't find one more creative, soothing & soulful!! I saw him live in Baltimore in November '06 and he far exceeded my expectations!!

  • PJ Morton, a Super Star in the making
    author: Will Saunders

    The creativity and originality of the Emotions CD is breath taking. From the first track to the last, this CD is remarkable. PJ Morton does an excellent job keeping the listener entertained with his smooth voice and music abilities. I highly recommend this CD, and I anxiously await his next CD, which should be out soon.

  • The radio made me buy it...

    author: Danno

    I think the title says it all. "Emotions" goes through a whole range of emotions! PJ Morton has truly made "Emotions" an album that everyone can relate. We've all have told our loved ones "I Need to Know" and we've ALL been so in love that we wanted to "Fly Away"! Peace and Blessings!

  • Radio why arent you playing this????
    author: MhicksJr

    I truly hope that you dont stop creating music. This was a great CD. Your use of lyrics as well as the music and use of horns and violins are greatly appreciated. Its a touch of neo-soul with a mix of old school. Ive shared your music with others who appreciate good music and they too agree"why havent we heared of him". Keep up the good work and looking foward to the next one.

  • Wicked Wicked Wicked
    author: Tom - UK England

    For my money, THE soul release of 2006 thus far. The horn section is fantastic and chilled, the lyrics are honest and well crafted and every song seems to have a great pop hook. PJ Morton definitely has a knack of getting the listener on his side. Time for you to join us.
